Dead on arrival?
LawBreakers
I have this game on Steam, won it on a contest or something, but never played it.
Is it any good?
Probably. Really needed more zero g areas to fight in. Probably gonna have like 1k dedicated players
Wait, this is CliffyB's game?
I didn't know it was even released
Lawbreakers is a shit name and the game clearly flew under the radar, I was actually looking forward to it
why cant westerners make attractive women
>disappointing launch
>massive losses within a few months
>F2P in around a year
Why don't you have something to remind you of upcoming games besides Sup Forums?
Precisely this.
Very few will play, but plenty of people will directly overlook it while claiming that arena shooters are dead.
I played it during the beta.
Dropped it faster than anything I've signed up for the beta for.
It was just boring and repetitive.
And the mobility system wasn't nearly as neat as they made it out to be.
It was like BRINK again.
>Dead on arrival?
yep it's pretty much battleborn 2.0
I just checked, Steam says it launches on August 8.
They keep making games that nobody wants, I can't believe they don't spend a few thousand dollars on god damn focus groups to see what the market is trending for.
>Hur we want more shooters with generic ugly characters, but with some new gimmick, and make it AAA $60 with only multiplayer plz. Also cut some cool content so you can sell it as DLC later down the road.
Yeah fuck that, they get what they deserve.
>can't believe they don't spend a few thousand dollars on god damn focus groups to see what the market is trending for.
Focus groups are the reason we get shit like Thi4f and endless COD clones you nigger.
>focus groups
they usually fuck things up even more
see ghost in the shell movie
To be fair the average Korean woman isn't very attractive. I don't think the average idol is interested in flying up into the air and being an easy target.
because they do their styles a bbit more realistic for the most part. You do have good looking female characters in some series like the Mass Effect trilogy or Uncharted, but they are few and far between because they aren't designed like anime tiddy monsters from those weeaboo trash games that everyone ogles over. Also, most western games don't have female leads.
They pretty much focused tested the games for 2 years or so, mostly through closed beta. And it's 30 dollars with no plans for dlc (expect skins)
I like the law vs breakers thing, but the game is just
okay.
this game tries so hard to be cool and edgy that its just painful
>twitch shooter
>on console
about as good an idea as charging $30 for a F2P game.
Its pretty good.
Many people (mostly kids) will compare this to overwatch, though its closer to Unreal Tournament. If you like real Arena Shooters, then you'll likely enjoy this.
girl in OPs pic look more attractive than average Korean girl tho
the way they kept shittalking overwatch is reminiscent to that of battleborn
hubris
I don't get why people make the comparison. Overwatch is closer to TF2 than Lawbreakers And lawbreakers is closer to UT.
it looks alright. looking forward to trying it out in the next beta on the 30th
>this game tries so hard to be cool and edgy that its just painful
i wonder why
It sold 300,000 copies on steam already from preorders. If its good I think it will stick for a while.
I want her to nibble on the remains of my prolapsed anus as she removes her fourteen inch rifle from my rectum.
Then she'll look up at me, my legs spread on the couch in missionary, and tell me Cliffy B hired her to do it.
300k is nothing for a mp only shooter
what influence did focus groups have on ghost in the shell?
Thats wrong.
>That anatomy'
What the fuck.
not really, 300k is nothing to keep mp only shooter popular because most mp only shooters are f2p
so it will probably not "stick for a while"
>WE WANT TO HAVE D.VA/AHRI/A CUTE ASIAN GIRL IN OUR GAME SO FUCKING BAD
can anyone explain how the the classes work? Is it 2 different characters for each team but they play the same?
Don't know who this game is for
Overwatch: Normies/Casuals
Paladins: Poor people
Quake Champions: "Hardcore" gamers
I guess this is in the same category of Battleborn. Shitty moba fps nobody plays.
Retarded
Not a moba you retard
i think you lost your argument there user
game basically tries to be overwatch, but less skills/abilities and more shooting + verticality
>'There's the person who's like, 'Oh that character's kind of funny or cute. I like them,' and then there's the 'Did you know that Feng is the principal scientist for Shirocorp and that's why he's so cocky. He experimented on himself and that's why he has the robotic jaw and the prosthetic arm!' And you're like, 'Jeez, dude, calm down with the nerd shit!' You want that kind of stuff, right?'
autistic
Sorry, "hero shooter".
FPS with moba like abilities. Different heroes with abilities instead of a small pool of classes with large pool of weapons
This game doesn't have any marketing whatsoever. I heard of it like once when I was searching for new games on my own and then I completely forgot it exists until this thread.
>game basically tries to be overwatch, but less skills/abilities and more shooting + verticality
That sounds like a good thing, I play FPS for shooting and verticality, not for "skills/abilities/press Q to win"
if the only gimmick this game has is 0 gravity crap in some maps, be sure OW is going to release some 0g maps as well, they won't let this game even breath for a second, they're gonna kill it while it's still a fetus. they're ruthless.
that's what quake champions is
see This is basically only achievable through plastic surgery for most Koreans.
Apparently at first the movie was closer to the original 1995 anime but the first viewers thought it was too slow and needs more action to be successful
A casual poopfest with game changing abilties?
Your argument was retarded
>CliffyB's only claim to fame is stealing Kill.Switch's gameplay 1:1
>turns out he's a talentless hack
really makes you think
>needs more action
wut
GitS 95 is literally 50%-70% action scenes, how did they decide that it needed more?
>people want to see Lawbreakers fail because it doesnt have any waifu characters
How pathetic can you be?
You know NOTHING on market focus and sound EXACTLY like a generic game industry corporate suit on his "quest for million dollar franchises"
>>CliffyB's only claim to fame is stealing Kill.Switch's gameplay 1:1
You might be retarded
wanna read something retarded? see
Yeah it needed 5 billion preorders to survive
Champions is also F2P so I guess thats poor people as well.
You are a moron.
Doesn't Lawbreakers have double jumps, rocket jumping, grapple hooks and shit like that? I see characters practically flying around in gameplay videos.
BRINK fucked up because only the Light Bodytype was the only one that could do any of the very limited parkour and the maps had almost jack shit for players to actually use the parkour on.
That will teach them to spam shitty ads.
Fuck them.
I wonder how many of them constantly say that they long for the days of arena shooters just so they can fit in with the "hardcore" crowd
>>CliffyB's only claim to fame is stealing Kill.Switch's gameplay 1:1
Maybe if you are under 18 you would think that. His real claim to fame was Jazz Jackrabbit and Unreal
>double jumps, rocket jumping, grapple hooks and shit like that
Those abilities are tied to specific characters.
Also the flight was somewhat "floaty", it might work on consoles but it's a deathtrap for PC.
stop samefagging user
this game will die in a week, if i were you i'd refund it now
>It sold 300,000 copies on steam already from preorders
did it really? steamspy says it has 20000 and there's a grand total of 30 people playing it right now (but maybe the beta isn't open to everyone I dunno)
I think you lost your argument there user
i am banned
Idiot
It looked pretty fun. Hopefully they have a free weekend or something so I can try it out.
...
There is no beta running right now. Those 30 people are probably employees/testers
wait does it suck
I really wanted it to be good
I still wont be able to get it until I've saved up for a new pc tho
Which is half the reason it's going to fail, no pixar-tier characters with super strong and distinct personalities and character design. The other half is that, in order to have Overwatch level of success and not while still charging a reasonable fee(~30 bucks), you need to cater to the casuals first and foremost. You can have a hardcore mode but it needs to be totally separate from the main game modes.
>giving Cliffy Bazinga money
>2017
Don't do this.
Nice selfie, but what does it have to do with anything
steamspy.com
>Owners: 400,814
And this is on pc alone. We dont know console preorders but people are clearly interested. Unless the game is shit at launch and everyone drops it like Battleborn.
i'm roleplaying you user
Beta doesnt open again until next week.
It's still a month and a half away from launch, and the only evidence of it sucking is that CliffyB spent the last decade up to his neck in Gears of War and that it's got a PS4 version most likely designed around attracting casuals.
Would people who have it in their steam library from the beta show up as an owner?
was the beta free? that probably messed up the stats
I think it's that number because of the recent betas.
After watching this i think i'll be giving this game a try. Cliffy really knows his shit.
wait this already released?
as said previously, its BRINK all over again
kinda sucks that multiplayer games HAVE to be made by a (credible) AAA dev to be successful, or a really niche genre that does a lot of things right and has an autistic fanbase (see EVE online)
unreal 3 would like to have a word with you user
Fuck the casuals, people need to figure things out on their own instead of their abilities handholding them. You cater to the casuals by simplifying everything and you end up with garbage like SFV.
Half the time Sup Forums bitches about casuals taking over but then the other half they dont want to support good games because "oh, no casuals will buy it so its DOA".
Oh I thought there was like a beta out or something
And yeah I have a ps4 but there's no way I'd get an arena shooter on it, I kinda wish they just focused on a pc version like quake champions
also how's dat game
It's $30
He is the only developer I have seen who shit on the unity engine in a pretty straightforward way.
Pretty much. B2p was a terrible move to make especially under nexon na management, meaning microtransactions. The extremely lengthy early access development has, just like every other way game, soured perception based on its earliest incarnation. The game will never recover from people shitting on its alpha. I love it but I've started weening off it. I dont want to get caught up in a dead game again like i did with awesomenauts.
>GitS 95 is literally 50%-70% action scenes
Well those were pretty slow action scenes by the movie standards.
I wanna see it fail because of stupid shit like what the guy on the right is doing.
Too many objective-based FPSs out at the moment.
Most people are pretty content with overwatch and aren't really interested in Paladins, Gigantic, Dirty Bomb, Battleborne, etc.
Reminder that Battleborn had 3.5 million people who played the game. And look how many players are still playing it.
>watch all the E3 interviews with him
>he's 100% right
>but he only has Gears of War to go on
Maybe Cliffy learned something though, I signed up for the upcoming beta so we'll see how it goes.
But are those abilities on a one minute cooldown like most shitty Hero games, or are they core abilities that are an intrinsic part of your loadout that you're constantly using?
I got mine right here
>It's $30
i don't understand this argument. video game characters are usually exceptional in a lot of ways
Why does he head look photoshopped in?
