waiting a few months to see which community grows faster and is more consistent.
>>339412678
Ba-attle borne? What is this game you're trying to tell me about?
>>339412678
I really tried to play it op I really did. It was just bland as fug during the beta and my screen was a mess. How could you not add music when picking your hero and looking for a match?
Rip bb.
>hundreds of Overwatch threads every day
>Anon starts a Battleborn thread
>SO WHY AREN'T PLAYING IT?
That's they thing. Nobody is. You won't get them to play it by asking them to reiterate and reinforce why they don't.
>>339412678
Why would I play a shittier version of overwatch?
>>339412751
Pretty much this, I'm oddly enough looking forward to the game.
>>339412829
Also this, I played both Betas, granted on my x1, but OW was much more fun and easy to jump into

Why?
>>339412751
Overwatch will probably grow faster because Blizzard is going to pump a lot of money in it. But it will probably end up like HotS or Diablo 3. Forgotten.
Battleborn might some day be more popular than Overwatch.
>>339412996
It's hard to tell, everyone thought Titan Fall was gonna crumble, but I can still get on and play that shit, like 1500 people still play it errday.
>>339412996
>Already 40% off.
I doubt it
>>339412956
because that's exactly what the OP wants? it's amazing how fucking stupid you idiots are that you can't tell obvious falseflags and shit from normal people.
>>339413129
That was a choice that had to be made to make Battleborn able to compete with Overwatch. Just look at HotS and Diablo 3: Blizzard's only goal is to sell as many copies for a high price rather than preserving a community like Valve does for its games.
>>339413129
I thought it was some flash sale.
Let's start with a story. Battleborn was announced, and being Gearbox (I forgot and forgave for it's indiscretions, and hey I didn't mind Pre-Sequel) I was delighted. Then no more than a week, Blizzard announced Overwatch. Much to my chagrin, I ended up forgetting that Battleborn existed until Blizzard's marketing took a slow. Overwatch ended up being the TF2 clone I was expecting, though I'm not saying it's a bad game. This isn't a story to bash Blizzard, though I rather would like to.
So it came time to pick of the two, and having watched enough Overwatch and having participated in the Open Beta, I wasn't impressed enough to want to spend the money. Then came around the release of Battleborn, and was the time to watch streams of it's release. I fell in love instantly.
I spent the money for the Digital Deluxe, and over the past 31 hours I've logged, this game has never failed to make me laugh at every turn. The dialogue though it can get repetitive is always funny, hearing characters taunt one another (Get a Benedict vs. Toby. Trust me.) gets better and better, and just the general things that characters say seem to get funnier each time. Borderlands flourished on it's humor, and Battleborn has only taken that humor and ran far with it.
So thank you Gearbox, thank you for making a genuinely funny game with a genuinely enjoyable gameplay experience. Yeah the game might have it's flaws right now, but absolutely nothing is perfect at launch. And besides, you tell me you don't laugh when Marquis kills Phoebe and says: "Oh, I am so fired."
I dare you.
>>339413825
But Battleborn was announced 6 months before Overwatch.
>>339412678
Busy playing Overwatch, like everyone else. Battleborn is dead TC, this is getting embarassing, please stop
>>339413825
>It's that reddit copypasta again.
>>339412678
They should've released before (or after) Overwatch. Pretty ridiculous to go up against such a strong title.
>>339414202
>TC
Go back to Gamefags.
>>339414224
can you link the thread?
I can't into reddit
>>339412996
There's a reason why Diablo 3 is STILL more popular than Path of Exile, no matter what /v/ tries to tell you. Blizzard will always win.
Yes battleborn will have its little league of followers just like PoE, but in the end, Overwatch wins by default. Nobody I know has even heard about Battleborn, yet some of my friends that NEVER plays vidya actually bought Overwatch to play with my other friends and I. THAT is the power of Blizzard and why it will win.
Don't delude yourself.

literally the first result if you just copy the copypasta into google.
Also reddit really isn't that hard to figure out.
>>339412678
because penny-arcade said stillborne ahahah lol
d.eva for lyfe
3 GAME MODES GUYS
WOW
T-H-R-E-E
WHAT AN AGE WE LIVE IN WHERE THERES NOT JUST ONE, BUT THREE FUCKING GAME MODES!
That's half the reason I'm not playing it. Boring repetitive as fuck bland and uninspired game.
I probably would have bought it already if it weren't for
Gearbox
Character designs
I actually am a fan of oversaturation, personally.
>>339414662
How many fucking gamemodes does Overshit have?
>>339414342
Autism triggered mate? You alright there cunt? Not having a bad time there, bud? C'mon bro.
OP is TC.
A bit off topic but I must ask:
WHY on earth did Blizz go after Overwatch porn with copyright claims? I thought they could appreciate free publicity. Such a stupid move.
But I think we can all agree to buy Borderlands 3, right?
>>339414662
There's 4 though cuz pve.
no AMD support
>>339413383
no it was not
just think at the people that bought the game at launch, 2 weeks later the game is 40~~60% off
its fucking bullshit man, its treason against the early adopters
>>339414934
Kotaku published a very detail article about ow porn (with makers names incluced). Blizzard was just covering their ass by making sure none of the links led to porn.
>>339414751
3, but the point still remains valid. Even more so since I'm bored of Overwatch already.
>>339414751
1 as far as I know which is even worse. I'm having some fun with DOOM though despite it not being perfect because there's some good variety in there. Escort game modes, area control/capture modes, pure kill count modes, co op maps, collect enemy dog tags sorta mode etc.
>>339414662
LoL originally only had 2 game modes when it started becoming popular (5v5 3v3)
Both games are shit but thats not the reason why
>>339415259
Freeze tag is fun but in Doom I can't deal with the 180 second intermission timer
Really ruins my fun for the game
>>339415181
Isn't Kotaku supposed to be dead
Why does it still plague us with asinine bullshit
>>339414751
3, but everyone plays it like if it was Call of Duty.
>>339412678
>Has actually funny humor.
but hey this is just standard reverse shilling so I'm a dope for biting
So when does this game get good?
Friend gave me a copy he won on Twitter and I've played 4 story missions and the multiplayer. Out of the 10 or so hours I've put in the most fun I had was messing with the AI in the command menu.
Don't get me wrong, Overwatch is pretty bland but goddamn this is so much worse.
>>339412678
The effects are too flashy and blinding
I don't enjoy said humor
I don't care for storymode singleplayer/co-op
The design of a lot of the heroes is very unappealing
>Battleborn fans
>>339412921
Battleborn is pretty fun and it's extremely varied.
The community is okay and the story is there to just play through and rank up but i have a blast with it. Also not buying full price helps.
ITT: People getting baited
>>339413383
$60 was an absurd price for what you get with battleborn to begin with. Gearbox had a really inflated sense of self-importance thinking people would just buy in because borderlands does so well for them.
Having to cut that deep already is just bringing them back down to earth a little.
>>339412678
>So why aren't you playing Battleborn, /v/?
This game's released? I thought it was a beta.
>>339415380
Yeah I feel ya I'm getting the shits from it too.
Feels really designed around consoles but I think I'll be able to put up with it long enough to get my $50 worth.
