Community!

We want you to ask questions about Overwatch, its development, its team of developers and playtesters, our tools, our future plans, our cats.. You name it! We will try to answer them all.

We will even answer as many as we can live on air, on Podcast17's 93rd episode! You can read the complete details in this news post.


Ask away!

right then...

Will you guys have community competitions like team fortress 2? you know with maps and stuff..

Will servers have it relatively easy to change things as number of player , able to change the health on npcs?
or will it be more restricted to the level designers?

Well I think that's pretty easy to figure out, just view members and look at only those in Developers. 7 listed there.

When will you place more units in the map and if so what units? When will players be able to make maps? Zombie AI will that take part in a later part of the Beta? When will the Overwatch be able to order the combine troops to defend and move into a line? Last but not least when will the combines stop running off like asshats and getting themselves shot to bits?

[CCCPkiller]

anychance of their being like 2-3 other jobs for the overwatch, like squad leaders on the ground?
