So, what do you have to do to get the skins and things? Just play matches? Do you have to queue with a friend or anything like that?

Only 2 Requirements.
-First be playing with a friend.
-Play 5 Matches.

More often than not if you say you'll help with the challenges in the chat, There's a high chance you'll be invited to a party and either be sent a friend request right after, or when a full party is formed, that's how it went for me anyway.

The matches are just playing, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, just complete 5 Matches per challenge.

It seems for the Genji thing you just need to play ai matches while the D.Va thing you need to play against people. I think playing with a friend isn't a good requirement, but whatever lol. I should try to do this tomorrow when I get off of work.

it's actually not that bad of a game. They only thing that would keep me from playing it is the controls. I don't like point and click to attack controls for anything except Diablo dungeon crawler games. And even then it gets burdensome to have to point and click. But I've had problems with that control style ever since Diablo 2 so it hasn't ever been a control scheme I liked.

I say it's just a matter of getting used to, I can play it pretty well now, well, in that I got the movement, attacking and skill buttons memorized, I'm still not that good at the game though, granted I only see to play Ragnaros, until D.Va comes out, but still.

I play Mystery Heroes a lot, so sometimes I just, forget how common Hanzomaker is.

They're in every fucking game.

Often times they're grouped.

I hope you didn't whisper to me and then me not even noticing XD I finished up the things for the D.Va skin though, at least I think I did. I'll see if I did when I go into Overwatch right now.

Weren't the numbers of new items already datamined?

Ss8vXBr

If these numbers are accurate, we can expect two voicelines, two sprays and one victory pose for everyone.

Reaper definitely getting some shit.

I hope it's just his vanilla skin but with a party hat on his head.

More context to this:

In light of the recent news of a new event for Overwatch's one year anniversary, I went through some of the files of the PTR using OverTool. What you see in this post is some of the most interesting unused content I found.
First, there are items that are not event-specific:
-2 new emotes for Sombra
-2 new emotes for Orisa
-A new emote for Tracer
-A new emote, victory pose, and spray for Reaper
The new emotes for Sombra and Orisa are most likely the new sit and laugh emotes we were promised by Blizzard. Tracer's new emote makes sense considering the fact that she only has 2 non-event emotes besides her sit and laugh emotes, whereas every other hero has 3.
Next, there are items that are event specific. There's no way to tell what these items are, but here is a list of how many items each hero is going to get:
5 items: Reaper, Mercy, Torbjorn, Reinhardt, Winston, Widowmaker, Zenyatta, Roadhog, McCree, Junkrat, Sombra, Ana, Orisa
6 items: Tracer, Hanzo, Pharah, Bastion, Symmetra, Genji, Zarya, Soldier, Lucio, D.Va, Mei
As for non-hero specific items, there are four new items located directly after the seasons 1-4 sprays and player icons. These are most likely the sprays and icon for season 5. There is also an item located directly after the Uprising 2017 player icon. This might be an icon for the new event, or something else entirely. Next, there are 2 items listed under the event_6 category, which might be new icons or sprays for the event. Finally, the most interesting new general item is listed under the LOOTBOX_EXCLUSIVE_0 category, which normally only holds the credit piles you sometimes get from loot boxes. This could be hinting towards a new tier of credit pile beyond legendary, but I think that it's more likely that this is some sort of entirely new mechanic.
Finally, there's some changes that are coming to Lijiang Tower. I won't get into the details of the changes now, but if you're curious, you can check out a thread I made about it here.


https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/6b7kwe/everything_we_know_about_upcoming_content_from/

It's thought that the event will start tomorrow, so if you're playing past 8 tonight it might be best to hold off on getting arcade wins.

Well, they usually give a few days notice for the next event, so it's looking unlikely it will be tomorrow unless they drop the trailer in the morning.

I'm att 1084 now....i can't win more than one game before i go on a horrid losing streak

it's become exhausting just to win one game now!

never have i had such a horrible experience with overwatch that it's convinced me maybe i should quit the game for awhile

i heard that near the end of the season players get derpier because it's seasons end but damn! next season is gonna be hell on earth at this rate

because at best I'll start off where i finished this season....below 1400 and that means the climb to the top will be horrendous

Remember nightmare bunny, SR isnt the only thing that determines rank.

Theres also MMR

So if you play 'X' character like a platinum/diamond would you get rewarded for that

Well I mostly played healers this season so I don't expect much except disappointment my best character didn't get much playtime this season(zarya)due to how often we needed a healer and thus late in the season it's even worse

There are a few possibilities

-The event was delayed internally
-The event isn't going to be as long as other events

The leaked date for the event was the end date, and the start date was inferred from that. The leak seemed pretty trustworthy.

I kind of wonder if they didn't want us unlocking 10 lootboxes from HotS for the new event. But then they could have just made those 10 regular lootboxes so that's probably not it.

WOO D.Va released and unlocked on HotS!, And of course I choose her "Fiery"/Eva-02/Asuka color scheme to play with, I think I did pretty OK with her in the 5 matches I played for those Loot Boxes, Though, I haven't opened them on Overwatch yet, though I'm calling it now: A bunch of Dupes and Sprays will be all I et, lol....

And it should be a permanent item rather than an event limited one, according to the datamine. I remember as soon as the datamine came out people were like "Yep, that's the shrug."

The Q&A with Jeff also suggests Reaper as a character is going to be developed a lot more.

i wish characters weren't so damn expensive on HOTS it feels like you get very little gold for winning compared to what you need to buy any characters

I only got her right away cause I got 1,000 of that premium currency for reaching player level 5, And since I found out D.Va was gonna be added, I didn't spend it until she came out and got her that way, I know there was a bundle with her other costumes, but eh, I don't much care for them, I'd rather keep using her Asuka recolor, lol.

Though I do agree, you seem to not get that many coins unless you go out of your way to do each daily challenge....

I don't blame you, I'd be pretty annoyed/angry too if I didn't have the money for her, I mean you COULD spend what, maybe $10 to get enough of that currency stuff to get her that way, but I know not everyone wants to support that crap or have the spare money to do that....

It'd be fair if you could earn enough gold simply by playing the game but you don't

the rate at which you gain gold is horribly slow

So the skins might be based on Project Titan, a failed MMO that Blizzard worked on for years but never saw the light of day, and eventually lead to the creation of Overwatch. Also the 3 new maps might be part of a "Gladiator" style mode.
