Inferior product.
Should I bother downloading it?
>>333643650
Inferior to what? And don't say Overwatch. Overwatch is genuine horseshit.
I don't even like Gearbox.
It's fun. I can see it getting more life-span than Overwatch or that other FPS MOBA.
But they'll all die. This genre is a meme

I've played both OW and that one group in Whiterun from Skyrim. Both are good and not really comparable, but Overwatch better for me personally.
I've been really excited for it since I was in the closed beta, only problem is juggling this and overwatch at the same time.

This is exactly like the time they released the previous Beta event. The queues were completely fucked for most players for the first like 2 days.
Brad is playing it on Unprofessional Fridays right now if you want to see some gameplay while listening to Jeff shit on it.
>>333652907
Really? That's disappointing.
I'm not even really that interested in the game. But it's an open beta so I thought I'd give it a chance.
Way to win over new players, Gearbox. I'd be sure to avoid this game if I wasn't going to already anyway.

This. There's some parallels but they're ultimately different games mechanically, just with a similar feel.
>>333644179
All games die, it has nothing to do with perceiving the genre as a meme.
But yes, Battleborn will die sooner, if only because it has to deal with the bullshit idea that it's literally a third party Overwatch, plus the fact that it's a hybrid and nobody ever knows what to do with hybrid games.
I think it'll befun. ButFUCK GEARBOX!
The beta has been out since like October. I played it months ago and thought it was okay, but I played during a stress test and was supposed to get a free hero unlock but I didn't. This made me assmad so I uninstalled it.
>>333646637
Not a story, a campaign that is pretty much Halo with quirky Gearbox characters. Also, the fact that it's an FPS with minor building elements and that it doesn't completely revolve around certain equipment builds is also significantly un-MOBA-like.

Explain.
>>333644692
It's nothing really
>>333656030
In structure, I meant. You get dropped into a campaign-unique level, achieve objectives while characters chatter at you about what you need to do next and what's going on, kill shit along the way, then leave for the next level. It's even co-op. The mission TotalBiscuit showed off was an escort mission where your escort was a happy-go-suicidal spider tank bomb with turrets and shields that you could modify along the way.

It's my fault, I got into the beta for this and I thought it was a copy of OverWatch rather then a MOBA so when I saw there were lanes and shit like that I alt+f4'd and uninstalled. So sick of MOBAs, and at this point no game does anything truly new or innovating to warrant so many copies that all play almost exactly the same. Maybe the game is fun, but personally I think MOBAs are fairly stagnant and boring at this point. Some of the characters looked kinda cool though.
>>333662971
>Didn't even give the game at single chance
>Supports Overwatch
C'mon dude, don't do this
>>333663143
I don't support Overwatch either, I just thought it played like it from the little bit of footage I saw at a glance at E3 or something. Plus I had the beta for free so I figured why not.
>>333662971
You don't think an FPS MOBA offers even a slight chance of being something different? I've never played a traditional MOBA in my life so maybe my perspective is off
>>333663262
Ah, alright.
I'd say give both at least a game or two before really passing judgement. Battleborn has a coop storymode if you want to avoid the MOBA-like gamemode. I don't know what the other 2 gamemodes in it are yet
>>333662971
Try it again. It's not a standard MOBA. It's a hybrid objective-based FPS with Moba elements, and it has an entirely non-MOBA co-op campaign, too.
Like, I can barely tell any difference from LoL, DotA, or the 50 other MOBAs on Warcraft 3, but Robocraft's MOBA mode feels fairly different from all of those, and this looks even more different from that.
>>333663389
As I said I barely played, so maybe it is different in some ways but I assume atm that you still have to farm minions and buy items, so you can snowball and if you're a character gets ahead they are still going to shit on everyone. It's the one thing that I hate about MOBAs is that feeling of you don't make a difference if your team is pants on head retarded, which if you're playing a MOBA has a 110% chance of being true.
>>333663529
so it's different from what I'm saying above? If so then maybe I will try it again. As I said it was my fault I didn't enjoy it because I had a preconceived notion of what it would be and it was actually something in a genre I didn't care for.
>>333663662
There are no items. You get money from just running around shooting shit and it is only used to buy/upgrade or ignore turrets and machines around the map.
It's an FPS first and foremost. The past-pace and quick shooting is what takes spotlight. Imagine a refined Borderlands almost in terms of gameplay. IT's not slow farm and build bullshit.
>>333663937
okay that actually sounds interesting. Are enemy players bullet spongey or do they die fairly quickly?
>>333663662
>farm minions and buy items
Literally no. You escort your mooks to the grinder on the enemy's side by clearing out enemy players to make a path. The more/bigger of your mooks get ground up, the more points you get, the more points you get. Around a third of the way or half way, the grinder changes areas and this helps negate tedium of going to the same general area, as the scenery changes a little.
The only equipment in the game is acquired and equipped between games and not only are the benefits not so potent as to completely dominate how well you perform, but you can play in a way that doesn't rely on them entirely and still be credit to team.
You can get points from killing enemies or building things in the environment to help your mooks survive along the way or help you take out other enemies.
>>333663937
>>333664056
This isn't entirely true; out of game you can equip a "gear" loadout which basically is you stocking a 3 item shop for your character to access in game. So in this loadout you may put a shield+100/hp-20 item and it does nothing until you spend in match currency to activate it.
>>333643794
Overwatch is not even in same category. Battleborn is moba+fps, Overwatch is more of a class based shooter similar to TF2
>>333664056
Die fairly quickly.
Also, with regards to gear: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PVYZGOJrH4&feature=player_detailpage#t=810

>blizzdrones
>>333664056
They're not too spongy. Depends the character you play as, really. I played the DPS heavy soldiers, but they seem to go down quick enough to not be frustrating for most. Even boss enemies seemed to fall apart when getting hit by crits
>>333643502
>>333643794
I actually thought Overwatch and
Battleborn were the same game,
I'm sad now because I like Battleborn characters

cant give an opinion since didnt get in their dumb closed beta, but it certainly look more pleasing to the eye but thats all I can say.

gotcha
>>333666652
yes, damn you got me :^)
>>333646415

Does Battleborn have THICC?
I expected to hate this game because I hate Gearbox and can't stand their humor or artstyle, but it's actually pretty fun. Running around fucking people up as Rath is very entertaining and I think Meltdown is a great mode for a game like this.
I just wish I didn't hate the graphics so much. It's extremely ugly and messy looking. It lacks a polished look that I think Overwatch really does well. It looks too much like Borderlands, for obvious reasons.

Oscar Mike is objectively the best character both in-game and out.
>lanes
fucking dropped
>>333672884
Can he still stack speed mods and fly around while cloaked?
The game is supposed to be a MOBA but so far every game I've been running around as the soldier accomplishing more by treating the game like an insane CoD. Am I good?
>>333673116
If you're player hunting use Reyna instead of OM
>>333673116
I think player killing will sort of accomplish the MOBA aspects on their own. I know fuck all about MOBAs though so maybe I'm just dumb.
>>333673465
What would OM's strongsuit be then? Seems pretty easy to stomp ass with cloak+airstrike+grenade finishers or just popping around to whittle people down and running
>>333673724
Lane shutdown. You dhould only be using AOEs on the bots. Waste of the character otherwise
>>333673818
Yeah but people tend to gather up with the bots for cover. Flaming grenades are pretty hellish for anybody it seems
>>333672000
Snowballing is way less a thing in Battleborn than other MOBAs since as far as I understand it, it mostly just applies to various active or passive upgrades to your abilities, and while this does make you more lethal, it isn't by as insane a margin as standard MOBAs as skill and smarts are far more effective on the battlefield than levels and equipment.
I'm on the fence about it.
Haven't tried the multiplayer yet but both the "campaign" missions were lackluster as fuck. Which isn't surprising because i'm pretty sure the pvp multiplayer aspect is the main focus.
>>333674401
Unless it chamged a ton from the CTT, levels add a shitload of damage and health. It can be very snowbally.
>>333674187
If people are dumb enough to sit in them, yeah they work well on everything. Airstrike is at least best saved for the bots though. You can have it preped before ever coming into line of site and it triggers instantly. Once you have it one lane can be totally neglected by the other players for the rest of the game, because nothing will get through.
>>333643794
Worse than paladins or gigantic.
>>333674507
Why they even did a campaign is the greatest of mysteries
>>333674787
My mistake then, I'm a bit sleepy and I might be thinking of something else. I'm not sure why I was so sure.
Regardless there's still plenty of ways to be credit to team.
>>333674896
Cause if it didn't have one they'd have to sell the game for cheaper.
Can't have that.
>>333674824
lol
>>333674896
It'll still have some play potential in the far flung future when servers inevitably shut down. Also maybe people will want to improve their collection of stuff to bring into battle without actually having to go online to do so.
>>333665385
>>333675109
The campaigns do not seem like they'd be feasible or fun to do solo.
>>333674787
>Unless it chamged a ton from the CTT, levels add a shitload of damage and health. It can be very snowbally.
I'd actually be far more interested if they leave that "level up" shit out. It doesn't even add anything to the game except the snowballing itself.
>>333656206
