>shilling a dead overwatch clone

Who the fuck thought this was a good idea?

Is the beta worth my time? Is it fun?

Not OP, I like it.

It's fun and to me better than Overwatch but be careful if you say that you get scolded

>get 60 feet away from the bomb
>still die

great game

Do people still think Skye is op? I play McCree/Reaper a lot and 2 shot that bitch super quick.

>I'm such a poor faggot that I can't even afford Overwatch: The Game

Paladins is the chinese knockoff to end chinese knockoffs, especially because it comes from the dudes who made smite.

Can you tell me how it's a clone?

yes

That's D.VA though.

we're talking about the ult moron

nah I can't
youtube.com/watch?v=J2gBkqP4V9Y

And?

The game is fun, play a few games with friends

>mfw overwatch fans are complaining that a game is derivative

Cool, overlooking heroes look and just saying they look like those others.

Now, can you tell me how it's a clone. Because, we all seen this video and it's literally just "this person look like this other person!"

>it's even complaining about a balance issue
>still get called a shill

What the fuck is wrong with Cred Forums?

>people complaining about Skye after patch ~11

lol

The game is fun, but it has glaring balance issues. I mean, Skye isn't broken, but her ult is fucking retarded. She dies in a couple of hits though.

op here

fuck you

Sure, but the game is still in beta. I'm sure they will fix most issues.

Her ult is dumb, but otherwise she's just really obnoxious.

Games with a Skye on the enemy team basically go like this
>Team doing objective
>Skye appears and gibs somebody
>Team turns around and either kills her or sends her running at critical hp
>Repeat all match until your team isn't able to properly jump on her and she kills half your team herself
>Staying too close to your team lets her drop her shitty ult and kill everyone
>Not staying close to your team lets her start jumping on people and deleting them with impunity

Jesus I just fucking said I couldn't, are you retarded?

>adding emulators to your steam library
>just so your steam """"friends"""" will know what you are doing at all times

kill yourself

It's ten times better than Overwatch

So, can someone give me a legit argument why I shouldn't play Paladins instead of Overwatch? The only argument I've against it is that it's a clone, but why would that be a bad thing? It's free. Overwatch is $60. If I can get the same experience without paying, why shouldn't I go for it?

10 * 0 = 0

>make good tribes sequel

who thought this was a good idea

You said it while linking a video that was "clone!". So you clearly though that this video was all that was needed.

Paladins is if you thought OW was too hard to aim and kill dudes with guns and it needed more MOBA elements

You are the worst kind of autist.

exactly

they're just made they had to pay $60 for a shit game when they could have got it for free

The most ironic thing is that Blizzard, or more likely a marketing firm on their behalf, actually shills on this shitty board, yet those shills are the quickest to claim legitimate threads are just shill threads.

>15 Overwatch threads a day, no one cries shill

>1 Battleborn thread or 1 Paladin thread, SHIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLL.

And you just proved to him that it worked.

You said "I cant " while posting the video. If you posted the video, cool. If you just said, "I cant" cool.

You did both, so the "I cant" was clearly sarcastic.

>I sure like Overwatch
>should I go into the Overwatch thread and enjoy talking about the game?
>or should I go into another game's thread and shit it up with Overwatch shilling?

Seriously considering kys Overcucks.

I like Overwatch. I did not play Paladins yet, but I will play it and like it.

I would probably like Battleborn too.

I loved Monday Night Combat too.

And TF2.

Blizzard is a cancer. When you remove that cancer the game becomes 100% better.

Blizzard is great at making great casual games.

>my friend literally refuses to play Overwatch with me because I turned him down last night in order to give Paladins a try

Why are Overbitches so over-dramatic?

buyer's remorse

Except they aren't. Couldn't even make a casual MOBA.

HiRez is literally everything wrong with development companies today. Blizzard is fucking God compared to them. If you play Paladins or Smite, seriously just kill yourself. Thanks.

>LoL gets popular
>Hi-Rez makes a shitty LoL knockoff
>LoL starts losing the spotlight to Overwatch
>Hi-Rez makes a shitty Overwatch knockoff

>Every game has record breaking sales

One, Smite is nothing like LoL. Two, Paladins has been in development as long if not longer than Blunderwatch.

>Every game has record breaking sales
>Games are still dead within a month

Hi-Rez has been in high shilling gear since the games launch on Steam.

They keep talking about the 3 generic """"waifus"""" and use it as bait.

Cassie is cute, Ill give you that, but I will never install or play this game ever. And not because its a "clone".

Rip Tribes.

HOTS is great for casuals. I have a ton of fun with it.

This. Ever since they raped us consumers by abandoning Tribes, HiRez should literally be fucking wiped from the face of the Earth. They can't be allowed to toy with our emotions, and then abandon us again. Do NOT play Smite or Paladins. Please, I beg you.

HiRez is bad because they didnt support Tribes Ascent, which nobody wanted to play?

Smite and LoL are already made for casuals and are far better games.

LoL is annoying to play for casuals because you dont have equal footing until you grind up your skills, which is stupid.

Smite is a third person moba.

I think Smite is fun. It doesn't take itself serious like Dota2 and LoL, and it offers alternate modes for people who don't want to sit in a half-hour game.

>dead

>heartstone and ow are in top5 on twitch
>dead
Sure thing.

>Smite is a third person moba.
They're all third person.

>smite is nothing like LoL

No. Third person is over the shoulder. Most mobas are top down, which is "god view" style.
Different styles.

In Lol, abilities are auto aimed and always hit. In SMITE, you actually have to aim most of your abilities. That alone makes it feel different enough to like one and dislike the other.

Lern2Perspective

There's only 1st person and 3rd person. If it's not one it's the other, dumbass. The change of view doesn't change that fact. LoL is simply bird-eye third person.

>One, Smite is nothing like LoL.
It's literally LoL with the camera panned down.
Aside from the camera (which adds very little considering assfaggots are 90% range play, character building, and knowing when to go in and when not to and 10% mechanics) it's the most direct LoL clone on the market by a huge margin.

>argument out the window
>better insult some random shit

Are you retarded user? You sound pretty retarded to me.

>In Lol, abilities are auto aimed and always hit.

I havent played LoL in a few years, did they get rid of characters like ezreal and anivia?

also does having a different way to aim skills make the game totally different? the gameplay and objectives are still the same

smite plays nothing like league you nunce

...

paladins is fucking shite
its like a terribly arcadey overwatch where everyone dies in 2 hits from anyone.

False.
First Person : I see
Second Person : You see
Third Person : He see

Also, Top down and Third person are NOT the same thing. Totally different. Third person is grounded. You can only see yourself from the perspective of somebody behind you, a floating camera.

Top down allow you to see multiple angles, over walls and so on.

>gets assblasted
>better call them a retard

Ok, kid, you can go back to Overwatch now.

>Same exact stats, same exact character building system, same exact general stat and scale curves across the match, 80% of the same items and abilities
>BUT THE CAMERA IS LOWER SO IT'S A TOTALLY DIFFERENT GAME

If you played the game, you'd see immediately how it's different from Overwatch and why people could POSSIBLY enjoy it Overwatch. For me, it's the horses especially. They speed the match up so much.

I also like how it has more of an old-school shooter kind of feel. Playing Skye especially gives me that feeling.

Also, we need more Paladins webms.

By your own definitions in that post, top-down is third person.
How stupid can you get?

>main game mode is 5vs5
>character types are carry, support, tank
>main map is 3 lanes with jungle between them
>objective is to push lanes with your creeps to destroy base
>killing enemies and creeps gives you gold to buy and upgrade items at base
>characters gain XP and level up to upgrade one of thier 4 spells, one of which is not availible until a certain level

honestly, aside from how you aim, how are they different?

>write retarded post
>LOL U MAD MUST BE AN OVERWATCH PLAYER LOLOLOL

You're wrong about lol, wrong about me, so you are actually retarded.

>I also like how it has more of an old-school shooter kind of feel.
>the horses especially. They speed the match up so much.


WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK AM I READING

How is he wrong? You never gave an argument. Do you not auto-aim your abilities in LoL?

>posting anime

Just kys my man, you got roasted.

No. Top down is not third person. That's a different style. It's not a person. You dont see the world through the eye of a third person, it's just a top down view.

But hey, if you wanna stay ignorant, cool.

In that case, Dota2 and HotS are LoL clones too! Fucking retard.

yes you dont, many abilities in LoL require you to aim them yourself

not even that, but there are abilities in smite that are auto aimed for you

are they not? how can you honestly say all those games are not extremely similar?

Don't make fun of the retarded.

Gears of war must play the same as starcraft by your logic.

Most champion abilities has to be aimed.

oh no, you got me!

>wanted to actually discuss Paladins since I'm having fun with it
>thread is filled with HiRez drones and Blizzard Defense Force

True. Wolfenstein 3D is a Doom clone as well. Can't believe people get mad when you call it out.

>For me, it's the horses especially. They speed the match up so much.
>I also like how it has more of an old-school shooter kind of feel. Playing Skye especially gives me that feeling.
>I also
>Also
>As in, in addition

Apparently not reading enough

Third person means you're looking at your character instead of through his eyes. Top down is third person. You're a fucking retard.

What you're looking for is "over the shoulder."
Over the shoulder and bird's eye are different things, but they're both third person.
It's squares and rectangles. It's not fucking hard.

if gears of war shared starcraft's stat system, character building system, and items/abilities then yes they would be exactly the same

but I dont honestly know how you could claim that to be the case

Third person is seeing through HIS eyes , yes. It means that it's over the shoulder, or at character level. You cant look elsewhere on the map, you cant teleport your camera around, you cant click on other stuff to see their point of view.

Third person is YOU are seen through the eyes of another character at character level.

Top down is completely different camera style wise and is not attached to your character in most games.

what 'old school' shooter has mounts?

>Gears of war must play the same as starcraft by your logic.
Really? Because Starcraft and GOW don't even remotely share a single one of those things.
Are you just trying to make yourself look like a retard or are you actually this dense?

>Played Paladins between Overwatch's beta and full release
>The game is a piece of shit
>Write it off as being total shit
>Game comes to Steam and everyone is playing it
>Shitpost them into oblivion
>Read up on the wiki for laughs
>Apparently they changed most of the characters so they're less shit and got rid of worst girl Ying
>Game doesn't sound nearly as bad now

I'm sorry.

what game character has his eyes behind his shoulder?

>still dodging the "in addition"
He likes how the "gun feel" looks like old shooters AND how the horses speed shit up by not having you to walk two miles to where the action is happening

Third person. He. You see through the eyes of somebody else. In this case the camera is looking at you at character level.

That's important.

>Third person is YOU are seen through the eyes of another character at character level.
That is not what "third person" means.
By this logic, no game is third person because I can't think of a single game where I'm just staring at my character's back from ground level. If the camera is at all up in the air or can be rotated and tilted around, it's not third person by your definition.

I remember the beta being awfully boring last time I played it.

But you are wrong. Here, have a picture as an example of how fucking dumb you are.

top is 3rd person, bottom is over the shoulder

>both games controls completely different
>stats are the same so games are the same
You should stop posting user.

Not, game is clunky and monotonous. It's even worse than Overwatch and TF2 and the only reason people are paying it any sort of attention is Valve trying to push it hard against Overwatch via steam and the few big youtube names making videos going "Look at this trash! Look at it and laugh!" aka Dunkey

LoL has shitloads of skillshots

so no third person game exists aside from mario 64 (and maybe a few others)?

>One plays as RTS, other as 3rd person shooter
Yup. Same games.

SC2 Dude is doing nothing, just repeating commands like a aspie, waste of tendons.

>top is 3rd person
What about when I tilt the stick upwards and the "third person" I'm seeing my character through magically lifts up into the air?

The camera float around you, but does not leave you. Top down allow the camera to leave you. You are the anchor of the camera. In top down games, your character can be all the way on the other side of the map, and you look at something else while your character do stuff elsewhere.

Third person limit your view to around you.

STOP DISCUSSING WHAT A THIRD PERSON CAMERA IS OR NOT

Just discuss it, the crybabies will leave soon.

It's a view. No actual character has to actually exist for the view to exist. But Top down and Third person are extremely different in style and intend.

>In Lol, abilities are auto aimed and always hit
Have you ever even played LoL? The majority of abilities are skill shots and even the majority of insta cast abilities are being changed to be more skill shot orientated.

He's heating up his hand so he's up to speed when he need it. But yeah, he's doing nothing. SC2 players actually get operated because the game microtasking is so heavy that they hurt themselves.

>literal autism
Did you forget to take your meds again, user?

It's basically OW without the Blizz jewery. So it's better.

Are you seriously trying to tell me that Starcraft and Gears of War share a stat system, a character building system, stat and scale curves, and items and abilities, or are you just actually this bad at reading?

git gud

>you can buy chests with money
>some skins can only bought with money
>you have to buy new heroes
N-no blizz jewery guys!

So Diablo is third person to you but LoL isn't just because one has a camera lock option?

>16 dollars for everything upfront vs 40
>Being this much of a Blizzdrone

Diablo 3 is a top down with camera lock.
LoL is a top down without a camera lock.

Third person is at character level.

>oops I just got proven wrong and don't have a rebuttal, better call him an autist and close the thread and tell myself I won

But you just said being the anchor of the camera is the deciding factor for third person and being able to pan away is what defines top down in place of third person.
Can you make up your fucking mind?

Don't kid yourself, it's still bad

i am good i get huge kill streaks with a fucking support

Is he good?

No, i'm telling you that they have completely different control schemes and can't be the same. There is no point in discussing stats and progression systems.

What a blizzcuck I am indeed.

No I didnt. I said that third person is at character level and that most top down have no anchor on the character. Never said that all have no anchor.

Please, can you stop being ignorant, I'm trying to watch a guy open a Pokemon Base set booster box before going to sleep. Thanks.

>proven
Where? Autistic fits are not considered a proof of anything but autism.

No, they can't be the same BECAUSE everything underneath the control scheme is also different.
How stupid can you get?

>better than Overwatch
It's funny how the people that say that are the people that can't afford to pay the 40

The heroes have to be unlocked (any many of them have the same skills as ow heroes), and the maps are amazingly worst than ow.

>When released, muh tf2 clone
>Others use the same concept, muh overwatch clone

See, you just proven that LoL and Smite are different. Was it that hard?

Waiting for that rebuttal, any time you're ready

i literally don't understand why anyone would do this

Stop playing against bots

>Being expensive means a game is better

Waiting for a point to refute, any time you're ready.

Are you kidding me? This not the first time Hi Rez has blatantly stolen ideas from another popular game. Just because there are plenty of things different, it doesn't mean that the things that are a blatant clone don't exist. Ice Block was stolen straight from mei, Reinhardt's shield was blatantly stolen, Torb as an entire concept was stolen. This is coming from the guys that made 3rd person LoL and I happen to like Smite very much.

Don't shill.

>lalala I can't hear you I'm right because I say so
Meanwhile, the gameplay surrounding the camera and controls in Smite and LoL is still the same and you can't come up with anything to prove it wrong

Not as dead as stillborn though
Amirite guise?

>Ice Block was stolen straight from mei
And Mei stole Ymir's Ice Wall. Eye for an eye.

I dunno, tf2 cheap when first released and when bundled with others game and still cheaper than overwatch lol. More fun if you ask me

No, Ymir stole Anivia's ice wall.

>all heroes in overwatch are completely original do not steal.
Don't shill

>two games in a same genre use same game mechanics
oh noes! CoD is doom clone!

Ice Block is a WoW Ice Mage ability, which was from something else.
Reinhard Shield is similar sure, but saying that a shield hero is stealing? Come on.
Torb is just engineer from TF2, which come from TF1, which...

Come on. Dwarf building things is not "rare".

>People don't fucking know what third person is
If you are looking at your character, it is third person.

TF2 was also only 9 heroes without changing weapons. A lot more barebone.

Well that's kind of my point. A lot of this shit is derivative and there will be some overlap (see: ever MOBA having some sort of hookchain ability) between games and it takes more than a single ability to be a completely stolen concept.

The Reinhardt shield is probably the more obvious offender in that it even looks the same, but just one thing isn't always enough.

No.
You can see your character in Second Person too for example. Not a lot of second person games out there though.

Resident Evil 1 is a famous one.

>People actually shilling for Blizzard
What the fuck.

>two games in a same genre use same game mechanics
>oh noes! CoD is doom clone!
The level of differences between CoD and Doom would be comparable to LoL and Dota. Same broad, general mechanics, but built and implemented in their own way from the ground up to create their own gameplay and pacing surrounding them. LoL and Smite don't have that. Like I clearly explained to you in my first fucking post, all the extreme specific implementations are identical instead of the general mechanics and that's where the difference lies.

If seriously you think the similarities between CoD and Doom are comparable to two games having the exact same specific mechanics and number scales on everything and a ton of the exact same individual highly specific stat boost items, I don't even have words for how retarded you are.

>If you are looking at your character, it is third person.

I played both betas, and put much more time into Paladins.
Overwatch is complete shit, and I wouldn't play it even if it were F2P.

Third person is the camera still being locked onto your character, but from a third-person viewpoint.

I get what this guy is trying to say, but i disagree.

It is a cash-in attempt on overwatch. It is not an honest attempt to make a class based shooter.
The timing and the design choices reek of mobile-industry style business models where you compete for the second place to make money off the scraps.

More than Half the development budget will be marketing. It will be unfinished, lack features, and it will recieve the bare minimum profitable support from the developer.

They are already planning to leave its playerbase stranded within a few years, if that.

Dont support this practice.

What specific mechanics? Mages use one stat and fighters another? Wow, that's a fucking crime right here.

Show me 1:1 stolen hero, item or math behind stats. Otherwise you just spouting shit here.

>V-Valve doesn't care about Overwatch g-guys!

Easily the worst character in the game. I was going to call him the Bastion of the game, but at least Bastion can stomp newbies. Buck just gets stomped by everyone.

Fun Fact: His ultimate doesn't even fucking work. It says in the description that it restores his ammo, but if you use it with one bullet left in your shotgun you're screwed.

I wanted to like Paladins, but it has the same hero balancing issues as Overwatch. You have the stealth girl who's basically a must pick, you have the pistol dude who's pre-nerf Mccree all over again, you have a must pick tank with shield as Fernando, and the axe throwing healer with an AoE healer.

Fuck that axe throwing healer. He is just constantly chucking those axes across the map for massive damage.

Do you guys really spend time playing cheap knock-offs?
I envy you, I wish I had that much free time.

That's a nice skin my man. What's it called?

I don't see how this means anything at all. TF2's had dozens of shit like this before OW even existed. I remember they even did a promo item for AWESOMENAUTS, a tiny indie game.

the shilling is obvious

They wouldn't approve almost anything, user. When Valve puts one of their items in your game, it's because they want to boost its exposure. It means they support the game. When you look at how copy paste the game is and how it won't last even half a year, then it's really easy to see what Valve are attempting to do.

Its made by hi-rez.

The guys that make a game, add pay2win shit, then drop their game to follow some other fad game and leave everything else to die.

That's only happened with Tribes though. SMITE's been pretty clear of that.

I'm lvling characters to 4 to get access to ranked, and it really pains me that I have to play all that trash when there's Ruckus available to play. The most painful part is when some dumb idiot picks it and just gets killed over and over again without getting any kills.

I love Viktor. He's basically what I hoped Soldier 76 would be. Feels like classic cowadooty.

At least she isn't Battleborne ugly.

Pretty neat. Thinking of unlocking the bow bitch or not-reaper first.

In what way? Darksiders was a popular target for taking a lot of elements from other games, but it was still pretty fun regardless. Tons of games do this, and tons of games are still really good whether or not they "stole" ideas from somewhere. This is how creative works have been done for a while. Warcraft was a total, shameless ripoff of Warhammer for example.

Paladins has a designated furry bait champion.
Does overwatch have a furry character?
Well better luck next time then.

this, its like legend of zelda fans crying about every "zelda clone", when zelda itself stole fuck tons of shit from falcoms ys series and adventure on the atari

I haven't played it since like January, is it still getting regular new gods?

well the chicks are hot so I'm down

>zsnes

Yeah, it's gotten a handful of gods recently. Latest one was Izanami, who was added about a week or 2 ago. Now they're doing the Odyssey 2017 stuff. Then before Izanami was Erlang Shen, then Susano, then I think Jing Wei.

>Paladins has a designated furry bait champion.
Which one? I haven't tried the game yet.

Pip, yellow fucker straight outta wildstar.

>forgetting fafnir and terra
>user never plays guardian

Oh yeah. So there's:
Izanami
Terra
(Freya remodel)
Erlang Shen
Susano
Jing Wei

And then I think that's it for 2016.

Id rather play Overwatch but its like 80 fucking dollars where I live, and a G2A key is the equivalent of 40 dollars, which I dont think is exactly worth it either
I rather stick with the free one for now. Its not half bad.

Hmm
Not that offensive, a little furbait-ier than say, Ratchet, but doesn't really detract from the game.
I don't really want to fuck it either though, so on the other hand no pandering points

lol

Did you ever stop to consider that there may be multiple perspectives for third person games?

...

the point's so that everyone can travel from spawn quickly, butonce they get off, they have their individual move-speed.

Didn't play before, but apparently you could have your mount any time before this patch. Sounded retarded.

>guy with blue shield with close range weapon
>big/fat unit with a hook
>sniper with gun that also acts as an automatic + gadget
>short guy that plants sentry/turret
Don't care that they all copy each other, just wish the character archetypes were different. Why can't it ever be a slim chick throwing a hook, or someone that's not a dwarf that uses turrets?

I personally people are blowing the similarities out of proportion, and it's not like a chain grab, ice shield, or charge move is anything proprietary or unique. Lots of games have done it before Overwatch.
But Barak's design is straight up Torbjorn. Hi-Rez could have designed any character to build turrets and have a shotgun, but they're creatively bankrupt enough to just make a Swedish Dwarf do it. There's also someone who's just low-poly Reaper. You'd have to be blind not to see it.

Not the op, but man you're retarded.

while Gearbox succeeded in furfag bait.

The similarities is not just a random skill here and there, the whole skillset of some characters are literally copy and paste. Take Fernado vs Reinhardt for example. Both are tanks, both have a huge shield ability, both have a charge and long range melee attacks.

Ice shield is not just ice shield. She literally turns into a block of ice just like Mei. Her left click which is her only real damaging skill is similar to Mei's right click. Her ultimate is the exact same as Mei's as well.

And then you have Vicktor -> Soldier 79,
Drogoz - Pharah, Androxus - Mccree, Kinesa -> Widowmaker, etc. All these characters play the exact way, with skillsets that are almost the same.

so if the games are so similar why pay for overwatch when I can play paladins for free? legit question

Evie is nothing like Mei beyond the ice block. She doesn't even fulfill the same role.

Viktor is also very diferent from 76. Has ADS, has an actual grenade instead of a grenade launcher. Utimate is an air-strike instead of an aimbot, no heals whatsoever *but has the regen like everyone else).

I'd say Viktor is far more enjoyable than 76 as well, but that's subjective.

It'll be the same shit - you get reasonable ammount until you can afford 1 hero and then it'll become hell.

You feeling ok buddy?

You mean to say Viktor is actually copying stillborn instead of overmeme ?

no clue since i haven't played battleborn

how do I stop playing against bots? or does the game hide enemy names?

I'm queueing for casual and it's all enemies with generic names

Level five, takes a few games

I had fun playing Drogoz, even though he is pretty much just Pharah with a shock rifle combo and a lethal version of Reinhardt's charge as his ult.

Not sure if I'll stick with the game though; my friends still avidly play Overwatch and they wouldn't want to try out a free-to-play alternative regardless of quality. That said, playing Overwatch feels more and more like a chore to me lately, even with a full group of friends.

the guy throwing the hook isn't really at all like Roadhog, even from a design stand point. It's a fucking manlet turtle.

>start game up
>play a few rounds
>this feels like shit
>feedback on weapons and getting kills is shit
>the presentation is shit
>the character designs are really bland
>TTK was shortened, maps were shrunk to closer match OW and as a result you have mounts who's only purpose is to get you back into the fight quicker

The only design I like is Bomb King. He looks like a Skylander. The voice acting isn't really good, and they managed to get an announcer even more boring than OW's.

At least I enjoy playing the brain-dead bomb man

Jesus Christ the servers are having a fucking fit and this game is such a massive copy of overwatch they aren't even trying.

Dragon guy is so much like pharah that even the bar below him for his jet pack meter looks the same.

Sniper has the same charge function widow does and her gun is a machine gun when not scoped.

The turret builder guy looks exactly like torbjorn

Victor is soldier 76 with the same sprint animation

I did have fun playing Skye though, but I got to play one game against real people before the servers started spazzing out.

>Drogoz
K, that's fair
>Androxus
I don't remember in Overwatch when Mcree could fly around, flank with impunity and then use reaper's ult
>Kinesa
A sniper that charges up and an smg are the only thing they share in their kit, something numerous other games have.
>Spanish spic
A rectangular shield. The charge doesn't do damage and is used to get on top of someone or to get to the front of the team to shield, the play style is completely different
>Ice Bitch
She's more like tracer than she is Mei, her ult isn't even the same as Mei's, the visual effect may be very similar but it's more like Traver's ult than anything, the only thing they have in common is the block of ice shit

Common bro, there's more blatant shit in this game, you're missing the point and picking the wrong shit.

Better than shilling Overwatch. At least this shit is free.

Also somehow I forgot shitskin Reinhardt, self explanatory.

best ass

I dont give a shit about this shit fps which apparently pales in comparison to another shit fps, but I need to know more about this semen demon in OP's picture

But the game is what call them in good to main line genre. How may can you think with that way?

She thinks the wage gap is real

HiRez fucked up Tribes to be honest. It had a large initial gathering of players but they learned that HiRez changed the core functions of how Tribes works and tried to heavily monetize it, which is a huge turn off.

>the horses especially. They speed the match up so much.
what's wrong with this? one of overwatch's massive problems is having to slog back through the awful map design to the objective when you respawn.

I really hate this scoring system
>capture the point, push it 80% of the way to the win
>capture the point, push it 80% of the way to the win
>capture the point, push it 80% of the way to the win
>barely lose the point
>You lose

Haven't played any pvp yet, the gold gain for playing versus bots is too good.

I guess I cant complain too much because its free, but this is one of the most shallow games I have ever played

You just rush the point and mash your abilities to win. The ONLY thing that matters is that your side has a tank who has balls (which just consists of them spamming their block ability on the point) and the top four DPS characters.

Plus the characters are massively unbalanced. The soldier and that flaming lance guy are by far the best characters. If you have both you win, period. Never lost a single match out of 50 when we had both.

At the same time though I'm obliterating the other teams so hard its amusing. Iv been MVP in every single game except 2 where I didnt get flaming lance faggot or soldier.

>pick up edgelord aka reaper
>die die die
>receive quadra kill
who though that was a good ide for ultimate?

>pick yasuo
>ODADADADAYAAAA
>throws dragon arrow that walks inside walls
>get quadra kills
who the fuck on earth though that was a good idea for ultimate?
Yes.
it's only game i play atm
