Großer Patch am 29ten September 2014.
(ja, da hab ich Namenstag)
Momentan sind ja alle Helden frei spielbar - dies gilt bis 29ten September. Dann wird das Spiel Offline genommen! Alle, die echtes Geld investiert haben, bekommen dies zurück auf ihr Blizzard Konto zurück. Alle Fortschritte und XP werden zurückgesetzt.
Nach einer Patch-Woche kommt das Spiel wieder Online und soll gleich einigen Leuten mehr zur Verfügung stehen. Ab dann ist invesitertes Geld aber fix weg.
Mir scheint das der erste große Schritt in Richtung Open-Beta zu sein und hoffe, dass ich wenigstens Mitte Oktober endlich meinen Key haben werde.
The Calm Before the Storm…
We mentioned last week that the transition to the final phase of the Technical Alpha would involve an account-wide wipe to all Heroes of the Storm accounts. This will take place on September 29. At that time, we will reset all player and hero progression made, gold earned, and shop purchases made in the Technical Alpha, and all real money purchases will be refunded as Battle.net balance.
We will also shut down the Technical Alpha for more than one week starting on September 29 in order to transition to production hardware. During this time Heroes of the Storm will be unavailable for play.
After we fully transition to production hardware, the final phase of the Technical Alpha for Heroes of the Storm will commence, and we will invite even more players from around the world to test the game. At this time we are targeting the game to be patched and playable again in North America, Latin America, South East Asia, Australia, and New Zealand on October 7, and in Europe on October 9. We anticipate that Korea, Taiwan, and China will be available again for play in the weeks thereafter, and as always, we will ensure we keep players informed of any updates on this extended downtime.
