Same here. Blizzard's game don't usually have any appeal to me whatsoever but the beta for this one has me well and truly hooked. :smiley:

Contact them.
I did and they told me that either they refund me or I have to wait 1-4 weeks for a key.

I haven't recieved my code either, I get the feeling this is a really bad site to suggest on HKUD.. i've seen nothing but complaints on reviews and internet opinions about this place.

I haven't received an email. Does this mean I should receive my key or should I try process a refund?

I just went for the standard version at £27 so in some ways this has actually saved me money. :smiley:

Well, you get some skins as well but tbh they don't even look that good, I'd probably use other ones as soon as I got them.

If you want the Origins edition then yeah but otherwise Blizzard sell the standard version for £30. As someone who doesn't own Diablo, WoW or StarCraft, the Overwatch edition is of very little use to me tbh.

i just bought it from cd keys with the discount code for 34 unfortunate but hey still cheaper than buying from blizzard right

Just don't get Origins edition unless you really want it I suppose.

I didn't need Origins edition at all, I was just getting it for the sake of it really.

GamesDeal processed my refund request within roughly 20 minutes which you really can't fault. I've noticed that it's a bit cheaper on some of the foreign Blizzard stores like £27 (US) or £25 (KR). I wonder if it's possible to buy it from one of those. AFAIK only the Chinese versions are region locked.

welp rip lads now the price are so high....

Yeah I'll cancel as well. That's a shame but at least they admitted it ahead of time I suppose.

Cancelling the order as well. Bit of a shame really, but whatever. It's £29.99 on battle.net with just the widowmaker skin.

Also just got this email. Going to cancel, that sucks.

Just got an email saying Gamesdeal have a problem with their supplier and can't issue a code for 1-4 weeks. Shame...

i liked the beta, i just can't bring myself to pay £30 for something that everyone else is giving away for free

CDKeys might be the cheaper option now, I'm not too sure. The prices are definitely going up though.

played the beta last night, beautiful, fluid, typical flawless Blizzard. However, I'm mainly a single player gamer so doesn't float my boat.... this is for the multiplayer crowd only. despite its beauty, it seemed a bit generic, but that might because you need to be in proper teams etc to get into its depth. anyway, it's Doom for me :smiley: (for the SP).

thanks op, price went up slightly to £31ish but still decent price :smiley:

I have to say the optimisation on this game is amazing. Only the Xbox one port has any technical issues of the three apparently and even those are pretty minor.

I guess it did have to be pretty well optimised since a huge part of Blizzard's user base are in China but even so, they did a brilliant job.

Look like the price has gone up?
£32.38 -7% +4% = £31.31

It's extremely polished. It's Blizzard looking at Team Fortress 2 and it's lessons learned, and thinking "We can make that PERFECT!"

It purrs like a kitten on an old quad-core AMD and a GTX 960. It's gorgeous.

Controller players, as someone else said, can use a character whose weapon doesn't need accuracy. Symetra might be a good choice too if you like support. That's a decent trick against zippy players like Tracer too.

The open beta is free to everyone until tomorrow. (Including console players.) I'm loving it, but I'll get it at launch.

No, think more along the lines of TF2 with more defined character roles. The diversity of a small MOBA with the gameplay of a decent FPS. I'm in.

Is this a FP MOBA? it looks like one. Lots of chaos going on and people just constantly cycling through skills. It looks no fun.

There's no aim assist on PC so it's damn tough with a controller. I did ok with solider 17? or whatever his number is but mainly stuck to mercy the healer or the fat guy roadblock? Their aiming reticles are pretty huge.You can forget about using widowmaker, hanzo, or genji on the PC with a controller. Unless you're an absolute demon I cant see how its feasible to play those chars with a controller.

I'm guessing we get the wings with the release of the game? You can only get them now if you pre-purchase from battle.NET?

Cheers for the answer :smiley:

I had a bit of a play, so this is only first impressions and I'll give it a chance.

It seems a bit.... generic. The gameplay is very consistent and done well, it's polished and well made, the characters have enough difference about them to be fun but overall... it doesn't really feel like it stands out that much.
Maybe bigger health bars and less binary outcomes so there's a bit more room for tactics and strategic play?
It's otherwise very pretty and "nice" but... I can't say I'm blown away by it.
If it had a more "novel" gameplay mode, something to make it stand out. It's currently a rather "me too" cartoony, character based FPS.

E.g: Stealing somewhat from WoW PVP - there's 3 "flags", holding them gives points, holding more than 1 at a time on a character gives more points, makes the characters weaker over time (and maybe puts some visual aid on the map to their location). It'd be something different at least. I get this is meant as a "moba-fps cross" so characters are intended as hard counters but spammy FPS play is a bit too frantic for that to shine through properly. It needs game modes that slow it down a TINY bit and make it have a touch more depth.

Will play it a bit more tomorrow and see if I can find a suitably baited hook to bite down on. I've not been overly enamored by it though.

Yes.

Question, do we get the Diablo wings etc with this buy?

There is more effective team work at higher levels. High level players are also smarter about picking heroes that fit with the others.

good deal ordered thanks op

That's the one. I guess if they haven't cancelled your order though then you should be OK.

Fair enough. Personally, I find MOBAs as dull as dishwater but everyone is different I suppose.

More a MOBA player. I have no problem with the realism, I just don't seem to find the matches particularly engaging. Beautiful, quick but meaningless. I don't see any teamwork at the levels I'm playing. No effort to coordinate player picks, etc. Everything just seems like more of the same.

​Shame really as ive had nothing but positive things from them.

Cheers for making me spend more money on games! Damn it :wink:

Oh poo, was that what called me after I placed my order? I saw it was from New York and thought "probably some scam thing" and left it. Wonder how to tell them now... :S

cant get the discount link to work, says it's expired

I was doing the same thing :smiley:

Tbh I tried the beta of battleborn though and didn't like it at all and it seems to have tanked in first week sales.

Good price, but there doesn't seem to be an awful lot of chatter regarding the legitimacy of this website? I just about trust CDKeys/Instant Gaming, but these key sites seem to sprout up by the dozen...

Yeah I bought it on a whim last Sunday for £25.64 from CDKeys.
Didn't know a lot about it but it looked very polished. I've been confusing it with Battleborn for months! :stuck_out_tongue:

Beta seems pretty good so no regrets.

very fun game, its quite good if you want to play for a casual knock about as there is nothing excruciating painful to progress to or unlocks that take years. love the beta the maps and characters are beautiful!

People preordered the witness?

Good deal, heat added. I'm really looking forward to Overwatch.

But if we keep buying pre-orders, PC gamers are going to continue suffering from the same bull from the gaming media and the same bull from devs. Something has to change.

I'll get it after release, assuming that it's not broken at launch. One hopes that these guys won't pull an EA on us, but I'm not gambling £30 to find out.

Price has been going up for months. It was about £20 five months ago at cdkeys and it's been steadily rising since then.

People who think this will be £20 within a month of release are delusional.

It will be 20 quid a month after release.

Pre-ordered it direct from Battle Net for a lot more, damn :neutral_face:

Pretty much same price at G2a, use code SQRL for a small discount.

I saw a few people commenting above that they are hooked... am I the only one not enjoying this game?

This is probably obvious but I'll ask anyway. Would I get slaughtered if I used a Xbox One controller?

I love this game, and some funky wings for my old diablo chars sound cool. Heat.

games deal are know to scam since they're associated with a wow gold trading company. Many complaints if you look online.

Great find, this one really is the cheapest. G2A seemed cheaper, but the 20% tax kills it.

discount count received from their facebook page does nothing to the price on their website when trying to purchase. dafuq?

I'm strangely enjoying this too (personally thought I wouldn't like it)

will be picking this up though. Cheers op :P

Loving the beta, shall pic this up. ty op. :smiley:

The origins edition offers a few character skins for overwatch, wings for diablo and items for other blizzard games. Nothing that would make you pay extra for really, but the normal version either isn't sold or is the same price so it's best to get this one, heat.

Oddly, Origins Edition is actually the same price. I'll update the OP. :smiley:

http://www.gamesdeal.com/overwatch-origins-edition-pc-eu.html

Just looked and it looks like its a few different things from diablo and such, nothing special.

What does the Origins Edition include? Is this the cheapest place for that too?
