CrowKnow Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Anyone playing this? It basically came out as the poor-man's Overwatch since it's f2p. Big things I've noticed so far in comparison to Overwatch is that every hero has a movement ability, the map design isn't nearly as choke-pointy as Overwatch (ಠ_ಠ Eichenwalde) and ults aren't as important with 1 kill being pretty normal with an offensive ult. The average skill in the game is crazy low which I guess makes it fun to pub stomp. There's usually at least 1-2 people per game who aren't capable of moving and shooting at the same time. There's some interesting ideas like bots taking over for you if you disconnect and letting you reconnect at any point which helps against rage quitting. There's also a lot of jank in the game like overtime not being obvious, or payload range, or contesting a point. Leaving you like "Oh I guess we just lost?". Which is kinda weird cause I fee like TF2 already solved these problems. Loud announcer shouting OVERTIME, MISSION ENDS IN 10 SECONDS, 5,4,3,2,1..., payload carts having a glowing trail to show range or Overwatch with the BEEP BEEP BEEP contesting noise. I'm enjoying the game on a casual level so far... kinda like pubbing in TF2. I don't have that much faith in the devs though (Hi-Rez) since they dropped the ball on Tribes.

Mal Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 Hi-Rez? They can make fundamentally good games (Tribes was actually decent once) but this will go P2W eventually or something will turn to shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
