Every colour in that picture is a different account. He wrote this all in about half an hour. I honestly can not understand what is wrong with this person.

Post Mortem: Suns Out, Guns Out

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 08:33 AM PDT

The end of the first HOTS 2.0 event is upon us, how did you think it went? Here's my 2 cents:

Pros:

-Fun Launch Animatic: Cheeky blizzard is best blizzard.

-Pull Party: Arguably the best Brawl we've gotten.

-Summer Sprays: Wonderfully themed and tease future skins.

-New Skins: The new Tychus and Tracer skins are creative and have some great animations.

-New Mounts: Surfboards are awesome.

-Loot Chests: Visuals and sounds fit the theme well.

-Weekly Drawings: Generous giveaways gave an additional reason to play.

-Tychus' Bulge: Like staring into the sun; you can't turn away.

Cons:

-Shard Pricing: Premium price tag makes it hard to appreciate the F2P model.

-Tints: Multiple tints of the SOGO skins made it onerous to collect them all, pricing again rears its ugly head.

-Lack of Transparency: Shard pricing reneging, no event daily counter, all contributed to player frustration and uncertainty.

-Pull Party: Only ran one week, no encore.

-No Guaranteed Event Items in Loot Boxes: Your mileage may vary with this one, many people took issue with it.

-No Banana Hammock on Tychus' Odin: Huuuuuge missed opportunity.

Overall I feel like SOGO was a success with the customer service side of things taking the shine off an otherwise enjoyable event. What are your thoughts? Solutions?

A try mode for mount now would really be appreciated Blizzard.

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 10:54 AM PDT

I still got around 10k shards from saving eversince 2.0 launch vet chest.
Now that you can only buy a single tint for mount. A try mode which you can choose a skin you owned to see if it goes well with a mount would be really appreciated.
I want to see if W&B Ghost Speeder + Ghost Illidan will match.
I want to see if Neon Spectre Phantom + Heroic Balespider Gul'dan goes well with each other.

Blizzard partners with Twitch - implementing team support through Cheering

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 05:13 AM PDT

I'm more than a little salty that all the summer items were removed from the shop without any fanfare or "leaving soon"

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 04:05 PM PDT

I was saving up all my shards to buy skins and sprays I hadn't opened during the event, only to find them gone without warning, despite still being advertised on every loading screen. No "last chance" warning, no "leaving soon" on disappearing items in the loadout, just gone.

I Propose Raynor should have a Bunker Heroic

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 07:00 AM PDT

Since Blizzard is looking into revamping our Main Marine I suggest to remove the banshee ult entirely. I understand its not useless. As a matter of fact its quite good in various situations, I just dont feel like Banshees is a Marine thing to do. So instead I suggest this.

BUNKER: Encase yourself in a bunker which has X amount of HP. While in the bunker you cannot move but you can attack increasing your range by 20%. Bunker lasts until killed or another one is spawned. You can leave and enter the bunker at any time.

LVL20: Bunker now was 3 marines in the bunker which attack. When the bunker is destroyed the marines will come out and continue to attack.

Also he should have some kind of Vulture talent because he rode one in SC1. Maybe it changes his mount to a vulture and increase his mount speed our something

Would you like d3 nephalems of opposite sex to come to the Nexus?

QM's MMR should have nothing to do with HL seeding

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 02:48 AM PDT

Title says all. QM is a place of testing, of quick games, of trying out heroes that you want to get better with. It shouldn't be the MMR used for your start of HL.

I know that it's difficult to balance matchmaking in a chaotic format (random picks, random groups, random teams) and keep it quick queue-wise, but since it's so 'random', please don't even use it as a reference to the 'competitive' start of new players.

Knights of the Frozen Throne skins for hots

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 03:08 PM PDT

Basically the title, I don't know if everyone in the hots community plays Hearthstone but I imagine that even if they didn't people would still like seeing Rexxar, Jaina, Gul'dan, and now Garrosh (along with the rest of the heroes from HS) in their death knight forms from the upcoming HS expac. I personally think it would be really cool and exciting, and a cool (hehe) shift from the Sun's Out Guns out event. It'd be a really good chance to have themed abilities for all of them, but sadly we'd be missing out on Anduin and his skin for it. Interactions with Arthas would be spectacular as well!

Weird interaction between Uther Passive and Auriel Resurrect

Posted: 24 Jul 2017 11:21 PM PDT

https://clips.twitch.tv/IncredulousBreakableBillCclamChamp

An Uther was killed and unable to respawn for the rest of the match in my Hero League game. Uther was Auriel resurrected while he was still in his Passive's spirit form, and once his passive ended he got instantly killed and did not respawn for the remainder of the match.

Can Tracer have an energy bar similar to D.Va for pulse bomb?

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 10:57 AM PDT

It seems odd that Tracers bullets need to be the displayed bar. It would seem like if D.Va's self destruct bar has a visual charge, that perhaps tracer could get a minor rework to see when you're most at risk to get sticky bombed.

Could party invites pls show the current gamemode of the group?

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 03:29 AM PDT

Hey,

when i get invited to a group i would like to see what they are going to play, before i join.

Something like "XY is inviting you to a party in unranked draft/A.I" etc. would be very helpful.

My problem with the current "Looking for more" is that if i wanna play unranked draft/HL with strangers i have to search for a party through chatchannels to prevent joining countless of QM/A.I. groups.

Searching for random ppl just to play as a group < specific search for gamemodes you wanna play now

Would you like Cydaea to join the Nexus?

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 12:58 PM PDT

Would you? If so how do you think she would work? I think she could work as a hero with a slows from her webs and D.O.T damage from her spiders. Do you have any ideas how she could work she could work interestingly I think but then again her silhoutte is somewhat similar to Zagara. So would you like her to join if so give me your ideas and opinions if not still give me your opinions! :D

[QM] I wish the game would always ask about the match experience

Posted: 25 Jul 2017 07:43 AM PDT

It is distressing to think that the people developing the match maker algorithm may not really have good data on what constitutes a good match. How would you decide that a match was evenly matched? I guess that the best they can do is measure the game's length and if both teams reached level 20+ then the match is technically even.

But looking back, I've had many QM matches that were terrible experiences even though my team managed to survive till 20+.

Sometimes a popup appears asking you to judge your match experience. I really wish this popup appeared all the time. Let the QM match maker devs have actual data. What sorts of match ups lead to better scores by the players.

Surely, people would tend to vote positively when they won the match. That's why we need tons of data on the subject, so that we can identify slight differences. If with an algorithm, slightly more people are positive, even when losing, then that's good to know.

Currently the quiz popup is very rare and sometimes it asks you about other things like the hero you played or the battleground. There's two problem with this. One is that I think matchup quality should be a priority, and there are better ways to get data on hero or battle ground popularity. The other issue is that sometimes the popup appears, I assume it is the "game experience" popup and rate before realizing that it was actually the other question. This is probably corrupting the data...
