Technical evaluation of Battleborn completed.
Are there others testing this out? I'm still getting it in. To anyone interested, check out https://rsvp.battleborn.com/ if you haven't heard of Battleborn or if you think it's a remake of Overwatch; don't worry about the trailer—this game is coming soon regardless. It was developed by the team behind Borderlands, so I bet they put their own twist on it, keeping that signature humor and flair. Edit: just finished downloading, and it played a few matches. I tried one cooperative story mode. The matchmaking was slow, lots of players disconnecting, making it hard to form a proper team. Since it's a co-op story mode, I'll give it another shot in Versus later. First thoughts (Coop Story): The system is too slow, many players drop off, and even with a full squad it doesn't launch. Communication is tough—voice calls are necessary because the game moves fast. Typing isn't enough. For instance, I was the only one with a mic, so we just kept moving without coordination, shooting anything that came up. It's like in MOBA games, but you need skill and practice to master each character. This game is even more demanding; the quick pace means picking up upgrades or skills can be risky. I suspect my teammates were just shooting randomly, focusing on getting anything. I'll try Versus mode later. Just tested Versus now, and it ended up being another story mode without us realizing. What a mess!
