I know I got into the weekend events via a friend but hopefully it will transfer to normal access at some point because doubt I will spend much time with this over the weekend with Fallout calling my name anytime I even attempt to play this.

Wow, I actually got in the stress test. I am amazed. I immediately went to their forums to check if it was permanent access and It wasn't.

I'm assuming the client is crashing on start due to the stress test not being active yet?

Hmm not sure, mine launches fine, but I played before so it might be that. I did read I think that the game only runs on 64bits OS so if you have a really old windows, you might be fucked unless you install a new one. That said it could be something else too I don't know.

Initial impressions: it's like a worse TF2 with insanely tiny maps, guns with no feedback at all, almost purely based on team/class synergy and not fps skill.

Pretty much confirmed that Blizzard, despite wanting to make an FPS, don't know how to make an FPS. Top tier waifus though!

My impressions as well. Very pretty, but didn't feel very satisfying. I know Valve doesn't give a shit about their design philosophy when it comes to identification of TF2 classes, but this takes the cake. The amount of onscreen popups and text so you can actually recognize stuff is staggering.

Mine is some kind of PC issue, the forums says it means I do not have SP1 (Which I do). I guess it's time to upgrade to windows 10.

Having a blast. Though can see why they need these betas still. Constant DCs between matches and long periods of "finding players".

meh, not impressed.

Way to much graphical shit on the screen for me to tell what is even happening.

It's the stress test so obviously matchmaking/connectivity is getting the shit kicked out of it. I'm in the true beta and rarely if ever get disconnected.

I felt the same way at first Hekotat but after you play a bit and learn all the heroes (classes? champions? avatars?) it starts to make a bit more sense.
