If it has the word Badass in the flavour text then based on my experience it's probably shit
>>339644521
This, the game has been out for less than a month and they're already rediculously desperate to boost the playerbase
>>339644285
Not him but is there a way to check those numbers then? I couldn't imagine a game like that being very popular on consoles and playing it on a larger screen doesn't seem like it would be any easy either.

Nigger, they were spamming this shit every 2 minutes on every television channel where it was even remotely relevant to interests. It just looked like shit with them airing their tryhard OP video against Overwatch's character commercials and Tracer spam.

Gearbox has no good rep in the industry.
First, there was Duke Nukem Forever. They bought the rights to a game that was basically like Half Life 3, in that no one ever expected it to be released but people were hyped about it anyways, and released what they got with little improvements. It was reviled, killed the franchise for good, and Gearbox was blamed. Not entirely their fault, but they shouldn't have even released it in the first place.
Then, there was Aliens: Colonial Marines. Basically, Gearbox wanted to make their own video games, but didn't have enough money. So they made a partnership with Sega to develop an Aliens game, made a very barebones (and bad) game with the license, and used the money Sega gave them to create their own games (I think Borderlands 2?) So they stole money, basically. Went to court for it.
Next, we have Borderlands. The first game was a bit of a cult classic, in that it was released with no real fanfare, but then exploded in popularity due to word of mouth and a decent quality. Gearbox decided to take that franchise, and fuck it up. They had a guy named Anthony Burch write it, and for the most part, he fucked it up. Cookie-cutter plot, "kooky" bad guy, bad characters, and worst in the eyes of the community, took lots of internet memes and used them as plot points (such as the big threat of the early game being a robot called "Wilhelm," and having the Wilhelm scream go off when you beat him).
The writer got called out, the writer went crazy, he made it even worse with Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel (Did exactly the same thing as Borderlands 2, but this time he added political messages).
And finally, the CEO of Gearbox, Randy Pitchford, has been known to be a huge asshole to people, online and in real life.
And that is the summary of why people hate Gearbox so much.
>>339651279
Don't forget that borderlands isn't even theirs, they stole it from codehunters
>>339645542
>>339651553
Also, apparently ripped off a cgi short.
It's almost as if this company was created by assholes.
>>339650746
Everyone's yelling so fucking god damn loudly I can't here half the shit that the people on stage are saying.
>>339651553
Oh, right, I forgot about that.
Long story short, this group of people created a cool animation that was basically what Borderlands was, but before Borderlands was in development. Looking at the design, atmosphere and general look of both the game and the short, it's clear that Borderlands ripped off the Codehunters short to create the setting of their game.
>>339642006
The characters are forgettable as shit. None of of them stands out like a Heavy or a Tracer does.
>>339651553

Good job, Overwatch fans, you did good today.

>>339657814
In all honestly, I can imagine battleborn doing better on consoles since overwatch is much more prominent on PC rather than consoles.
Don't get me wrong im not defending this awful game, I'm just saying.
I like Battleborn. It felt like something different while Overwatch felt like yet another fps essentially.
I don't understand why people just use Gearbox as an excuse to hate it, despite how shitty some of their games are (Borderlands 1 was fun and 2 was ok for a bit). At least that's what 90% of this thread is.
Though I play it on PS4, unsure how many players are on consoles.
>>339646371
The marketing just tells you it's "BADASS!!" with their stupid Gearbox-brand XD writing. It could have differentiated itself if it actually made it clear it was a loot-based Singleplayer/Co-op campaign that fed into a MOBA-style multiplayer mode. But apparently, they were dickless and didn't want their game being called a MOBA: they dug their own grave by not telling us what their game was.
>>339658009
I can't find exact in-game stats, but if the number of people streaming on Live from PlayStation is any sort of representation of it, then Battleborn has 24 streamers and Overwatch has 500+ currently.
>reading on Battleborn
>game is set in an universe where there's literally only one star left
Alright, okay, that's spooky.
What is it with Gearbox and making games that are 9 parts unfunny jokes and 1 part interesting plot points?
So how is Battleborn compared to Overwatch gameplay wise?
I haven't played either and I'm building a new toaster soon.
>>339658410
They march their games around with inane, cringey writing with cocksure confidence, yet they're actually just spineless cowards that have to fall back on "being wacky" and not playing their actual good ideas simple and straight.
It really is honestly a shame.
>>339658670
Overwatch is FPS with MOBA elements.
Battleborn is MOBA with FPS elements.
Pretty much.
>>339658670
It's basically a moba but also a first person shooter.
>>339658807
And the MOBA elements of Overwatch are basically hero skills, and that's it. There are no creeps and towers, it's all strictly based around the characters themselves.
>>339658670
Battleborn is a first person MOBA in the style of borderlands.
Overwatch is like a stylized TF2.
>>339659284
More like destylized. At least at release TF2 had a good, cohesive artstyle. Overwatch looks like someone looked at a bunch of liefeld's art and decided the designs weren't busy enough.
>>339659431
>throwing the L world around so carelessly
Now now, let us not be hasty. Reinhardt has a surprisingly small head but it doesn't quite reach Liefeld levels
>>339659778
Look at the fucking legs. Just look at them.
>>339643445
>>339655920
Reminder that /thread happened here and that the Overwatch hype train will probably guarantee immunity for a solid 6mo to a year before people start actually hating it.
With any luck gbox will have cleaned up Battleborn and the only golden age it will actually have will probably occur then before settling into a consistent playerbase.
>>339657391
Looks like shit like everything else in this crime against vision they call a "game".
>>339658328
Gearbox's management is a way bigger reason to shit on the company besides the fact that the writing in this games is complete fucking garbage, they are outright terrible people managing that company and I doubt anyone would miss them if they were horribly removed from this world.
I had no idea this game existed until a few weeks ago when I saw people joking about it crashing and burning compared to Overwatch. Maybe I've just been under a rock, but Battleborn seemed to come completely out of the blue.
Lack of sexually attractive characters. Porn makes money and brings interest to a game.
almost no fucking advertising for this game, and what little advertising there was was shit. Almost nobody knows this game exists.
Gearbox humor, only rated T so they can't even try to be offensive.
Shit campaign that nobody wants to play. Items make multiplayer unbalanced.
And also a really poorly timed release. Not only did Overwatch come out, but also Gearbox harassing a cripple man and trying to kill his wife, which is the main reason I didn't get it.
Don't mind me, just posting the only character I could find that actually loosk great.
Someone call Blizzard and tell them to make a sword-summoning ballgown waifu.

>IT'S LOWER THAN YESTERDAY'S 2200

>>339660335
>but also Gearbox harassing a cripple man and trying to kill his wife
Can you elaborate?
>>339660254
Same for me. Saw an advertisment making it out to be the next big thing and was like "yeah, no".
I still haven't really so much as watched a gameplay vid, I just relish in the I-don't-care-about-it hype train.
>>339660840
For your viewing displeasure
>>339661117
Gearbox owns some of the rights to Duke but not all.
Apogee/3D Realms handed Duke 3D and the Build engine to one of the original devs who has a Pannenkoek-tier knowledge of the engine and game. he's cripple and his wife has Lupus, he relies on royalties from Duke 3D and other Build engine games to cover her treatments.
Gearbox is trying to sue him saying that Apogee/3D Realms never had the right to give him those properties, also they removed Duke 3D from all online retailers so the guy's money gets cut off.
Basically Gearbox is literally the most evil company in the history of vidya, worse than fucking EA and Activision and Ubisoft combined.
Should have released it a month after Overwatch, you know when its dead, instead of before

Expert b8
>>339642006
i actually liked this fucking game during beta so it kinda sucks that its doing so poorly
i dont really think many people on /v/ disliked it much either during that time
the damn game should have been 50 or 45 to start with though, aint worth 60 no matter if its situation turned out better than it is now
>>339663330
I'm pretty sure you just live under a rock.faggot

I enjoyed playing Battleborn and I hated playing Overwatch.
still doesn't mean I'll support a company that murders people and embezzles from other companies. Fuck Gearbox.

Yeah, when she played the main villain in Silence of the Lambs.

backstory
>>339646370
gearbux fucked up too many times with too many people.
its over anon. randy has ruined everything.
overwatch has 73% rating
battleborn has 70% rating
>>339664294
Why are they so desperate like this? It only pisses off the early adopters. Isn't it better to eat crow for a few months then try to relaunch it?
>>339642006
I was made aware of it existence a long time ago, but I lack the money and the time to buy the game. Also, fuck buying games 80$ a pop. Probably will be a dead game by the time I get it for 30$ on Steam.
>>339663330
Burch was a dramatic cunt way before GG ever happened. GG only added the word cuck to the end of his name.
>>339665216
Wrong. /v/ liked Burch prior to GG.
HAWP was a beloved treasure on this board.
>>339646370
>implying the game is popular to warrant a smear campaign against it
>>339657010
is that gearbox's Over the Hedge mech-suit OC?
It's kind of sad how absolutely pathetic this game is doing
not really though
>>339647680
Holy shit you are disgusting.
>get a free copy of battleborn with my new gpu
>could have gotten a 144Hz monitor if I had ordered a week earlier
So will steam give me a refund for this? At least then I could get a game I like.
>>339666290
I usually feel bad when things flop because all in all I want everyone to be successful. However I cannot being myself to feel even the slightest bit of sympathy for gearbox.
This game has sideways deagle holding. How cool is that? Might as well buy it now and give it a try
>>339666290
>>339666648
>schadenfreude
Gearbox don't deserve this as a whole, but I want the company to fold and I'm sure the actual talent will find jobs elsewhere.
>People shit on Battleborn because it's a gearbox game
>they then buy a fucking Activision-Blizzard game
Uh... okay.
>>339663330

I can't tell if Briana is a tranny or not.
>>339644285
If its shit on one console do you really think its going to do better on the rest?
>>339652172
holy shit
>>339667043
It gets worse with every screenshot.
How do they do it?
So, battleborn will be going free to play about three weeks from now, in what will be a pretty much unprecedented shift. They're going to have to convert all sales to premium accounts that get some kind of special "founder" status and a bunch of gold to spend in the store.
Right now they're working with Valve, Sony and MS to get stores into the game ASAP. I estimate this will take them another month to reach basic functionality, so f2p in 3-4 weeks.

fuck off outsider, back to the borders with you!
>>339667371
That's nowhere near as bad at the screenshot that gets compared to the meme image, are you fucking retarded or something?
>>339654270
>Battleborn has nothing to do with sjw.
There's a male soldier character that literally yells "feminism is great", they say social justice shit on twitter, they hired Anthony Burch.
>>339667592
>Character says it when he kills a woman
>autists still interpret it as being a literal statement
Do you have any real life friends?

with designs like these I'm glad there'll never be porn made of it
>>339642006
Nothing it's fantastic. Problem is waifuists shit up the game's reputation cause it doesn't have a nice ass they can look at for 500 hours while ignoring the important part of the game which is the fucking gameplay. Hello waifuists ring ring it's for you it's called REALITY WAKE UP!
>>339667712
Not him, but honestly a game by Gearbox that features a guy yelling "feminism is great", even when killing a woman, is not likely to be ironic. There's just no way Gearbox would do that.
>>339667592
Anthony Burch doesn't seem to have any involvement with Battleborn, and I'm pretty sure he doesn't work for Gearbox anymore.
Also OM says that line after killing a female character.
>>339667824
Both of those characters have porn. One more than the other.
>>339660404
>sword-summoning ballgown waifu
Countess Kerrigan in HOTS?
It looks like every character design started as two characters and then they mashed em together
>all this unjust hate for battleborn
Blizzcucks need to fuck off right now and kill themselves for being such memeing fuckheads.
>>339667137
PR done right
>>339647680

>>339667137
Hey, shills.
It seems Gearbox really want this false dichotomy in their narrative. Like maybe it's important to deflect blame and make excuses because Gearbox think their shareholders will take pity, right?
It worked for their dealings against Sega, so why not against the entire fucking gaming community? Brilliant.
Well, it's not making sales. You guys can call it quits now, this is an impossible sell.
>>339650746
Jesus she's so fat it sounds like her mouth is full of food when she speaks.
These constant Battleborn bashing threads are getting out of hand. Is it memes now?
Look, I don't care that you hate it, I don't like the game either, it's a boring mediocre eyesore, but holy shit it's been a month now.
>>339667445
nobody wants to actually discuss the future of the game or what this interesting event means for the industry
you just want to anthony burchpost
i miss the old internet with people who were interested in more than memes.
>>339668214
Nice buzzword faggot, maybe I'm just tired of seeing these fucking threads 24/7.
>>339668375
Gearbox has grown a victim complex.
They gotta draw this out as long as possible, maybe squeeze some guilt-money out of sympathizers. The game is very dead and even their shills know it.
>>339668405
