What Happened to Battleborn?
Title. I rarely see anyone talk about it anymore nor is it high on twitch.
Did it die quietly?
Personally I can't get into it, 8 missions that are essentially horde mode and don't change at all with no other pve content or open world
Don't even get me started on pvp
Discuss, do you still play? And is the player base still alive?
Edit: just looked it up on twitch, highest viewed stream atm has 8 viewers.

Dark spirit Blizzard invaded.

It died enough said

1 ReplyYou do realize your name is the name of one of the fabled support characters in Overwatch. Overwatch killed battleborn.

Overwatch. Poor advertising. Poor marketing. Slow gameplay(as an fps anyways) And most importantly? Overwatch.
-
Battle what?
-
I never played Battleborn, but from what I saw from what I saw from the trailers and the game play it looked super lame.

1 ReplySomething I heard from elsewhere [Battleborn] has it's flaws , every game has, they have been discussed at length. it sure does needs some work, some of wich has allready been done, but it's barely been aknowledged. But this Topic, for once is about taking a look at ourselves, make a little place for introspection. Year in and year out we complain about Ubisoft and EA selling the same grey generic shell of game. We mock them for playing it safe, trying nothing new. (Yet somehow they still sell like hot cakes.) A publisher takes an existing F2P concept that works, uses recycled assets from a dead project , gives the whole thing a new coat of paint ( albeit masterfull , polished coat of paint, runs and looks fantastic) adds butss and boobies. Get away with no campaign , hit boxes the size of Rosanne Barr and a 40 to 60 dollar price tag and people rush in the millions to buy it. But when I see the patience, the support we give a develloper when they actually try something new. I am wondering if Ubisoft hasn't got us all figured out. Maybe all we deserve is the grey sludge or just a nice coat of paint on something safe.

Overwatch happened

1 ReplyBattleborn is Stillborn.

Overwatch. [spoiler]'nough said [/spoiler]

Looks like they're already adding micro transactions. Must be doing really well. /sarcasm

1 ReplyOverwatch and not enough advertisement happened. They should have delayed it to mid summer. Would have been something new in the gaming summer drought and people probably would have eaten it up. But that's just a theory...
-
30 fps killed that game
-
Its fun but Overwatch and them hardly advertising or hyping it destroyed it. I enjoy the game but none of my friends play I solo cue and get wrecked by teams or play campaign missions.
-
They started selling it at 60 in early May. At the end of the month it was on sale for 20. That tells you all you need to know on how successful it is. It's failing miserably.
-
They never should have made battleborn they should have been getting borderlands ready for this year I hope they learned there lesions and just stick to borderlands
-
Overwatch bullied it out unfortunately.
-
I still play it, many people play it when I hop online at any time of the day. Obviously sales wise it couldn't compete with Overwatch which is a shame really.
-
Never played it
-
Pvp still fun but overwatch overshadow it....
-
They advertised it terribly.
-
2 RepliesI could say the same about uncharted 4. Apparently the best exclusive ps4 title and a week after launch I've heard absolutely nothing about it.
-
Game looked fun but it died because it wanted to compete with overwatch
-
It was buried under Blizzard's superior marketing campaign.
-
It died?
-
All I know about it is that my local Walmart slashed the price down to 40$ two weeks after release.
