Stop this fucking meme, dude. Paladins is vastly different from Overwatch and everyone who says this has never really played the game and had an objective comparison.

there you go, a successful tf2 clone
>>
>>387966773

It was the first free overwatch clone. Now, the market is full.

> Want to play a paid hero shooter
Buy overwatch.

> want to play a free hero shooter
Play paladins.

Every other hero shooter is now doomed to fail.

It's actually a pretty good game.
It's better than overwatch in some regards.
>>
>>387966773
Overfags endlessly crying about how Paladins "ripped off their game".

Who knew? Turns out that if you constantly parrot how a free game is a clone of a really hot pair property, people flock to it.

It is pretty successful. Thier jootube has over a million subs and they have at least 2 million players just on the consolepleb version alone. They treat the console version like a side thing and it still has a lot players.

Gigantic system requirements are too high for a F2P game
Overwatch runs at 90+ fps yet I can't even start Gigantic because my gpu doesnt support DX11.1 (only DX11). Its stupid
>>
>>387969746
I felt bad for Lawbreakers but it started off even worse than Gigantic on Steam (Gigantic capped at 8000). So I didn't want to get attached, especially when it was 30 to get in with no f2p option (Gigantic did either f2p or 30 flat rate for all characters)

>>387969798

It was in alpha and the game looked and played like shit.

I've had the same problem but just sorta picked up a feeling for it after awhile. So no real solution I believe.

I had the same problem with Overwatch and Paladins personally though

>>387970002
Gigantic fans became such cancer after they decided to go to /vg/. For what purpose you faggot?
>>
>>387966773
After TF2 died Overwatch filled the void and grabbed almost all of its players (especially comp pros). Paladins is the first Overwatch clone so it gets the biggest marketshare and now all other clones are dead in the water.

It's similar to the DotA situation where LoL came in and took the world by storm. Except Paladins hasn't surpassed OW yet.

Because unlike Overwatch it's actually fun to play. Paladins, for all of its faults, is honestly a better thought out game and is able to stand on its own merits as a fun experience, and without the fucking suffocating marketing that Blizzard is known for.

The map design is where it won me, they are way more open instead of OWs shitty choke points, a lot of the past feels more balanced to along with the ability for multiple builds, it also helps that its updated a lot and anything broken usually gets taken down fast, unlike say fucking Ana in OW who remained untouched for close to a year.

Doomed to fail, if the game lasts long enough for them to patch out those issues, then it might survive. It definitely deserves it, it's fun as hell. The community will stay until Motiga abandons it, at the very least.

OW has much higher
>>
>>387968050
Lol wat, do you even see what you typed?
>>
>>387977307
Most healers in Paladins are very offensive oriented, they have CCs, decent damage and you can contribute to the fight and even fight off flankers if you know what you are doing, the snake dude is one of the best, his heal works over time so instead of holding a button while following a person around he can participate in the battle directly while waiting for it to come off CD.
>>
>>387978238
Paladins has larger hitboxes though there are few to no bullshit one-shot skills and everyone has a movement ability. I'd say about the same.

MOBAs need to be free. Theres so much opportunity for monetization, and such a steep learning curve, that it doesn't work as a single purchase. HiRez is already trying to exploit this by releasing a new champion every month (presumably they are intending to have 1-200 different champions) which could potentially be both more profitable than Blizzard's strategy, and create a more enduring game due the constant changes in the meta.
>>
>>387978306
>>387978404
If you're talking about mechanical skills than they are about the same. But if you are talking about loadout and what items to buy, there is a big gap between the top and casual.

Most of the time people copy the top player's deck and still get destroyed because they don't buy the item to counter CC, shields or healing
>>
I don't like Overwatch's hero changing when you die meta.

I prefer Paladins because champions stay the same during all the fight, so you have to think about your strategy against them.
The card/items meta also adds some depth, and you have to pick whichever fits the situation better.
>>
>>387978504
Hi-Rez's plan is to bank as much as possible as long as it's hot then ditch it for the next flavour-of-the-month genre.

It was a very different in alpha and closed beta stages.

BUT after they saw how successful Overwatch was they made many changes that were strongly influenced by Overwatch or just straight up stolen from Overwatch (eg smaller maps, some terminology, "play of the game")

It offered itself as a plan B rather than directly compete. It didn't try to charge money and claim "we're totally different guys" like consumers give a fuck about nuance. Since it's free people can have bought Overwatch and still try Paladins since they don't have to fork up money they already spent on a hero shooter and sometimes they enjoy it and stay.

Flat out lie. Every Casual server I go into has 24 people playing the game. The vast majority of Community servers i go into have people playing the game and shooting at each other. """"""""RPers""""""""" are so fucking rare that I see them less often than I get hat drops.

>>1/3 are idle servers to farm items and achievements
Except this is a lie?
Community servers only make up 50% of the playerbase (the other 50% is Casual where there is no such thing as a "idle server", and idle/achievement servers don't make up even 1/3 of that 50%, and even in those servers, people still fight and shoot each other.

Don't fucking lie, nigger.

This. Paladins started off a bit different, but its long since diverged from that original concept and copied heavily from OW in some areas. Its not a full 1:1 copy, but to say they didn't change many aspects to imitate things OW did is a bit naive.
>>
>>387980549
sure, blizzard managed to copy every single asset and "copy" them in mere days and yet make far better looking and feeling game.
Don't get me wrong, I like both games but it's clear that paladins feels like the bootleg overwatch. I expected more from hi-rez because I love Smite, its art direction and quality, also Tribes.

I can't remember the full list of changes, but basically when OW came out, they started changing various things to be more in line with it. One of the more notable things was adding a Play of the Game analog to matches.

It's not exactly a good thing if you make it OP or shit at the start and then "fix it" for good dev points, I'd rather have less more fleshed out characters with different playstyles than a fuckload of them that I lose count after a while
>>
Speaking as somebody who actively plays and enjoys titanfall 2, I think that paladins' hud is really bad. Why does everything that a hero can do given its own icon along the bottom? I don't need a constant reminder that Viktor can scope in and which button to do it with. When you jump, why do most abilities need to get that red "can't use this now" filter over them? The constant status effect icons are irritating, not to mention that status effects in an fps are fucking stupid. The ult charger is also retarded since its just a number with no other visual indication of charge. There's also nothing saying its a percentage, so when I first picked up the game I had no idea if it was supposed to be charging up or just a long cooldown. The viewmodels are also fucking huge.
While overwatch's gameplay is also shit tier, it has a far better hud. It might just be because there are fewer heroes coming out slower, but identifying abilities is relatively easy while in paladins I never have an idea of what the fuck any of the particle effects mean and if they're friendly or not.

If 90% of abilities have them it's only right that the 5% without cooldown adheres to the same thing, for consistency.

>Why does everything that a hero can do given its own icon along the bottom
OW does this too, you know.
>When you jump, why do most abilities need to get that red "can't use this now" filter over them?
Because some abilities can't be use while in air.

I sucked it up and learned the new characters after having quit for virtually 4-5 months but I didn't enjoy the process at all. I enjoyed the game in Oct/Nov 2016 more, though I hear from pros that the game has gotten a ton of bug fixes and rebalances since that time that makes high-level play more fun and dynamic.
