What's the point of loading screens now?
I have nearly 100, and I never get to "use" them, whats the point anymore?

They're still used in demo mode. I got a bunch of loading screens too but personally I'd rather have quicker/nearly instant loading versus staring at a loading screen for 2 minutes.

Not only do you not have to deal with people who fail to load now but you also don't have to deal with people who take like 1:59 to load and you know they're gonna spend at least half of the game DC'd.
i really want them to add just like 2-3 sec another loading screen . so u can see them. :( my fave thing before games were to see the loading screens . the art is amazing .

I appreciate the new quick load system, I really do, but this is still a middle finger to me, I spent good money supporting the game by buying them, and they are now useless, seriously dont give me that "demo mode" crap.

Well if your goal is to view your loading screens then that's what you need to do. Most people are happy spending less time viewing a loading screen and more time playing a game. :)

and you can keep them, nobody's stopping you from playing solo bot matches.

yep, anyone who wants to wait 2 minutes just to see a person drop out is insane.

I'm not saying I want to wait 2 minutes. I want them to be useful, for example they could put them in the background of the hero select screen instead.

At least the most of them are cheap.
