    These skins are amazing, the urge to buy lootboxes has skyrocketed.

    Was a good challenge, beating the Halloween mode on hardest difficulty! I don't suggest pugging it, it requires good teamwork and good combos of your ultimates. I hope we'll be getting some PvE gamemode in the near future. Will be nice for a change.

    I'm in the US and been waiting 45 mins and counting. Not really acceptable from a game purchased by over 15 million people.

    I absolutely adore the narrated story-book Zomnic mode! I sincerely hope Blizzard does more of these!

    I've done it 4 times and had less than a minute wait each time. Dunno.

    The new brawl is pretty fun - and surprisingly tough on the higher difficulty settings. I like a lot of the new costumes too, especially 76's vampire skin.

    Really really stupid that they force 4 specific characters on you for the Brawl. Everyone should be playable.

    Everything else about is great EXCEPT for that restriction. It'd be perfect if they removed it.

    Inb4 someone complains Mercys witch skin is too sexual or something.

    76's is. It makes me all flustered.

    I really like Mercy's outfit though too. I always found the Devil outfit to be...tacky but this is much more elegant.

    Multiple heroes would either trivialize it, or be totally useless. D.va would be useless, for instance, Junkrat and Pharah's AoE would potentially trivialize the zomnics, the obvious issues with Bastion, Torb, Symmetra, etc.

    The Brawl is balanced around those 4, and the Brawl is actually really good for helping you learn to aim with all 4.

    I'm hoping this is a test run for a full fledged PvE Horde mode. Co-op is something the Starcraft team completely underestimated the popularity for, and I think the same will be for overwatch.

    I don't agree. Its extremely difficult with the heroes given because most of them require
    a high skill cap of accuracy.

    And considering how in later portions, there are waves coming at all times and multiple
    bosses at once, no single group of heroes is going to trivialize it, especially with the
    restriction of only one hero.

    Mercy+Bastion would easily trivialize anything. Bastion would rip through everything while boosted.

    Even Pharah is a good example alone. Aside from cooldowns/ultimates, none of the current heroes really have reliable splash damage in this brawl. Pharah on the other hand, literally everything she does is splash damage. Same with Junkrat, which Endus even mentioned.
