Wonder what their criteria was. Got an invite today.
Was there anyplace to signup or just rando invites? Im assuming rando based on something
Random for me. I'd bet it's based off having played other similar games like TF2 for a significant amount of time.
Do you mind if I ask how many hours you've put into TF2? I hope you enjoy the beta.
Honestly don't recall and can't look. But it's a lot. Lot of hours into the various CS games too.
Someone on your friends who has it randomly invited you. You used to need someone's email and steam account to invite them now you can just invite anyone in your friends with a clock of a button. I went and invited all my friends I thought might be interested without telling them.
Asked all my friends and I'm the first to get one.
Edit: Just looked again. My invite says From - The Steam Team.
It says that regardless of who invites you. Someone on your friends lkst doesn't want you to know they gave it :)
It feels random, I don't have VR or play any similar games, none of my friends invited me or play it themselves, nor do they play those types of games either.
My guess is it was a shotgun invite to get momentum and play testing.
It's pretty fun so far, and I haven't even finished the training levels.
Really looking forward to this one. Arena hero-shooters are my favorite games, going all the way back to QWTF.
This game is 100% full on a moba and not a hero shooter so I hope you are okay with that. I'm 125hrs in it's a lot of fun.
Played 3 hours last night with a buddy. No MOBA experience. We both had more fun than expected, even losing all our matches.
I already saw a community problem with people saying to forfeit within the first 10 mins and trying to abandon games. So I hope they keep the bot match options for when even the unranked queue gets shitty. Cuz it’s just a matter of time like all games.

This has been my experience with pretty much any competitive online game for at least the last half a decade. Among much other unsportsmanlike behavior.
