Winter event has a battle pass now?

is it like a normal battle pass where if i upgrade to premium later i get all previous tickets?

Who knows? It looks like if it’s week 2 and you buy the premium pass you would, but that’s just me taking a guess and would it surprise me if that wasn’t the case at all? Not one bit.

that would be annoying. I’m just waiting to see how much the Mercy and Winston skins are first before I get it.

Mercy will be releasing on 26th so then the first week will be done ^^

Mercy and Winston aren’t part of the event pass.

No I’m aware. I just might not buy the premium depending on the price of the skins.

That’s what I’m worried about. If I buy premium in week 2, do I get week 1 tickets still assuming I completed it?

This is a load of crap! How money grabbing is this game.

Just stop giving them money altogether, man. It’s the only way this garbage ever stops or changes. STOP.

lol get a grip . . .

Sure, get a grip, whatever you want to call it. Just stop rewarding this monetization system.

You need to get a grip. Or a job, whatever you want to call it.

Personally I will buy skins if I like them and can afford them because I want Overwatch content to keep coming for years. If you don’t care about the game, then play a different game, or stop complaining about a F2P game’s monetization. Your argument literally makes no sense.

Makes sense if you’d like to see industry standard pricing go down instead of up. Unfortunate you can’t see that.

You know what’s sad though? Halo Infinite also has an event BP for their Winter Event…but get this; it’s completely free for 42 days. You can of course choose to buy the premium for $5 (the BP only has 20 tiers compared to the normal 100) which really only gives you a 4th weekly challenge slot so you can level up faster by completing one more challenge each week at the same time. Or, you can buy the ultimate premium pass ($20 I think?) which unlocks everything for you.

Otherwise? You can literally just play and unlock it the normal way, no cash needed.

Which, while I hate the BP craze everyone seems to be going on, is a lot less egregious than the crap that Blizzard is doing. As long as I can just play to earn it, I’m content.

I used to play Clash of Clans but I’m still in my clan and there’s a separate $5 pass for the holiday season also. Must be a thing among live service games.

that’s really not how it works. Unfortunate for you that you can’t see that, not for me.

Halo is not half as popular as Overwatch.

Well you’re certainly the demographic.

$5 for 4 of the 5 FOMO skins or $35 if you want all 5.

Uhm… Sorry I meant $35 + playing games to get all 5 skins :joy::skull:
