I played this too. It's fun, although I'm terrible at MOBAs.
How intense is the item/upgrade shop? Like, is it gonna take me months to master or are most upgrades fairly straightforward?
The upgrades do seem pretty straightforward as far as wording, but I didn't fully understand how some of the "spirit" ones worked, so I might look it up elsewhere before I play again. I just bought the "recommended" items, but I also kept getting demolished, so maybe I need to branch out.
Yo picard, hook me up with an invite at my name at Gmail pretty please
I just logged in to try, but apparently you can't send invites with an email. =(
How do you send them? My steam ID is my username soooo
Thanks for trying
It has to be through your friends list, and I would absolutely invite if my steam account wasn't (unfortunately) identifiable to me. I feel uncomfortable putting that out to Lemmy. Sorry!
Is cool, no worries.
It's not too daunting. It has the same guide system as dota so you can just pick a build someone else made and follow it to learn them. It also has a lot of voice lines to help with reacting to item effects, like the item with an active that makes you invulnerable to bullets makes heroes say a "I can't shoot them" or "don't waste your ammo" voice line.
Ooh, that's a nice touch
Any chance you can invite people?
I would invite all of y'all that I could, but I don't feel comfortable putting my steam name out there on lemmy for privacy reasons. Sorry =(
It doesn't work anyway, valve patched it so you need to be friends for 30 days minimum
I wish valve could sued the mf instead of just banning him. The game ask to not divulge and the mf publish a article to farm some internet clicks, come on man.
And I’m not under NDA. I have signed no contracts and made no verbal agreements; I haven’t even clicked through a EULA.
This message does pop up when I launch Deadlock, but I didn’t click “OK”; instead, I hit the Escape key and watched it disappear.
The pop-up wasn't even an agreement, it just said "don't do it"
why wouldn't it be an agreement tho? like sure it's not an EULA, but it's asking you to do something before allowing you into the game
They could have worded it differently, but they didn't. It doesn't ask, it doesn't have any confirmation or agreement language. It literally just says 'do not share anything about the game with anyone' with an 'ok' prompt.
Why though? They get free advertising and by banning him they showed everyone else that they will follow through on banning if they share information so it stays contained.
Did they want the free advertising now in the alpha? I don't think so
Honestly, I think Valve is just kind of doing a soft release/announcement and are trying to build up hype slowly like this. If they were really worried about leaks they wouldn't have given anybody in it unlimited free invites to send to anyone.
It wouldn’t surprise me if this was a way to avoid typical launch day server issues either.
Rather than have everyone dumped into their servers as once, they let things ramp up.
Though that could be giving too much credit considering it’s in alpha. Aloha would suggest its still far from release, probably too early to bother stress test the servers or w/e.
Fair enough, but there is a possibility that the unlimited invites was not intentional hahahaha. Valve also do some oopsie doodle
just got an invite for this, not sure if I want to bother though since hero shooters aren't my bag.
Join it and then you can invite the desperate folk like me!
Shooters are my bag, any chance that you can pass along an invite?
If you don't mind sharing the invite link as a few others have mentioned, I'd be interested. Shoot me a DM if you are up for it
You need to be friends for at least 30 days before you can invite someone.
Today I learned! Good to know, it was worth a shot lol.
Echoing the other comments, join and pass an invite along - if we organise we can get everyone in.
“Secret” is a bit of a stretch. The playtest was offered to nearly all longtime Steam users. If it’s meant to be a secret, someone at Valve is getting fired.
Looks good. Would be very thankful for an invite to the playtest.
Same. Would love an invite
