    I know a few had interest in it a while ago but Evolve will become a Free to Play game in the coming months.

    I got my copy from Amazon. Should be delivered to Parcel Motel today so MAYBE it gets sent down to me tonight and I can pick it up in the morning.

    More likely I have it early next week.

    Probably won't get much of a chance to play it this weekend if I do get it anyway.

    That's a shame because we were all planning on binging on Overwatch this weekend and we'll probably be sick of it by Monday.

    Think I might just go and give Gamestop some of my earned cash to play it tonight :P

    Please for the love of christ learn how to play Support characters (start with Mercy maybe, she's easy to use)

    Oh and Hanzo and/or Widowmaker (but she has a very high skill rating)

    We're sorely missing snipers and decent support (aside from the 7 of us who have been playing competitive)

    It's cringe loading in solo into a Public lobby and the 5 other players are all running Assault (Genji, McCree, Soldier 76, Reaper) and Troll Mei

    ME EVERY LOBBY: "Can someone play Tank? Can someone play Sniper, they have like 3 Bastions? I guess I'll go Mercy again so" -_-

    I know everyone wants to get that sick quad down ultimate Reaper kill, but every time we've actually won a game handily recently it has been like 2 Tanks and 1 or 2 Supports. Totally steamroll. Rheinheart is a great place to start as a Tank

    Oh and use Skirmish (pre match lobby) to play as people you have never played as, no point in just getting kills as Reaper.

    I'm pretty salty about the Assault overuse, particularly in Public

    Just to clarify, I haven't been able to actually learn how to play Hanzo/Widowmaker cause I nearly always have to go Support or Tank cause that's what I'm best at and generally other players prefer me to go that as I'm fairly handy with them. Which actually suits us all

    Ya... Well we're all going to the Lighthouse in Overwatch this weekend.

    Honestly, I'm pretty much going to main that gorilla character.

    He's extremely situational (totally depends on map/game mode)

    Personally, I like his powers, but find it tricky to get kills as him. You're essentially a meat shield / distraction
