They did not call it Borderlands Heroes, and with images like the one in the OP, people assumed it was another Asian MMO, DOTA Clone ro what not before actually watching the gameplay. The game itself is very uninspired.
At least it has more players than Mean Greens, and Killing Floor 2.

This is uncanny, is it really made up?
>>341886586
I love Borderlands and i never liked Blizzard that much, still i like Overwatch while when played the beta of Battleborn I thought that was annoying as fuck, with pretty shit HUD and colors and also a MOBA. And remember that overwatch 30€, Battleborn 60€+season pass of 20€
>>341886151
another good game lost in the sea of shit because they aren't a brand name.
Sad. This industry is shit.
>>341886586
they didn't think shit. They announced the game and release date before overwatch.
Why the fuck does gearbox think truckers are cool?
>>341888893
You do know overwatch is project titan right shit that was announced since 2010
Battleborn's for cucks
>>341889113
and battleborn was "new game in development" since the same year.
The only flaw in Battleborn is that blizzard is a filthy rich business with endless money, and gearbox is a game studio.
What does /v/ think of Paladins though?
>>341888767
>another good game
lol
Marketing was a disaster
>>341886256
Literally everything. The game isn't good. The marketing is a disaster. The core concept is flawed. The art design is visual cancers. Etc, etc.
Gearbox must be fucking lucky. They made the most successful 2K game then they made this.
>>341889297
That makes no sense because Battleborn also have sexual exploration, at least for one character.
>>341888767

>>341887225
Everything Gearbox writes sounds like it was done by a 70 year old granddad who just wants to be cool with the kids.
Except it's written by 20-something men and I have no idea whether they're being ironic or not.
>>341886586
>loyal fanbase
That's the most disappointing thing about it. Haven't even played Battleborn, but Overwatch doesn't have ANY CONTENT.
It tried to be an updated TF2 but there's no reason to play it. TF2 has more content and better gameplay. I can't understand the overdrones. The game got boring during the beta, I can't see getting more than 20 hours out of it before being done for good.
Was Gearbox actually blacklisted by publishers?
>>341891072
>Roblox still exists
Holy fuck.
>>341891154
They blacklisted by Sega for sure
>>341886256
In addition to reasons people already stated, MOBAs are already a saturated market even though there aren't that many. People only seem to want to stick with the big two.
>>341891249
It's had a recent resurgence with children.
>>341886151
>These fucking hideous designs
At my store, (I work at Family Video) every time this game's ad comes on the TVs, I just fucking lose it. It's set to fucking ACDC and my District manager asked what I thought was so funny. I said "game flopped hard and I have an acquaintance who's an artist for them and I hope he becomes homeless", she laughed and said the game's commercial makes it look like a game for little kids because of the art style.
>>341891072
This is just sad
>>341886256
Released in the same 6 month period as overwatch.
>>341886256

>>341892102
Spotted the child.
>>341888893
Except they literally took to twitter and picked fights with Blizzard to push for some sort of meme competition between Battleborn and Overwatch.
They brought this on themselves.

The problem is they pander to sjws. Look at this character modeled after Briana Wu
>>341892791
I think they were legitimately looking for proper competition just stupidly overestimated their ability to compete. Blizzard pretty much gave them a one up up their asses.
>>341893071
Damn, this point can't be refuted. It's too much of a resemblance.
>>341890931
I payed $20 for TF2 back in the day, put close to 1k hours into it and I still love it to this day, but the game is literally dead. I went back and tried it a few weeks ago and it's a shadow of its former self, filled with a bunch of retarded weapon designs other assorted p2w.
Overwatch isn't winning any awards for innovation, but it is really fun. It feels a lot like TF2 did, before it became a hat simulator.
TF2 is dead, you can either move on, like I and a lot of others did, or you can stay salty and shitpost on /v/ about your sour grapes, its completely up to you.
>>341893071
That looks plain terrible. I wonder who gave the ok for half of these designs.
If you want success the first thing you need to do is to make some sexy characters to rope in the japs.
>>341893071
Got the mouth of a 70 year old woman.
>>341893313
If you're having fun with OW and you're tied of TF2 - that's fine. I just find it surprising.
TF2 isn't dead though, no matter how much you scream about hats. There's still more gamemodes, maps, and generally just a LOT more content.
Overwatch doesn't have that. Not at launch and likely not ever. No custom servers and community maps will see to that. The maps are boring and blend together and the, what, 3 gamemodes OW has? get incredibly boring after just a few matches. Glad they had the open beta so I could see just how empty the game really was. Maybe in a few years it'll be worth it. Probably not though.
>>341893071
Anybody have a picture of the pre-order bonus figure?
>>341886151
Why would I laugh when 37 billion people are currently playing Battleborn
>>341893972

>>341886371
This.
>>341893972
>37 Billion people
Nigga are you retarded?
>>341890931
I have like 1.8k hours in tf2. It was a blast, but I slowly stopped playing it over time because it started dying.
I kept going when items came out
I kept going when hats happened
I kept going when it went f2p
But then all those new things started going more towards being silly like conga lines and the cosmetics got more and more ridiculous. People started jerking off over their kill streak weapons and stopped actually playing the objective turning every game into tdm. Everyone who played heavy just fed the enemies sandwiches and then started yelling "DON'T KILL ME I'M FRIENDLY" when I just killed them every time
So I stopped, overwatch fills that need for an objective based,class based, shooter except people actually play the objective and don't sit around in spawn saying that they're selling an unusual tower of hats for $400. They actually play the game
>>341894421
Battleborn is more popular with aliens because they can't understand the writing.
>>341894421
Sewer people also count
>>341890080
All of them. If nothing else Gearbox is very good at embezzling money.
>>341894646
After the Sega lawsuit I think they may find it a bit harder.
>>341887225
is that actually from the game?
serious question
>>341894563
Clearly you were playing on some horrible servers, but okay. Overwatch still doesn't have enough to do in it to justify the price point. There's no reason not to wait until it's something reasonable, like 20 bucks, and that's only if you've been playing REALLY bad TF2 servers and that burned you out.
>Stillborn
>>341895038
Why are you and every tf2 player so defensive about this?
I've played tf2 longer than you have, and I can very nearly guarantee that. I love this game, but it's grown stale over time and valve have been treating it like complete shit for years now, and I'm pretty fed up.
Overwatch is an extremely well made game with plenty of content for those who actually enjoy the spirit of competition and don't need hats or botched meme game modes and horribly balanced community maps to have fun. Get real, dude.
Also, people who act like TF2 has more variety than Overwatch just because there's an overabundance of retarded unbalanced items that most people don't even use is pretty hilarious.
>>341893863

>>341895635
The only time I went in trade servers is when they released a new weapon I wanted to try, or to trade a hat I found for scrap to get that weapon
It happened in every server that didn't outright ban you for doing it, and those servers died over time
>>341895263
>"Woah! Put her back in, she's not done yet!"
>>341894998
Doubt it, if Gearbox was writing it, they'd be reading a male porno magazine to prove how PROGRESSIVE they are. And if the speaker was female, there'd be a line afterwards that says something along the lines of "yes, I said babes, because I'm a lesbian, deal with it."
>>341895253
>Why are you and every tf2 player so defensive about this?
It's the TF2 players who are defensive? Seems more like OW fans needing to justify their recent purchase.
>I've played tf2 longer than you have
Nah.
>Overwatch is an extremely well made game with plenty of content
Point me to the content. The 3 game modes? The 10 maps that all feel the same after playing them more than 2 times? Or is it the plethora of characters? Sorry, you can have 50 characters but when they all fit into similar roles as the 9 in TF2 - what's the point?
Again, enjoy the game, but it's really not worth it.
>>341894421
Yeah well that's from 2013, a lot can happen in 3 years you know.
>>341887225
This SOOO much. Borderlands 2 was my first and only Gearbox game. Besides being a shitty FPS I had to listen to this bullshit the entire game.
They competed with a few large game releases and it flopped. Should have shelved it for a lull period or even gone the F2P route initially
>>341895253
How much is blizzard paying to to shill this shit so hard? Roughly how many shills are employed to shitpost about your bad game here? Just want to know.

You realize there are only 2 weapons that can be considered direct upgrades from stock weapons right?
TF2 on release:
9 Classes

20$
Overwatch on release:
21 Heroes
12 Maps
40$
What's the problem with this?
>>341889113
No it wasn't, but they did say some ideas and concepts from Titan made it into Overwatch.
>>341886256

This is how the Battleborn general died. This is the last thread they had. Look at all the post it got before it was over.
>>>/vg/145715213
>>341895964
It has 21 unique characters who are almost all fun to play as, the game modes encourage experimenting with new ideas, and there are plenty of maps. Even if you disagree, more content is coming, for free
>>341895964
>It's the TF2 players who are defensive?
Yes. You're literally in this thread yelling at people that Overwatch isn't worth buying and that TF2 is better than it. You were literally the first person itt to even bring up TF2. >>341890931
It's pretty sad dude.
>Nah.
When did you start playing? Experience in comp? Hit me, senpai.
>Point me to the content.
Four game modes and twelve maps at launch (which is plenty, TF2's oversaturation of game modes is fucking retarded) with more confirmed to be on the way, 21 heroes with unique playstyles, an actual working ranked mode (coming Soon™) vs tf2's abortion of a matchmaking mode that has left even comp players totally disillusioned.
TF2 has a lot of content, sure. But so much of it is complete shit. Too many stupid hats and particle effects cluttering the visual design, too many useless game modes (who even plays the soccer ball game more or mann mode?), too many shit maps that nobody plays, and other excess trash that nobody cares about has left the game optimised like complete shit and cluttered to hell. It's possible to have too much content. TF2 has too much content. It's unfocused as fuck.
Also, why do people like you compare Overwatch to what TF2 has become over 9 years? See >>341896461
>>341896206
Nobody needs to shill anything. This game sold 10 million copies in like three weeks.

Nah, the game had a huge budget and devteam, moreso than any Borderlands game.
>>341896461
Uh, TF2 had better maps and 21 heroes that feel bland in comparison to the 9 doesn't help the fact either.
Plus TF2 came out 9 years ago and still had more going for it.

I'll agree the TF2 mercs feel more unique, but they've had an extra 7 years of character development
Honestly I looked up gameplay out of sheer curiosity and it looks pretty fun, kind of a weaker MOBA with FPS perspective/gameplay. Might be worth picking up on sale.
Also for the six-armed bastard whatever his name is one of the skills that made him leave a trail of flame or something like that was named Fire Walk With Me which I thought was great.
>>341892791
Yeah why would they even invite that comparison
Other than being FPS games with classes in them the two games are nothing alike and for some reason now everyone thinks they're in direct competition
>>341896651
>Also, why do people like you compare Overwatch to what TF2 has become over 9 years?
Yeah I would already say Overwatch is the better game at this point because for all its problems it's not even close to the messy oversaturated clusterfuck that is TF2, but if you really want to compare them how about you think back to what TF2 was like a month after it was released?
Also never forget Valve sat with their thumbs up their asses putting in new hats and stupid weapons (for a while they were good then they just became needlessly convoluted and added absolutely nothing of value to the game) and then nine years later, when they finally had some direct competition, is when they said to themselves "hey you know maybe instead of just sticking with the same server browser literally straight out of 2004 we should actually implement the ranking and matchmaking mode people have been asking for for almost a decade"
>>341893863hi
So outside of memes, what were the actual reasons why Battleborn failed? What was wrong with its gameplay?
>>341896260
>>341896568
>>341896874
>>341896920
Fuck off Blizzshills. Battleborn was hand crafted by a small studio with love and care unlike Overwatch which was made by a lifeless corporation and their codemonkeys.

Honestly, It just lost the marketing battle to Overwatch. They're the same 'kind' of game and going after the same demographics- not only does Overwatch just *look* a thousand times better than Battleborn, Blizzard is known for running solid marketing campaigns and having massive and insanely loyal fans.
Overwatch was destined to succeed as soon as it had Blizzard's logo on it.
Battleborn was doomed to failure as soon as it was going to be released at the same time as Overwatch.

It might have done fine on its own but not when Blizzard releases a very similar game at roughly the same time.
>>341897129
There's no way they actually fucking shipped these. Who the hell did they outsource this shit to?
Don't think I've ever seen a thread with this many people defending a newly release game vs an almost 10-year-old one.

Overwatch was better. It's not a meme if it's legitimately the reason. Also there wasn't much for class diversity. There was one healer that couldn't die, and every melee character was just a mashing contest.

They're a bunch of retarded SJWs at Gearbox. They would NEVER try to promote their game with waifus, even though that's exactly what they should've done.
Never go the "cool" route if your game has qts, ALWAYS put the qts on the front.
>>341886256
The game itself is just mediocre, for one thing, and mediocrity doesn't cut it when you're an online MP game of a genre as oversaturated as MOBAs. Gearbox's reputation and the art design didn't help either, of course.
But I would say that launching in the same month as Overwatch was the thing that took it from "mediocre game that sold like shit" to "the autopsy of this game will educate the rest of the industry on how not to make/launch a game for years to come."

I recently gave TPS another chance, had to quit 5 hours in because I can't stand it anymore.
Gameplay was okay and I was looking forward to see how it developed on later levels but I can't, seriously, I just can't.
Like one or two years ago I remember Randy on E3 shilling Battlebort, his whole reasoning behind the concept was "well it's like BORDERLANDS but instead of grinding for days you just grind for minutes to become awesome!" or something like that.
Yeah Pitchfucker, I play a loot-centric RPG-like game to feel awesome in minutes, these fucking guys Jesus Christ.

Gearbox writes everything around memes, you people should know this by now. But they try to allude to the fact that they're aware that they're memes, making them even worse than if they just worked with memes alone.
Basically, they write a meme, bring attention to the meme, then say "haha, get it, meme!"
They have no originality.
I don't even like OW but from what I've played all the characters don't spout memes or even say shit that is glaringly "oh so witty"

>>341897209
What's up, Randy?
It tanked because Blizzard shilled their game to all hell, and Gearbox could not compete in the ad campaign because they are many times smaller.
It's a shame, because it honestly seems to have more lasting value, provided GB keeps tweaking and updating. That said, they shouldn't have tried to compete directly with OW. They should have just pushed back the release date to the end of this year and spent the time to work out the kinks.

What is is BB's logo supposed to be?
At least OW's is distinctly an O, a Wand two hands high fiving
So did this game flop and (proportionally) lose as much money as TOR?
Remember that sometimes its a good idea to throw games so the >500 people that still play won't get discouraged.
>>341897209
Such a shame the game you worked on was shit
>tfw we get this shit from Gearbox but no new Brothers in Arms game in the Battle of the Bulge
Fuck you gearbox, I was even hyped for Aliens:Colonial Marines but you had to fuck it up.
>>341897271

Does gearbox only know how to write the same characters over and over?
>>341898021

>>341896376
What are they?I want to pub-stomp
>>341898410
It's a hand flipping off everybody.
It's funny how Blizzdrones pretend that OW isn't just as cringy with dialogue.
>>341898423
TOR is still around and is actually doing well enough to release constant content that's free (probably just for subs)
Battleborn flopped harder than TOR
>dont know anything about Battleborn
>Watch trailer
>They start spamming the word ''Badass'' again just like in all their Borderland games
Oh for fucks sake
>>341898282
never said anything about sjw
Did you forget alien: colonial marines or duke nukem forever?
>>341898559
There's a medisaw with a taunt that has an AoE heal, which is technically a direct upgrade.
>>341898282
But thats actually factually what happened. They hired the wrong people to help with their game, and alienated themselves from the general consumer.
>>341898282
>Stay mad Blizzshills
Right, because a thread where everyone is laughing at your shit game is the equivalent of us getting mad.
>>341895497
I was reading it in Scooter's. Sounds exactly like something he'd say.
>>341898434
>Battleborn players are this desperate
Hahaha
>>341897436hehehee
>>341898640
>They start spamming the word ''Badass'' again just like in all their Borderland games
I thought that was exclusive to Battleborn. They've been doing it sine the start?
>>341886151
I hate the art in this game. Whenever i see a group of those characters togeher, I can never tell exactly what I'm looking at. Disproportionate limbs everywhere. I can't even tell what many of these characters are themed around.
>>341898181
kek
>>341898582
Post some. I'm interested.
>>341886151
Considering I actually liked playing the beta of Battleborn more than playing Overwatch - it's kinda sad to see this game get the short end of the stick.
Wonder if it'd actually do well if people wouldn't compare it to Overwatch but I guess we'll never know. Ah well. Still probably gonna buy it later on. At least it's shit sales means the price will drop like a stone.

holy shit you can't make this up
>>341897152
Bullet spongy shit, awful melee, it legitimately was REALLY hard to see what the fuck was going on in the middle of the action, grinding to unlock characters, grinding to LEVEL UP characters, really long missions with no checkpoints combined with bad matchmaking, moba shit is not everyone's cup.
The worst part was still the writing though. I'm sure you can find some mission walkthrough videos and enjoy minute after minute of deadpan but kind of sassy robot guy calling you a douche, a puke, a clown and how much he wants to kill you.
These faggots gave us claptrap. How do you niggers feel sorry for them?
>>341898762
Borderlands' elite enemies are called badasses and super badasses.
>>341898762
Borderlands 2 had an entire system called ''Badass ranks'' and it got old soooo fast.
>>341898789
god DAMN
>>341898748
wait, is this and official figure?
>>341898834
It had a 40% sale in the first couple of weeks on release
It's one of the newest releases to get such a big discount
>>341898181
>>341898789
>it's true
>>341898181
>>341898762
The word was so overused in BL2 that it lost any meaning like an hour into the game.

It's sad when a near 10 year old game out classes one that just came out from a huge company.
It's even more sad when said company doesn't need to pay advertisers because their delusional fanbase will do it FOR FREE.
It'd either that or some insane buyers remose setting in because they've played more than 10 hours and are out of content. Should have played the beta! That's when I learned my lesson.
>>341898789
>>341898789
oh my god, I actually feel bad
>>341898582
OW's dialogue is funny specifically because it's all so over the top though
especially Reaper

How does Gearbox have such bad writers?
>>341898686
Last time I played the statue head for the Medic was also a direct upgrade, because it functioned the same but also showed the HP of the enemy you looked at
>>341899124
Cool.
>>341899124
Did you even read any of the posts you quoted?

>give OW's beta a chance
>it's actually fun
>40 hours played so far
It's far from my "main" game but it's fun to have something I can hop on for an hour, get a loot box and quit
I used to play League and OW is much less stressful cause the matches are short and I don't have to play it for hours to get something
It's a fun "side game"

How are your 500 dollars in virtual hats doing?
It's a bummer. It's really a fun game, but Gearbox killed it like they kill everything. I wonder how it would be in the hands of somebody a little better.
Most of the characters are pretty fun to unique. Good voice dialog, and good designs apart from a few. I dig the lore challenges that reward you with backstory. There are a lot of nice, loving touches.
I sometimes feel like 60 percent of the dev cycle, Gearbox poked their head into the studio team and said "Yeah it's good, but we could really just fuck it up a bit more don't you think? Wouldn't be a gearbox game otherwise!"
;_;
>>341898789
Holy fuck. A MOBA literally 59 people watching it. A fucking MOBA. That's pathetic.
>>341899383
>now 1200
Big spike from the earlier screenshot showing 850.
>>341895872
It hurts me on the inside.
These are the same people who go into joke threads to say "nice bait"
>>341899383
to be fair it's on a big of an upswing at the moment since it's the weekend
g-good job guys...
>>341898652
>colonial marines or duke nukem forever?
Only partially made by Gearbox.
>>341898713
>and alienated themselves from the general consumer.
Sounds like Blizzard.
>>341898724
>Still mad
Overwatch will NEVER have mechanics as deep as Battleborn or f*cking epic fights. The only reason people leave Battleborn is because they're too casual to master the mechanics.
>>341897152
Literally the first time I'd even heard of Battleborn was a thread on /v/ going "WOW /V/ LOOK AT WHAT YOU DID NOW THEY CUT THE PRICES"
>>341899505
It's saturday. Last weekend peak was 1600

They should have kept it subtle like in the first one instead of going full retard like they did.I wonder how BL3 will turn out, I really enjoy the loot-RPG/FPS concept.
>>341899497
>LOSS
>>341899436
MOBAs are pathetic regardless of the number of viewers.
>>341897259

i was interested until i saw it had dota elements and i dropped it like a bag of dog shit. i hate dota shit so much.
>>341896776
>a 9 year old game with no new content for almost a year

They're cashing it with what's left.
>>341897152
I didn't even know it was out until i saw threads laughing about it failing.
>>341894239

It'll beBAD and ASS.
Marketing.
>>341899624
>too casual to master the mechanics
It's been out, what, 3 weeks?
No one has mastered the mechanics and no one ever will because the game is dead.
>>341899781
I think the point he's trying to make is that regardless of quality, MOBAs consistently pull some of the highest number of viewer, and having so few comparatively is laughable.
>>341899708
>>im also bi btw :)

why do they insist on making borderlands over and over?

Image looks like checking doubles.
>>341890931
TF2 has been out for years you dipshit. give Overwatch enough time, along with its ever growing 10 million+ userbase and in time it will surpass everything that is TF...if it hasn't already
>>341899912
Okay fag I laughed.Then I cried inside.
