How many of you managed to get in on the closed beta?Is it worth 60 bucks.
RIGHT IN THE SHITTER
>>334424540
I'm in and no, it's not
Multiplayer only, shallow casual multiplayer shooter
It's worth $20 at best, but they're charging $60 for it and it has microtransactions
It honestly isn't even worth $20.
Why is everyone saying it's 60?
I bought it for 40. I have fun with it, but it's not for everyone.
inb4 viral marketer.
Its not 60 dollars, its 40
and maybe. If you play solo, fuck no. Maybe with a friend its worth 40, and that is IF you like versus MP shooters.
>>334424796
What manga is that?
well it depends
do you enjoy the type of game overwatch is? do you think it looks like a game you'll really enjoy? if so, it's probably worth 60 dollars.

>tfw I look like a boy version of tracer
>>334424540
Almost no one. Very very few people are in the beta, anon, as evidenced by its 80+ minute queue times.
>>334424796
Secret plot chick looks and acts nothing like Tracer, and pretty sure secret plot as not before the internet.

It's basically vanilla TF2 with waifus instead of hats
>preordered
>no invite
fuk u blizzard
I got in.
I like it quite a bit, and the variety is very nice, but I'm not so sure about dropping even $40 on it. I really think they should've just made it F2P.
>Been wanting an invite to check it out since you could sign up for the beta
>Still not in the beta
Just cuck my shit up.
>been invited to several tests or something
>havent tried it yet
Is it still 20 tick?
I am confused. How is a dom muscle head gym teacher nympho at all similar to a lithe playful british chick?
>>334425179
Who is this jizz wiz
>>334424540
It's a value title at best. 20 bucks would be charging too much.
If they'd gone the TF2 route with straight microtransactions, nobody would protest. Instead, they're charging normal game prices, with enough microtransactions to get under your skin, but not enough to actually be worthwhile.
And for some reason, Blizzard has already shown that they can do the Free to Play with microtransactions model, they just don't WANT TO here.
>>334424540
I only became interested in the game because of the Tracer controversy and now I have it preordered because she's cute as a button. I even bought it at gamestop exclusively because I get a Tracer poster.
>>334425840
>There are people on /v/ who have never read secret plot or deep
Literally akin to not having played super mario bros. Get your fucking life together, that shit was one of the first Japanese porn comics most people ever saw
>>334425542
Yeah, this kills me. Not a very good indication of how players will get treated later on.
I guarantee you that at some point they'll give away an exclusive item with NEW accounts only with no way for older accounts to get it.
>>334425939
Nah I'm totally fine with having all the heroes and maps unlocked instead of hiding them behind paywalls

>>334427173
Sorry for what? Not like I paid for it. They just gave me an invite. Finally some kind of reward for being a good goy and playing WoW for years.
>>334424729
if they offered a VERY open world editor and custom severs then I would pay $60 since I would probably get a good +100 hours of enjoyment out of that. Any game that gives me a 100 hours of enjoyment is well worth 60, but this bare minium shit of playing on official blizzard servers only will probably last me 20-30 hours tops.
>>334424796
Bought Doom and Battleborn instead. Overwatch seems like it would just get boring after a few days. I can see myself grinding new gear in Battleborn and at least Doom has a campaign with a decent enough multiplayer.
I might grab it on sale down the road who knows.
>>334427809
There just doesn't seem to be much reason to play unless you really find the shallow gameplay fun. If it had a map editor and an SC2 style arcade or something with custom game modes, that'd be cool - but I don't see that happening.
Oi, mates, suddenly I'm having seconds thoughts about getting Overwatch, tbqh.
>>334427809
>blizzard
>wanting custom server
You think you do, but you dont
>>334427319
He means the game is 40 dollars, retard.
>>334428017
It's really weird how things worked out. I was so hyped for Overwatch when it was announced, but my hype for it has just steadily went down over the last year or so. Meanwhile, I was convinced Battleborn would be shit because I hate Gearbox, their design philosophy, and their sense of humor. I tried out the beta and had way more fun than I think I ever would with Overwatch.
>>334426894
>what is brummy
or even scouse for that matter
>>334424540
i was in the closed beta, i got bored at lvl 50 so i started to rent my account, the account got banned but ive made 300$ in a week
>>334424540
Blizzard has to be the reigning champions of misleading advertising.
>cool looking characters, and intense CG trailers
>games themselves are aggressively boring and mediocre
Why are they even bothering with the expressive characters, if they're just going to stuff them into a mediocre TF2 ripoff?
>>334428007
>Doom having decent mp
>Battleborn not getting old fast
I'm not touching any of the three, but if I had to choose, Overwatch looks like the lesser evil.
>>334425030
>80+ minute queue times.
Takes me about 10-15 seconds.
>>334428171
>Meanwhile, I was convinced Battleborn would be shit because I hate Gearbox, their design philosophy, and their sense of humor. I tried out the beta and had way more fun than I think I ever would with Overwatch
Are you me? I played Battleborn, too. It's a pretty nice game. But at the same time, it makes me kinda sad. I had hopes for Overwatch.
>>334424540
>$60
Why are a lot of people getting this wrong? The PC has two versions, the $40 base edition and the $60 premium with extra skins. The console version only has the $60 version.
>>334427978
>Eating noodles straight out of the fucking pan
I don't know whether to be disgusted or aroused.
>>334424796
awesome, i was just fapping to secret plot earlier today
>>334424540
I think its fun but for $60 no, Id pay 30 for it but I think 60 is asking too much.
>>334424796
Whoever put that together is a massive autist.
>>334428397
Opinions, all fair. Gigantic is the best Hero Shooter around anyways and it might not even get out of closed beta.
Played it for two hours, uninstalled.
Would play casually with friends if it was F2P with unlocks or some shit, but $40/60 is a joke.
Game is super simple and made by Blizzard so it will succeed. Good for it. I personally did not have fun with the game at all.
>>334428425
>$40
Still not worth it
>>334424796
Probably "heavily inspired".
Someone sent this to a gaming news site yet?
It's fun but I don't know if it's $51 canuck dollars fun
Might just buy it off CDKeys
>>334428413
>>334428171
Battleborn is pretty fun for what it does, but to me it looks like a game that will get old faster than Evolve did.
>>334428745
And Overwatch would not?
>>334428573
>no chat functions
>good
pick oneliterally the only thing keeping the game from being fun
>>334428745
I don't know, as an owner of Evolve, that shit got old halfway through the first match.
18 hours in the Battleborn Open Beta so far, still having fun. The asking price is a bit fucking ridiculous though, and I can't help but feel that while it won't die off THAT fast, that it will die soon.
So conflicted.
But yeah, I was hyped up for Overwatch until I actually played it. At least the beta saved me $40.
>>334428012
well tf2 could be called shallow yet alot of people have several hours on it.
And no, a map editor is so fucking limiting man, the sc2 arcade is so limiting with what you can do.That one of the reasons why the arcade was dead on launch. Valve's philosophy of completely open design has been a huge factor in the success of their games that have it. You can't have great creative works with authority controlling it.
>>334428063
why on earth would you want to have an unstifled opportunity for creativity anon? Aren't we good enough for you? Our dedicated developers are completely devoted to giving you only the best possible, and that means only the best...
It's 40 unless you're choosing to pay for the shittier console version
>>334428853
Maybe it would, but at least it has asses to appeal to me. Ultimately both look underwhelming and overpriced.
>>334428745
>>334428853
The biggest problem with these are the pay models. They don't feel like sixty dollar games (Overwatch is a locked sixty dollars if you're on consoles). Everything about them is F2P except you have to pay for it, just like with SFV. I guess this will be the new model for multiplayer games because you get all the revenue of a normal game and F2P game in one.
Well I got into the weekend and was getting into games pretty quickly just 20 minutes ago but now can't find shit
>>334424796
mayumi a shit

>>334429114
>playing on consoles

>>334428996
And yet I'd still rather play even vanilla TF2 than this. I'm unable to play more than a couple rounds before getting sick of it.
Personally I just don't like the whole "moba abilities" and "everyone has a game-changing ultimate" shit. It feels like it takes more away from the game than it truly adds.
>>334429114
>Everything about them is F2P except you have to pay for it, just like with SFV.
But that's wrong. Both games come with all characters for free.
In Battleborn, you have to unlock them by playing the campaign or leveling up, and the season pass gives you the five upcoming heroes instantly, otherwise you unlock them like the rest.
Future Overwatch heroes will be immediately available for free as well.
Meanwhile, SFV characters cost money, are unlocked via Season Pass, or can be purchased with in-game currency after winning about a billion gamesgit gud.
>>334429179
>>334429232
How many times has this piece of shit been in betas? How can they have server problems still?
>>334429298
Nice meme. Doesn't stop the argument that it is sixty dollars for a large portion of the fanbase and still just as devoid of content.
>>334428906
Use a mic. Gigantic is so fast paced you should literally never be able to type in chat unless you are dead.
It's like trying to type while playing Bloodline Champions, it's just impractical.
>>334429298
>not being able to comprehend what you read
It's fun, but why are the fucking matches so short? I feel like an ADD kiddy because the matches all seem to be 10 minutes or less. You spend nearly half that in between matches if you take into consideration the prep time, post match screen, and queue. Are there plans to have modes/maps that are longer?
>>334424540
No virtual item is worth $60.
Not even a poor fag. I just don't understand the logic behind that shit.
>>334429393
I think this is the second large scale beta that isn't just high profile twitch/youtube players or the media.
>>334429467
It's designed in such a way that matches only last a few minutes. Every Blizzard game except Starcraft now is designed to be played in short bursts to appeal to the casual ADD market.
>>334429580
But all the perishable good in your life are the same as "digital". You cant resell a Mcdonald burger either. It does not gain in value.
>>334429418
The game literally has no built-in chat features. You have to download a 3rd party piece of shit and add people, meaning no talking to randoms.
>>334424796
I gotta reread that some time.
>>334429114
>Everything about them is F2P except you have to pay for it, just like with SFV
SFV fucks you over with more paid characters and plenty of content that wasn't in the game at launch but really should have been. Overwatch seems relatively complete, with characters and maps being free updates. It's not a free to play game just because everyone expected it to go the fuck me in the ass f2p model like HotS. Though I agree 60 is too steep and even 40 is a bit much. But I'd spend 20-30 to get a complete multiplayer game I have fun with.
Preordered like a good little goy but no beta yet, shilled to some friends and got them on board too.
The origins edition is pointless.
>>334429467

I almost gave up on this game after the pose drama
>>334425604
>I really think they should've just made it F2P.
Then it would cost $240 and you still wouldn't have all the heroes, instead of $40.
>>334429841
Why?
>>334429841
>I have shit taste: the post
>>334429685
Are there plans for custom matches where you can fuck with the settings? I really had high hopes for this game and was hoping it could fill the void that TF2 left. I don't necessarily need a 2 hour match on 2Fort, but at least let me play for 20+ minutes.
>>334429706
I'm not saying to buy a cheeseburger. But there's a plethora of free games to choose from that you can play while waiting for the inevitable price drop that will come later on.
You're not losing anything by waiting a little longer to get this instead of spending $60 on release.
>>334425542
They already got your money, they don't need to give you a taste.
Honestly you are a fool but its your money.
>>334429467
Welcome to modern multiplayer games. They need to be designed with Twitch and little kids in mind. Kids and frat boys can't think for more than ten minutes so they need their epic matches to be short and sweet.
Game will also probably be devoid of much matchmaking and communication options to so as to not offend people. Hearthstone is one of the most barebones major multiplayer games I've ever seen.
It's worth $10-$20.
Not $40.
I'd be ecstatic if they slowly rolled more MMO elements back into it over the years. But as it stands, it's just an TF2 clone.
RIP project Titan.
>>334429945
That's not Gigantic.
>>334429580
Lets say you buy an indie for $10, and you get 10 hours of enjoyment of that before you decide to uninstall it and forget it even existed (just saying that to make a point) would you say that it was worth it? Well if you spent $60 on a game and you got 60-100 hours of enjoyment out of it, wouldn't that be worth it? Yeah most games that go for the whole triple AAA blockbluster $60 bullshit aren't worth it, but if its a game like old school WoW or something where i get loads of fun and lots of it, then its well worth it to pay $60.
>>334430147
Ah, misunderstood the conversation.
>>334430023
Didn't have fun. It was better than the Doom MP beta, but that isn't a very difficult goal.
>>334430137
Does this not bother people? Am I a minority in wanting longer matches? This isn't a criticism I've seen that often so maybe it's just me.

Are they going to add CTF? It's objectively the best multiplayer mode and it seems sad that it's not included. Why don't modern games do CTF anymore?
I've played about 10 rounds today. It's fun.
Probably not worth $40-$60.
D.VA abest
>>334430193
I don't think I did a good job at constructing my main point but what I was implying wasn't that you shouldn't buy it, but in the modern day there's so many free games you can choose from to scratch that same itch until the price is dropped to something more reasonable than $60. You can get so many things for $60 rather than just a single game.
>sign up first day
>check to see if I got in after every wave
>didn't even get into the last stress test weekend
At this rate I just hope I get into the open beta
Zarya is fun, feels like you are always relevant with the damage, shields and ult.
>>334430423
Probably. I think they would have to balance it out heavily with all the movement skills in the game
Healing in Overwatch is even larger thankless job than in MMOs. You'd think someone would toss me a commend after a match for healing 60%+ of the overall damage and allowing a successful defend.
>>334430516
Just to make sure, you are checking the BNet program, right? They don't email you about getting in. It'll give you the option to install if you're in.
>>334430136
Not that anon but I don't understand all the hate towards people who preorder.
If they are giving me something extra at the cost of waiting, and I am interested in that extra. Why shouldn't I get it?
>Inb4 shaddy business
Not really, if the skins we're made to incite preorders or people buying an "premium product" it's a total legit practice.
That's Like getting mad at someone for buying a better car than you.
>>334430702

>>334430829
You're right. I see they sent me one at 3am this morning. I know yesterday I checked and was invited around 10pm and hadn't received an email from them yet.
>>334430297
I think it bothers a lot of people, but with games with normie appeal you'll be in the majority whenever you desire something that will make the game more complex or less bite sized
>>334429393
>How many times has this piece of shit been in betas?
How many times a game entered beta is irrelevant to server capacity issues, which is the point of this weekends test you nimrod.

>>334429467
I've complaind about it too, but fuck us I guess
It's casual shit. Made by ActiBlizzard to boot. Not even worth acknowledging.
>>334430620
They shouldn't. Do you send thanks to everyone for shooting the opponent?
The thing I don't get about you insecure faggots is why you think you're the special one for doing your job. Every team needs a tank, a healer, and a damage dealer. That's just how shit works. All three is harmony and missing any of those components can make the team not as effective.
You aren't special because you held left click like the rest of your team. You just did the task you signed up for and you probably didn't do it any better than someone else would have since there was probably only one healer on the team so you've nothing to compare it to.
>>334430757
Pre-ordering is bad.
pre-ordering a game from a company who has never made a first person shooter is crazy.
And I don't hate them for preordering, I just think they are mindless sheep.
>>334424540
Played one match.
Its slightly slower, has tremendously fewer weapons than, half the player count of, and feels more casual than Team Fortress 2. This is the lowest common denominator FPS I have ever played and there is zero depth whatsoever. I am actually disgusted.
>>334431597
They're just cranky and eager for attention since they haven't gotten the proper discipline they crave from their tanks.
Anyone else feel like certain, squishier heroes could use a slightly larger health pool?
Or that Bastion needs a damage nerf?
Battleborn is better in almost every way.

>>334429467
I actually like the short matches, and I honestly think you need to just play more, there's some long fuckin matches too. I like that you can get absolutely crushed because you and your team were lazy and let them gang a point without defending.
>>334432180
all characters have multiple abilities, would you be happier if solider 76 could switch to a rocket launcher instead of firing them from his rifle?

>>334431796
theres an open beta anyways, if its bad just refund
>Is it worth 60 bucks
No.
If you buy it immediately and lasts the usual amount of time the average multiplayer game lasts (six months) or more then it's worth 40.

>>334437062
If you don't like the genera that is ok. No need to bash it just because of that.
I personally like mp3 shooters because I don't have too much time to play nowadays. They are usually a nice pick up and play to kill time.
Heck I had more fun with platoon than with any other game in recent years.

My friends and I got into the beta and we played for a good two hours, it was a fair bit of fun. It'd be good to play with friends.
D.VA is a best, pudge is a champion for bitches, reaper is for edgy kids.
>>334438704
Splatoon actually had a unique idea and nice weapon selection. This has nice character selection but nothing really feels whole.
>>334438863
>pudge

holy fuck.
kill yourself.
>>334438863

The game is pretty disappointing desu senpai
Like it's a good shooter, like on par with Monday night combat
The only good thing about it is the SFM porn
but as a blizzard game? it's an embarasment, like I think they're only the TF2 Hat Community with this
>>334438956
everyone is going to call him pudge and this game is going for the moba crowd
>>334439080
Yeah, once again, kill yourself.
>>334438035
I honestly don't know any other males so I just picked one off the top of my head
I am in the beta, and it's definitely not what I was expecting, I haven't picked it up for a while. I have over 1000 hours of TF2, and even though it and overwatch are class-based shooters, they play very differently.
Overwatch achieves a weird feeling of dying too fast and too slow.
Infinite ammo results in constant spraying for area control, so unless you have a very competent healer, you're often struggling not to take chip and then die from a single, hard hit. So playing safe, controlling area with spam, and punishing are rewarded heavily.
Outplaying multiple enemies is pretty difficult in this game, to a degree that is not very good for fps's.
Every class that has good killing power has too low of a health pool to pull off outplaying multiple people at the same time. The only times you can really do this is with your ultimate, which is flawed, because when you're on the receiving end, you don't really feel like you necessarily got outplayed. You lost the life feeling, well there's one of the enemy team's 2min insta-kill cooldown.
I don't really like the cool-down system for a lot of characters. For some characters, it doesn't feel like you're in control of your character all the time and for others, it leads to stalling until your shit is back up, or else you will be significantly disadvantaged.
Tf2 far superior, fluid movement and more satisfying guns.
>Tracer thread
>no asses
This is, by far, the worst thread in /v/ in the last five years.
>>334439282
>worst thread in the last five years
not even the last week ever since some shitty private realm got taken down
>>334439374
come on, anon. Dont ruin my bait.
>>334439175
This. Can't really say I'm surprised though, Blizzard hasn't been able to make a half decent game in about a decade.
Only Valve is capable of making FPS games these days, everything else is just shit.
>>334439175
the maps are terribly designed too esp. when compared to something like tf2 or quake, it's clear that very little thought was given to what the classes do when making them and things were just kind of thrown wherever
it's a lot of little issues that add up to a pretty meh experience and shows blizzard has no idea what they're doing with an fps game and didn't hire anyone who did
>>334439567
>Only Valve is capable of making FPS games these days, everything else is just shit.
OH, MAN.
I'VE ACTUALLY NEVER SEEN A POST AS DELUSIONAL AS THIS ONE.
>>334439175
Say it ain't so
>>334439731
Name something better than TF2 and CS:GO.
Im in and I didnt know it was closed
first time playing and im enjoying smashing shit with hammer shield guy
>>334424540
I got into the beta.
Probably won't play it, though.
Too busy playing DkS3.
Is itfun?
>>334439920
csgo is trash but it's not like anyone is really trying to make fps games, unless you're call of duty they don't sell
>>334439920
"9 years ago" is not "these days", and CSGO is mediocre.
>>334439175
I agree with the cooldowns its ok in DOTA but in a FPS when i'm aiming and mashing my fire hammer thing and its one second off cooldown that's awkward
>>334440056
>>334440140
A 9 year old game is better than this turd, and CS:GO is the number one played game next to Dota 2.

>>334440217
And Quake 3 Arena is better than that, but we're discussing new First Person Shooters.
>CS:GO is the number one player...
Millions of flies.
As far as "good" multiplayer FPS these days, all I can think of is Natural Selection 2, Chivalry, Toxxikkk(?), Low Light Combat, R6 Siege, and Sub Rosa.
I dont give 2 shits about the game. I just want more short films
>>334425604
>I really think they should've just made it F2P.
and have it immediately overrun by underaged children and hackers? fuck that, F2P multiplayer games are cancer.
>>334440768
I want more D.Va
>>334428358
Because setting and character beats gameplay all day erryday when it comes to sales.
>Game only really allows for one support
>My friend already plays Mercy, who I wanted to play
Welp there goes that game
>>334440768
Why? They're complete shit in comparison to the "meet the" series. Like a bunch of suits made a checklist on how to market a shitty animated movie.
Pretty fun so far but none of the origin edition skins are good enough for me to drop an extra $20.
>>334441412
UHNG
>>334425604
The only way they would get money from the game is selling characters and overpricing skins.
They need to rethink movespeed, health on characters and redo the map designs with all the current movement abilities in.
I feel like we will and already are hitting a point where they need to reuse stuff. Like Hanzo comes out, has climbing walls as his movement ability. Then later they add Genji, who has horizontal movement tied to one of his attacks already, but THEN he should also have Hanzo's movement ability AND be able to jump mid-air.
>>334424540
30 would be the safe move.
40 means they expect a lot of sales on hype. Trend is hype games die less than a month in. They either don't care about the game long term or they have terrible people in their business department
>>334439920
Battleborn.
>>334441632

I instantly dropped Battleborn when it was way too MOBA for me
>escorting minions
>turrets for some reason
>matches take forever
>eventually if you hit like 9-10 your death timer is like 40-50 seconds
That kinda death timer works in Dota or League, not in a first person game where you don't always have full vision of what happens
>>334441320
Why not take turns?
>>334441412
I just like to have it all. But i agree that the skins could have been better.
I literally could not believe it when I opened up Bnet just to make a quick check to find an install button. I gave up a long time ago and pretty forgot about the game.
>>334429393
>Blizzard game
>Console fanbase
That is like saying CSGO's console version had a huge potential fanbase. It fucking NEVER did and never had a slight chance of succeeding on console
>Dr. Winston, I'm McCree
Seriously, Blizzard? He even say "HOL UP"
You really want the meme audience don't you?
>>334441412
>Having a screenshot that low res
Lets fix that.
Movement speed is so fucking slow yet characters are so squishy
Really strange game
