Will it be the titanfall of 2016?
>10 million sales

titanfall 2 will be the titanfall of 2016
No, it's going to be a big success. There's no way around that
No this is made by blizzard, their games don't fail. Never underestimate blizzdrones
>>337636851
Titanfall was a success, im not refuting it.
>>337636863
>Never underestimate blizzdrones

That's what saddens me. They will buy any steaming pile of shit Blizzard offers up.

Overwatch is the next Diablo 3. Blizzard's hugely hyped game that sells big, people like for 3 months, then stop playing because despite its polish it's actually kind of mediocre.
>>337637210
But none of that is true
>>337637081
Except Overwatch isn't shit. The only Blizzard games I've ever played is Diablo 2 and Overwatch, so I'm not even shilling here.
>>337637134
Im not saying it wont sell
Im saying it wont have staying power
/v/ seems really happy about the game arguing about whether or not bastion is a big deal. A pretty good sign considering Evolve just gets meme'd on for being another sinking ship on a clear day.
>>337637223
That doesn't describe Diablo 3 at all.
>>337636635
Didn't play titanfall so no idea. But I really enjoyed overwatch beta. I can tell you that 4 months is a really long time to be playing 1 game straight.
It does feel a little mediocre. I feel that after a month or two of gameplay the shine will come off and we'll realize how shallow the gameplay tends to be. Still gonna buy it tho.
>>337637347
D3 had a death and revival. The dlc was so good people started playing again.
>>337636635
Who plays 1 game for 4 months?
>>337636635
nah. blizz's viral marketing budget is insane!
>>337637356
I got titanfall at launch and it was super fun. This was before all the new cods had the parkour stuff, but outside of the literal autoaim pistol, the game felt really fast and the shooting was really crisp. It felt like an arena shooter more than an arcade shooter.
Im getting the same vibes from Overwatch. Extremely fun for 4 months-ish and then everyone moves on to other things.
Both are definitely worth the asking price at launch imo
>>337637210
>Starcraft 2 dlc sales are abysmal
Good thing LotV sales were good.

>>337637885
I didn't play Titanfall cause at the time of release, I didn't have the time.
What can Overwatch do to keep its palyer playing? From what I looked around on Titanfall, the reason it did not keep up was because the company didn't do things to keep players continuously interested in the game over a long period of time.. I.e. events, maps, etc.
>>337637134

titanfall was cool but i hated how its so focused on shooting AI instead of real players
Except Blizz has a totally different approach.
Most AAA devs use a franchise to create a number of titles on a regular schedule.
Modern Blizz makes financial "pillars" and supports one game per franchise for a number of years.
Open up the battle.net launcher and you'll see what I mean. Those are Blizz's pillars.
>>337636790
This.
>>337638059
What does TF2 do to keep its playerbase? It has the same type of objectives and gameplay
>>337638157
How safe are those? I've never bought from one but I'm a bit of a poorfag right now so I'm considering it

HotS is probably the weakest one but it still receives support so there's that at least. Plus it's given some inspiration to the other games, like SC2 with co-op and Legion with new spells.
>>337638059
I won't use hats or cosmetic as an excuse for reasons I am no longer interested in TF2.
I feel I played it to the extent I could have played it and am looking for something similar but different.
I still haven't decided to buy Overwatch, but every time I finished playing a game and went about my day, I couldn't wait to go back and play some more.

I used to say that this game was only good for porn, but when I tried the open beta I had genuine fun and am looking forward to the game.
Funny thing is, I had low expectations for the game since I didnt even like TF2 and I deeply dislike HotS, which I tried 2 days before the beta. The game was a really good surprise for me.

Are you Patrick Star? Because it sounds like you live under a rock.
Overwatch has more staying power than TF2 currently. Overwatch plans to release many more heroes instead of guns and hats. Far more variety and content than TF2. TF2 has a disgustingly small amount of content added rarely.

>>337639007
Nothing has more staying power than TF2. People will be playing TF2 long after Blizzard is gone. Even when civilization has decayed into a Fallout state, there will still be a TF2 server with players.
>>337638414
modded servers and custom maps. i only play tf2 surf or troll kids on minecraft trade servers when i get bored.
>>337638965
It's no LeL or Dortuh 2 for sure, but it's got a fuck ton of players. Twitch viewership is low as shit, but so was Overwatch. It's fun to play, but zero fun to watch.

Both competitive and casual players will be pleased.
I just hope they introduce a dota 2 style report system in conjunction with VAC
>>337639179
Forgot about about custom maps. This keeps the game from getting old
>>337639134
The player numbers has been pretty much stagnant since 2012 even 2007 if you ignore peaks during updates. As for how much player turnover happens, no clue.
>>337636635
Yes. Game will be dead in a couple of months. Blizz will have made all their money back by then. A good amount of people will regret buying into hyped shit.
The games longevity is kind of iffy considering how shallow the gameplay is.
All they can add is new heroes, maps and game modes.
None of the balance changes will be very exciting because each hero's' playstyle is already narrow.
The game is literally running on waifu power.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDfPCxVMrY4&feature=youtu.be&t=9
>People actually think a game like this will survive with no community content or support.
>>337638128
Personally, I think it was that they failed to make the most of the mechanics. Here they had something with a rather unique playstyle, and it was shipped with your standard CoD game modes.
I think because of this, the average player played the game like another CoD, rather than the way it should have been played.
It took them far too long to release new game types and by the time they did, it was too late.
>>337639591
The gameplay's depth comes from swapping heroes to counter other heroes. If you don't think adding new heroes will add depth, then maybe this isn't the game for you.
>>337638965
I manage to find games fairly quickly for a dead game.

>Overwatch plans to release many more heroes instead of guns and hats. Far more variety and content than TF2. TF2 has a disgustingly small amount of content added rarely.
TF2 already has a bunch of variety because there's so many items for each class that alters their gameplay significantly.
Overwatch's problem is that each hero can only really function at one role and is pretty ineffective at everything else.
And the TF2 class counterparts in Overwatch are pretty much 'that class for retards'.

I haven't enjoyed a blizzard game since Wrath of The Lichking. Diablo 3 was garbage, HOTs was awful. Sc2 just became worst and worst until I quit. Hearthstone is pay to not spend a year grinding. But I genuinely love Overwatch.
>>337639591
But balance patches have swayed the meta a lot so that isn't true.
>>337639720
Nah man, Overwatch's 'counter picking' is kind of a joke.
McCree and Solier 76 are always a good pick regardless.
Mercy and Lucio are the best healers, Symmetra and that Zen guy aren't relevant.
You pretty much HAVE to have a Reindhardt if you're pushing an objective, he does everything better than Winston does.

>>337640574
He sources the artists in the credits.
Maybe. It's pretty fun, but I'm not sure it has the depth or variety to keep going for longer than a few months. The simple characters are one thing (that I for one don't mind), but there were only two modes in the beta, and what felt like only a handful of maps. It's nice that you can set up custom matches and party up, though. I don't think Titanfall had that at launch.
Also as a side note, does anyone feel kinda disappointed at how peripheral the lore seems to be? They built this whole setting and premise around the concept of the Overwatch initiative and a bygone era of heroes, and crafted all these different colorful characters that *seem* like they could have a lot of individual backstory, but they're doing basically nothing with it. All we get in-game is one or two lines of pre-match dialogue between some characters. The rest (like the flavor text on the website and the brief comics) are external.
>>337640435
The only counter-picking I've seen is Genji vs Bastion.
>>337639720
>>337639803
To be fair he's wrong. What's McCree's counter pick? What's Genji's counter? What's Soldier's counter? What's Mei's counter?(inb4 Tracer.) Tracer is good if you're a solo Mei which you don't have to be. What is Junkrat's counter? What is D.va's counter(everyone.)

What gave TF2 staying power? It had far fewer characters, maps, game modes at launch.
>>337640921
almost 0 competition
a lot fewer multiplayer games at the time
>>337640921
Depth is in mechanical skill as opposed to learning matchups/teamcomps
its being balanced exactly like wow arena, with a specific attention on the validity of team compositions within a small fighting area
in other words, no balance attention is being given to any 1v1 fights
anything you get will be from Blizzard, and it will be balanced for esport point capture and nothing else
the game isn't just going to die, its already dead
I'm not opposed to its success, but I already know what kind of people are designing it
This game will be a hit I feel. Arts great, story is cool, the gameplay is smooth and dynamic.

There was an insane amount of community support for TF2, minigames, 24/7 servers with people's favorite maps, chill servers where people just fuck around and shoot the shit, along with updates here and there with maps, and hats
But the community really did it, Overwatch doesn't have that, no server browser, no mods, the devs are the only ones who will add content to the game.

had precisely the opposite experience in every way
overshit quickly degenerated into 'I have to play the tank or healer because everyone else is selfish'
'I have to play lucio because he is OP and the enemy team is also using lucio'
'I have to switch characters every single time the enemy decides to start using a bastion'
'I can never play the characters I actually like, I have to always counterpick'
then I went back to TF2, got on scout, and basically had a great encounter in every single fight I was in, without really needing to switch characters except when I felt like it
I can never play OW again

First you need to only stun and fan once as long as you aren't stupid with your recoil. Second, again there is an entire team Mei isn't an assassin she is perfectly fine standign with her team making the McCree counter play a little worst.

>Nigga what? In what way, does reinhardt kill someone who has sprint?
By having a heug health pool, a ranged nuke, and a charge. Soldier is piss easy to deal with as any tank, all he does is chip damage to your health
>Reaper does not in anyway out do Mei in a 1v1
Reaper's shift purges Mei's slow, allowing him to reposition. All it takes is 2 aimed shots from his shotguns and she's gone
>Fair enough, but he could also just choose to ignore her and fight the other 5 people?
He won't be able to go outside without having rockets crammed down his throat though
>She dies to everyone that's the meme.
If the D-Va player is shit, yes.
>>337639720
They need more dynamic maps or game modes. Wow a new hero added into payload, changes fucking everything. Not buying the game purely because of 12 shit maps and 3 bad game modes. They need to rework their overtime system too, KOTH is a meat grinder at the end because its constantly overtime with 99%-99%

or that you have no concept of what you're talking about. If my team is incompetent and I have to personally counter the engineer with the scout I can just temporarily switch to cola

Left shift heals her for a lot and she can still fight him if he purges.

Again sprint, charge isn't going to catch you unlessyou're dumb.
>All my info comes from http://www.owfire.com/overwatch/counters so take it how you will
Doesn't mean you're helpless like if you're reaper against a McCree. That's a hard counter but the other counters leave room for the other one to still win. McCree shits on tracer but Tracer can also win if she blinks his flashbang. However I'm sure the site shows McCree > tracer

Keep dreaming.
>>337638508
yep.
WoW is going nowhere, and given the abysmal long term of Black Desert, people are most likely going to be back for Legion
Diablo 3 is kinda old hat at this point. But they probably have another expansion up their sleeves or are working on getting Diablo 4 out within the next two years to keep that going.
Starcraft is still coasting on the "new" DLC and still literally the only RTS game with some kind of active development going on, so RTS fans (and the online scene) are still going to support it because there's literally nothing left.
Hearthstone is a massive cash cow. Just wrapped up a new expansion and expecting to see another one probably by the end of summer.
HotS is probably their only active game that no one cares about, because all the "pro" assfaggot players are still on LoL or Dota, and all the scrubs spend a few hours and a few bucks on heroes just to turn around and go back to LoL or Dota because that's where all the pro players are.
and now we have Overwatch to round out the FPS crowd. So long as they keep some kind of content coming in regularly it's probably not gonna drop off for a while.

finally someone knows what they're talking about here, i feel the exact same way.
i was expecting ow to be even more in depth than tf2 with all the classes and counters but its basically the lowest skill floor objective based shooter game with instakill screen clearing ultis/wallhacks/aimbots
in tf2 if you play your class right there's not many which counter you by your sheer superior mechanical skill alone but in ow everyone is basically handed out a free kill ticket every minute
Titanfall was fucking amazing though

Nigga every online game on Bnet and Steam save Dota 2 reported a 8-15% loss of playerbase during the open beta, which had 9 million users total. It made a huge wave. How does that translate to potential failure?
>>337636635
It's a blizzard game.
Even if by some miracle it does die they can make it F2P and extend it's life, and add in community made content to extend it even further.
They can make the game TF2 at any time.
They've won.
>>337642305
You can find online games for pretty much any Blizzard game from D2 onward, I'm not sure what exactly your definition of "dead" is.

Lucio would be good if he wasn't a support. He can wall ride, has decent damage and abilities but has to be a heal bitch because if you pick him no one else will support.
>>337636635
Well that's what people said about both Hearthstone and Heroes of the Storm so the safe money is that it will be a success for years to come
>>337643489
The people who tried the beta wont all buy the game though
>>337643537
this is why double Lucio is how you play.
>>337637337
how many blizz games actually have super tiny player pools though? besides like sc2?
and even that is still easily enough people to play a game with it's just less than dota2/lol
>>337643229
Those stats are from months ago, there's been balance changes.
Symmetra especially got the nerf hammer pretty hard to her ult and passive team shields.
>>337643340
Yes. Yes, it was.
>>337640921
tf2 characters had more depth in their gameplay as well as personality
>>337643674
And she was still a top pick in open beta after those nerfs faggot.

>>337643602
Not every one, of course not. But OW's name got out there, and more public exposure directly correlates to more sales.

Maps, servers, and shit.
none of which Overwatch will have. If Blizzard can't put out a new map often, the game will get insanely stale.
>>337642862
>>337643626
you play double lucio because he is mindlessly OP in 99% of every game that will ever be played
blizzard isn't going to nerf the little turd because for the 1% esport masters, he is merely 'ordinary'
this is the same reason why designated shitting street-tier junk characters like symettra are getting nerfed so much, because the 1% esport tier players use her exactly right, and support her perfectly with the team
>>337643626
>multiple Lucios on your team
Question: Do the passives stack with multiple Lucios?
That'd be amazing but very clearly overpowered if they do.
>>337643749
>she was a top pick
Lmao no, Mercy and Lucio were pick a lot more for supports, I rarely ever saw a Symmetra.

We're talking about a company that doesn't allow Mods, that doesn't allow LAN, that doesn't allow any user customisation without a ban, that shut down nostalrius while not offering what nostalrius offered.
They are STRONGLY anti-community. THe game will flop, or do similarly in success to any of blizzard's releases over the last 8 years or so.
Mediocre eh.. with maybe a few month excitement phase, and then everyone will move on.
>>337643949
they dont
>>337643841
It's not dead though, casually or competitively
>>337638495
g2a is a legit site. Just make sure you buy G2A shield along with it.It's included by default so its not like you could fuck that up
>>337640737
We hav another Sonic the hedgehog situation where most of the story is external in the form of comics and cartoons. Of course the context was that Sonic was marketed like a toy since they didnt know shit at the time.

The base edition is literally 40 USD on the main website.
>mfw Ausfag and it's 70 dollarydoos
The jewery god damn.
maybe. blizzard can afford to prop up their shit games with fake esports hype by injecting it with cash. i hate what esports has done to gaming.
>people trying this hard to convince themselves the game will die
holy fucking kek, don't worry dudes TF2 is going to be fine you don't need to lie to yourselves
>>337638506
There's too many heroes. I feel like if Blizz just added a F/R ability then the cast could be cut in half.

Im not trying to convince you or myself, i just see parallels in a similar purchase i had made.
>>337644028
Yeah if they don't allow for user made stuff the game is not going to last. That's one of the biggest reasons TF2 has survived so long.

I could cajole enough people to get it, but i like rocketjumping. Honestly it would be an instant buy if pharah rocketjumped instead of jetpack and jump jets.
I played a few matches with Lucio, I can see why people like him so much. Better general mobility and offensive options than Mercy, and the mobility buff is cool for control point.
The trouble for me is that as someone who actually likes playing Support/Healer, I never feel satisfied playing Lucio because it's hard to tell how well I'm doing my job since the heal is passive rather than active. Being able to heal simply by existing isn't very fulfilling. His support abilities also don't seem very good unless the team is bunched up, and thus vulnerable to wipes.
>>337644019
If you buy it direct from Blizzard they have a non-Origin edition that's $40.

Get right in their face, hit them with a stun grenade and then fan the hammer until they die.

>>337642207
had precisely the opposite experience in every way
TFshit quickly degenerated into 'I have to play the heavy or medic because everyone else is selfish'
'I have to play demoman because he is OP and the enemy team is also using demoman'
'I have to switch to pyro every single time the enemy decides to start using a spy'
'I can never play the characters I actually like, I have to always counterpick'
then I went back to Overwatch, got on tracer, and basically had a great encounter in every single fight I was in, without really needing to switch characters except when I felt like it
I can never play TF2 again

I don't understand how to play this guy. He's made of paper and has zero mobility/escape options and yet I'm expected to constantly be out in the open to maintain my orb connections.
People complain about Mercy needing protection, but at least she can fly to her allies in a pinch and has a bit more health than Zen.

>>337645401
well, I'm going to have a look-see at these Legion class change guides on Wowhead to see if I can get an inkling of what you're talking about. Summon Sindragosa better have a long-ass cooldown m8
>>337638414
It's free that is the reason
>>337643520
Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it isn't profitable
>>337645496
nah m8. Sindragosa was defeated in ICC, Sapphiron is in Naxx. They are both frost wyrms, though, but Sindragosa is considerably stronger.
Your point stands, though. But shit, she's already an undead dragon... if she is killed, what's stopping her from being re-raised?
