RIP Heroes of the Storm ☠️

Should we pack our things?

“Blizzard pulls Developers from Heroes of the Storm”

Looks like game is slowly decaying and with lack of pro developers it will not improve, so stop asking for balance, HL/TL changes or other silly things because that will not happen! Interns will run the show now!

Probably hero releases will go down to few a year~

Esport was cancelled as well if you dont know!

Honestly it wouldn’t surprise me if in a few years blizzard announce they’re shutting down the Hots servers.

Now that I think about this, internally this must have been on the table for months for blizzard, and if wow is anything to go by they have no compunction against ruining a system to justify removing it, perhaps the recent MM problems were intentionally implemented to tank the playerbase and justify stopping support for HotS?

Short answer yes.If you need some context watch TheQuartering video regarding Heros,on what happend.Also YoungYea and Jim Sterling covered the news,all got the same conclusion where this is heading.

…my last cent this is Activsion cant call this company Blizzard anymore.

Literally why is anyone surprised…?

Multiple people have said banning and auto-mating reports on their playerbase is going to DESTROY their community…

aaaannd then it did?

Aaaand now no one plays…

Aaand now no one gives them money…

Ssooo… they had… to… cancel it?

It’s not like we didn’t try to warn them lol.

its all about Amrita Ahuja and her mission of cutting costs. They don’t give a hoot about the game, they only care about mobile gaming now.

The recent development got 0 things to do, that the game never broke ground against Dota 2 and LoL,no matter how hard they improved the game or promote it.And everyone kinda embraced that and it was cool.
As most outlets are reporting ,and people seeing across Blizz games, the recent Hots thing is 1 of the so many Activision move into Blizzard.First sign was Mike steping down,2.was the new Activision CFO moving into the company.And as outlets are reporting alot of inside company tension are becoming apparent,people are laid off(hots devs got 2 days before this news got out a notice),and no they are not moved to the mobile devs,but actually fired.
Its no surprise Hots under performed (even Totalbiscuit said in the games technical Alpha that they need to step it up,and define the game).
Mike kept the game as a fan service,and didnt want to just cut it out.(probably also he was the one that green lighted WoW Classic)
But as we see aggressive moves more and more its apparent this is now Activision,no longer Blizzard.(they interduced a store mount just couple of days in WoW to try boost there end of year profit,to milk as much as possible the dire fans,and its got probably to do that 8.1. didnt atrackt alot of people to resub,the game is just a mess)
Also repeating my post from different thread,i doubt they will invest there capital from mobile games to future IP’s from Blizzard they will suck them dry and then dump them.Its AV! we are talking about here,a company that sits on IP’s like Guitar hero and Tony Hawk and is doing nothing with them for 10 years.Just re-releases Cod.

Yes, it is finally dying.

You’d have to be blind to not have forseen that, so many terrible chocies made in this game…

In the end you get what you deserve…

Yeah… IMO it would be better without bans and with all chat. Also vote kick and vote surrender.

I dont know about other mobas but LOL is not banning for being jerrk for a reason~

There is ignore button for a reason~

Game sucks. Will be 15 minute queues next year, 25 year after that then gone.

The fact you can give a company money and then they ban you for railing on Russian trolls that they put there in the first place. Seems like a seedy business model.

You realise criticism is useful, yes? If everyone who ever had a complaint about a moba went and made their own rather than talk about it we’d have 6 billion really bad mobas and no good ones, it’s fine to dislike something.

and u realize what these trolls r doing isnt criticizing but ranting and bullshi.ting

we also dont need an uncountable number of threads about it

it s okay to dislike something, it s also okay to give suggestions and it s also okay to just f.ck off if u dont like a game instead of trolling the forum and being disrespectful towards the ppl trying make the game better

they tried to listen to the community and the game got worse because they listened to ppl who have no idea about how to actually play this game.

Can i ask you then why are you posting in this thread?since you are all about constructive feedback for the game and none of it is in this thread,what are you seeking then? attention?

I dont see anyone here beeing disrespectful toward other players,and again so far your post’s are the ones 1.Not giving feedback(aside of that stop playing,but then ironically you agree “people should voice there concerns”) 2.Beeing disrespectful by throwing insults that people should “f.ck off” 3.Ironically you are the one trolling/seeking attention in this thread

As most of the people agree they where slow on implementation,and imo never fully committed to the game.After AV overtook the company they cut the game and this is where we are.
