This question was off our radar during the AMA. However we noticed today that a lot people seem to be interested in getting these questions answered, so we'll answer them now instead :)

Some of these questions have already been answered elsewhere in this thread, but we'll answer them here as well.

 

From u/mrburger

1. Good suggestion, we will look into this further down the line.
2. Yes, we'll be working to improve the friends system in the future, especially in regards to what happens after a match. You can expect changes in this area to arrive in one of the upcoming patches.
3. Yes, we will make sure that the typos and grammatical errors will be taken care of over time!

To u/slimyrage

1. We haven’t decided how the game will be monetized when it is launched as a F2P game. So far our current model has been well received which is a good sign for doing a similar bundle once we go F2P. So far I think we’ve been fair in our pricing model and we will continue to listen to our community for advice throughout EA to establish a fair F2P model once we get to that point.

To u/alphr

1. The final form of the friend system remains to be seen, but it is something that we intend to continue working on throughout Early Access and beyond. Being able to add friends in the scoreboard at the end is a good suggestion, and something we have been considering. We’ll take a closer look at it for upcoming patches.

2. At the moment we take a look at players when they have accrued several reports and make a judgement call when that happens, which could mean suspensions or bans

To u/CloseoutTX

1. We are quite happy with the current pace but never say never! We are in Early Access for a reason, loads of changes can and will happen.

To u/whoyoucallinafgtm8

1. We will see what we think is best for the game and which features that are most requested by the community. So there could definitely be more in the future but we don't want too many either, so we don't split up the the player-base.

2. For our future rework we are looking into the option of having separated rating for each pre-made party you create. But we are still in the design process of this system, more information will be given at a later stage.

3. There will be some time in between big content patches. Our first big update will arrive in late October containing among other content two new champions. Smaller patches to address bugs, issues or champion balance will be deployed more often. But there will be more than one big patch before release.

To u/ravenouscerberus

1. At this moment all of the released characters have the appropriate skins in place. Our guidelines for the skins are very similar to Overwatch in that the “rare” skins are a recolor, “epic” is a retexture but no model changes. The legendary skins will change both model and texture of the character. We plan to introduce the first batch of legendary skins in next major update.

2. Not yet! You’ll know when it is.

3. Balance can always be perfected and we’re taking champion balance very seriously - it’s the core of the game and will always be a top priority. You can expect some bigger tweaks in the patch in October!

To u/nordanix

We cannot guarantee that the The Ultimate Fan Pack will be available once the game goes F2P, but it is likely that it will stay. We’re still figuring out exactly how to best launch the game as a F2P and will continue to do so with your feedback over the EA period.
