Anyone here play Paladins? If so what are your thoughts on the game? I quite like it so far. F2P is always a bonus <3
>>155001496
I think it's pretty fun.
It does feel a bit like a poor man's Overwatch but eh, it's free and I like some of the character designs(bring Ying back!).
No hero switching does make it a bit hard if you start with a team full of flankers or damagers though.
>>155001496
I actually quite like it, at first I thought it was just F2P Overwatch, but it's kind of fun.The player base is kind of small but it's not Stillborn levels of player base.It also has a few waifus so I'm not complaining.
With the recent skin giveaways and steam release, the game will get more popular, hopefully.
>>155001496
Like it more than memewatch t b h
>>155002858
It is somewhat of a F2P Overwatch but it does have its own unique twist on stuff so I don't mind.
Overwatch fanbois tend to forgot that their game was also called a TF2 clone before.
Who was the retard at Lowrez that suggested to make the default voice commands to use the announcer? How will I spam Evie's "GG" and "Woohoo" at the end of the match now?
>>155003189
no worries, just pay $5 and you can get your waifu's voice backgoyim.
>>155003245
Honestly the change of the voice commands is fucking idiotic. Now if you are in Ranked and one of your teammates either has their ult up or need Grover to bring spring on their ass you have to look who said it, and in a shooter, that's a risky move, an enemy can come up and kill you for not paying attentionespecially if it's a Kinessa, which will one shot you if she has the right cards.
>>155003458
I agree, it does affect gameplay.
Maybe if enough people voice their complaint against it they will change their mind.
I doubt it though.
>>155003528
>Maybe if enough people voice their complaint against it they will change their mind.
The forums been rather vocal about it, but this is Hirez we're talking about, the chance of them not getting people jew'd for a few shekels is low.
I ain't letting this one die yet. So have an Evie.
>>155005115
any good fanarts of Ying?
>>155005212
Promo art for the Steam release, most of Ying art is pretty shitty.
Bump.
To save the thread, who is your favorite character and who do you main?
>Cassie
>Cassie
>>155006642
Kinessa andVictor
>>155006642
Currently? Victor.
I would like to try out more characters though.
Which one would you suggest to someone with bad aiming skills?
>>155006898
For people that suck at aiming I would say you could play these heroes:
>Grohk
You get a lazer, a panic button, a healing totem, and your ult attacks 2 nearby enemies and heals 2 nearby allies
>Barik
You get Turrets, A shield, a panic button to run away, and ult is a shield
>Fernando
You get a shield, a panic button to run away and for reposition, and his ult can keep you and your allies alive so you can push the payload or to stay on the point.
>Ruckus
You get fast firing guns, a shield for you and your allies, a panic button so you can run away, and your ult is a rather good damage dealer.
Some may say other characters but for me, those are the ones I use whenever I play with mylaptop's touchpadand I still get a few kills.
I made the OP, so use this for the next thread.

If this thread going to survive
so far we only have here 4 people
Also I didn't add this on the OP but, if you want free skins, here are a few giveaways.
>Northen Cassie skin
http://www.mmorpg.com/giveaways.cfm/offer/768/Paladins-Free-Cassie-Skin-Key-Giveaway.html
>Commando Buck
http://www.pcgamesn.com/Paladins/Paladins-open-beta-champion-giveawayThere was also a Black Ice Evie giveaway but there are no more keys.
>>155008150
Hopefully it will survive, the /v/ thread has around 54 posters, and with the steam release, the player base will surely grow.
Are there any info on what the next hero will be?
And can I get the Baric skin from training games or do i need to play casual/ranked?
>>155008601
Dataminers found out that the new hero is Mal Damba, and you must play 5 casual games, if my information is correct.
>>155008816
win 5 casual games or just play? I think it's win right?
It's pretty hard when the other 4 players all pick either damage or flankers.
>>155008857
Win. And I agree, that's why I'm not even trying to get that skin, all the casual matches and even ranked ones I've played lately, had been games with 4 flankerson my own teamand I got stuck being a support for all of them.I lost them all.
I can't get 5 minutes into the game without being booted back to the login screen with "Unable to Connect to Server." Is the server shitting itself?
>>155009016
I think so, I can't get into a game either. After picking characters countdown stops at 0 and nothing happens.
PAY 2 WIN
>>155009016
Probably. At least you're not like me and my potato laptop that lags the second I get near the point.
>>155009119
what do you buy to win more?
I made some research and the servers are shitting themselves because of the wave of new players from the steam release.
http://steamcharts.com/app/444090
>>155009668
Good for the game I suppose.
Not so good for the actual players since they can't really play.
>>155009818
I guess,with the game having more players I will get more Cassie fanart and lewds so I'm not complaining.
Hopefully Hi-rez will fix this quickly.
If anyone is interested, here some spoils for the next patch.
>Next Patch Evie can no longer Blink in Ice Block.
>Ying is coming back next patch.
>New champion will be released in 2 weeks,probably.
>Most major changes are over and done with.
>They're working on things like new maps, skins, champs, cards, etc.
>>155011183
I'd like to see new skins that aren't just recolors.
Also their server is still fucked right now. I guess I'll have to wait a few hours before I try to play again.
A'ight faggots, this thread made me interested in the game.
Sell me itno seriously, do that, I need a fucking multiplayer game to play, I'm fucking desperate
>>155011251
I bet most of the new skins will be for Pip, so don't get your hopes up too much.
And it seems it will be like this for almost a day, so right now I'm just staying(keeping the thread alive)on the general and posting stuff till Hi-rez fixes this mess.
>>155011357
You get waifus and F2P Overwatch. There's also furbait and a few fun characters. There's also ranked, but the only mode for now is Siege. Don't download it now, because the servers are shitting themselves because of the new players from steam, so everybody is stuck waiting till Hi-rez does something.
So what the fuck is "loot"? I open my chests from winning and all I see is "You won loot"
>>155011697
Now this is what I don't get. Waifu in a first person shooter.
Why the fuck?
>>155011903
Why the fuck not? Overwatch's waifus seem to be doing fine.
>>155011903
So waifufags spend money for cosmetics.
>>155012034
>>155012026
>spend money on waifu cosmetics that you can't even see while playing
>spend money on waifu cosmetics that only other people can see
It's baffling to me and it's pretty much the reason I never bothered with Overwatch.
Well I'm downloading the game anyway, good thing it's only like 2GB. How big is the player base? I'd hate it if I have to wait 15 minutes to get matched.
>>155012187
The server is currently shitting itself because of the influx of new players from Steam. Queuing should be pretty fast but whether you'll get into the game or not is the big question right now.
I suggest just play tomorrow after they fix this whole server overload problem.
oh
it's a hirez game
rip tribes ascend
>>155012278
How about solo bot practicing matches? Does it exist? Does it require matchmaking server connection?
I'm fine with just trying it out to get the gist of the game in the meantime.
>>155012187
Considering the matchmaking takes around 3 minutes maximum because of deserters, and with the steam release, you won't be waiting much.
Also first 5 matches are with bots.
As >>155012278 said, wait till tomorrow, hopefully Hi-rez does something till then.
>>155012350
RIP game with literally 100 players.
Devs need to eat and those 100 people ain't gonna feed a whole company.
>>155012438
i meant the first time they killed it, years ago
did they kill it again recently
>>155012409
You can probably enter the solo practice room(it's not a proper match though).
>>155012527
I don't think so. At least they came back to it. It does seem like a logical thing to do. Focus on the game that brings them money and then when they have enough money they continue developing for the one they put into stasis.
Servers got an emergency restart.
https://twitter.com/hirezops/status/777123045085356032I'm also running out of Cassie art, send help.
>>155012721
>running out of Cassie art
>>155012721
just post windrunner instead, it's basically the same
>>155011896
plz respond
>>155012721
start posting Fernando then.
>>155012852
no idea really, you should've gotten cards or if you're lucky, skins.
Maybe it has something to do with the server fucking up so you can't see what you got.
>even the UI is similar to Overwatch
>>155011896
>>155012852
Loot are cards and/or skins.
Cards are used for character loadouts.
When I opened my first loot box nothing showed up, but you definitely do get something.
>>155012797
Thanks senpai.
>>155012815
>It's basically the same
The resemblance is uncanny.
>>155012869
Have 1 (one) Fernando fanart.I also have some Skye lewds, more specifically, a futa one, and one with her and Cassie.
>>155013119
>>155013180
>That Cassie's face
>>155013180
Is that male or female?
>>155013119
[VVGW]
>>155013490
There are a few good lewds, the rest are either SFM or pure shit.
>>155013589
I wish there was more SFM of Paladins usable as reaction faces.Also Skye is best girl
>>155013978
There are a few models ripped from the game, so I could try making some later, probably.Also have a Skye lewd for your good taste.
It's... actually really fun. What the fuck?
My major complain is that there's not a single explanation of what ability does what though.
>>155014254
Press K while in match, or go to the Champions tab and click on the champion you want to see their skills.
Hey guys
>>155014140
I hope they will keep the ruffled hair but also add other option when she will get converted to the new cosmetic system.
>>155014254
Press "K" in game, or check Characters profiles before the game. You're lucky to get games going, I keep having bad state ones.
>>155014492
>Tfw the only skins that I want are the Vampire Slayer and Operative
Being poor is suffering.
>>155014773
I got Operative only through daily Crystals, Vampire slayer is pretty neat but I'm not really fond of her personality. I would rather use comfy Cassie.
>>155014887
Comfy Cassie best Cassie.I wasted my crystals on Evie, because at start I had fun with her, but now I can't even kill something without having to soar every 5 seconds.
>>155015060
I can't deal with her new projectile velocity, and what's the point of playing her if I can't spam "MEEEEEEEEE".
>>155015320
The moment they took Evie's voice, they killed Evie.
Also question, should we go by /palagen/ or /palgen/?
>>155015672
/palgen/
Well then, with the servers shitting themselves, I will go to sleep.
Don't forget to use this >>155007985 when the thread dies, or the bump/image limit is hitwhich is very unlikely but anyways.
Also some skin giveaways. >>155008331
Goodnight.
Does some of the skins change the character's personalities/voice lines?
Why most of the fanart is shit?
>>155018279
Cassie's Vampire Slayer skin changes her voice lines.
It's a "Kinessa player is the one with the least points" episode.
Why am I not surprised.
>>155018309
Give it time, with more people playing it there's bound to be some decent artist who will make fanarts.
>>155019596
Kinessa attracts the worst players. To have a better Paladins experience:
>Block Kinessa playersWhen will Hirez add a block button
>Don't play with Kinessa players
>Ignore Kinessa players
>>155019596
>Kinessa & Androxus instalock
>they do barely anything the whoe game
REEEEEE
>>155019906
I wish Run and gun Kinessa was still a thing so I could pick her and be actually useful.
>>155001496
Would some kind anon buy me the founders pack? It's on sale and I am but a poor farmer tending to my memeswhich means college student
We needed a tank so I decided to try Frenado, and holy fuck do I like his right click. He seems pretty damn useful for the team.
>>155020292
If you have time to vidya and browse 4chan, you have time to work.
>>155020474it's because I left the state for college and left my SS card so I can't really work
>Tfw this thread didn't die like last time
Somebody even made an OP and we got a name, feels good.
Honestly having a good time, might even shell out for the founders pack. Does anyone know when the 33% discount ends?
Even though it pretty much turned into free overwatch from what it was before, is it sad I feel like it's better than Overwatch?

How come there wasn't a Paladins general till now?
Also, did we choose a name yet or nobody made a poll?
>>155023530
It comes and goes because earlier in it's development cycle, Hi-Rez would make it fun and broken on and off way too often.
Right now it works, but it wouldn't surprise me if the next patch fucking killed it again for like the 7th (not even exaggerating here) time.
>>155023608

Jesus is this the Hi-rez magic I've been hearing about?
I just downloaded this game, is there anyone who wants to say I referred them?

>>155028327
You earn gold by leveling up your level and masteries of the champions. You unlock them with gold.
>>155026395
because no one likes us there and they say mean things about our waifus
>>155026395
Because Smitefags and Palaboys don't get along well.
Anyone want the friend referral from me?

Is Pip just the best healer in the game? He seems amazing compared to the other two.

>>155030356

> Get queue'd
> Wait till everyone joins
> Choose champion
> Have fun
Or it's just the server shitting itself.
>>155030553
No.
Not trying to start a fanboy war here but how does this game compare to Overwatch? It looks interesting but a lot of the characters seem to be really similar to Overwatch characters, plus the P2W thing really bugs me (some idiot with too much money having all the best cards, etc).
>>155030780
Gonna be honest, it's the poor man's Overwatch. In terms of gameplay it's a bit weaker than OW but it does have its own set of interesting mechanics.
It's not P2W though, don't worry. You can buy all of the cards with in-game currency and the founder pack will unlock all current and future champions.
>>155030780
>P2W
Literally anyone can buy the cards, because gold is so easy to earn and You got nothing else to Use it on other than recolors. Paladins is poor man's Overwatch, but it's still rather fun.
>>155030553
You get 5 free champs of each class. 5 others are on a free rotation every week.
>>155031249
There is no rotation, that's Smite you're talking about.
>>155031113
>>155031029
Alright, so it's not P2W, got it.
But MANY of the characters seem painfully similar to Overwatch (the shield tank guy, the flying rocket launcher girl, the hook guy, the dwarf, the Totally-Not-Reaper guy), so if the gameplay isn't quite on par with Overwatch, eh.
Since its F2P I'll check it out once it hits console but unless the whole card system really grabs me, I can't see myself choosing this over OW for a competitive arena shooter experience.
>>155031249
Are the champs you get random? or do you get to pick or pre decided
>>155031553
>The flying rocket launcher girl
>Girl
Also, it's Hirez, what were you expecting?
HIREZ DOES IT AGAIN
>>155031553
There are similarities in some character designs but skills are not exactly the same. They all have different skills compared to their Overwatch lookalikes and plays differently.

>>155026395
A bit late to this but I was around for the first Paladins threads. For some fucking reason quite a few anons were upset about Paladins just existing, saying it was taking attention away from Smite which needs it more and is a better game. They were also getting progressively angrier that namefags/established people in the general were playing Paladins instead of Smite.

Is Skye actually good? I can't see to do enough damage with her.
>>155035917
Use her right click.
Her bomb ult is also pretty OP.
>>155035917
Skye is a squishy, and most of the time, when I play Skye, I hunt down the low HP enemies/their Kinessa/Fernando, they're easy kills.
I want to bully Ying!
>>155037026
Ying is not for bullying!
My friends are kinda stupid when it comes to games like this. I want to learn how to be a decent support as I like the idea of Pip but because of a single bad game (literally my first match against real players) because my friend were in such a hurry to play a real game they are telling me that I shouldn't play as Pip. I am still in the progress of learning characters (didn't even try them all at that point) and unlocking cards so of course I am going to suck at the game if you queue up like that. Now their logic is that I should never play as Pip because of an awful unprepared game where honestly it is the only character I want to git gud at for the moment. So they pretty much making me choose not having fun or just quit playing altogether and yet they wonder why I avoid games like this when they ask me to join in. I see very little reason to play a game if it isn't fun for you.
Of what little I had play though it seem fun, I just need more friends with the right mindset.
>>155037113
I want to pick on Ying till she starts crying and makes a few illusions to comfort herself!
I want to destroy the illusions and her mirror so she is all alone, slowly becoming a crying mess because of said bullying!
I want to remind Ying that without her illusions and her mirror she is useless!
I want to teach Ying to be a proper healslut for all of those big, muscular tanks that protect her useless squishy ass!
I want to give Ying a slutty outfit, and parade her on a leash, while every other champion laughs at her and she begs me to let her go!
I want to rape Ying till all that's left of her is a cock hungry healslut, ready to be anyone's cumdumpster!
Ying was made for bullying!
>>155037884
>Bullying Ying
Why?
>>155037416
I'mma go out on a limb and say your friends are retarded.
>tryharding in casual

>casual
I'd understand if it were Ranked, but then the problem wouldn't even be there because you'd have already played Pip. I bet one of your friends just fucking spams Borik or Cassie too, those people always take the matches I'm in way too seriously.They're also probably just trying to legitimize why they lost by blaming it on you, a third party.
So who here /Evie/?
Choo choo
Is there some sort of confirmation email that game will send you after registration?
Fuck, I tried to play earlier but servers were down. Now I can't login because I forgot my nickname ( Had to use some numbers with name because some faggot already took my go-to nick) and I don't want to create yet another one. And also game tells me to fuck off, because my email is already in use.
So far my email box was empty.

Ohh alright, thanks boss.
Anyone know if this game has "aim assist" like Overwatch?
>>155041323
Do you mean huge hitboxes on projectiles like Hanzos arrows? It's worse than in OW. Characters like Grover don't even need to aim proberly.
Anyone know what the hell the expected console release date is for this and Gigantic? Wanna try out both.
>>155034408
>That dummy just ran straight with no attempt at dodging.

>tfw you're grover
Maps feel like they're made for a 1 lane moba, I like it though, keeps the games short and sweet. Still have no idea how which cards are good/bad, every game I go with direct damage reduction, movement speed, life on hit, extra damage or reload.

>They're also probably just trying to legitimize why they lost
Sound like something they would do honestly. You might be spot on with that. What they don't understand is that they often ruin games for me by doing that shit. I never get upset on a player match with any game because if you lose that mean another human was better than you, not necessary the lack of skill. In that case the Skye player play the character well and assrape me throughout the game even when I knew she would be coming.
Pip is pretty fun though. A healer that can actually deal damage. Only issue is if the whole team get wipe from doing something stupid then you are kinda fuck only stuck as the other team get closer with the objective while you feel useless.
>Yesterday was winning every single game
>Today lose every single game 'cause of drooling retards not going to the point.
People have to start somewhere, r-right?
I main Pip but I need a sub or two.
Should I go with Cassie or Kinessa?
Like, which of the two has more pros than cons?
>>155050454
>Today lose every single game 'cause of drooling retards not going to the point.
Yeah, some people don't even bother to block caps, not even the front liners.
Just started playing, and bought the founder's pack. I really enjoy playing flank and I think I do pretty good at it, I'm not scoring high like everyone but I feel like I'm doing well.
Am I just bad and don't understand?
Also Evie is cute.
>>155050887
>kinessa
Do you want to be completely useless or a burden to the entire team? Go Kinessa
>>155052002
>useless
>kinessa
yeah maybe if youre bad with her and cant knock targets off the point
Actually havingfun
I'm surprised really. But I can say visually leaves a lot to be desired.
Viktor best hero comfirmed.
>>155052873
>Viper
That's a weird way to spell Pip, my man.
>>155053173
Not trying to argue but honestly interested in why you think Viktor is the best. His movement skill is only for movement and his right click is just a scope. With the ultimate being limited (though admittedly great compare to most) that only leave you with your gun and a grenade skill. Extremely simple to use but in terms of potential I can't see why anyone would say he is the best.
In your opinion, who's the best healer? I figure it's pip because most people seem to play him
>>155053284
it certainly is but once you start being able to click directly on people you'll get used to it
>>155053707
Worth noting Pip is the only support type you start out with for free unless you got the Founder's pack. Ton of people playing as him when it is now a open game isn't that surprising. That shouldn't be a factor.Also I bet furries would play him just because.
>>155053535
That grenade and his aim. I suppose It's still depending on having a good team for cover, but you can melt people.
>>155052002
>>155052873
With differing opinions on this thread, I guess I'll go for Drogoz for now.
>>155053707
As a pip player, when enemies are grouped on a point, I use weightless to get behind them and use my ultimate, gives my mates a fighting chance. Don't know who's the best healer though.

What was wrong with Ying? Never heard about this game till Steam release. Please enlighten this one.
>>155054551
Activate the speed shooter -> Jet boosters -> Enjoy melting the enemy team.
Also his Ult can nuke more than one target if they bunch up together. Great for taking out Fernando or Recka
>>155056528
Oh, and activate his ult in a secure area, you're helpless for about 3 seconds when you initially use it.
So Anons, who's your favorite champion?
I'm really liking Pip
>>155001496
So will this be a good F2P game compared to overwatch or a total fail like other games?
>>155056528
>>155056664
Got it, thanks!
>>155055527
Fun times ahead, I'm sure
>>155057710
Well, they just need more map variety and heros and I think it can be a solid F2P Overwatch like game.
I don't like how similar some of the Heros are, but it does play different. Also don't like the art style too much, but that can be overlooked.
>>155058345I forgot the e in Heroes.
GG grammar.
>>155058345

Thank god that's the case.
Seriously I was worried this was going to be the skill level for the general pop.But they had me fooled because some of them started singling me out and trying to just flank me.
>>155060534
Did you max out the Mastery or something?
>>155060803
But then again it doesn't make sense, I picked the quick play equivalent. And it said join in battle against other players.
I feel like I'm getting rused by not just the bots but the game itself.
>>155060934
No, I just downloaded it today and only played one game on the guy. it's the edgey looking flanker. (Eive a best)
>>155061202
Hmm, well I did notice something about a performance stat with the various Heroes. Maybe you just did very well your first match or something.
Oh, did you get the Founders pack though?
>>155061306
Yeah I got the founders pack. Is that it?
>>155001496
How can I check the FPS ingame?

Newfag who started playing this game yesterday here.
I'm havingfunbut everything looks a bit simplistic ( 2-5 minutes matches, really? ). I've watched a couple videos and apparently the game mechanics used to be more complex.
Any idea why Hi-Rez scrapped everything? I'm kinda bummed about that old card system, which looked much more interesting than the current one, and the old siege mode.
>>155069891
the game was worse .... and less popular. It's not like it's good now, but feels like it's better.
Damn this is fun.
New maps soon tho, right?
RIGHT?
>>155069891
I don't know how to feel about the current card system, back in CBT we went through dozens of stupid fucking setups. Now I can't even go pure damage Pip, though I'm thankful they at least made weightless not-shit without cards.
>>155002312
>No hero switching does make it a bit hard if you start with a team full of flankers or damagers though.
yeah, but the point is you are supposed to choose your champions beforehand. kind of like in league.
I would imagine once the meta gets sorted out, more people will choose classes that work in coordination with the rest of the team(i.e. support, tank, damage, etc./good team comps)
>>155001496
Some people criticize the game for pretty much blatantly ripping off overwatch, but I think we should keep in mind that the two were both in development at the same time.
Even if they did rip off Overwatch,
because, to be honest, I wasn't really paying attention to the dev process, I still wouldn't hold them to fault,
because Overwatch is basically a rip off of tf2, AND they had the audacity to charge $40 bucks for it.
If you ask me, Jewzard got what it deserved, and hopefully Paladin's will take away from it's sales.
Also, the graphics are pretty shit, but that isn't a huge deal for a f2p game.
The UI isn't great either, and the p2w korean fps/mmo aesthetic and practices don't do it any favors either.
I say the gameplay is pretty fun too, considering it's free. Jumping around as the ripoff Pharah character was really enjoyable for me.
>>155070061
Please let their be new maps soon and not ((soon))
>>155071106
There's the checkmark thing in in char select so you can glance what you are missing.

>>Only play one part of the map now
Isn't it like for each payload there's 3 maps in one last patch. Like one palce it's the fishing vilalge and the next it's the centre forest.
>>155072478
They got rid of that for some damn reason in one of the 7 "hotfixes" they've done on this patch

>>155071732
>How so?
Kind of an exaggeration on my part, to be completely honest.
I guess my main problem with Overwatch, is that it was marketed(or at least perceived pre release) as an innovative game with moba mechanics and heroes yadayadayada, when in reality, it didn't really contribute much new to the genre.
Most "abilities" are weapons that would simply take up a weapons slot in any other fps, or a killstreak or pickup item you would find in another game.
Then of course there are the payload objectives, the engies, and the snipers with the exact same mechanics as in tf2.
So they didn't completely rip off tf2, but the few new ideas that they did add were poorly implemented, and not all that great to begin with.
I wouldn't even be so pissed about it if they didn't charge $40 for the game.
fuck me this game is fun. really quick matches and just easy to play! love it
>Hitting a lot of shots as Kinessa
>Three people focus me
I enjoy the game but I'm kinda pissed by how much damage characters are able to deal and how often I get casually instagibbed as a tank. I've played a bit of Smite before that and the game also a fucking mess. Looks like Hi-Rez can't into balance.
I've been following this game for sometime and it feels like devs are not really sure what they want to do and how. I'm really afraid for it's future, they might just drop it like they did it with GA and Tribes.
Also hit detection is even worse than in overwatch. There were so many time when I hit people just by shooting in their general direction as a Kinessa.
>>155075012
>Borik is frontline and can't actually solo tank that well
>Buck is now a flanker and can still chew through damage
What even is this. Also holy shit, there needs to be more damage falloff on the hitscan weapons.
Really enjoying it honestly. Overwatch is there, but the heroes are a tad different enough for them to be interesting. Hoping this game does well.
This shit will be dead in a few months after something new and shiny catches the autistic manchild hi-rez ceo's attention.
So much of paladins is watered down and dilluted to make sure that fucking retard feels empowered when he playtests.
He killed tribes, he shit on global agenda, he will abandon smite the moment the steam sales pick up on this polished piece of shit, and will immediately forget about it when the next new shiny trend comes out.
Supporting anything hi-rez makes is an effort in futility and we can only hope that he has some sort of auto erotic accident that cripples him or kills him into retirement.

>>155075193
I think no champion's hitbox is similar to one another.
Fernando and Makoa have gigantic hitbox that you can pretty much hit without even having to aim, but Evie for example, has really small hitbox.
The hitbox size was probably designed based off of champion's health, which is kinda dumb.
>>155075564
no, there is an interview there somewhere. They probably shrunk her hitbox because faglord the ceo playtested and got hit once and he felt it was unbalanced.
>>155072714
Hope it comes back. They just have to make a big notification of the sub map change.
>>155075012
You have to be preventative with your damage mitigation
Anyone here have a refer email? Assuming that gets me and you some goodies.
Who to buy?
>>155075012
all the tanks are pretty tanky. it's the other classes that have serious survivability issues. Most of them die in 2-3 hits.
Tell me about Bomb King.
I was going to pick him up but got sidetracked by Evie being too much fun. I heard something about him being nerfed hard, but how is he really?
>you have to buy characters
this is pretty disgusting
>>155079590
it's free to play you wank. unlock them by playing the game.
>>155079228
He's pretty ok, "pros" play him around using poppy bomb for super high mobility. He's basically better Drogoz.

Fuck Viktor you fucking super damage shit I hope you cook your grenades too long
>>155084513
Buck is sub par.
>>155085231
Nah, he just needs a certain playstyle. He's not a in-your-face type, he's a ShoveMyDickInYourFaceSoHardYou'llBeCoughingUpCumAfterYouRespawn type. Catch a straggler or a backline alone and pull your pants down.
if you pick a dmg dealer, you end up without a tank or a healer, or they're just retarded. If you pick a tank or a healer, you end up with retarded carries .... why ....
>>155085475
Others do that better or do slightly better but can do other stuff.

Am I playing with bots on the enemy team when I play casual? The enemy names are always generic as fuck, makes me think they aren't real people.
>>155090135
Until you get to level 5 yes
If I play mercy, janna/sona, rylai, etc, is there a qt healer in this game?

Until level 5 you play with bots.
But there's also a thing when somebody crashes, they get replaced by a bot.

There's Ying, but they removed her to balance her. She is back next patch.

>>155090754
>>155090853
>being literally retarded
>>155090754
Well, Fernando is more of a "Shield down, go and fight" type champion. Because of your HP, the other enemies will focus on you, giving your allies a window to kill the enemies. Don't stay on the point/payload all the time. Fight till your shield's countdown finishes and then try to keep your allies alive.
Also you play with bots, so that's that.

>>155096978
I had a Fernando that redefined the term 'retarded'. While the enemy team was pushing the cart into our base he was back at point running around in circles and shielding. When they finally pushed the cart in, he fucking popped his ult.

From what I'm gathering, he's stating that his "MAIN PROBLEM" with Overwatch is that it was marketed or percieved as an innovative game with MOBA-like gameplay. Blizzard did not go around marketing the game like that in any way, it was just a pre-conceived notion enforced by the sperglords at Gearbox and nothing more, just your usual intra-industry banter gone horribly wrong for one side.
Overwatch? Innovative? HAH! 100% of all Blizzard products are made from the husks of other games.
I was just laughing at the dumb motherfucker that said "muh main prrrrblm woz game like murkteeedeed as a MUUUBAAA", which was a pretty retarded statement to make.

Hey guys paladins dataminer here. This is a new hero I found in the files, her name is D.Va and here's 5 facts about her:
- She's a girl
- Her real name is Hana Song
- She's cute!
- I love her!
I want to brush Torbjorn's beard
>>155108194
I want to play with little Fareeha!

Whoa wait who are the two on each end? Sombra and some other new guy?
>>155108429
I was thinking the same thing
For a second I thought the guy beside Gabriel could've been Genji, but he'd be a cyborg at the time of that picture
They're probably just generic soldier people
Could this game be the next Battleborn?
>Download game
>Log in to hirez
>I have to run game as administrator but when it asked to start as adminstrator I said yes
What the fuck am I supposed to do
>>155108521
Yeah Genji was a cyborg during the Omnic Crisis so it can't be him.
>>155108545
The fact that Paladins is free to play alone guarantees that it won't be.

No, you can unlock them with gold and some skins with gold too. The more elaborate skins cost money.
This game has the worst hit boxes of any FPS I have ever played.
>>155108858
This never happens in Overwatch

You get heroes by in-game currency, which is very easy to get.

It was done with Battleborn General too, and when Battleborn was on the horizon people wouldn't shut up about Battleborn in /owg/ either.
>>155109443
But this is the overwatch general anon.
>>155109443
Not that shitposter but don't pretend Paladins is better than Overwatch. Maybe someday it could be but it has a lot of issues. I still have a lot of fun with it but Overwatch is definitely the better game from a gameplay perspective.
>>155109443
Oh, my bad, I thought I was in /owg/; I clearly saw Hanzo and Bastion in the OP. Sorry!
>>155109443
this EXACT "meme" happened with /smitegeneral/ and /paladinsgeneral/ like a year ago.
>>155109397
>Defelect
His deflect collects attacks and sends it back. It is a different
>Dash
Didn't know having a generic ability could be copied. And even then, they add upon that with the ability to dash into the air and float down.
>Ult that shoots big powerful bombs for a few seconds
Again, something so simple is supposedly only Over watch exclusive.
>Dragon aesthetic
Fuckin wot?
>>155109397
So in the end he's not like anyone individually, he just happens to have similarities to multiple characters. You could literally do this for any character made ever.
>>155109563
it costs $40, nigger. go to your general.
>>155109657
that's clearly a sniper with a huntsman
>>155109665
Don't try to say something isn't copying something else when you know nothing about what is being copied.
Servers got restarted to fix some stuff, and to add more servers.

who /requestinghotpocketsupport/ here??
>>155110005
Yes, all servers are under maintenance, that's why nobody can join a match.
The new Steam players overflooded the servers, and Hirez didn't expect that to happen.
Is mercy in this game?
>>155110087
I can't even log in that is why I was wondering what is happening.
Also why are you tripfagging already?
>>155110168
because he wants to kill the general more than the overcucks
>>155110015
His deflect collects. Meaning he gathers various shots at him and send them back all at once.
So who's ult does he copy? Bastion or genji?
>>155110168
it's clear he wants attention and recognition.
>>155110168I was a tripfag from the original Paladins general till it died, I have nothing better to do.
>>155110267
You are killing the general before the game gets and popularity, it will be your fault if shit happens.
>>155110231
Overwatch is the objectively superior game. The only people who think this shitpile is better in any respect are le epic rebbit contrarians who hate Overwatch for being popular.
>>155109662
It's the exact same thing that happened to the battleborn general, too. I just want to enjoy my game without unfunny shilling shitters who'd rather shitpost than play their own game bloat the general with nothing

Isn't it going to die anyway?With OWboys shitposting it to death like Stillborn's general?

Overwatch is more polished. This game, even though it's barely in beta, has more depth than overwatch, which makes it better to me. Now please, leave the general and go back to tripfagging in /owg/ and sucking on Kaplan's dick
Only 7 more characters until I can do competitive. Add me in-game (NA): eschew

Also the meme P2W cards won't give much more depth because there will only be a handful of meta decks you can use for a given character for it to be competitive.

Oh, Battleborn has a general now? Good to see it making a comeback.
>>155111694
her ult is retardedly OP
it's bullshit
We were winning pretty hard and then it said final push failed when we were at their base. The game started over again. How do you win? Is there any penalty if you leave match? Do you still get rewards if you leave?
>>155111805
Check the score at the top. When you successfully captured an objective your team get 1 point. Successfully push and that's another 1 point. If you failed to push then the enemy team gains 1 point. Game will then reset until 1 team reaches 4 points.
No idea about leaving penalty.
>>155111805
>We were winning pretty hard and then it said final push failed when we were at their base. The game started over again.
Final push failed means that nobody was near the payload when overtime was in effect.
>How do you win?
Siege mode has a few rounds so a team can get 5 points to win.
>Is there any penalty if you leave match?
From what I know, at the moment, no.
>Do you still get rewards if you leave?
No.

I wonder how this will end.
If you haven't realized already, capitalizing on things that have already been done and shown to be effective is a smart strategy. Tencent, one of the biggest companies in the world, does this. Blizzard does it. Riot did it, and Valve even implemented things from LoL.
Keep feeding Paladins attention, good on Dunkey for making a meme video that already has a million views and I'm sure 80% of the people had no idea what paladins was.
>>155111694
nerf her ult's radius
>>155112205
Stupid comparison, Overwatch filled the gap that was left when people got bored with TF2 and there were no similar games. People are already hooked on Overwatch, they're not going to play a less-polished version of the same exact game. They'll play it for a bit because it's free but eventually go back to OW because it simply plays better.
>>155112457
I never even bought Overwatch How do I go back to OW?

Paladins is still in beta.
>>155112205
>LoL copied from something with a long time of field testing, had success because it fixed a lot of flaws the older game had.
>Overwatch copied from something after a long time of field testing, had success because it fixed a lot of flaws the older game had.
Paladins copied from something that is already a copy of something else.
I want this game to have success but your train of thought isn't that simple like you think it is.
>>155112598
>the game will change drastically between beta and now, really!
It would need an Overwatch-level of polish to be good, otherwise it's literally a downgrade of a better game that's already out. But LowRez doesn't have the money or manpower to make a game that polished.
>>155112615
You do know dota originated from warcraft, right? It took elements from that.
>>155112831
It's different, warcraft is not a MOBA.
>>155112749
It doesn't need to change drastically though. That's just your opinion.
>>155112942
It would need a graphical overhaul, a huge hitbox change, and overall tighter gunplay to be equal to Overwatch. Otherwise it's just a poor-man's Overwatch with a card gimmick.
>>155112937
No, don't backpedal. Dota wasn't a completely original game. Very few games are completely original, and that's all there is to it.
>>155112749
While it's not on Overwatch's level I don't think Paladins is currently really that bad. I wasn't really impressed when it started closed beta a year ago but after I went back to it a while ago I like the new changes and it does feel much more polished than before.
Will it beat Overwatch? I don't think so. But I don't think a game need to kill another game of the same genre to be able to succeed. And currently Paladins offers a nice hero shooter experience with card-based customization and MOBA item elements. They just need to develop it right and it should do well.
Let's stop replying to shitposters. Let's actually let this game grow and discuss the actual topic of the thread.
>Buffs, nerf recommendations
>Best champion of their respected class

Why do they call it "Paladins", when the characters are called "Champions"?
>>155115776
Hilarious
Are servers down for everyone or just for me?
>>155115574
The decks give you certain buffs, and yes, the in-game 'burn cards' became items, that you can upgrade.
>>155115786
because chinese game developers don't know
all smiles
>>155115771
pretty good amount. You could complete some champions cards set or buy quite a few recolor skins with that amount of gold.
As a Pip main I try my best to be a decent healer, I really do but I also want to attack as well given my AoE and ability to hit around corners (extremely useful for the map that start you off fighting in the long hallway). Finding a balance between the two is hard as there are often moments I'll be like "o yea, how everybody HP doing, oh shit they all already half dead". I have gotten into the habit that when pushing with the group I'll just cast the potion whenever it is up on the ground near me regardless if anyone within eye view may need it or not. Of course I pay more attention when we aren't bulldozing the whole game. I like to assume if someone need healing they will stand nearby a Pip somewhere in the back of the group. Otherwise I just focus on the tank and damage dealers that seem to know what they are doing.

Some weapons can't Headshot. Anything that's an aoe explosive (Pip, Evie, Drogoz, Bomb King) and any Beam Weapon/Weapon with no Ammo (Fernando, Grohk, Grover) cannot Headshot, it's only hitscan weapons that can. I don't think Makoa can headshot either.
WHY THE FUCK IS THE GAME DOWN
WHY
WHY
WHY
>>155118120

>>155117480
You just have to hit the upper body, not necessary the head. I assume it is to make the game more casual friendly. Also to be fair Bomb King and a few other character heads are pretty much just their upper body anyway.

>>155114968
I loved Fernando the first time I played him, but honestly he's not great at all. Once his shield is on cd you're useless because asides from his ult the rest of his abilities are kinda crap. The fireball has a long cd, isn't that easy to land and doesn't deal any significant damage, his charge plain sucks and his flamethrower does pathetic damage.
I wish his skills had more utility attached to them, even it required cards. What about a stun on his charge? Or a debuff that reduces the damage dealt by enemies hit by his Q? Or even a chance to set people ablaze with his flamethrower? There are a lot of possibilities. Really I just want him to be more than a shield bot.

How do you even come to this conclusion. I don't own overwatch or plan to buy it, Paladins is free so why not play it? The fact you think people here are purposely playing Paladins just to spite you is hilarious.
>>155131235
because they're tanks ..
I changed my mind, /owg/ has proven to me that the OW fanbase is full of Tumblr-level faggots and autists. The shipping ruined the franchise.

Is there a way to keep health bars up at all times? No one really needed healing, but if they did I wouldn't be able to tell
>>155131771
How many heroes
>>155131771
Am I the only one who gets MNC vibes from this game? Like cards along with the in-match store remind me so much of sponsorships and levelling up in MNC.Which is fine by me, I fucking loved MNC before it turned into that monstrosity SMNC.
So uh, I went to training mode to relearn the game a bit. it's still me to open the store with I , but nothing happens
Who's the most cancerous champion at the moment? Barik, Skye or Androxus?
>>155132553
Skye any day
>>155132553
Skye, without a doubt
>>155132553
>Barik
>Cancerous
Barik is one of the weaker frontliners right now. You can easily walk through his Barricade/Destroy it with Wrecker and his Turrets are made out of paper even with cards that enhance their HP. He really can't do much without his Turrets.
>>155131913
there is a specific option under the settings for that
>>155133264
i main barik and i think he's fine, the turrets stand out a lot but the only problem is that shitters dont care about them and then start crying after eating so many projectiles from them
tfw not playing any dmg characters ...
>>155128503
I am loving Grohk because of the shadow walk cool down. I'm honestly healing and killing because of it.
Plus Grohk's mouse 2 can bounce to other enemies, slowing them. If you aren't playing grohk, you aint playing support right.
Anyone gonna tell me how many heroes there are or...
>>155134073
constantly. Not sure why I typed honestly.
>>155134172
Are you capable of using fucking google? Are you quite actually retarded? Do you have brain damage?

So what's the deal with the microtransaction shit in this game
are rare+ skins completely impossible to get without buying them?
I've played this game every now and then since November of last year, and it's kinda funny seeing all these new people defend it from Overwatch complaints even though the developers have been making the game more like Overwatch with every update recently.
>>155134563

dude what the fuck these bots are op as fuck
the maokoa bot is broken
Who are the devs/community people in Paladins?
Any paladins cosplay yet?
>>155135303
Bots are surprisingly good in this game. Many times it really felt like playing against real people. Except when some retarded bot just charges into five people kills you and then dies
Alright so guys help me understand a few things I haven't played in a bit. Just let me know if I got everything right.
Mounts are automatic now, and you can't re-mount
Skye's stealth is visible(?)
You can only have one of each type of upgrade(Defense, Utility, etc)
Capturing awards a point but successfully defending doesn't
Only tank classes have a shield ability
Chest can only be bought with real money.
Gold is only used for cards or unlocking new(?) heroes
Not sure about the last one because I have 72k gold on my account, I played a little in beta, but I have all of the heroes except for the turtle and the bomb guy
>>155001496
Did they stick with the Overwatch play? I want to know if I should come back or not.
>>155128639
>>155128639
I was about to post speaking of a run and gun memebuild for Kinessa too. But I think Heal on Teleport would be much better than well stocked and both Amplitude and Octopressor could be a few level down and maybe switch headstrong for faster scoping since you still want to snipe from time to time.
>people saying all my favorite stuff is shit
FUCK YOU I WON'T STOP USING A BOW AND A STAFF
>>155135683
They can even prioritize properly.
I played mostly Kinessa in my bot games and since I'm not shit at sniping I was completely flooring the bots because dat damage. After a certain point in a game all the bots would start focusing me hard. Any of them that could, would dive past my team as much as possible and any of them with long ranged attacks would try to shoot past my team to hit me. Kind of got annoying because lmao Androxus with bot aim, or those fucking Groot axes.
>>155001496
We need a proper OP for the next general desu.
>>155136056
>Capturing awards a point but successfully defending doesn't
Defending does award a point. If one team caps, and then the other team stops the payload, then the round will end with each team having one point.
>>155136406
I think they're preset to prioritize. I tried playing skye against bots and it was awful. even in stealth they were all staring straight at me and the second I dropped out I got raped.
>>155134172
On this topic, are we going to fill the other 5 slots later down the line?
>>155111136
kek, McReap
Ok I just started playing yesterday and so far it's just like tf2, i.e I get pitched with a bunch of retards and have to go healer myself. So what's the best healer?
Is it the furbait?pls don't let that be the case
>enter match
>two guys from my team
>we aren't going to play because this game is a copy of overwatch
Really? Is this some stupid boicot from reddit or just retards?
>>155137294
It's the furbait
Why do I feel like I'm playing against bots in casual?
best girl coming through
>>155138113
Blizzdrone will always make me laugh, they complain when somebody "copy" Blizzard, but Warcraft and Starcraft were rip-off of Warhammer and Warhammer 40K.
>>155128520
>TFW u so salty about paladin's copy paste of overwatch characters you start trying to meme.
Paladins isn't an overwatch clone, but its clear mid development they decided to steal and lampoon as much as they could to try and milk some of the poorfags over to themselves.
How long till its abandoned though?
>>155138594
>girl
Oh anon.
>>155138621
Funny enough though, warhammer started trying to copy blizzard later on because they started driving the company into the ground and needed something, anything, to keep their heads above water for a bit.
Thankfully the sue happy fuckwit that did most of that is gone and we now have a slightly more competent games workshop.
>>155138694
>what is feminine penis
come on lad, you already know the deal
>>155138643
I miss the build when they game as slow as fuck. I feel that was the best point in the game.
>hmm I wonder how Evie is these days
>she seems the same, lets play her
>ult does absolutely no damage
>can't even cast it from far away
alright
>>155139029
wait what the fuck evie's weapon damages herself???
why?
doing my first non-bot match now
why the fuck is my ping suddenly so high? jesus christ
>have enough to buy a new champion
>decide on Ruckus
>when using miniguns he moves so slow he is pretty much a stationary target
anyone have any tips for ruckus or did I fall for the robot Bastion meme?
>>155141041
Stick to the objective, and ration your boosts to move around. Reloading also doesn't kill your miniguns being revved up which is pretty useful, allowing you to just constantly reload until enemies show up.
The TTK is the worst part of the game so far. This is Call of Duty 1-2-3 shot kill bullshit everywhere everytime. Even tanks get melted very quickly. I like everything else but everyone dying immediately just makes it feel like a flashier cawadooty match with objectives and no random spawns.
The stupid fucking skilless ults are a big problem too; especially the ones that render the champ invincible while they get to 2 shot everything.
So does the shift key not to anything? It's in the keybindings for sprint but nobody seems to sprint, and pressing it does nothing?
why the fuck I need smite to play this game?
>>155089081
Those could use a buff.
where's my tf2 skin?
I'm missing something else?
No-lifing this game for the most part, I'm lvl 12 after two days already. If you wanna party up in-game, add me: eschew
Already got Fernando, Ruckus, Kinessa, Drogoz, and Grohk to lvl 4. Few more and I can play competitive (which probably won't be too much better than casual).
>>155142316
You don't. I uninstalled that piece of shit long before I played this and everything was fine.
>>155140917
Casual matches are worldwide, competitive mode is locked to your region. You prop. got owned by server location.
>>155142507
Some people are saying you need 5 wins AFTER you reach lvl 5. Cause before then it's only bots.
>this game crashes on start up every time
ebin
>>155142626
I can't play Paladins until Smite its done installing
>>155142659
Those were all real matches after he hit level 5. The game history doesn't show the ai matches. I've played 9 matches and only 4 of them appear in my history because those were the real players.
>>155142749
That has to be a glitch or something.
Drogoz legit reminds me of like one of those shitty OC furry characters made by 12 year olds
>his name is drogoz the slayer and he doesn't like humans(except me)
>>155142749
Installing or updating?
If you have smite installed the launcher will update it because it's a launcher for both games. It shouldn't install the game if you don't have it.
>>155142976
has the same problems as paragon .... characters exist for now reason, look the way they look without even a small explanation. They're just there ..
>>155143035
I dont have smite.
>>155143317
Senpai, they don't need to explain shit. It's a TF2/OW ripoff that is reallyfun.
wait what the fuck
you can't leave a match without quitting the game completely?
>>155143632
was trying to say that the character design is inconsistent.
>>155143805
>being a leaver scum and putting your team at a disadvantage
>>155144086
>continuing to play a game while you're not having fun like a good little cuck
yeah nah
I was actually considering playing this more but that settles it, already uninstalled. back to overwatch I guess
>>155144284
Bye
>>155142308
Shift doesn't do anything. It used to Summon Mounts back when you could Mount at any time but that was removed. Even back then the Mount Button was still called Sprint in the options for some reason.
I see people trying to force OW memes on this thread. Please try to be more creative with the memes.
>Fernando is my only tank
>Pick him
>3 people havent bought anything yet
>I solo pushed the cart to the finish but got 5v1'ed twice
>2-2, most unfun Ive had in forever
Seriously I wanted to die. I tried to tell people how to buy items but two people didn't
Game used to be good. It had its own special feeling that you couldn't really get from Overwatch or TF2, all the characters felt like they had a bit of depth to them and that the lore would be able to enhance them even further.
Then they decided to up and change the game for the "final" time. They turned it into basically Overwatch at that point, lowering the high TTK which made fights enjoyable and intense to very very low TTK, similar to Overwatch. What it basically meant was that as soon as you got into a fight, you died immediately. Hi-Rez supposedly made these changes because of the Overwatch crowd coming in to play, or maybe those people who didn't have Overwatch but wanted to play a bootleg version.
In the end, they kept listening to those people over those who had been playing their game and testing it. Many people left, including myself, during the beta and stopped playing. It was a real shame what happened to their game.
Now it looks like the game is pretty high up on the Steam charts. Great. I don't expect this to last for the game. In fact, I hope it doesn't. I hope that people figure out Hi-Rez has an awful company, leave the game, and force Hi-Rez to close down shop again.
I should have learned with T:A. I liked the way the game used to play but never really was too into it and everyone said that Hi-Rez really fucked it up. I can see now that they were right.
RIP Paladins 2015-early/mid 2016.
Any word on when consoles will get a beta?
Is there even any word on an actual full release yet? Fucking hate this "TBA 2016" garbage, BITCH 2016 IS ALMOST OVER, DELIVER
>>155110165
we don't have a single target healer yet, wait till ying re-release, perhaps she'll be one
>>155146846
How shit of a pc do you have if you can't even run paladins?
Does a lot of stuff in overwatch feel as cheap as some of the stuff here, like where is the skill supposed to be in Viktor and Skyes ults?
If so I'm glad I didn't waste my 40 bucks, these sorts games ain't for me
>>155147202
Maybe I don't have a PC, dumbshit, or I wouldn't be asking about a console release.
>>155147281
There is some counterplay to Viktor and Skye's Ultimate. For Viktor's Ultimate he needs to have sight of you to be able to fire the Artillery shells. If he can't see you, he can't fire it at you. For Skye's Ultimate, the explosion cannot go through walls. You can take cover behind and object that's still in the explosion raidus and not be affected by it. For example, if she uses it near the Payload, you can hide behind the Payload and you won't be affected even if you're technically in its radius.
Is the beta ever gonna come out on Ps4?
>>155147641

>>155148151
Hopefully not we have enough shovelware
>>155002980
Overwatch does have some features similar to TF2, but the games still feel completely different. On the other hand Paladins has features which are directly from Overwatch. Bringing up the "OVERWATCH COPIED TF2" ship up is rather retarded.
>>155146842
Most games get a lot of players for the first few days they go F2P on Steam, look at Evolve that one had over 50k concurrent a couple days after its relaunch now I think they're lucky to pull 5k. I do agree with what you said about the game. Though I continue to check it out for a couple matches after most major patches.
Have an old picture from when we used to rely on RNG to build our decks in a match. I loved the old Master Riding ;_;
>>155147281
No, ults are much easier to predict and counter in Overwatch.
>>155146842
I remember that sutff. Fernando couldn't die because he had some crazy health regen while standing on a point. Grokh with chain lighting and totems everywhere. Evie Clones. Skyes bomb was just a normal ability. Dodgeroll Cassie. Cancer Pip with endless slows and poison damage. fucking turrets.
Terrible card crafting that took forever to craft a random legendary.I miss those times too
>>155148894
>Evie and her clones up here
is it just me or is cassie overpowered as fuck
>>155149568
I was just going to say..
She has stupid a high dps
>>155149296
I feel nostalgic already.
>>155149568
>play Cassie once
>over 20 kills without dying
Yeah she's strong as fuck.
>Kinessa got lower overall damage output than me
Some kinessa players just uses rapid fire on sniper, doesn't even bother to charge.
>>155149568
How so, I tried Cassie for the first time on bots and I just hang back and dodge and cap when there's no enemies.
I'm more of a drogoz guy
Why is /v/ still so mad about Tribes? It was a game that didn't bring money and that's why they kill it. Also I know >going to /v/, that board is cancerous as fuck

Why can Evie teleport while in ice block????

>primary game mode is literally a carbon copy of Overwatch's Hybrid mode; capture points and escort payloads
YOU CANT MAKE THIS SHIT UP HAHAHAHAHAHAHA PALAKEKS WILL DEFEND THIS BLATANT AND SHAMELESS KNOCKOFF
>>155146842
Eh I played Paladins quite a bit both with friends and solo last year, and u disagree. Sticking to a single mode and revamping the card system the way they did feels a lot better to me. The auto mounting is a nice touch too. Mounting and dismounting constantly got old, though I do miss going super sonic speed with Skye on the horse with the cloak talent.
As for fights being shorter, I don't think it's that bad. Makes the games faster, which I like. In the end it just comes down to personal taste. Hirez knew that ow made a lot of good decisions when it came to gameplay and capitalized on it. They did the same for smite when they pretty much revamped wthe entire jungle to mirror LoL's. Though smite failed competitively because of their inability to focus on conquest, but that's another argument.
>>155150687
Who knows, but it's apparently being fixed in the next patch.
>>155150435
It was a fun game that spawned memes. It had its run, and instead of dropping it and moving on like hirez wanted to, they stuck around and continued to cry about it not being fun anymore.
In the end, they made the right decision to focus on new and fun profitable game (smite). I honestly don't think tribes could have been any better no matter how much they tried. It was never going to be tf2 or cs levels of popular.
Gigantic will be better than this or Overmeme
>>155151373
All with its 10 heroes.
>>155151917
It has 1 (one) less hero than Paladins, fuckboi
Why is skye so fucking fun

And Paladins will be getting more? Gigantic is literally struggling that they had to lay off a shit ton of employees.

What do the different borders in the character selection screen mean?
>>155153436
There's a score tab after the game ends, and you can also look at scores from previous matches from your profile.
Does Life Rip's Lifesteal work for DoT's like Skyes?
Does anyone know why she was removed?
>>155154085
She's being reworked. Will be back next patch.
Finally saved up to 8000
Which champion should I buy?
I mostly play fernando right now because so far it doesn't look like you can win without him.
I like champions that don't really require me to aim well.... so I was looking to buy Bomb King, Buck, or Ruckus
Which one of these is the funnest?
Is there a Discord or anything?
I'd love to play with some actual people and not just pure randoms.
>Skye's ult range
Seriously what the fuck is this? It already hits like a truck, they also had to make it hard as fuck to dodge? Fucking nice job Hi-Rez.

>>155156501
It's pretty much like D.Va's ult from Overwatch, just get out of sight line from the center and you'll be fine. Hiding behind the payload works apparently, though if a Skye is ulting with the payload nearby she should be putting it on top of the payload to prevent that. I'm actually not sure if a shield blocks it though, I haven't played Skye in weeks and even then it was rare for me to run into a tank.
