BATTLEBORN BETA IS OUT

FUN/10
>>
Its boring.
Generic coop first person moba.
>>
It's just another trash moba, only in first person. It's pretty much written by Anthony Burch, even though he didn't write it.
>>
I played the story mission by myself and it's super lame. There's no music and all the voice acting is seriously low quaity, like they didn't even try a little bit. Combat isn't anything special and I keep getting stuck on geometry.
Honestly makes me feel like I'm playing Strife in first person.
>>
>>334190749
>Iv never played the game
The post
>>
Worst part is t looks like last gen game but can barely maintain 60 fps.
And the irony is all the Borderland babies are already defending it as better than overwatch.
>>
>>334190425
That sucks. Atleast tracer is still cute.
>>
The game's pretty boring but it's your standard moba so you could squeeze enjoyment out of it with your bare hands if you really tried. DEFINITELY not worth 60 bucks though.

It's also most definitely not anything like overwatch.

This. People keep comparing the two need to stop. Overwatch is an character based shooter like TF2. Battleborn is a straight up moba complete with minions rushing you.

Nah.

Just gonna dump 40 bucks on Overwatch instead.

Plus I'm already dumping my time into DSIII and R&C.

It didn't drop once for me on PC. Your fault for being a peasant or buying a crappy card. Also, the game is good and better than Overwatch because it has a campaign.
>>
>>334194114
I was under the impression it would be like Overwatch since people keep comparing the two. I got a moba instead and I hate mobas. Also the writing was abhorrent. It's definitely chasing the meme-spouting young teen Youtuber watching crowd. To be fair I only did the story mission and none of the multiplayer but I wanted to try a controlled environment first before joining up with actual people, so that may have something to do with it.

Theyre similar enough that they're competing over the same demographic, at the same time.

Idiots keep making comparisons just because they're coming out around the same time and they're both an FPS subgenre.

Did you not like Monday Night Combat because that's what I compare it to. Though MNC did have a LOT less visual clutter than what Battleborn does.
>>
>>334192453
At least in singeplayer, it's Borderlands with 3 special attacks instead of one. FPS as it gets, really.

Tried.

Not a bad time waster.

I wouldnt pay 60$ for it though.

You know what I finally got to play a VS match and it's not too bad. It's just not $60 good, especially since the story missions are so awful.

Game is good with potential for greatness. Play it as a shooter with objectives not a MOBA. Supposedly AI is going to be updated so that should help keep things interesting. The story missions are fun/good enough if you don't zerg rush through them like a retard.
>>
Why did they advertise it as a MOBA?
It plays nothing like one and it just made so many people dismiss it instantly.
>>
>>334191867

Good luck grinding out on all that shit for free.
>>
>>334194995
Because LoL is the most profitable game in the industry right now.

Gotta cash in on that shit.
>>
>>334194995
>Why did they advertise it as a MOBA?
They didn't. Everybody else started calling it a moba(which is a dumb as fuck name that Riot made up for LoL) but it does have influences from dota style games
The problem with hybrid titles is that they're impossible to present. Demon's Souls and the original Borderlands had this problem originally as well.
>>
>>334195265
What? I mean grinding for all champions.

I played for 2k+ hours and in the end I had like 70 out of ~100 or so champions and barebones runes (welfare runes were nerfed too because fuck you t. rito) and couldn't even buy extra rune pages.

Either the characters should all be free from the get-go or the model should be similar to Smite where you can buy all current and future characters on one purchase.
>>
>>334194650
>Idiots keep making comparisons just because they're coming out around the same time and they're both an FPS subgenre.

They are both objective-based shooters with a cartoony style with a hero-type character approach.

Battleborn's sales WILL take a huge hit from releasing within Overwatch's release window, since they're both appealing to the same audience.

No, but I definitely remember the praise and hype abuzz about it. The Meet the X videos, the fan created content, all of it before it went Free 2 Play and Hats and other shitty updates plunged the game into an Indian street. I've not the slightest interest in TF2 but it's a damn shame what happened to it.
>>
When comparing characters to overwatch it feels kinda weird.
Like all the characters from overwatch are dolls, and the battlebornones are ugly, misshapen, lumpy.
I mean its just the difference in style but its so weird.
>>
Eh, they should really warn you when trying single player story mission, as my first match was just that, and it was fucking dull. I think it'll scare a lot of people off.

Also, why is there an unlock system when it's B2P?
Also, why is there a gear system in a competitive FPS?

I'm hoping to play some more over the weekend.

How do I unlock Phoebe btw?

They're not making borderlands 3. Judging by the trends in gaming it's probably going to be an mmo, if anything.

So were the tf2 cast in the beginning. The difference being is theres less of them which gave valve more time to develop them after the games release.

>>334196865
It's worth installing for the sake of witnessing the state of gearbox atm. It's like they took the worst parts of borderlands (which they probably thought were the best parts) and decided to mix it with DOTA on some board meeting.
>>
>>334198048
The marketing for Battleborn is atrocious on top of it.

Side note. I remember seeing Marquis and being so over the whole brass robot gentleman character cliché, until I found out he was German. That basically saved the character from the scrap bin for me.

Haven't played enough to say much about anyone else though.

I played a couple rounds and I don't know if it's just me, but Oscar Mike seems way less effective than he was in the previous beta. He seemed pretty good before but not ridiculously good, so I'm not sure if they nerfed him or if I'm just rusty.

Orendi's pretty fun though.

I dont know i used him and one 5 matches in a row so i could get benedict. Just make your grenades have fire damage and have your invis start your shields and give an ms boost. After that just use grenades for wave clear and shit tons of damage, and invis the fuck out if you are gonna die.
>>
>>334198823
try 300~ and it's only a handful of players at a time; either games can't get started because of lack of players or because there are partied up pub stomping sad cases

even if you do find a game, it's the same assassin blitzkrieging your base's turrets with juice easily farmed strategy

xbox version stopped getting updated so bases don't have the pc version's level 3 starting rock-its and juice nerfs

game went super downhill when the focus quickly went from bot escorting to how many le epin kills you can rack up with a support shoved up your ass

game was one of my favorites but it got corrupted by broke call of duty rejects that can't give it up

Played and won two games, had fun. It suffers from a typical ASSFAGGOTS design flaw wherein if you're getting shit on, there's no real way to stage a comeback.
If you feel the need to include a "Vote to Surrender" button in your game, reevaluate your design.

Caldarius isn't very good. His tmp does abysmal dmg and his secondary attack which is his energy blade does as much damage as everyone else's melee.

Actually playing Montana is a pain in the ass, since you're fucking huge and soak up everything without even trying. You can also get stuck on tiny obstacles in the lane like ledges and minions that you can't see due to your viewmodel.

>>334206267

See that's the thing, is really supposed to be played as a support? He needs to be at the frontlines skirmishing but he really does not excel at anything. He can hit and run but what's the use if he can't deal great damage in bursts/shirt time window.
>>
>>334202402
He's pretty good. His guns kinda sucks, but his grenades do a ton of damage, and his ult as well. He can do a dash if you double press X in the direction your moving so you can dance around the enemy and try to get in a bunch of shots to make up for shit damage. His ult let's him hover in the air and do 500+ to an area with a dive bomb attack. His blade is slow, but can be used with the life steal upgrade and some damage upgrades. I like him a lot, he's really fun when you get the hang of his dashes. Also he's a fucking decepticon. You can't go wrong there.

Played the closed beta. It was okay, but had some glaring issues to do with balance.
Played a little of the open beta today. It was pretty decent, they've improved it quite a bit.

That's nice. I like how the characters are unlocked by playing the game and not microstransactions. That means they're better than all other mobas.

I'm trying him out.
Somehow I keep pressing the wrong buttons and opening my helix when I mean to clothesline. But I'm still enjoying him.
I guess that's what happens when I haven't played an FPS in months.
The helix node that turns his melee finisher into a lunging punch is a godsend for chasing fleeing foes.

Even if I don't like him, I think his aesthetic is fantastic. I recently uncrated a Gold/Purple skin for him called Nebula.

Some of the characters require a high level to unlock but the challenge route seems easier for most of them

I've been playing orendi very hit and run to great success. You just kind of show up to fights that are already happening and try to lead your fire pillar. Q is a really good escape, but you can also use it to "reset" the cd for fire pillar if you need to.

She's a pretty good character to run around the map and collect crystals because half of playing her is suprising people and forcing them to panic when they suddenly have half HP out of nowhere. Also makes her really good for taking out enemy turrets and getting behind enemy lines to kill snipers.
Really she's got a suprising amount of maneuverability once you get the talent to refresh your Q and can do a good job terrorizing people you catch alone.
>>
So, what CAN we unlock? Alot of these characters need story missions to unlock them early, and they're not all available, right?
>>
>>334209704

You can unlock all of them, they all have an alternate lock requirement of a certain Command Level.

Not really worth it though, beta progress isn't going to carry over. You can get about 10-11 of them unlocked without too much trouble.
>>
>>334209704
In the beta right now? Skins, Characters (at the proper level), mutations for your helix, items, pretty much everything that isn't tied to a story mission. Apparently the beta won't carry anything over, so don't worry too much just have fun

>"LADIES, GENTLEMEN, NON-BINARY GENDERS, ARE YOU READY!?"

Is every character in this game fucking insufferable? I was watching someone play a game as Montana and he'll just never fucking shut up with these obnoxious fucking one-liners. Is this every character? I know it's a fucking gearbox game so the writing is gonna be a pile of fucking horseshit but god damn. Very rarely will VO stuff/writing effect my enjoyment of a game, but what I've heard isn't good.

You get more points based on performance and winning games. Also there's character ranks, those give you skins, rare loot packs, mutations and poses. Story mode is pretty challenging at times too SHITTY FUCKING TEAMMATES AND DISCONNECTS ALL AROUND so its nice that they have an alternative rather than buying with in game money at astronomical prices or buying "gold"

How the fuck is it challenging? I only remember dying to exploding bots blindsiding me. 1000 damage kills many characters.

I think ISIC might be on a bit of the overpowered side.

He has an amazing escape (which is also a 2 second stun), two different types of shields, and an AoE charge shot. His ultimate is very situational tho.

They should nerf his shields a slight bit or at least make his right click shield on a cooldown or something

Devs confirmed nothing can be unlocked early by paying more.

All future maps will be free and there's at least 5 free characters coming because they don't want to split the player-base.

The only paid DLC is more campaign levels which also come with unique taunts and skins. It's a pretty good system because you will never need to pay to keep "up to date" (like Destiny where if you don't buy each DLC you basically can't play) thus keeping the population together and it's impossible to pay for an advantage.

But I don't know how profitable campaign DLC will be, their Borderlands DLCs were always the best content in each game and well worth the money but I don't know if Battleborn's campaign will be good enough to warrant spejding more money when the main focus is the multiplayer.

W10 and Xbone crossplay. Gigantic is worth the upgrade tho if you want to play a game made by the old Arenanet developers. It plays more like Forge or GW2 arena than a traditional moba. It's also very fast paced, like Bloodline Champions.

It'll be worth upgrading to W10 if they get an open beta out if you are into the above games.
