Heyyyy buddyyys!
Friends! Pals! Fellow lemmy users!
As you got invited by OP would you mind sharing your invites too? Asking for ~~a friend~~ me.
I don't have the game yet. It used to be instantaneous but now it may take several days according to some people on the internet
Thats a shame... gives us time to become your friend though, right? I heard you enjoy games
I can invite too if people need it, shoot me a DM
Shot you a message.
I love your personality and think we could be great friends, too.
Reminds me of the old Dota 2 closed beta days... Good times. Also on an unrelated note, if anyone has a spare invite my DMs are open.
Somebody needs to tell the games team that they make their own operating system. This is Windows-only. WTF.
Runs perfectly fine on Linux though, with DX11 or Vulkan. On Windows, Vulkan has some performance issues that make it quite unenjoyable, but in Linux for me it plays a lot better with Vulkan than Windows DX11.
Runs perfectly fine on Linux though
The quality of Proton is not the point, the point is that they're not dogfooding their own platform. They'll likely follow the same course as CS2: Lengthy prerelease test exclusively on Windows, then a few days before actual release someone will port the game to Linux/SteamOS and release day is the first day of the Linux port's alpha test.
How can anybody at Valve expect game publishers to take Steam Deck and SteamOS seriously if the developer of the actual platform is not dogfooding it with their own games?
Yeah I get what you mean, but with Linux gaming I think it's great enough that it runs with Proton and no one is blocking it. I also believe they'll port it to native Linux after the alpha stage is done, but remember that the game is in a closed alpha state, so at no point this should be taken as "Valve not dogfooding their platform". All we can do right now is wait and see.
Worst kept secrets, aka, clever marketing.
Hype trains a comin
Anyone interested in an invite?
- Yes, I'll remove you after the invite.
- No, we can't play together.
- Yes, drop your profile here/dm
If you don't get the mail, this is probably due to playtest schedule, they may give you access when the playtest is open, after that you can always play vs bots
Or https://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/1/4511003785958903445/
Edit: What have I done? :O so many users want to try it
They are trying to build hype. The leaks are intentional and expected.
friends for over 30 days apparently for everyone here asking for invites
Looking for new friends with benefits. If you know what I mean.
Sorry, I only date people with Deadlock invitations to share.
I vow to invite everyone from this thread if I receive an invite myself. https://steamcommunity.com/id/Wilzax/
Edit: added every friend code or profile link I could find under this post. Quick links are single-use so I couldn't add those.
Game invites take an unknown number of hours to reach your account once sent. They seem to go out in waves. Happy gaming everyone!
Did you get an invite? If yes, can you pass along here? https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197979280738/
For the unaware, Deadlock is a 3rd person shooter MOBA. It feels like a mix of Dota and Overwatch/Team Fortress
So like SMITE?
Not really, SMITE is a moba that happens to be 3rd person, Deadlock actually plays like a 3rd person shooter that needs proper aiming and headshots and a much faster pace.
I see. This is probably a pretty niche reference nowadays, but is it more similar to Monday Night Combat? That was an actual shooter IIRC and had moba mechanics like lanes and creeps.
It's actually closer to Battleborn. Like the other commenter said, it's more of a third person shooter with MOBA elements. There's focus on movement (you can dash, double jump, crouch slide, some characters fly), headshots and distance change the damage and melee/parry are just a button, while every character has guns as their man attack means. For the moba elements, it changes a bit since there's 4 lanes and it's a 6x6.
I won't say no to an invitation but I will say thank you very much instead
Icefrog is an extremely talented dev so this game is for sure to be real fun. I trust in the frog as a life long dota player
Anyone having an invite for me 🥺👉👈
Edit: To anyone giving handouts, just add me over https://s.team/p/trd-vvwh/MVFQVQTG
If I get the invite, I will invite the next person in this thread 🤝
Valve keeping up with the trend of "worst kept secrets"
Well it's very intentional I believe. You can invite an unlimited number of friends and there's no NDA or anything, they just casually ask you to not share details about the game since it's still a work in progress and in alpha, despite it looking like mostly finished to be fair. Characters are fully voiced and nothing really screams placeholder content, and most updates are regarding "balancing" and mechanic changes, just trying out what's best.
Yeah i feel like im late to the train of comments asking for a friend invite to the alpha, but if anyone wants to add me on steam and invite me that would be awesome.
Looking for an invite. Will forward to 10 others in this post if it will allow me
