Orcs Must Die! Unchained Enters Second Beta, Adds More Character Progression, New Map

Couldn't agree more with the previous comment. Very pay to win and extremely unbalanced as things stand. The only way to alleviate this is if OMD: U gets a critical mass of players when it goes gold so that matches can consist of comparable levels. However, the learning curve of this game is quite steep and I'm not sure if this game will ever have a mass audience. Everything I've seen of the development seems to be catering to the hardcore and not in building a game that is simple to pick up, yet difficult to master.

Hopefully OMD3 is on the horizon and in a similar format as the first two. It wasn't broken so not sure why they're trying so hard to fix it.

I was one of the first people ever invited to the alpha/beta of this game...

I have to say, it is extremely pay to win, and if you don't play A LOT at the beginning you will be crushed by people that have played a lot already and have unlocked everything.

It's just one of those games where you either pay or you get demolished for 1000 games until you are at the level of the higher end people, so if you want to enjoy this game, prepare to get stomped until you have enough skulls for high end stuff.

It's a very innovative game, and I love the series, it makes me sad that this game is so pay to win. A lot of others feel this way too, most people quit quickly after installing which makes it even harder to find matches vs people with nothing (just like you).
