Are you buying it?

h*ck yeah
>>
>>335784790
yeah it looks so epick lol xD
>>
Beta was fun as fuck so have already preordered it.
>>
Enjoyed myself far more than I thought I would with the beta so I'm buying it through a keyseller.
It fills the hole that MNC left.

Matches are more about skirmishes because most characters have the ability to clear creep waves fairly quickly, or at least stall them.
>>
>>335784790
I played beta, so no fucking way I'm going to ever play it again. Holy fuck it was terrible
Not even for free I won't
>>
>>335784790
Yep

The loadout system or whatever it was called destroys the game.
There's no way I'll play it as long as that's present.

I'm going to wait for the Overwatch beta and see if that game's any better, if not, I'm picking BB up.

Yeah, i went from EVE to WoW.
The thing is, EVE lacks so much content. Yeah, its fun to the newbie zone and pod people with a single torpedo. But advancing just takes so much longer to do, and its not fun. Its not fun to travel 15 jumps just to get ganked by pirates. Then you lose your ship, need to make more money, bla bla bla. Whenever i tried to mine in some of the safer zones there was always 4 or 5 strip miners there. You run over to within a Kilometer of the astroid when they pop, and then some uber miner drains it in one hit from like 100 miles away.
Another thing that disappointed me is that you couldnt get near to planets, or land on them. I tried to whistle for a cab and when it came near The license plate said "Fresh", and it had dice in the mirror If anything I could say that this cab was rare But I thought man forget it yo homes to Bel-Air I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 And I yelled to the cabbie 'yo homes smell ya later' Looked at my kingdom I was finally there To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel-Air

If it wasnt releasing right at the same time as overwatch then I would have.

I'll see if the game is still alive in 6 months

>>335784790
It's garbage and won't be balanced or have matchmaking worth a damn.

I think brink would've been fine if it didn't do that stupid "each map is actually part of the plot" thing.
It didn't need a plot, it was class based fps with parkour.

I thought it was loads of fun, I just stopped playing because with its shitty matchmaking even when there was people playing it had bots and then everyone else stopped playing.

It was also free, a full price barrier will keep most people out when it comes to retail. It should of never been 60 dinars, inb4 muh story mode.

>>335789952
Well the biggest problem is it was among the openGL games that came out when video cards only barely supported the API. Thanks Carmack for that

I still think it had some of the best customization of any of these games.

I wish games like Overwatch learned from that aspect

Does it have online only DRM (can you play offline with bots? can you play offline on LAN?)?

>>335795330

>>
>>335795269
Burch works for them, which /v/ doesn't like.
Also Borderlands 2 had memes which /v/ hates using despite how much they use them.
>>
>>335795242
>>335795330
If overwatch had a coop component it would be the same price as this game. Which it will be once blizzard sells you that as dlc.
>>
>>335795269
Mainly because of Anthony Burch injecting his social agendas into Borderlands after the first game and because Colonial Marines was a bad game.

All in all, Gearbox has made mostly mechanically solid games that have been plagued with poor writing.
>>
>>335784790
I hope it sells well so we can get Borderlands 3
>>
>>335795375
>get a job so you can pay for actual trash and memes
>>
>>335795434
I thought battleborn's writing was pretty decent though
>>
>>335795543
That's probably because Burch isn't the lead writer for it.
>>
>>335795423
But overwatch doesn't have a campaign/coop component, because they're not fucking retarded.
>>
>>335795269
Aliens: Colonial Marines and Duke Nukem Forever. Shut down Duke 3d reboot and are currently trying to kill EDuke32.

There's also Borderlands 2 and Anthony Burch but who cares.

I, on the other hand, only actually started enjoying the game after I turned off all voice and team chatter. Holy shoot was it obnoxious.

Don't listen to the retards, Gearbox is bad because their games have really shitty gameplay, not because of memes, not because of bad writing, it's because of the gameplay. Borderlands 2, Aliens and DNF have atrocious gameplay. There is also the fact that Gearbox's founder and CEO just lies on twitter about everything.

By the time I am ready to give a penny to 2K again battleborn will be on 90% sale or f2p.
>>
>>335795732
I feel like that has to do with the fact that Borderlands (and Battleborn) are not straight up shooters, so you have to pump an unreasonable amount of lead into enemies to kill them, making weapons feel weaker even though they aren't.
>>
>>335795269
Stole from an artist to make the aesthetics of Borderlands.
Fucked up Duke Nukem Forever.
Stole from Sega, fucking up Colonial Marines.
Trying to steal the EDuke32 port from a disabled man.
Passion for DLC.

They were fine when they were doing Half-Life expansions, that's the only good thing they made.
>>
I'm probably going to buy it, just to ride out the launch wave since I REALLY enjoyed what I played of the beta.
Is the preorder DLC worth it, or should I just wait?
>>
>>335796081
The season pass is just coop missions and instant unlock to new characters which will be available for everyone

I bought it because it was cheap, but really i dont think it will be worth it

>>335795968

Wasn't Gearbox the first developer to really push the whole 'season pass' mechanic with BL2? Even COD didn't have a season pass until BO2.

BF3 did that before BL2. I'm sure there are games that did it even before that.

i don't think battleborn has any excuse considering melee feels really great
>>
>>335796865
I wouldn't say great, but I wouldn't call it bad.
The only problem with melee is that there are so many effects and when you are that close to them its a little much, but thats only when you are right in the thick of it.

I tried the free beta, i like everyone else i was expecting it to be horrible, but to my surprise the PVP aspect of it is really good, its fun, its fast paced, its skill based.

But at $60 there is absolutely no way im going to buy it, i only care about the PVP and there is no way that is worth $60, the co-op missions are fucking retarded mob grinds.

People buy battlefield and call of duty all the time, nobody fucking cares about those campaigns either it's just the multiplayer. But when a game has no campaign because nobody would play it anyway then it's suddenly too expensive

You can't offer a inferior product compared to others in your same market and expect people to pay 4x more from it and when confronted you say "bu-bu-bu-but the coop missions are worth $60", NO, is a shitty MOBA with npc grinding "missions".

Remove a part of a game that's "expected", still charge full price and expect people to not care. Get mad when they do.

I loved the beta. I had a lot more fun than I thought I would but I'm afraid it'll be DOA. I can see why it's a $60 price tag but it still feels steep. If it ends up doing well community wise then I'll probably pick it up.

Yep, already have my pre-order, counting down the days till release.
Sunk too many hours into the Beta and will probably sink too many hours into the actual game on release; but f**k me if the ride won't be fun as hell.

Bought it from G2A for $30.

I don't think it's $60 good, but it's certainly $30 good.

I think it'll maintain a pleasantly sized community, particularly if they support the game with hotfixes and QoL updates.

I've played games that only had 50 total players, things have a way of working out.

Take it from a Destiny fan: impact feels pretty damn solid in Battleborn.

>>335811780
I got to level 25ish after 20ish hours at which point i had most heroes unlocked
But all heroes have a secondary condition for unlock for example beat some coop mission on hard, so you dont need to grind levels to unlock specific ones

>>335811780
Each Battleborn has 2 ways to unlock them. You can either make it to a certain level or complete a challenge. Some are unlocked via story, some are unlocked by winning 5 matches with characters from a specific faction. Maybe 20-30 hours to unlock everyone during the mostly PvP beta (had to get to lvl 40 for Ghalt).

No mentions of how it takes about 50 hours or more to level a character after unlock to 15, and that it's necessary because it unlocks extra talents choices?

FPS, fighting and racing games are usually locked at 60 even on console, fats, competitive games are borderline unplayable at 30. look at Driveclub, it's one of the few racing games locked at 30 and it was complete garbage. Battleborn being 30 while Overwatch is 60, I think that's going to be a big deal.

I'm thinking about it.

On one hand, the multiplayer was a lot of fun.

On the other hand, the singleplayer wasn't fun at all, and they're charging $60 for it. Seriously, how do you make Borderlands gameplay that's even less fun then Borderlands?

>>335816542
By somehow making singleplayer into a sort of MMO dungeon-lite FPS.

much more fun coop than borderlands if you only have a few people since enemies die quickly

If you aren't shit you can obtain weapons and build your character to absolutely devastate everything on the hardest difficulties.

If I may interject, I've noticed a lot of poorfags complain about the price. However, are they really thinking about why that price is the way it is?

If you think about it there's actually a lot to cover in this game:
Single player and coop story mode with 8 missions (for now). All of which need to be balanced, levels and Bosses designed, and run ~45mins each (from what I could tell in the CTT and Beta).
PvP with 3 modes (for now), Meltdown, Incursion, and Capture. All of which need levels to design and balances implemented.
Enemies and bosses needed to be designed, balanced, and implemented into their environments.
Then there's the 25 (for now) Battleborn. All of which need to be designed, differentiated, and balanced.
Gear as well, which need to be designed and set to not create something unbalanced.
Plus, there's all the time and manpower put into making the game. Graphic designers, storyboarders, voice actors, animators, artists, etc. etc.

I dunno, maybe it's just me, but I feel like a lot of poorfags here only complain about $60 because they're neets who can't afford anything. Am I in the wrong here? Like, I feel that $60 is a reasonable asking price considering everything put into the game and everything the game offers.
>>
>>335818174
If you want all the DLC, it's $80.

>Plus, there's all the time and manpower put into making the game
I'd happily pay that if it were more optimized and cleaner visually.

>>335818174
I think it's because people are still comparing this to games like Overwatch which are overall cheaper than Battleborn.
>>
>>335818174
the biggest complaint against the price is overwatch only being 40 bucks, but overwatch also has less content

the same people who complain about this probably still buy the latest battlefield for 60 bucks and never touch the singleplayer because it's fucking shit and might as well not exist, so i dont get the complaint

It's $80 total for the game+dlc if you buy them separate on Steam. $75 if you buy the "Digital Deluxe Pre-order" bullshit, and $20 gets you, what? They say
>5 DLC packs, each pack allowing you to command you Battleborn on all new Story Operations
So that's 5 more Story levels that they have to design, balance, yadda yadda yadda.
>instantly unlock 5 new heroes when they release
You can unlock the new Heroes over time through challenges, but people will pay for convenience. Plus, those 5 new characters need to be designed, balanced, blah blah blah
>gain awesome new skins and taunts
I think I heard that the skins in the Beta were just placeholders for actuall skin changes but don't quote me on that. However, people pay for customization if they have the income for it. And you have to pay the artists, graphic designers, etc. etc. etc.

Optimization I can understand. Some people complain the game runs like shit, others say it runs fine. I'm in the inbetween, it runs fine but can stutter and have frame-rate drops but nothing game-breaking for me.
>cleaner visually
I'm not sure I understand. Do you want the graphics to look more realistic or do you just not understand everything that's happening on-screen? Cause I can feel ya if it looks like a visual amalgamation of different animations happening at once.

>>335818830
>>335818636
I haven't played Overwatch and am getting my info from http://us.battle.net/overwatch/en/
So, if we compare it to Overwatch, then Battleborn still looks better.
Overwatch has no Story Mode
PvP only has 2 gametypes (dunno about map variety)
There are no NPC enemies
Only 21 Heroes to choose from
No Gear
Manpower I'm going to nullify for both

I mean, yeah it's cheaper (like you said), but it has a lot less content (like you said). Do neets and poorfags not understand this concept or do they see the waifus and throw everything else out the window? I know sex sells, but, c'mon.
>>
>>335820879
>(dunno about map variety)
I looked again and it looks like 5 maps for one and 3 for another. That's probably comparable for Battleborn's PvP since I'm not sure about Battleborn's map variety.
