Xellpnz Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Just inquisitive to see whom is playing the beta for overwatch or even playing battleborn? Been really enjoying these ever so much, and i tend to play more mmorpgs than competitive shooters. Admitted both different styles but the humor and styles of both have got me hooked, so whom else is playing! =)
DalekSec Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I'm loving overwatch, shame the beta ends today! But I have pre-ordered it. I basically think its TF2 on steroids
ZeroHour Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I do love Overwatch (Tip: buy it from 12 Month Xbox Live, Xbox Gift Cards, Fallout 4 CD Key, Black Ops 3 CD Key, Starwars Battlefront CD Key, Cheap CD Keys, low prices from cdkeys.com as its a lot cheaper) and it is a lot more enjoyable than CSGO.

Aye, i used to play CS.1.5/1.6 back in the day, but aimed more for mmorpgs than shooters for ages. but battleborn and overwatch kept me engaged the past few days. I'm loving overwatch, shame the beta ends today! But I have pre-ordered it. I basically think its TF2 on steroids I know i am depressed it finishes today =( but i am likely to preorder tonite after beta =)
Geoff Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Played it over the weekend and liked it a lot. I have it on pre-order anyway. Now got distracted by other games.
Arreks Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 Played the Overwatch beta and it was fun, but certainly not worth £30.
Xellpnz Posted May 10, 2016 Author Posted May 10, 2016 Don't forget all the DLC will be free. Due to *Inside rates* i get my deluxe copy for about £12. So extra free stuff and having fun for that price is a no brainer for me... hell even 30 is fine with myself.

I got the Origin addition, I play all the blizzard games so I now have more pets etc in other games!
GuyJD Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I played the Overwatch beta for a bit over the weekend found myself up against a team with 3 of the Grim reaper guys and 2 of the mobile turret guys (sorry don't know any of the character names) and couldn't even get out of the spawn area, it seems like some of the characters are way too over powered but other than that game I really enjoyed it but it is pretty much a TF2 clone and I loved that game.

Thing with Overwatch is that there tends to be a counter for everything. 2 bastions aka the turret robot guys, just use the lass with the jump pack and rocket launcher with aussy guy with the grenade launcher. Just means teams got to be flexible to switch out when needed.

Grab and smash nice and easy!
JJonas Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I’ve been playing a bit of Battleborn but I’m still drawn back to The Division.

Grab and smash nice and easy! I tend to main D.va with her suicide bombs, and attempting to get better with tracer. Though, did well with Reaper every so often! Again why i love the game as every one feels very unique and has that awesome tf2 feel. I’ve been playing a bit of Battleborn but I’m still drawn back to The Division. Ah the Division im keeping away after the damn hackers and glitchers in DZ, untill its fixed keeping away. Which saddens me since i LOVEEEEEEEE the damn game. Just cant justify making some kiddies evening with their hacks. But not to keen on the battleborn then?
NokiX Posted May 10, 2016 Posted May 10, 2016 I'm thinking about getting battleborn as I played the Beta and enjoyed it and that's the first game i genuinely enjoyed for a long time. Want to pre-order battlefield 1 though so i'm not sure which to go for!

Which saddens me since i LOVEEEEEEEE the damn game. Just cant justify making some kiddies evening with their hacks. But not to keen on the battleborn then? I’m on Xbox and not having too many problems in the DZ with glitchers but I don’t tend to be in there in the evening so maybe we are missing each other. Which is good. I’m enjoying Battleborn but it has not drawn me in as much as The Division and I think part of that is the grouping system, when you group with randoms at the end of the mission win or fail it drops you back at the start screen. On your own. I would prefer to remain grouped and get the chance to run again with the same people. I know I can group up with friends but at the moment most of my friends are playing Division. Think I need to make some Battleborn ones.

haci Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Currently playing Battleborn and enjoying it enough that I didn't make the overwatch beta, probably in the minority but after seeing video's of overwatch it just didn't appeal to me in the way battleborn did/does.

I enjoyed both quite well, Overwatch has that fast paced TF2/character skill based combat. While Battleborn has the comical, moba, pvp style battles. Sadly i feel battleborn characters need some nerfs and the game needs some more maps.

Sadly i feel battleborn characters need some nerfs and the game needs some more maps. Definitely some balance issues to work on, I've always felt that more complex characters should be more powerful when used well than simplistic characters battleborn has quite a few examples that go against that principle, I guess you can see that as good or bad depending on perspective, regardless I still think that generally the more skilled player would come out on top in most circumstances due to making less mistakes. Map count is definitely a problem, made worse by the frame rate issue many are experiencing on a few maps meaning no one votes for those maps so playing on one map 99% of the time does get very old, read an interview on reddit with one of the devs where he said a new map for each mode and a new mode is very close and that they are working on the frame rate issues, if they can get both done soon I feel 3 maps per mode is ok. I'll probably pick up overwatch at some point, but in no rush right now.

And i agree, more complex characters should be more powerful, but degrade based on other factors. Simple should be fun, and able to hold their own. But ultimately its got to have a curve based on the characters.
NokiX Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 Anybody playing overwatch now it's released? I've just got it but I've got nobody to play with so I keep losing games since my team never communicates >.>
ZeroHour Posted May 28, 2016 Posted May 28, 2016 I have it. Its good but voice will be used much more when ranked turns on.
