I think we are beta testers.

Switzerland?

If so, we are the worst equipped ones ever...
No practice arena, no dodge/deflection numbers, no voice other than the feedback forum...

Oh, and we pay to test

That's a thing nowadays. Developers have actually suckered people into paying THEM to beta test their games and help them fix it. They call it "Early Access". It's crazy to know that beta testing used to be a job that paid a third party, to now being one where the third party pays them!

H1Z1 and Ark: Survival Evolved both had paid betas (early access).

It's widely known the game was rushed out months before it was supposed to be, and will forever be a broken mess because of it. Yes, we are paying beta testers.

This also describes *insert every single online game released in the past 10+ years*.

It's an unfortunate reality of the gaming industry.

Ah. I'm not much of a (computer) gamer outside of this. Thanks for the clarification.

It's very sad what gaming has become. It could have been much, much more.

That's why I'm back to blizzard games because what they touch turns into gold like the new Overwatch game. Tripple A title for $40. I realise that gives me some half a-ssed shards here from some ripoff pack ☺

So too did rust. Thing about ark and rust though, tons of gameplay and getting better every day. Here, not so much.

Is overwatch really good?

There is a new game being released that did not have paid betas or was rushed. It is the savior of the gaming industry. A game with so much content that it would take 585 billion years to explore all of it(not a joke) that game is...
