Heroes of the Storm

Thanks.

I'm actually very tempted to purchase the Founders Pack tonight. It's Blizzard so I can see me really enjoying this game.

How long on average do games last? Will my Winged Guardian that I bought in WoW be available to use in HoTS? The items included in this Founders Pack, can all these be purchased separately ingame?

Oh and is the game graphically more demanding than LoL? I have a 980, so maxed shouldn't be a problem with this game at 1440p?

Soon a small batch of current beta testers will receive 4 keys to send to people, it will be random though.

Games last anything from about 12 mins up to 30.

Google the current character selection to see whats available.

Everything bar a few skins and mounts can be bought with either gold or cash. Also there is a weekly free rotation of characters to try, always worth getting them up to level 5 for the 500g you get.

980 will hit over 100fps at 1440p as thats what i use.

As above the founders pack isn't great for the money but it does get you in the game. The Nexus pack when you have a key is much better.
 
I'm struggling to find a hero I can really enjoy getting burst DPS on. I've got Illidan to level 7, absolutely love his mobility, love darting around and stuff, but still just not enough burst. Either that or I'm playing him wrong...

Any other options? I like high mobility and burst DPS.

Valla is good all round, personally love Zeratul. Good DPS late game, cloak but is squishy.
 
Ok I caved in.... call me all the names under the sun if you must :p.

I've been watching some streams on Twitch and asking questions. The game seems really fun and with this game being shorter in gameplay time (the long ass games in LoL won't be missed! I did actually spend money in LoL too, so this isn't really much different).

I purchased the Founder's Pack... sure I could have purchased a key a hell of a lot cheaper, but with this atleast it gets me to a rolling start with some extras. Also means I'm putting money directly into Blizzard's pocket rather than people selling just the key to make profit (on what I presume they received for free!).

I'll see how these characters go with a couple of games, then I think I'll purchase the Nexus pack :p

Anyone can add me on battle.net - Spacedeck#2803

What heroes are you playing to think the attacks feel weak? I mean someone like Nova can remove half your health in one shot if specced right.

Others like Zeratul, Zagara, Illidan etc... can all take decent chunks of health away.

Also pug games in any game will always have the issue of either no comms or full of abuse, the ping system etc... helps with this as it's universal and not limited to language.

Tbh i'd rather no talk than read the crap spouted in the likes of Lol and Dota 2.

Fixed that for you! ;-)

(triple tap, 5x gathering power stacks + overdrive at lvl20 = ¬4000dmg triple tap alone).

Anyone seen recent sum up of changes?

NEW Hero Levels 11-20 – We want players who enjoy a certain Hero to have a reason to keep playing them after they reach Hero Level 10 and get their Master Skin. As such, we’re adding additional Hero Levels and incentives.

Can't wait for my nova grandmaster skin at lvl20 :D.

The levels 11-20 destorys me in the OCD stakes. I'm more than happy with level 10.

Nice we will get a good amount of gold and stimpack being as we are already level 40.

I have 22k gold now and I don't know what to spend it on, Sylvanna may well be a purchase. Tempted to buy the Zeratul master skin though.

Isn't the patch for open beta? If so it's going to be a while off yet.

Got Stitches, Sgt Hammer and Zeratul to 10 now.

Stitches is just a good laugh when you're in a lazy mode, got bored of Sgt Hammer but appreciate what she brings to a team.

Zeratul you have to be on your game more, squishy but lots of fun and great to gank with.

So thats a warrior, specialist and assassin done. Will do a healer next but will have a think which to choose. Then will decide on what the main will be for hero league etc...
 
Is everyone on EU servers here? I'm actually playing on the US servers as I play with friends I have out there, could use some more people to play with if you happen to be playing on the US servers.
