Overwatch Stress Test Weekend

Blizzard announces plans to conduct a stress test in Overwatch this weekend, so they will be making additional accounts as eligible for beta testing of the upcoming team shooter. They will be flagging these accounts on Thursday to give new participants the chance to download the client and testing will run from Friday until Monday. This post has further details and a FAQ on the process. Here's word on your chances of getting in if you have opted in to testing in Battle.net: "Beta Test Weekend participants are chosen from our Overwatch beta opt-in pool based on a variety of factors, including (but not limited to) your Battle.net region, when you signed up, your computer hardware specifications, and an element of luck."

The TF2 market is already very small and Valve has cornered it with keys, boxes and hats. Even moreso with the popularity of CS skins and knives. Blizzard isn't really known for their FPS.

...element of luck. Fucking Blizzard. They can't resist using RNG even when it is totally unnecessary.
I have a nifty blue line!

This game looks great.

It's my theory this will compete heavily against TF2? And Blizzard wants to make sure they win that competition, which is why people have been waiting so long (from what I read) for it -- Blizzard is probably working on the whole hats/skins/cosmetics system right now.

Heh. Luck. This would be the blizzard that gave my wow/diablo account a legacy of the void beta invite but not my starcraft2 account.
