ok, so apparently I have this game. How much do you have to play to get to level 20 before 18th?
It's curiously difficult to find information on how much XP is required per level up in this game. The best I could do is this forum post that tallies it up to level 10. If we reasonably assume that each level from 10 to 20 will need at least 4.75 million XP...
...Unless I'm missing some source of XP or my mathematics is horribly wrong, you're looking at hundreds of games played to reach level 20.
Add me if you guys want to play![]()
Playing with a friend/group is the easiest way to get to 20 fast.
Not only do you get easy wins but it practically doubles your exp per game.

They have said that there are no more wipes.
The previous wipe refunded everything you had spent into your blizzard account.
Hm, I found out I can download the client from Battle.net, so I'm downloading now. Am I going to be disappointed when it finishes downloading?
Is there any obvious way to get in apart from waiting to hear from Blizzard directly? Is there any big giveaway?

So wait... even though this is still alpha, our progress/levels will not be wiped even when official retail release launches??
If so, that's kinda weird and seems unfair to players who only start at retail launch
Yeah, they've said they're essentially testing out server capacity and such in prep to a move to a real (closed) Beta right now.Was the same in Hearthstone, and only purchases are guaranteed not to be wiped again. In fact, most of these kinds of games stop wiping at some point during beta (which might as well be what we're in now).
If you can downloadit on Bnet then you're in.
That is not true unfortunately. Download was completed but the Play button in the battlenet client is faded and unclickable. Mouse over text says I'm not invited. The waiting game it is then!
Weird. Did you reboot the client?
Yesterday, I noticed the icon on my client and I had the option to download it. I downloaded til it was optimal then played a bit, then stopped playing until today when the download was finished (and could still play the game). No alpha email yet, but I can play the game normally, so..
Mine didn't appear, I saw you could download the client from the battlenet website (which eventually opened the battlenet client in the desktop)
If yours randomly appeared you prolly got an invite and didn't realize. Check your spam folder?

Yeah but usually much later in betas.
But to clarify... levels in HotS might still be wiped?
Pretty sure there is one more wipe according to that Facebook promotion.They have said that there are no more wipes.

Yes, though this would be a good thing because you'd get a bunch of free gold again and your old purchases wouldn't be wiped.

Pretty sure they said the most recent wipe was the final one.

From all I've seen they intend for this past wipe to be the last one, but hold out the rights to do some kind of wipe prior to beta/launch/whatever.
IMO, another wipe would not be the most terrible thing depending on what was wiped. Account levels, I'd be cool with. Hero levels, I'm not sure...if we still have to go through talent gating on characters we had already leveled/mastered, I'm not a big fan.
I really wish instead of talent gating they'd just say "this is the easiest standard build for "hero X" to become accustomed to his/her playstyle" and unlock only those talents, instead of the random hodgepodge of talents you have to pick from at level 1 on some heroes.
Hence my comment, as that would just give everyone a bunch of gold again.
How would we get a bunch of gold? By levelling again you mean?
Anyway if they do a wipe again, they'll warn a couple of days before, no?
They would warn in advance, yes.
But by leveling, you get a couple of gold bundles during your first 10-15 levels, and also 500 gold for each hero you level to level 5.
They're not resetting purchases, so if they reset progression, that means you get all those gold boost opportunities again.
Yeah, it makes sense to wait to increase gold gains when Open Beta occurs. (Having access to the HS beta gave me enough time to get most of the playable cards early into launch without paying a dime.)Man playing with a group is night and day. 6 games 5 wins and one VERY narrow loss.
As far as getting gold, it has been nerfed significantly from the closed alpha. They really need to boost it since as it stands now even with purchases you wouldn't be able to unlock a hero for ages.
Dailies used to award 250-500 gold (with 500 quests showing up often) and there were rewards for every 5 levels (IIRC). On top of that games used to award 40 gold plus 10 for a win. Now it is 20 gold and 10 if you win.
I am surprised they haven't upped the gold but I guess they wanna keep people working until the open beta happens.

Jesus Christ. First pick too strong.There will be no bans to avoid increasing game time...
20 mins max i think.How fast are the matches in this currently, or what are they aiming for? The thing that turns me off from DOTA and LoL are the time sinks necessary to play even just one match.

Lost Vikings hero(s) sounds awesome. This is where they are reworking all the current heroes too I think? They said that currently they're all boring or something.
