meanwhile I’m watching zbra play in the same region with 20+ minute tank queues…
So every second battle pass is fairly priced then? Seems odd if you ask me but okay.
11 loot boxes was $9.99 in OW1. 4 Items per box x 11 boxes = 44 items.
The $10 battlepass currently has 83 items if you don’t count the tiers past 80. If you subtract the 20 free items, you have 63 items.
Therefore, the Battlepass is not only fairly priced due to the absurd shop prices, it also is actually MORE generous than OW1 loot boxes at the same price. And you know what you are buying in the Battlepass ahead of time.
Yes, the shop prices are absurd and I won’t spend a dime in the shop. And no, heroes should not be in the battlepass. However, the Battlepass is fairly priced at $10 and I will likely buy it more often then not.
I’m not buying it because of the Heroes in it. It buy it because it is the only reasonably priced way to get cosmetic stuff in this game.
Heroes should not be in the pass, but not buying it won’t change that since they are in the free version of the pass.
Because mid-ELOs aren’t the only ELOs.
Also because they’ve achieved the lower matchmaker times by having loose matchmaker quality.
And considering the topic of the current post. Tank queue times certainly aren’t going to be reasonable when that new Tank hero comes out.
But you got boxes for just leveling in OW1.
They can still just put the pass up for $10 as an option to choose from.
A new hero is always exciting. Shakes things up a bit and gives players more variety. Hopefully they prioritize getting more tanks and supports before more DPS heroes. Like maybe 2 tanks, 2 supports for every 1 DPS.
