Worst part is the wording makes it sound like theyā€™re not afraid to lock live content behind the battlepass

Yep, the where so vague with the presentation. They can put anything behind the $30 premium battle pass even PVE content.

124

You two still dont understand and I am really sorry but this does not change the fact. I am to 100% sure there will be no discount and it will not change. This topic is stupid and if you think about it you know it.

Its simple that question:

Is it worth 40 bucks for you?

If the answer is no THEN DONT BUY IT!

Why do people have a problem with that. GOD!

125

Whats worth it to me is the Beta that is now essentially locked behind this $40 pay wall. I dont want to buy overwatch 1 again, make it 30 for people who already have the legendary edition and it will be more worth it for me.

I have been doing this for five yearsā€¦

ā€¦seriously though, its my goal to make sure you all have the details so you all can make the best decision based on your needs. And yes, I am passing on the sentiment about not having a discounted version for pre-existing Overwatch owners. I donā€™t think anything will change, but this feedback is important as they continue to rollout the launch of the game.

I am going to go AFK for a bit as I have a personal project I wish to get back to work on. Thanks for your patience as I worked to get what information that I can.

Wow, already slapping our wallets before the game is even out with the greedy ā€œgames as serviceā€, microtransaction cash grab model.
Longtime owners and players of Overwatchā€¦ now YOU can PAY Forty Dollars to play the beta of the FREE game! And hereā€™s a couple skins and a dumb icon so you donā€™t feel swindled by the brilliant new Activision approved model!

This is what Overwatch and Blizzard is now. Awesome :roll_eyes:

Been like this for a while? Most blizzcon ticket skins are exclusive to the ticket holders. Only 1 wasnā€™t which was the Demon hunter sombra that was added to the game for everyone later.

133

This makes me sad as I REALLY want them to adopt the Halo Infinite battle pass systemā€¦

itā€™s worth saying that this is a common dishonest marketing tactic. itā€™s not possible for something included with a purchase to be a ā€œfree bonusā€. It comes with the purchase, youā€™re paying for it, therefore it is part of the price. any discussion of what ā€œmakes up the priceā€ is arbitrary - you still have to pay for it to own it.

plusā€¦ up until this very moment, you could still buy overwatch on blizzard shops. itā€™s still being sold, the founderā€™s pack exists to compensate players who already paid for the game before, so naturally, if we spend the money to buy it again like in this bundle, there should be compensation again. if something is part of a bundle, it is part of the price, and removing it means removing its part of the price as well.

You buy the pack for the things you get in OW2.

Beta = you can get other ways in

OW1 = you already own it so why should you care

THEN JUST DONT BUY IT! How hard is this to get across. If you dont see the value ignore it.

136

Because every one got pissed that a crossover skin was getting tied to a Blizzcon ticket when the previous crossover skins got released into the loot pools, and then the previous two years skins were gawdy gold and blue skins with Blizzcon stamped on them and they were still exclusive but no one cared because they werenā€™t that special looking.

137

the point is that people see the value in the parts of the pack that they donā€™t already own, and want to purchase it without being charged to receive nothing.

Iā€™d even take it if the copy of legendary edition becomes a gift copy if you already own it, but it doesnā€™t- it becomes nothing.

So because some of them were free, all of them have to be free?
