    Has any one in this forum gotten into the Overwatch beta?
    I'm kind of excited to try it out but I haven't gotten in (yet, hopefully).

    Nope, and I think I ruined my chances because of the Hero of the Storm Alpha. I got into that one very early, but I just got tired of downloading the game every week. They didn´t set it up with patches, so every time they made changes, I had to download like 8 GIGs. The download isn´t bad, but you can never play when you want to play.

    I wasn't in Heroes of the Storm Alpha. That sucks that they didn't set it up for patching.
    I'm currently in the beta and sadly haven't played that much. They do have it set up for patching now through the battle.net client.

    I'd love to play Overwatch's beta. I wasn't aware it was already in beta, since when was that Epicfield? Can you talk about it a bit? I did sign up for it in the Battle Net website, but I'm not sure how they proceed to let you know you got in. Cheers!

    As far as I know, it is in beta. I didn't get in (yet, at least). How beta with Battle.net works is... random, I think. My husband got into the Heroes of the Storm beta about a week and a half before me but I signed up first. I'm currently signed up to be in beta for anything from battle.net and I try to update it as soon as I find out something it hitting beta.

    Overwatch looks like my kind of game. Knowing Blizzard, it's not going to release until it's fully polished. So I am trying to get into beta somehow. Let's see if I get lucky.

    Ah, I misunderstood. You two are very lucky then! I'm dying to play Heroes of the Storm.
    Also, I've noticed you have a stream. Nice! Is this recent? I see no past broadcasts and I didn't notice your link yesterday, though that might be my bad.

    I enjoy it so far. I've not played a lot.

    I've had it in my signature since I joined, but yes, I do stream and so does my husband.
    Right now, I'm a bit off schedule due to getting ready to move and other things.

    Thank you so much. I normally try to stream on Mondays or Tuesday, but that's no where near guaranteed.

    I really like the concept. My friend has a beta key and I've watched him play, so far it seems amazing. I've signed up though and I hope I get accepted.

    Is anyone in yet? I'm so desperate to get in myself!! A Blizzard-made shooter has been a dream of mine for long, and it's finally happening.

    I think that beta isn't released yet - it is supposed to go live at fall this year. That being said a lot of people have already played it and general consensus is that the game is awesome. It has a TF2 feel but also a lot more depth. I'm definetly looking forward to it.. to bad most of Blizz beta waves doesn't come my way :(

    As Bluesman stated, we're going to get a closed beta around fall, this year. I can say about myself that I got lucky with Blizzard's waves of beta keys regarding Hearthstone and also Heroes of the Storm. I've got in HotS in the Technical Alpha and as far as Hearthstone goes, I've been there since the first wipe. I feel pretty confident I'm going to score a Overwatch invite also! Looking forward to play the game!

    I can't wait for this one. I have been playing Team Fortress since it was just a quake 1 mode, and I've been playing Warcraft since the original. To see these two come together is like a dream come true for me. I signed up to get in the beta but I have yet to get a key. Oh well :-/

    Late July should more or less see a larger number of people on Overwatch or so I think. Very excited as well. I can't wait to play a new game by Blizzard.

    Looking forward to trying it, as from the reviews and impressions, it sounds like a great FPS. Though, I'll most likely start playing it when it is in open beta or similar, mainly because I probably won't be able to get a key at this point, and the desire to avoid most of the egregious bugs.

    Yep, Blizzard is the Apple of gaming studios. Their taste and quality control are impeccable. Smaller product line, but consistent hits and rabid fanboys.
