Skins coming up next patch edition. Dataminer guy said he couldn't load textures so the spoils look funny, but you can find them at the usual place.
>What is Paladins?
http://www.paladins.com/
Paladins is a hero-based objective-focused first-person shooter (FPS) by Hi-Rez Studios, the makers of SMITE. Currently in closed beta, it's a free-to-play alternative to the likes of Overwatch, Battleborn or Gigantic. The main gimmick of the game is the card system: as you progress through a match, you randomly draw and select cards from your character's "deck" to augment your health, damage and abilities.

W0w m8, you copy pasted the crap out of that.
3rd for Old Pip design looked better
>>126033673
they realized that the model looked 10 times better compared to the one they use now and decided to make it a skin in order to get some sweet cash. Mark my words.
>>126033673
Eh. I dunno.
Why do we even try
>>126041692
Because we care.
>>126042065
I do care. I wish there was some way I could help more.
cassie is cute cute CUTE!
can we all agree that the game is dead already?
>>126048814
Atleast this place has a general, I was searching for overwatch when i found this game.
>>126051174
Well, Overwatch's beta is over, wait a week and a half and this place will be swarmed.
>>126051174
well it was a closed beta before and has no beta now so there's literally nothing to discuss when you can't play the game, you were lucky to get into the beta before anyways
>>126051873
Oh yeah, it's the long wait for Overwatch now, isn't it?
is this game any good? considering buying a founders pack but don't want to buy a dead game.
>>126059660
>is this game any good?
Yes, be aware this is early beta and we're still getting a lot of patches.
>considering buying a founders pack but don't want to buy a dead game.
Don't, just post a mail address and someone will send you a key, use a throwaway one if you wan.

Are those who leave mid-game replaced with bots?

Yes
r63 ghork when?
>>126068656
art in general when?
>>126068056
Yes, but what's really stupid is that the other team seems to get regular score for killing them. That means your dc/d teammates can be farmed for a snowball lead, and the AI loves to blindly rush in.

Please for the love of God, if you're playing as Pip or Cassie or Skye, don't stand on the fucking point unless most of the enemy team is dead
flank and kill their assassins, why is this such a hard concept to grasp

Those are some giant nipples.
>STILL trying to make threads for this dead game
Lol
>>126077393
it's just a slower thread, anon.
>>126077023
Is there skill-based matchmaking? This game doesn't even keep track of your statistics other than your rank.
>>126076845
Glad we've at least got 1 artist, lookin' good.
>>126077080
It gets cold in an outfit like that anon.
>>126077946
no there's not
>>126077946
Not currently. They're still ironing out the core mechanics for the game. At least shitstomps are mercifully quick in this game (6-10').
>>126077572
Things were more intense few threads ago, maybe people are losing interest fast. There's no Devilian general ...antymore?
>>126079323
It'll pick up again when a new update arrives.
>>126079323
Game crashes constantly. Some server restart recently wiped alot of progress. PoE is superior.

>Cards are anti-fun

>>126079801
Isn't that exactly what you do in constructed mode anyway except you have to unlock all the "Talents" through crates.
>>126079801
>Card system should tie in to the lore
>Characters need more depth and be less unoriginal
I agree with these but
>Talent system would improve the game
>One of the main things that sets this game apart and what monetization looks like it's going to be based off of is dragging the game down
>Forcing people into rigid talents makes for more strategic and deep play
What the fuck is the forum our reddit? I know this post was made before .10, but there's been talk of a constructed system for months. Not only that, but he's suggesting the entire pitch of the game should be changed.
>Tfw the guy that picks Barik before you doesn't take Architectonics
These people make me really fucking mad mate. AND before you ask no they don't go memeboots builds either, most of the time they take fucking double time
>>126080636
Kind of? You acquire more unique cards from boosters, and from the pool of cards available to you, you pull 15 (three of each rarity type) to set up for your deck. Once you're in game, you level up by picking 5 of those 15 cards to power up as the match goes on. You're actively leveling throughout the game (just like Gigantic), and what you put in your deck is entirely your call. Apart from not having a particular card in your overall inventory, you have no excuse for your shit build because YOU EXPLICITLY CHOSE THAT SHIT BUILD, TWICE OVER.
>>126081324

>>126082001
>not having 2 turrets with deus ex machina
you're placing shit turrets if you need that card desu senpai
>>126081814
To use the talent analogy, you design your own talent tree before the game begins so that when you get in-game, you can level and select the exact talents you want.
>>126082282
Not having every talent unlocked is bothering some people.
>You need to collect them and buy card packs because that's what you do with cards.
Still better than having to pay for characters. They will be free right, guys ...?
>>126081858
You aren't memeing me today.
>>126082738
Correct. Every character will be freely accessible by everyone.
>>126082932
Source?
>>126082932
And you will always have the minimum number of cards required to have at least a working deck. If you want more options, you need to get new cards. If you want to get new cards, you need to earn/buy boosters or craft them from your spare duplicates (which you will inevitably get from previously mentioned boosters).
>>126082979
It's all over the promo videos for the game. Everyone gets access to every character for free.
anyone have a extra key?
>>126083957
try this one. It says sent but nobody ever redeemed it.
PB2RQB63AA63951201
I'd like to get better at this game, and I could use some decent builds for Ruckus and Fernando. Suggestions? I'm hoping for stuff more versatile so I can adapt to what's on the enemy team rather than "build these 5 cards every time".
>>126084373
thanks m8
>>126055161
Owerwatch Beta is planned to come back early next year but it's dependent on Blizz working out the progression system to their satisfaction so it can be included in the beta.
I've got 4 keys. Anyone?

I'll take one. Registered for beta 5 minutes ago and cant wait any longer.

is this just a game capitalizing on blizzard's timing or does it hold it's own?
>>126093416
I believe the game holds its own. This was in the works for at least a couple years, I think.
>>126093416
It doesn't feel like a cash grab
I wish I had others to play with though I would like to strategize
Who is your main?

No seriously, tanks are much more fun to play. Don't you agree?
>>126106905
once your skills are down and you're in combat, not much. Low movement speed fucks everything up.
>>126107401
You are always fucked when someone jumps you while all your skills are on cooldown. Especially when you are Skye with 2k health.
>>126106905
The. Most. Fun. :).
>>126089227
my credit card only has 3 numbers, is that okay?
>>126105930
Talk me through it, buddy.
Just maneuverability based, or what?
>>126110265
You just ride behind enemy lines and use you jumpl to chase them when they try to escape. It's even easier now that Skye isn't completely invisible anymore.
>>126110784
Oh, pretty much exactly how I played Buck anyway.
Just a fat annoying fucker that ties up some of their damage dealers in the back line.
>>126112273
Don't fuck with Buck.
>>126108534
at least you still have damage.
