All the new Characters will be missing for the next 3 weeks. I wish they would add them
NOOOOO It’s OW 1.0 based on May 2016 patch
Not a big fan, but I’m happy to see it again, and of course for all the Tanks; any whinners too xD
Question:
Would it be cool if for the duration of the 3 weeks, we saw different stages of the game? Like for each week a different version of the game
Kinda like a guided tour for how the game has evolved xD
