Cool, nice and amazing Hope the twitch wont lag as fuck, so I can enjoy the virtual ticket I bought. Actually I don't even know if it's gonna be hosted by twitch.

(Assuming they're gonna tell more on Blizzcon)

They changed the game title again? I hope you enjoy playing.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Blizzard DOTA, Blizzard All-Stars, and now Heroes of the Storm, yes they changed it again.

I hope so too ^^

 

[PurgeandFire]

I'm glad they changed the name. Even though it was a tribute to DotA, it was an odd name to have.

 

[Awsan]

The name doesn't really matter for me c:. Hope the game will be good.

Yup, that's the thing what matters If they have the same concept as for Blizzard DOTA, where it's simple, simple meaning items aren't nerdish fuck, I might enjoy it. You need to be a fucking awful geek to enjoy MOBA's at the moment, I hate it. Change it Blizzard, please.

 

[chobibo]

I always hated denying creeps on DotA, specially on my lagging network connection, I hope this one isn't about pro gamers.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Oh, it seems like they updated the site, better update your beta preferences

 

[MortAr]

Game will be awesome. Personally I really can't wait to get into the beta and start playing.
Here's the gameplay videos from the Blizzcon if someone missed them.

PS: Diablo, mounted up riding a freaking unicorn. Fuck yeah.

@Chobibo - the other MOBA's weren't for pros at start too (they aren't really even now), it's just the players that make it look like it's only for pros... As long as a game becomes a venue for competitions players will make it look like it's for pros...

You need to be a fucking awful geek to enjoy MOBA's at the moment,

Not really, you just need to have enough knowledge to at least know how to work things out... Seriously, it gives you the freedom to make your own strategy... if you don't want games that need you to think, better play fighting games and button mashers...

but really, why do they change titles so much...

@Mortar - really? that's really AWESOME!

Got some really cool art and champions.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

Was that intentional or leaked?

 

[Razosh]

It does not seem to be a leak but rather something Blizzard has willingly shared.

 

[Dr Super Good]

Well seeing how the game will be free to play and has no storyline to leak, I doubt Blizzard cares much. People cannot play it anyway as they cannot log in (only Friends and Family accounts have it activated). They will likely closed/open beta it soon anyway.

Yea, considering the trailer they put out and the large desire from the gamers I don't think they will be abandoning this project anytime soon.

That sounds good. I can't wait to play this. And I hope that no abandoning will occur here.

If you're a Diablo III lover and willing to pre-purchase their D3 expansion from their store, you'll get Valla the Demon Hunter in heroes of the storm: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/blog/13032539/

 

[Dr Super Good]

All those pre-purchase bonuses are dumb. They should at least give them to you for buying it in the first week of release from the shops.

 

[Deleted member 219079]

They want you to buy the game before it gets any negative reviews, obviously ^^

 

[Razosh]

Tech Alpha went live today. All the streamers online streaming it can be found here:
http://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/Heroes of the Storm

If you have bnet account on US you might get chosen in.

Personally: I just wanna play this now, not to wait for ages oh well, gotta make dem 100 accounts on us now...

Edit: Based on what I've seen this far, I think it needs more colorful environment. Even better if you could choose your own gamma and contrast at the options menu.

That's dumb.

It seems all you need is to waste your life streaming and boring people with rubbish and you get into all alpha/betas now...

 

[Razosh]

That's dumb.

To be fair we Europeans did get the avengers early even though one of the main protagonists was Captain America, still this is dumb I'll have too agree.

It seems all you need is to waste your life streaming and boring people with rubbish and you get into all alpha/betas now...

But to be fair it's the well known streamers that deserve to get this since the game will reach out to more people then, it's a marketing strategy and a smart and fair one at that.

 

[Razosh]

Guess who's going for this skin.
