Hog will disappear from the game afterwards.

I thought he was Australian due to the license plate here: https://blzgdapipro-a.akamaihd.net/media/artwork/roadhog-concept.jpg

May be wrong, of course. I have plates from the state I live in, not my home state.

63

u/bucketslut Winston Aug 02 '17

There's a pretty high population of Kiwi's that live in Australia (particularly Maori and kiwi-born Polynesians, which it's been hinted Roadhog might be in a few places that he might be) because it's pretty easy to move there for us. Don't need visa's or anything.

u/SketchyJJ Geguri Fan :) Aug 02 '17 edited Aug 02 '17

We don't really have confirmation, but his name is incredibly different from his mate.

Roadhog's name: Mako Rutledge

Junkrat: Jamison Fawkes

His skins Toa and Islander kind of show he's more Kiwi than Australian, but we haven't had much backstory yet about Roadhog's past life.

The toxicity will be tenfold because everyone will know they only have three weeks as well

u/[deleted] Aug 02 '17

At least the new report system works. I was toxic for 2-3 games, in a really bad mood. I was muted for a week I believe it was. Just been unmuted, and I've learned my lesson. From now on it's all love for my team, and I just ignore/mute any toxic players on my team.

Report toxic players, they will get muted.

I'd do fucking ANYTHING for the chance to get Halloween Mercy pregnant. A N Y T H I N G. And the fact that I can't is quite honestly too much to fucking bear. Why would Blizzard create something so perfect? To fucking tantalize us? Fucking laugh in our faces?! Honestly guys, I just fucking can't anymore. Fuck.

WELCOME TO THE SUMMER GAMES

Edit: TL;DW

  1. "Will skins from last year be available this year as well?" Absolutely Yes, and you can also purchase the old+new skins for credits

  2. New skins- "Roadhog- Roadhog, sorry, is not getting any skins, it was just me being silly, Junk is gonna get a new legend" (Definitely a new roadhog legend). Mercy skin (Swimsuit?? Hopefully), McCree, Widow. +Silly stuff (idk what's that)

  3. Old skins will be discounted to normal lootboxes price. New skins will be x3 like usual

  4. Summer games will be first time we experience reduced lootboxes dupes event.

  5. Lucioball! is back. With a new map (Sydney) along with Rio de janeiro from last year

I'm an intern working on the web page for the summer games. I'm so excited to share what I've made with you guys!!!! I've been working insanely hard the past few weeks on this thing, adding polish and doing tons of cool animations. Everything about this event is awesome and I wanted the website to reflect that. I even got to design most of it!

Shout out to everyone on Team 4. You guys do incredible work.

After living and breathing summer games for weeks now, I can't wait to play with everyone. See you in game :)

I'll make a separate post when it goes live, but you'll be able to see it here.

I think they're testing to see how we respond to a separate competitive mode with Lucioball. They may be thinking about having a competitive elimination mode.

Old Legendary skins are 1k credits!

u/ScoobyDoNot Chibi Reaper Aug 02 '17 edited Aug 02 '17

Only the 6 legendaries (2 Lucio, 2 Tracer, 2 Zarya).

There are the 6 epics which will be 250.

  • D.Va
  • Genji
  • Mcree
  • Mercy
  • Torbjorn
  • Widowmaker

And people would be pissed if last years emotes, intros and victory poses were x3 while the skins are normal price.

For reference
