Just having some strong woman isn't exactly designing an entire game for the SJW boogeyman.
It failed because it looks and plays horrible, while at the same time being entirely forgettable.
The SJW weren't the reason for this abortion of a game at all. Gearbox being a bunch of incompetent hacks who can only make cartoonish shit is.

The paper clearly says HDMI and 2.0M, so it's safe to say that those are 2 meter long HDMI cables, not dulashocks.

It's actually the price for the ethernet cable behind the controllers.

Evolve was also a huge disaster, but 2K denied them the F2P lifesupport.

Battledead is also a 2K title, so won't get to go F2P.

It's funny that all these kids (typical behavior for young adult males under the age of 23), are riding the Battleborn Bandwagon of hate, but who here has actually played it? The intro cutscene wasn't bad, and the gameplay actually does look fun. The biggest detractor for me though, is that I can buy a team based FPS for 40 dollars from a company I know is going to deliver, or I can spend 60 bucks on a game concept that the most traction that it ever got was with Monday Night Combat, from a company that are complete virgins when it comes to this type of gameplay. I spent the 40 bucks and am still waiting for the 60 dollar game to become what it is meant to be, either a 20 dollar 1 time pay model or a FTP model. That is why I haven't played Battleborn, but not because I need to feel better about myself by shitting on something I don't have a clue about.

They've said a lot of things, but the only shit they've managed is extra characters, some carrot grind skins, and special 'gold' skins for people who paid full retail.

I think there was a balance pass that fucked the balance completely. Game's fucking dead, and turtlerock is probably working on a new game behind the scenes.

What kind of person who enjoys games buys into marketing anyways. There are a ton of games on Steam with virtually no marketing that are worth playing. You're telling me you need to be sold on something under the notion that you know for a fact you're being lied to. Name one game that had the funding to be marketed to the mainstream that actually lived up to all of the hype that the marketing created for it? That is the point of marketing, to make your okay product look like the best shit ever. How do you think Nintendo still exists?

I would actually try it out if it was F2P.

The concept of FPSMOBA is pretty cool but this game had no hope in hell with a developer like this, but hey if its free I'll try it.

Gearbox makes one game a cycle, so this is a huge disaster. Even with a billion promo sales, they can't keep this game out of the bargain bin.

They thought they could compete with overwatch, but little did they know their true competition is shit like MWO, hawken, and metal war online retribution.

Even trash like warframe has 20k people. Overwatch hovers anywhere from 400 to 600. This is just as big a flop as evolve before it. It's probably causing quakes within the company.

I last tried getting a game last year when there were ~200 players online and you can even get the queue to pop, waiting more than half an hour.
