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.

just got an invite for this, not sure if I want to bother though since hero shooters aren't my bag.
-
Shooters are my bag, any chance that you can pass along an invite?
-
Join it and then you can invite the desperate folk like me!
-
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

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.
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.
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 =(
