    I've never played this. Might be time to try it out.

    OOOO yes!

    I just wish Blizzard would partner with Steam.
    Ah well.

  • -3

    I cannot use my son copy to play … how bad.

    • I mean on the same computer.

  • This should be an Ozbargain team shootout, better than downvoting people.

  • Not sure PC, but on xbox you need a active xbox live subscription in order to play.

    • Same with PS4. You need to be on the Playstation Network.

    • +7

      with PC you just need to download the battle.net program to launch overwatch

    Any discounts after this?

  • I need healing!!!

    Cheers love!

    • PUBG is great,but Overwatch has more players

    • You're downvoted but you're right. Overwatch's competitive scene is completely awful and Blizzard has done very little to stop the festering mess of toxicity. A few high profile Overwatch streamers have left to stream PUBG.

      • They are trying, in fact they just addressed it in a developer update that rolled out reporting facilities to console. They also banned tens of thousands of cheaters and aggressive lunatics this week.

  • Thanks!

  • How big is the download?

  • +1

    ok i'll give it a shot, nothing will ever beat Quake 1 multiplayer though, so i'm preparing to be disappointed

    • +2

      that's probably nostalgia talking,

      iirc had to bind mouselook in quake? had good times in highschool computer labs (can't recall if there's a sprint, only recall that in doom sprint key made you zip around too quick).

      • +2

        Quake had bunny hopping.. it was like sprint but required skill.

        • +1

          that's it the game required skill, yet was so easy to get into as well

      • +1

        highschool labs were great with that game. wonder if you went to the same school or if this was a national thing lol

        • Can't recall the other staples - Liero was another one

          End of Year activities were some good times, besides playing Laser tag at DarkZone (box hill, VIC), next best thing to do was pick Computer Labs for lanning sessions I remember trying shared network copies of starcraft, warcraft 2.

          primary school was math circus (hah), and dink smallwood

        • @loke:

          Wow DarkZone in Box Hill brings back memories, that place is a blast. Way better than the Timezone laser tags.

        • @loke: I used to go to all night LANs in box hill playing counter strike

      • Have you not been playing games for so long that you aren't sure if mouse look caught on after Quake? :P

    There'll be an influx of smurfs so don't feel too bad if you're melted in 3 seconds, guys.

    • +1

      Smurfs are why i stopped playing, I don't have alot of time to play and quickplay is mostly bad.
      Having a grand master playing in diamond is no fun, then when they rank up they throw games to get back down so we lower levels get screwed both ways.

      Besides that it can be a great game, lots of fun.

  • how could you play competitive FPS with a joypad? lol do not play this unless it's the PC version

    • Have a look at Kephrii playing with a joypad on PC, he's still better than 90% of the players.

      • It's true though playing an FPS on a controller is a MASSIVE handicap regardless of how you feel about console VS pc etc

    • how could you play competitive FPS with a joypad?

      Please stop calling them joypad, sounds like a room at a brothel.

      • -1

        i wanted it to sound derogatory

    • I couldn't go back, but it's fine, just not as precise.

    • You hold it and press the buttons that correlate with what you want them to do, use the sticks to move and aim etc…
      It's very simple.

  • -2

    is this game raped with hackers like csgo or no?

  • what are the times? is it 12am Friday to 11:59pm Monday?
