Am I the only person on the planet that hates online multiplayer lol :disappointed:

same price at amazon now..... in case anyone prefers it.

Nope, me too. I pretty much avoid any games without a single player campaign nowadays.

I haven't enjoyed multiplayer gaming online - despite trying - I just find it frustrating as it seems EVERYONE is better than me. I have just about got my bearings after re-spawning, only to find myself dead again.

The last time I did enjoy it was probably Duke Nukem 3D or Quake 'Multiplayer' in the office, many years ago.

This is still £24.99 in store. Can it stop being expired please until it is actually expired?

Whoever edits the titles does a terrible job.

Amazing game and great deal.

Out of stock for Xbox one:(

​XO and yeah, we got EA Access, I'll have a look. Only had it so I can sell his SW Battlefront. Lol
He liked the cartoony-animation of Overwatch and I don't want physical as we got an 11 month old that loves biting and standing on the boxes. :neutral_face:

What platform? Also if your 6 yr old likes this I definitely recommend Plants vs Zombies Garden Warfare 2 for him/her

Where's the cheapest digital for this?
Played the free weekend and seemed okay, even my 6 year old likes it.

For those on the fence there is a free weekend coming up on PC,PS4 and Xbox one. http://www.hotukdeals.com/freebies/play-overwatch-free-november-18-21-xbox-one-pc-playstation-4-2543649

Had some reward points for Game so ordered on there thanks op

bought this on pc a while ago.. hardly touched it though... just couldnt get into it.. plus the fact that no one was using team chat on the pc...just seemed like team fortress
only ever play Destiny tbh multiplayer wise now.

Best FPS since COD: MW and TF2 for me. Not had this much fun on a shooter for that long. Bargain at this price.

This game will have serious legs for years to come.

Looks like it's gone at amazon for ps4

Thanks for the post. Ordered for my son as he's been waiting for this to come down in price for a while...

Amazing price. Brilliant team work orientated game.

I feel the same. I hate the current obsession with online multiplayer. I don't have time to play 18hrs a day and aim like an eagle eyed ninja. It's just too much hassle.

Ordered, thanks! :smile:

You've got to be kidding me. Best game of the year imho. Haven't purchased a single game since this game came out its that good!!

ps4 back in stock now :smiley:

Generally true but it can depend on the game. Titanfall for example has huge amounts of aim assist with a controller even on pc they had a console pro vs pc pro exhibition and it was a 50/50 depending on the map.

In Overwatch there's no aim assist on pc even for controller. Blizzard balanced the game separately for pc and console given it's much easier to aim on pc using a mouse. But with the league being about esports money ofc it's PC based the skill ceiling is just higher once you remove the aim bot. The min specs for Overwatch on pc are really low though a 2008 AMD processor and low end 2012 Nvidia or AMD graphics cards will do it. The game is very well optimized.

For people worried about getting killed online. The time to kill in this game is much longer than call of duty or battlefield. There are heroes where you don't need to aim at all basically just face in the right direction e.g. winston, symetra, mercy. The matchmaking will automatically put you against people of the same skill. Given the ridiculous number of people playing this game there are plenty of low skilled players :smiley:. Lots picked this up as their first fps because Blizzard. At my skill level you are way more likely to see this or worse as the norm.

It's basically a TF2 clone with elements of MOBA gameplay (with the cooldowns, ultimate abilities, and different "champions"). They found a niche in the FPS market. It's not really for everyone.

Personally, I think actual MOBA games are miles better (e.g. League of Legends) but to each their own.

Of course, applies to any FPS game. KBM is far superior and precise than controller sticks.

I heard Blizzard are including a LGBT character in this game. Guess it means new different kind of overwatch pron by them excellent animators :smile:

same here. tried it once, never bothered again.
but great price! heat added

Many thanks OP, superb find, showing £30 plus used on eBay.

Shame consoles won't be part of the upcoming league. Good price for just pottering around on the couch but if you want to play it seriously PC is the only way.

Cheers OP ordered

tempting price but going to resist. have BF1 coming tomorrow so don't think I can fit two online multiplayer into my spare time!

Nope.

PS4 copies are still in stock on Amazon for the same price!

Yes, I just did that myself in a Nottingham store.

You're able to check yourself by going to the product page and using the instore stock checker

Is the PS4 still at £24.99 for instore purchases?

The base game is 399ARS on PC for an Argentinian battle.net account. Or at least it was in August. No VPN required and it's all in english. Works out at roughly £21.45 at todays exchange rate.

I don't hate MP, it's just not for me.

I'm the sucker who bought Titanfall 2 just for the campaign :smiley:

GAME selling something for less than other retailers, never thought I'd see the day

Probably the best multiplayer shooter this year and one that will continue to be played for a while. The population is only growing and for good reason. It had 7 million players by the end of its launch week in May and was up to 20 million early October.

Blizzard are also constantly releasing new content(heroes, maps and modes for free). No season pass shenanigans splitting the population.

For newbies unitlost has some pretty good content if his voice doesn't annoy you. And there are the r/overwatch and r/overwatchuniversity communities on reddit. r/Overwatch apparently has over 76 million subscribers now so they are fairly active.

I don't particularly mind on-line Multiplayer. My issue is that I have so little time for gaming, that I'm pretty much always the worst person playing - which then puts me off playing at all. I really like the look of Overwatch, but frankly there's just no point.

It's alright, I played it for a while on PC and PS4. Its no Battlefield 1 though...

Do you game share with him?? If so, download can sometimes work out cheaper?

Great game, and lots of little communities out there on the internet to get involved with if you get bored of playing solo/want to have more team-orientated play, whether competitive or for fun.

Yeah you can, there should be a barcode on the wallet section of the app when signed in that you use. You don't need the card anymore if they're linked

Sigh. You people never cease to amaze me.

It's still in stock on Xbox and Instore for 24.99. Anyone with a half functioning brain could check that before expiring this

Can I redeem points off my Game app instore? Lost my reward card but it won't arrive in time for this offer.

price has gone back up

Got one from Amazon, Thanks for posting

Had a £10 voucher for Amazon so why not? :smiley: Cheers OP

Showing £35 for me?

There are plenty of cooperative online games out there. I still play Mass Effect 3's multiplayer, which is a cooperative wave-based mode. I've never been much of a fan of competitive multiplayer either, but there are so many other options these days.

Great game, great price. Bought it on release and haven't put it down since.

Picked up a copy in store, posters in window advertising it at £24.99, was expecting my crappy store to still be charging £50.

Not a multiplayer fan but going to give it a whirl.

Out of stock at Game but available same price on Amazon

We are each different. For example, £20 to me seem fine for the fact there is no single player aspect to this game. I would never pay the £55 RRP they were asking for, that's a stupid amount for it. I love Single Player games, just spent hours on end (don't want to look becuase it's a lot) addicted to Witcher 3 and not done with it yet. I do like easy pick up and play games, where I can jump in, play for 20-30 minutes then put down, especially socially with me brother and/or friends. No matter how much i play Dragon Age Inquisition or Witcher 3, can't do that.

Thanks OP,

Ordered 2, one for me and one for my bro for xmas :smile:

same price at amazon now..... in case anyone prefers it.

I have to say that I was of the same mind as you, I got Star Wars battlefront for Christmas and pretty much gave up on it after being repeatedly killed by people who were far better than me and equipped with better gear to boot.
As a result I was very skeptical about Overwatch, as I assumed it would be the same - until I played the beta.
The good thing with overwatch is that even in the casual "quick play" mode, there is a matchmaking system which ensures that you are placed with players of a similar skill level to you. If you win a few games on the spin you may find yourself placed against better opponents, and vice versa.

There is also a very useful online community to provide support and strategy - youtube is particularly useful.

Got £26 trade in at game for this on sunday after they beat cex trade in price by a £1. Which is no to bad after buying it for my son for £35 from tesco a couple of months ago. he played it for about 2 hours all in. absolute dyer game. but each to there own.

There it is, my price, plus £5 credit from game and £20 done.

Wow great price, was difficult to find it for less than £35 not long ago.
Fantastic game, just really fun.

Am I the only person on the planet that hates online multiplayer lol :disappointed:

Blizzard are currently publicly testing a new hero and a whole new arcade system with new maps and game modes. 1v1 mystery hero is fantastic and tense

Don't forget, there is no paid DLC for this game - all the new heroes, maps, modes and continued balancing/support from the developer is free.
They pay for this by selling "loot boxes" which give you cosmetic items to change how your character looks, but you can earn these in game anyway, and they do not have any impact on gameplay.

I agree with Marmaluke as well - there is an amazing amount of depth in this game as you learn each character and the full extent of their kit.

Picked this up on PS4 about a week ago. Seems fun and a bit different, the characters are awesome. But, I can't figure out how to play any type of game other than one fairly samey mode of "escort the payload/limo/truck"...

I only really get exclusives and non-shooters on the PS4, wondering whether to get this on PS or PC

I've got it on PC. It's a very enjoyable game. Heat added :smile:

Finally a good price cheers

excellent price didn't expect this game be reduced yet (just bought on ebay), now just need GTA V come down

Bought, thanks OP :wink:

GOTY here, well worth this price

Overwatch for under £25? That's a great way to keep the kids happy at christmas (even big kids :smile:).

Hot deal.

HOT

Been waiting for this. Awesome! Heat :smiley:

Amazing game fantastic price

game is really gud.alot of fun heat added

How long is this £25? Till after the weekend?

i thought i was good at this game, then i joined a competitive playlist.....:disappointed:

Was waiting for a deal after being hooked during the free weekend - can't resist at this price.

Great price. Good time for newbies to jump in prior to the new season & update.

Any idea of this is in store too?

Great price, wish it was this cheap on PC!

Would someone kindly upload a picture for me please? It's a nightmare trying to do it on this phone!
