I wouldn't be surprised if this was Gearbox itself.

You picked the wrong time to launch it. Blizzard can both out polish and out market you, even if your game is better.

Plus as a company you guys suck ass too so it's not like you get that moral support either.

Pissing content with Overwatch-aside, how is Battleborn on its own merits?

you guys should've never bought into the sjw school of design. You guys have literally no good looking waifus. Like it would be fine if you made 3 decent waifus and the rest of the females would be tumblr design but you guys botched it up.

Actually a great game been playing it almost nonstop since launch. It feels new to me and refreshing to me as opposed to a first person moba it really is a moba fps hybrid. Also people comparing it to overwatch they could not be farther apart. Honestly would recommend as it's my favorite game of the last 2 years. Also I have heard 0 sjw dialogue in it since they fired that cuck burch

Nobody is comparing this to overwatch, it's just that they were released at the same time, which is never a good thing since some people are on a budget and can only afford ONE brand new vidya gaem.

Just think about it.
Someone out there put a lot of effort into the designs of these characters and he became extremely passionate and grew attached to them overtime while thinking to himself "Yeah... one day these characters are going to be icons in the gaming industry, they are going to become so iconic people will be able to point them out and say hey! that's the guy from Battleborne!"

As to OP. It is an alright game. Not worth 60 though. I doubt you will get honest answers from /v/ since it is infested with Blizzdrones and shitposters who do it for free.

And I would say hell no to OW. The game is basically the latest Battlefront. Pretty, but no content and basic gameplay. You will be bored after 2 hours when you realize you already this.

Wait are you claiming that Overwatch is balanced? Mercy and Lucio are a must have in any higher skill team, McCree is by far the best killer in the game, Reinhardt and Winston are the best tanks easily. Everything else is either very VERY situational or just not played because it's shit.

>played battleborn beta
>"Holy shit its actually fun. The spider mission is cool, the escort not so much."
>played overwatch beta
>"I can't do shit, i getting my ass whooped"

To be fair I did like battleborn better at first. Choosing your build throughout the match makes it unique experience overall. I can actually play like i want, characters aren't lineal. You can aggro with oscar mike or hit and run. You can go on the offense and jump over the enemy line with benedict, or play the gayest way possible and live 1000hp.
Overwatch not so much. Every character is linear, there is no other way to play them. The capture the target and escort the payload isn't that interesting and could be frustrating watching the clock reset again just because some reaper got a lucky 3-4 kill.

But Overwatch does better the competitive(as competitive as a casual fps can be) team play. Characters aren't boring, better maps and gameplay synergy, female are waifuable, bastion gets the job done while mercy and reinhardth get 0 upvotes (which sucks but the mechanic is at least there to talk about). Everything Overwatch does is engaging, and battleborn fails at keeping players interest.
>>
>>337019907
No I win. You lose, it's why you think balance is poor.
>>
Battleborn is literally that one time your mom got you the wrong game on christmas.
>>
>>337019925
It's all situational. You realize a game can't be unbalanced when everybody has access to the same characters on the fly?

This literally happens every time a competitive game comes out. It's balanced by the virtue of people having access to the same characters. There are no OP characters, just UP players and OP players.
>>
>>337019952
Battleborn's pvp has amazing teamplay, thats the entire point of the game. I could go pick roadhog and carry my team in overwatch but if i pick meltdown in battleborn im going to have to rely on at least one other person to do work in the second lane.
>>
>>337020058

No. Some characters just flat out do more than others. Lucio is a flat out better healer than Zenyatta while also having a good weapon. McCree is a flat out better Hanzo because he has similar range and is hitscan.
>>
>>337020203
Widowmaker is more comparable to Hanzo and Hanzo is shit compared to her too
>>
It has the same problems I had with Destiny at release. Everyone and everything is just a bullet sponge. I really don't like FPS games with RPG stats, it just means I will be shooting at people longer than I care to.

you shouldv'e known it's not just a shooter but a dota game as well, high ttk comes with the genre

>>337020203
>No. Some characters just flat out do more than others
You are bad. I can't provide a better argument because that's all there is to it.

Good skill and team synergy are more important than any character pick.

Is Bastion good when tucked away on a defensive point? Sure. Genji's E ability will make short work of him though.

Is Reaper effecitve if he teleports into a cluster of enemies and pops his edgelord special? Yes, but put any distance between you and he's useless.

You are simply not great if you're finding repeatedly that some characters are OP.

You're just UP. Play more and learn characters and especially counters better. Don't blame your tools, everybody has access to the same ones, use the OP character if it's really OP.
>>
>>337020416
Dota has low ttk and it isn't an FPS.
>>
>>337019952
Also battleborn actually has character progression that unlocks skins gear and loot packs EACH, on top of both main and character levels it gives you tons of incentive with tona of rewards for playing every character in the game. Thats much more rewarding than overwatch's one random loot box per level shit.

It takes an incredibly long time to kill anyone in dota compared to most multiplayer games if you aren't a 6 slotted hard carry, the time feels longer in an fps because you are actually doing something instead of mindlessly spamming clicks.

You can get Overwatch cheaper than Bloodborne but neither is worth the asking price.
>>
I've been enjoying it a lot over the past days since release and I think the high HP pools make fights a lot more interesting and complex than in other games but it desperately needs balance adjustments, mainly Miko, Galileia and Marquis need a nerf. The PvE mode is bullshit though and I suggest avoiding it - it gets super boring fast.
They also introduced performance issues on some maps with AMD cards that weren't around during the open beta but then again that only affects a minority of players. ;_;

Outside Bastion i really like this game. But whoever thought a turret with insane damage was a good idea needs to die.

It's sad because this game has more game than overwatch
>>
Just wondering why people say this game, and overwatch as well, are too expensive. It has way more content than a fucking call of duty game but people don't complain about that.
>>
>>337015647

Its a lot of fun, but there are so many little broken things that need to be fixed for certain gamemodes and characters.


Marquis(sniper guy) can headglitch kill the first sentry on incursion with no repercussion, he is so well hid that you have dip behind enemy lines to flush him out, but that means going through waves of enemy minions, other players and sentry's.

I think the overall balance is fine, but some character match ups are just awful, Toby is a character who designed to camp and hold ground, while pushing back characters with his high damage rail gun. However the crux of his character is that he has a shield that makes his railgun shoot faster(otherwise any character can dodge it midrange), but the shield has so low hp that it gets destroyed after a few shots. This makes any other high damage and long range characters completely and utterly annihilate him. He is also a very large character but has lowest HP of any defender type, meaning the shield is needed to survive, but against the main type of enemies he is supposed to be fighting, he doesn't do jack shit.

Matchmaking is also really slow, you have to redo the entire process if anyone leaves the matchmaking at any point. Matchmaking builds teams first, and then builds matches, which I guess on paper is a way to increase the matchmaking speed but it leads to imbalanced teams and as I just said, if anyone leaves, the process is restarted.


There is a lot more examples of the character balance needing some fine tuning, but overall I say the game is fine otherwise. When the game works its amazing, probably one of my favorite multiplayer games when it does.
>>
>>337023325
So? Overwatch has less content that is more polished and is better overall.
Battleborn has quantity over quality and costs 1/3 more of what Overwatch does.
>>
>>337023445

>way more content then a call of duty game

Depends which developer you are talking about, Treyarc games shit all over Battleborne concerning content, I'd argue that one of the games zombie modes are more of a game then Battleborne.

I still like Battleborne, but that argument is dumb.

Okay, real talk? I like sexy babes in my games. I'll rather play Overwatch than Battleborn because none of the characters other for the Dapper Robot are interesting. Overwatch might have simpler gameplay, but I can accomedate to that if I can stare at Tracer's ass while taunting. It doesn't even need Senran Kagura kinds of pandering, but the chicks in BB are ugly as sin imo.

One thing i can hand to ASSFAGGOTS is the art direction, a lot of the females still come as pretty to look at without having to resort to fanservice

but you have those females wich the sex appeal is part of their character (i.e Ahri, Leblanc, Evelynn)

There are few class based shooters and few shooters that lack iron sights (Which have ruined the FPS genre) so I think Overwatch will carve out a little niche. Its a multiplayer only game though so it wont have co-op story mode or any real story.

Honestly, if BB chicks are mild and Overwatch chicks are fanservice/pandering something is seriously wrong. Just because some fucking tumblerina's get upset that men actually prefere to look at cute/beautiful girls doesn't mean all fictional women have to be butch and ugly.

>THEN YOU HAVE TO SPEND IN GAME CURRENCY TO ACTUALLY ACTIVATE THE GEAR IN GAME.
I fail to see how this is an issue. Please explain it to me. You equip the gear so you can make yourself better, but by activating it you have to make the choice whether or not you want to be a bit selfish to boost yourself up, or spend the money on buying turrets and super bots. I've seen teams waste all their money on gear and get trounced because the other team used it to boost their minions advance and take out a sentry.

Not really.
Objective Team Based games, OverWatch is more "Moba" like.
There is also Paladins which is superior to BattleBorn.

A friend was showing me the game, he went from optimistic to actually considering refunding the game. He invited to play Paladins, and Paladins is a cleaner looking game, with better heroes, and it is not full of annoying voice acting, and bad dialogue.

It doesn't. Maybe if it's a solo support trying to get a kill, but anyone with killing potential can easily kill someone in a few seconds max.
When I played Battleborn, people could pretty much ignore getting shot at and no one would ever die unless a melee character ran in to kill them. At one point I remember me and 2 other people were shooting at a guy and he acted like nothing was happening and then just ran off.

>>337029767
Yet as soon as people start getting levels its quite easy to burst people down in a matter of seconds. I play Orendi a lot and once got a triple kill (almost a pentakill) because she starts shitting out damage so much. A good Marquis can burn down anyone in 3 hits if hes good at aiming.

People keep saying this shit, but the simple fact of the matter is, no one fucking died in the games I played unless it was to a melee character rushing them.

During one game, I was a sniper robot against some archer woman. We never once killed each other, even though we shot the shit out of each other. If I even came close to dying (I didn't), then I just walked behind cover, waited a few seconds to regen shields, then went back to shooting her.

As the same sniper robot, I'd throw out my owl which is suppose to do damage to anyone who runs near it, but people would just run through it like nothing. They didn't care, even with 3 of them it was no threat to them at all.

The game is just balanced to give everyone fucking nerf guns.
>>
>>337015647
I played the closed beta a shitload with Orendi, which was (is?) the hardest to solo with. Would definitely pay $40 to trounce bitches with Orendi again.
