Heroes of the Storm

Hi guys!

Is anyone here playing on Europe?

I'm a platinum rated player looking to improve and meet more people to play with.

I've got a discord which me and a few friends are on often, and we're always down for Hero League, Team League, Unranked, etc.

Neutral#2364 is my add

Post yours here!!

Yup, but stuck in Toxic gold which is full of total and absolute idiots. Going to quit the game if I don't break Plat before the season ends.

Season ends tomorrow at 4 am mate...Don't sweat it, next season!

I'm aiming for Diamond this season if I can.

Here was my moment of joy just the other day

so how does Heroes compared to DOTA2? I'm not trolling, but genuinely interested to understand the differences in the play style. From videos i've watched it seems to have a bit more variety in the objectives, which is fun, but less mechanically intense than dota. Would be great to get the view of a player of both games.

Shared XP
No items, talents only
Shorter games
Objective orientated maps

hots2.0

Some big changes to the to player level, shop and the way to recieve items coming

Yeah it is good that they are not afraid to drastically change it up and then reward those that have already purchased stuff with gems and crates etc.

Looking forward to it, Will be downloading the beta to see what my rewards will actually be tonight

It's just a way to milk more money. Previously buying a skin would get you every colour variation for it.

In the new system, all colour variations are classes as separate skins, so to fully own a skin in the new system, you have to buy it three or four times. Sure, you can get them for free from boxes if you are lucky, but you can't guarantee getting either the colour or skin you actually want from those.

I don't spend real cash in game so they won't be milking me

Just realised I revived the wrong thread

Anyone paying much attention to 2.0. Had a break from it after hammering it since beta.

Been playing again as of late and been enjoying it. Just logging in now and see how many chests etc... I get as a veteran player.

Sega Mega Dave · 26 Apr 2017 at 16:51

Just checked and got 65 chests so not too bad, player level is 595. I couldn't quite get it to 600 before update for the extra veteran chest.

Away with work but looking forward to seeing what loot I get when I get online tomorrow

Anyone else dissapointed with d.va as the new hero? I was hoping for something more as a 2.0 Wowzers launch hero

Sega Mega Dave · 26 Apr 2017 at 18:38

I don't mind D.Va I think she could be fun, not overly fussed about Genji even though I have just bought him and about to play him.

adey · 27 Apr 2017 at 11:31

played a few games with my son to get overwatch skin, a few new heroes i didn't know how to deal with....

Sega Mega Dave · 28 Apr 2017 at 13:18

I don think many people still play it. I need friend up and do challenges for the free skins and mount.

Also still need to level cho/gall as only heroes I don't have over level 5

[YG]Bug-Eyed · 28 Apr 2017 at 14:20

I auto join the ocuk channel but usually it's empty! More difficult now to do the friend quests as you can't start HL draft solo and add people in there now due to solo requirement

Even with the revamp and giving loads of free stuff away it's still pretty much identical to before. Had a few games last night after nearly a year since I last played and already put it down again.

Why did you expect it to be different? The only thing that changed was the progression and the way you obtain items.
