Introducing the server browser

The Overwatch team just released this developer update: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_FJwx_iYDk

Key points:

-There's now a server browser coming.
-More custom options are coming to custom games.
-You can earn EXP for loot boxes in custom games now.
-You can play capture the flag as a custom game with a custom ruleset.


For my friends, this really doesn't matter but I imagine this community actually might care about these things.

It's not live yet, currently being tested in the PTR.

Certainly worth checking out.

I'll be surprised, though, if they allow us to keep any kind of persistent presence there. I'm betting that "servers" will disappear as soon as they are empty.

From what I understand that's exactly how it works currently.

Honestly the biggest thing from this is the fact you can earn lootbox EXP from custom games....
