got it at gmg for -55%, it's actually pretty fun, not the best game ever, but for that price it's pretty good.
Why? They brought it on themselves
They shit on consumers
They butchered colonial marines for bodermemes
They're an awful company.
I don't, thanks to Randy
>terrible marketing
>try to compete with blizzard
they deserved it
Every screenshot of Battleborn is painful to look upon.
I hate seeing anyone/anything fail this hard.
Mostly cause of the artists/programmers on the team. They'll be hunting down jobs down the line and have this commercial failure hanging over them regardless how well they worked on it at their level.
>>339052507
Randy deserve it
All they had to do was make the Bastogne sequel for Brothers In Arms.
Fuck Gearbox.
Is #GamerGate to blame for this game's flop?
>>339052507
It didn't even make it to the Steam player stats, tip kok
It's a shame, because I think I could play and enjoy an FPS ASSFAGGOTS

>>339054519
there's no way right pic is real
>>339052507
So whats the thing here, to my eye Overshit and Battleshit both look like the exact same shitty game?
They should have shelved the game until the overwatch hype died down, it's hard to believe an AAA game not even appearing on Steam's top games on release day
It's like they tried to release their own MMO on the same day as a WoW expansion and got trampled
>>339054519
My favorite part about this picture, the thing that makes me actually laugh every time is that there is a "fingerless glove meter" in the joke pic, and at the bottom right of the ACTUAL GAME there is a glove with 352... glove points?
Shit fucking cracks me up, it's such a shitshow.
>>339052758
Yeah I think their dumbest mistake was trying to compare themselves directly with Overwatch. Battleborn doesn't play anything like Overwatch and Overwatch is much more of a traditional FPS than Battleborn. Battleborn is a first person perspective ASSFAGOTS, and trying to market it as a potential alternative to people interested in Overwatch was suicide. If you like ASSFAGOTS then maybe Battleborn is your cup of tea, but I played it and I thought it was dreadfully boring.
Between the two I would have chosen Overwatch, but since my brothers bought Battleborn I decided to hell with it and just bought Doom. They were disappointed that I didn't want to play BB with them but I don't see what's the point of spending my own money on a game that I don't want, and I don't want to buy Overwatch if I'm going to be playing it by myself.
Is this the hardest flop of the last ten years?
>>339054519

>>339054591
She said that because she wanted to say that, not because that's what the characters are like. I personally find them all both shallow and annoying. Not even trying to be contrarian, but I personally think that every single one of them is really boring and some are really grating, especially the women. Having learned french in school AND living in a country close to russia, the game already managed to annoy me with Widowmaker's shitty french and awful accent and Zarya being unlike any russian woman in existence and it all went downhill from there. My english friend also told me that Tracer's accent doesn't match her attitude, and that it's very obvious that she was marketed towards americans instead of trying to be inclusive of central londoners.
>>339054339
Incorrect.
>>339052507
I wish their company would die due to this blunder but they won't. I went back and played border lands 2 the other day and realised just how shit it really is.
I don't. They tried to release a similar game to something Blizzard was releasing at the same time, and on top of that they didn't want to spend the money they should have on marketing. Fuck 'em.

In another thread, someone had to ask me what a HUD was after using UI, and believe me, I thought i was above being triggered.

>Her accent doesn't match her attitude
That's like saying there's no liberal Southerners in 'Merica; which is patently false. Your accent doesn't make you act a certain way.

Based Universe dishing out karma.
>>339055624
Sounds like you need to chill out, UI is as old as HUD just a broader term.
>>339055343
didnt the game cost way more to make?
>>339055575
Yeah, but I didn't get the national stereotypes vibe from TF2. They are from different countries, sure, but the focus isn't on their stereotypes but on what a bunch of assholes they individually are as opposed to Overwatch, where it's just cartoon characters made for 5 year olds.

Why did you rush it out? You had to know you couldn't compete with Overwatch but you did anyway. At least get out of Alpha before you release the damn game
>>339055782
I remember hearing about this a lot, but it never happened to me, so I have no idea.
Still, shit game. Huttball could be fun though.
>>339055917
rumor was $500m to make
They've made well beyond that in the time it's been alive

But it's a more localized thing and there's a reason stereotypes exist. He said that the people who speak with that accent both 1. Take things a lot more seriously and don't fuck around and 2. Swear a lot, and that Tracer felt very unrealistic to him and that it was very obvious americans wrote her.

What an idiot, he's not even credited, he could have said nothing and gotten away with it.
That being said, he wasn't lead writer and what he did contribute would have been back in the game's early stages of development and was probably just a few lines of dialogue or item descriptions. The tweet was just to rep Aaron Linde, who he'd been friends with since his days at Destructoid.

god damn blizzard man, they're so good at selling their games its incredible. We can shit all we want about specific things in each of their games but at the very least, most of the visuals, sounds and just overall presentation of everything is always smooth and easy from the get-go.

Nah, I ain't believing you. There are 11 million steam users and 2000 Battleborn players. There's a 0.0181% chance of that happening.
And no, I didn't forget to multiply by 100: it's not 1.81%.
>>339055921
Tf2 did it better because the national background is a backdrop for the character instead of the entire character like in over watch, but every single one of them (except pyro?) is a national or regional stereotype and that probably why over watch does it too
>>339057526
is that peak players? I have trouble believing there's ONLY 2000 complete retards out there. more people buy literal shovelware.
I love this so much, fuck gearbox
Seeing these aaa multiplayer only games fail so hard is so satisfying, same with Battlefront and Evolve
>>339056867
To be slightly fair, the comics are complete ass.
They just aren't fun or comedic like TF2 comics were, they lose all the personality that the animations and game have. Only the Junkrat one was pretty good.
>>339057264
That's not a rumor, it's just pure speculation coming from one person. I don't even know why anyone ever even bothered to report it, the article is essentially a "This guy reckons..." article. Who the fuck cares what he reckons?
And not only that, it's obvious he is severely overestimating his estimate by including such things as the purchase of Bioware in the development costs of SWTOR.
>>339057631
No, those are current users numbers. The proportions are likely to be similar (as BB players increase, so do total logged in Steam users) regardless of the time.
>>339055031
I just listened to Tracer's voicelines, and I'm having difficulty telling exactly what's going on. I'm pretty sure it's either an American voice actress who can sort of do an English accent, but one which meanders between Oxford University and the East End, or it's some posh Southern cunt who definitely can't do a cockney accent.
In any case, it's seriously horrible to listen to and definitely not what English people sound like.
>>339056867
>watch that animated intro
>immediately starts of with le ebin sarcasm
>STOOOHNE
>nope the fuck out of there and never look back
I honestly want this game to fail as hard as it can based in part on that intro alone. Pretty much all of the writing and voice acting are also valid reasons for gearbox to lose money.
Also is one of their characters named Kleese because they hoped to get John Cleese to do his voice? Because I have this vague feeling that that might be the case and I hate it.
>>339057208
I feel like polish is as important an aspect of my enjoyment of a game as anything else at this point. The amount of video games with innate gameplay problems, terrible optimization, and general jankiness that are being released is absolutely mind boggling. Playing a game that's smooth and easy to control (as in high response, tight) is unbelievably refreshing
>>339057706
I don't even know why you're up in arms about this. Bioware/EA has made well over $500m, let alone $200m from the old republic. It's been a success in literally every way.

>>339056236
Because they've never made a good game and their writing is atrocious and filled with political tracts. The only good thing they've ever done was an expansion pack for Half Life, and it seems that the entire team either was replaced by someone else or they all got a brain parasite that turned them into incompetent swindlers.

Also, BB is way more complete, has better stuff, characters, campaing, modes, is a better overall game, you can clearly see they used the money on the game here.

That comparison does not describe the situation at all.
Please stop posting here until you get rid of that extra chromosome.
>>339066268
yes. The guy who created the first video game is conceptually the creator of every video game since.
>>339066268
Now that's just silly. Mechanically speaking, DotA needed WC3 to even exist in the first place.
>>339060650
Because Blizzard actually don't make good games. The logic was maybe if they made a game better- an easy feat, they've only made garbage for ten years- then they'd naturally be more successful. Unfortunately, video games isn't about good, it's about throwing money to shove it in people's faces until they give you more money because they're dumb fucking pigs walking into the slaughterhouse.
>>339066517
Not to mention most of the models in DOTA2 retain a lot of the warcraft 3 aesthetic.
See: Wisp, QoP, Axe, Troll Warlord, Outworld devourer. and many more.
>>339066517
And WC3 needed WC2 which needed WC1 which needed the games it's based on and so on.
Everything returns to zero.
>>339066738
>WC created wisps and axes
>>339065657
Blizzard will have never made a single game if it wasn't for ripping off Game's Workshop.
>>339066757
But Blizzard worked on each of the Warcraft engines. DotA was built upon the foundation of WC3 after the fact.The guy who made the first video game probably had no design decisions that affected the first Mario Bros, much less the first Warcraft games.
>>339066874
Warcraft has fuck all to do with warhammer fantasy battles.
Maybe this would hold if dota was made in starcraft.

I thought the Symmetra and Reinhardt ones were pretty decent too.

Funny, because the next Aliens game that came out was great.
>>339067875
I believe it does but heroes in that game could not level up and didnt have skills. It's vastly different from DotA, which was made in Warcraft and the genre gained traction there. Not to mention DOTA2 has mechanics that emulate the warcraft 3 engine to make it as close to the original as possible.

Something like this.
Picture some medium-range company (like Gearbox) suddenly deciding to make a MMO that cuts right into the market of WoW and FFXIV, with similar mechanics, gameplay, but severely watered down, uglier graphics and character design and next to no costumer support.
If Gearbox though anyone at all would turn their back on Overwatch to play Battleborn, they might as well cut a deal Fox because they're executives are literally a pack of braindead gorillas, and the two groups would understand each other perfectly.

They DO own DN3D now since 3DRealms gave up that after the lawsuit. They fucked up when Mass Destruction/Bombshell clearly infringed on the contract and if they didn't want to lose what little they had, they had to concede
Fuck 3DRealms.

I think the Triple Town devs successfully sued the Yeti Town devs over the style (gameplay at least)... and got awarded ownership over Yeti Town and all profits
I think EA sued someone successfully over the specific pre-set colours in a The Sims clone.
The fact that they contacted the guy, got him to basically show them how it was done (it was the cel-shading artstyle they "suddenly" switched to), there's at least some technical as well as artistic style "taken". Arguably you could call it a breach of contract (i.e. "employment for a desirable pitch"), but that depends on how that approach was made.
I am so happy this is dead. Not out of ill will towards gearbox but man this whole type of game where devs put out half finished multiplayer-only shooter on the promise they will deliver content later, and charging 60 bucks for that, makes me sick in my stomach. And then there's micropayments and preorder bonuses and what have you, fuck Titanfall, fuck Evolve, fuck Overwatch and fuck Battleborn to hell and back.
And 3 of those cancer cells have now died. This time, we, the consumers, won. This shit is shameless and I'm delighted it's not working out for the devs. That's some newfound hope for our beloved video game industry right there.
You can put all the feminist shit in your game I don't care, at least the pretentious fuckwads who shit things up with their cinetastic pseudogames don't charge 60 bucks. Sometimes we need to remember that the REAL enemy is still the guy in the suit who spends half of the budget on marketing and focus-testing to make sure the game turns a profit, not the indie idiot who still, at the bottom of their heart, loves video games and has no malicious intent towards their fellow video game enthusiast.

Because it isn't.
Aliens is a fucking action movie. Spoiler alert: We have enough action games to last a lifetime. It also didn't help that it was also a repetitive one.
Alien is a horror film. When was the last time a big budget horror game came out? Silent Hills is a dream. Alien Isolation was the last one.
By the way, despite all the shit ACM gets, it's actually a better call of duty if you think about it

Yet for some reason, it's heralded as the antichrist when beyond bugs and retcons(like AVP didn't run that shit into the dirt), it's really just a mediocre to poor shooter.

It was in development for over a decade and it's unplayable. Just because a shooter has healthpacks and more than two carryable guns doesn't make it even decent.

I'm not disagreeing. It was a good thing it was a horror game because this IP never produced one. Look it fuck up. The closest you will get to a horror vibe is the marine sections of AVP1 and 2. And that's stretching it. Like calling HL2 a horror title just because of Ravenholm.

2001. It was cancelled that year, but then handed to Gearbox and they started up production that same year.

That's not what a hyperbole is, you moron. The game cannot be played. Many bugs make it impossible to proceed in parts, many of which randomly trigger, and this isn't counting all the dumb shit like enemies not seeing you and whatnot.

It's one section of three. And the marine section ain't that scary to begin with. Thief 1 is more appropriately tied to the horror genre than AVP.
>Yeah, it was revealed in 2008. It was started long before then.
No you idiot. How can you be this willingly ignorant? Sega got the license in 2006. They contacted gearbox a year later in late 07. The announcement was done in 2008.
I want you to dispute this point. Find any article on the net you want to claim otherwise. I fucking dare you.

Stop trying to make a mountain out of a mole hill.
It's boring.
>You're comparing one level of HL2 with the majority of the levels in both AVP1 and AVP2.
The majority of the levels in both 1 and 2 have you playing as death machines. They're just imitating the vibe of Aliens. Tense action games for the marine sections but just that. Action games.
Isolation works because it went back to the first game. When the creature was Death with acid. A true lovecraftian monstrosity, unknowable in its intent and thoughts. Not a damn bug.

By one third, you mean the main section of both games? And your Thief analogy is shit, because I played the fuck out of that game and only about three of the thirteen levels are horror based, not even counting the Gold missions. So you basically just agreed that AVP1 and 2 are horror games.
>No you idiot. How can you be this willingly ignorant? Sega got the license in 2006. They contacted gearbox a year later in late 07. The announcement was done in 2008.
And Gearbox was working on it before that. It's almost like you think Gearbox is a subdivision of Sega and not an independent entity.
>I played post patch fyi. I saw glitches but nothing gamebreaking on both platforms.
So you're saying that you didn't actually play Colonial Marines, just some shitty patched versions months/years later. Might as well say the Anor Londo archers were easy when you played on the 1.04 patch.
>The majority of the levels in both 1 and 2 have you playing as death machines. They're just imitating the vibe of Aliens. Tense action games for the marine sections but just that. Action games.
1 is just the same game played with three different characters on the same levels. 2, the vast majority of the game is playing as the marine. By your own logic with the Thief analogy, that's more than enough.

They didn't. I'm still waiting for you to dispute it. How the fuck can they work on a game for a license they did not own. Oh wait, they didn't. Because production didn't start until 2008. Prove me wrong unless you're chicken shit because you know you have no case. No reddit diatribe from Sega employees, no court documents. NOTHING.
LITERALLY NOTHING
>And your Thief analogy is shit,
The Thief analogy is correct since it does more of a horror vibe than AVP1 and 2 in their entirety as individual games.
Oh look. Blasting xenos with a shotgun. How terrifying..
>So you're saying that you didn't actually play Colonial Marines
>Because it was patched, you didn't play the game!!
Seriously though, why should i pay attention to the rest?
Why are you so insistent in claiming this game was in active development since 2001 when there is Z-E-R-O evidence to support it?
Do you have anything? A news article, a internet wayback machine, a crystal ball? It astounds me how you can be so pigheaded about this one element that a simple google search will blow you the fuck out.

I don't know. How DID they make expansions for Half Life, if Valve owns the rights?
>LITERALLY NOTHING

>The Thief analogy is correct since it does more of a horror vibe than AVP1 and 2 in their entirety as individual games.
>Oh look. Blasting xenos with a shotgun. How terrifying..
The Thief games had less horror levels and less of a horror vibe going than the first AVP did. Did you ever even play it? To say it's "just blasting xenos" is completely asinine. By that logic, I can say that Thief was "just whacking zombies."
>Why are you so insistent in claiming this game was in active development since 2001 when there is Z-E-R-O evidence to support it?
I love how your argument revolves around this, but even the wikipedia page has sources in the first part of the development section that says you're wrong. Your analogies are shit, you didn't play the game, you didn't play the earlier games, and you're just a faggot that needs to type in caps to pretend like he's smart.

>DNF was one of the most hyped games in existence
>It was so terrible that it's not even mentioned in Gearbox hate threats
I liked opposing force tho
>>339077245
Yeah, they moved them around so that they're much easier. There was a thread a few weeks back of some guy pretending like he was the best, and everyone pointed out that 1.04 made the game much easier by shifting the left archer out further so you're not being shot in the back while fighting the right archer.

>>mfw when OW is a FPSARENA for competitive and doesnt even have RANKED MATCHES LOL
Ranked becomes available at lvl 30.

Battleborn actually was the first game I deinstalled in under 20 minutes because the UI makes me physically ill.
>>339077215
>I don't know. How DID they make expansions for Half Life, if Valve owns the rights?
Discussion with Valve and an agreement was put forth and production started afterwards. Not beforehand.
>Did you try the two interviews with game informer that gearbox did just after Sega announced the game?
Link them.
>but even the wikipedia page has sources in the first part of the development section that says you're wrong
Oh you mean THESE SOURCES?
>Despite the similarities in gameplay and story, however, Gearbox has claimed that their game is unrelated to this early version.[22][23]
THE ONE DEVELOPED BY FOX INTERACTIVE? THE ONE THAT WAS CANCELLED IN 2002? A YEAR AFTERWARDS THE DATE YOU CLAIM GEARBOX STARTED IT?
OH THAT SOURCE?
Seriously, link the article. Or do i need to go down the attic and dig up my physical copy of the interview?
>>339077685
>Discussion with Valve and an agreement was put forth and production started afterwards. Not beforehand.
And discussion with Fox happened before Sega got the rights. Weird, right?
>Link them.
Literally the first two sublinks in the section I just told you about.
>Or do i need to go down the attic and dig up my physical copy of the interview?
Go for it. Dig up Thief, too, because you need to play it. It's a good game, even if it only has three horror sections, one of which is just the second half of the other level.
>>339067363
>lost 3/4 of playerbase within 3 weeks
Holy shit, this is fucking hilarious
>>339078257
Halo 4 lost half of its playerbase to Blops 2 a week after launch. But Battleborn's tiny playerbase size makes it almost cute in its failure.
>>339056236
They've gotten a court injunction to stop all versions of Duke 3D from being sold despite the fact that they are legally in the wrong there, and they're trying to release their own version of Duke 3D with changed assets and voicelines and no strippers.
>>339077873
>And discussion with Fox happened before Sega got the rights. Weird, right?
Fact is, they didn't.
Fox has always been notorious for not giving out its license.
>Literally the first two sublinks in the section I just told you about.
Oh gee, the part which i copy pasted? The one simply claiming that it only had vague similarities to the 2001 version?
You bloody mook.
Admiteddly, i also got my dates wrong.
Announced in late 2006 when no work had been done and prototyped until the GI reveal in 2008.
Take a guess what happened even before that?
OH WAIT. SEGA GOT THE PUBLISHING RIGHTS FROM FOX.

4 DAYS LATER
NO WORK WAS DONE
Seriously. Shut up about.
>>339075901
A lot of ppl are still unsure if they should buy it for 40 bucks so they watch streams to see how it plays now that it´s been actually released. That and lazy ppl who just watch games anyway instead of playing.
>>339056867
I WANT THAT FUCKING WINSTON
>>339078547
>Fact is, they didn't.
And yet they did. Gearbox even said as much.
>Announced in late 2006 when no work had been done and prototyped until the GI reveal in 2008.
I love how you just ousted yourself as being unrelaible. It's Gearbox's word against yours, and you just spent half an hour crying that it was 2008, and now you have to backpedal to 2006, and Gearbox had a prototype going back in 2001 based off of the scrapped version. My story is consistent. Why isn't yours?
>>339056867
if the games were flipped and battleborn had blizzard's money behind it it would be in the same boat as overwatch
Even Valve knows what's up.
>>339056236
Try buying Duke3d on steam anon.

Man, there is something so fucking satisfying seeing some raving lunatic throwing a fit about ableist attacks in Dreamfall chapters, a game so fucking thick and smug in it's arrogant, leftist moral superiority. I love when the cunts start to tear each other apart.

Speaking of which..
>>339063356
Outside of the Borderlands series, Gearbox haven't made a successful game this fucking decade.
Literally outside of Borderlands anything they touch turns to shit (and the newest Borderlands was shit too).
>>339081196
all borderlands were shit and not just because of bad writing
>>339070123
Yes.
>>339081372
They might have been shit, but they were still financially successful. Gearbox haven't made another financially successful game this decade outside of the Borderlands games.
>>339080901
I cringed, like fuck man.
>>339080254
>slow paced
did he played the console version?
>>339067635
>past the first one.
They haven't made a good game since Earned in Blood, don't kid yourself.
>>339079325
>still
It used to be $60 on release, man those devs/their publisher was out of their motherfucking mind.
>>339066435
mfw I will not, nor will I ever be Anthony Burch
Battleborn is alot better than Overwatch.Keep on shilling you fucktards
>>339070318
Gearbox looked at that mess and thought it was worth polishing and publishing. They are hardly faultless.
>>339052507
They deserve this after embezzling Sega's money
>>339052507
>Season pass
I don't.
So after this massive failure that is Battleborn they will just go back to making Borderlands games till the end of time.
>>339073673
Finally a game where having an eye-patch will give me an advantage over everyone else. Thanks for being inclusive, Gearbox!

>>339083074
A faggot
What impresses me is that they were stupid enough to even try to get a piece of the MOBA cake, which already belongs to LoL and Dota 2 and is pretty much untouchable. Did they not see the the handful of retards that tried before them and failed miserably?
>>339067257
Alien isolation was a good game based on the alien franchise.
>>339083209
I honestly think they were blinded by the potential profits from successfully launching a competent moba on consoles.
>>339052507
>feeling sorry for gearbox
don't worry. Once they release duke nukem 3d reboot with all your favorite bazinga jokes, then you will stop feeling sorry for them, believe me
>>339083045
As long as it ain't on your left eye.
>>339052507
I don't. Moba is a shit genre and should die.
>>339068904
>>339068346
Battleborn's biggest problem is a lack of cute girls and subtlety.

Developers know. It's just that publishers and upper management types, who think only in terms of business buzzwords like synergy and leveraging, overrule and ignore the devs and anyone else in touch with reality.
>feeling sorry for Anthony Burch's dev studio
I'm glad I'm not him.
