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.

Why though? They get free advertising and by banning him they showed everyone else that they will follow through on banning if they share information so it stays contained.

Did they want the free advertising now in the alpha? I don’t think so

Honestly, I think Valve is just kind of doing a soft release/announcement and are trying to build up hype slowly like this. If they were really worried about leaks they wouldn’t have given anybody in it unlimited free invites to send to anyone.

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.

The pop-up wasn’t even an agreement, it just said “don’t do it”

why wouldn’t it be an agreement tho? like sure it’s not an EULA, but it’s asking you to do something before allowing you into the game

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.

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 =(

It doesn’t work anyway, valve patched it so you need to be friends for 30 days minimum

just got an invite for this, not sure if I want to bother though since hero shooters aren’t my bag.

If you don’t mind sharing the invite link as a few others have mentioned, I’d be interested. Shoot me a DM if you are up for it

You need to be friends for at least 30 days before you can invite someone.

Echoing the other comments, join and pass an invite along - if we organise we can get everyone in.
