So afraid for this game...
-
Honestly I myself don't have any problem with clones either. Overwatch may not have original mechanics, but the way it combines the mechanics is unique, and that's enough. I'm just angry at those gamers who act like overwatch is the only game that's allowed to exist and any other game with 1% similarity to it, needs to burn ! We all have been there. Imagine someone asked his friend:" I heard about this new game called bleeding edge, is it any good?" And his friend says :"Lol it's just an overwatch clone" And the first one says:" Oh , so why should I buy that when I have overwatch? Nevermind..." That's when it's damaging the industry.

i agree. its like milk, just because i may have milk, dont mean i wont want a chocky milk. chocky milk is still good, even though its still milk. same as strawberry milk. and then we can go deep enough to when it becomes cake.
people should stop calling things clones as if thats a negative thing, cause although it may share some things, it can still be different, and can still be great on its own or even better.

The OP has taken more or less word for word from a Youtuber ( Skill Up )about it going like Lawbreakers. If anyone pays any attention to those type of reviews then how will a game be given a chance. Myself, I missed out on the Alpha and Beta due to work, but I am still getting it, seen lots of videos about the good and the bad, but until you actually play it how are you going to tell if it is good or not?
Yes it looks a little like Overwatch, as in some of the chars could be like a few from Overwatch, but it plays differently, this is Melee focused and only 4 v 4.
Roll on midnight ( I hope it is released then in the UK ) because my Son and me are ready to roll out.
See you out there. -

although i dont think this will be like sea of thieves or splatoon 1. sea of thieves lacked lots of content, all you could do in sea of thieves was sale and do the exact same missions over and over for no reason, sea of thieves was like a day z with less risk, wich just made it boring. completely different games. splatoon 1 i played but cant remember what happened to it, but id say its biggest problem was being a wii u exclusive
The problem for spat1 an SoT was lack of content. And I am pretty sure that Bleeding Edge will be the same.
Yeah the game is "little" and just starting but when people (reviewers, players) compare it with the content in Overwatch or Paladins, BE will be punished. Maybe is not fair the comparison but trust me it will happen.
I don't really know for sure but 5 maps, 2 modes and 12 characters? I hope Ninja Theory have more and update the game with more content like SoT or splat.Maybe Xbox Game Pass is the best for Bleeding Edge

The quote on quote "BETA" of this game has more content than SoT throughout its existance. And besides that, it's really fun and satisfying ! People will compare BE with Paladins and Overwatch, but as I have experienced both of them , Overwatch lacks the ability of customizing the characters, and Blizzard is really hard on trying to dictate a "correct" way to play the game, which leads to super toxic community. As for Paladins, I've played it over 1k hours and despite having great mechanics and gameplay, it's freaking broken ! You can't spend 5 minutes without encountering at least one gamebreaking bulls**t bug.
I have high hopes for this game. The formula works. They just need more support to add more content. And that would never happen if we just sit and play for ourselves ! We gotta tell our homies about this game, and they just need to take a look at the character designs to get hooked (As I did! ) -
@SilentParasite I enjoyed it a lot on both betas, but I just hope people will give it a chance. See you outhere, and cause chaos.

@Omid-RG I was pretty much sold when I saw the designs and saw the fighters, I knew I was going to main miko and cass immediately when I saw them.

The beta with 2 maps, 2 game modes and no skins has more than SoT? That is just sad.
About OW. It does not have hero customization on gameplay, but it has a lot of characters, all of them feels unique and it has a lot of maps, modes, skins, etc. And it is really pretty.
Paladins, is truly fun and it has +40 champions (not everyone of them are fun but 40 is a lot). Yeah it is so broken but it is f2p so at least you don't waste money if you don't want to. Its graphics are a little badThen Bleeding Edge. I tried playing with 3 friends. One of them likes OW and he said that BE is slow and he got bored. The other two liked it but they play fortnite, cod mw, apex, etc. Those games gets an update almost every 2 weeks so I am not sure if my friends will leave them for BE.
But the big day is tomorrow, let's see how it goes. I will invite my friends again, but I really think that a battle pass would be perfect to keep players coming -
You reminded me something when you said about your friend complaining that the game is "Slow". I absolutely adore the pacing of this game. Maybe it's kinda subjective, but I hate it when every character in overwatch can burst you down in a second, and you can also die to random shots and grenades that came from nowhere. In bleeding edge however, the time-to-kill is really high in 1v1, which rewards player for playing as a team. Because if the whole team is focusing on one enemy, that will lead to bursting them down in a few seconds. AND, this kind of pacing means you are not doomed as soon as you lost some of the objectives. Making a comeback is totally possible, and really satisfying.

hmm maybe splatoon 1 is a more accurate game to compare it to then, but still not SOT.
"Yeah the game is "little" and just starting but when people (reviewers, players) compare it with the content in Overwatch or Paladins, BE will be punished. Maybe is not fair the comparison but trust me it will happen."
i think people will compare it to overwatch and find it refreshing. it will probs be good for the game to be compared to overwatch. what does overwatch have that bleeding edge doesnt? more characters? well overwatch only has 1 new character, bleeding edge has 12 new characters. bleeding edge also adds a new playstyle. third person mele, rather than first person shooting. i think people will find it super refreshing and interesting. much more interesting than a game they have been playing for years and years.
now with splatoon, i just think it wasnt that interesting. plus it lacked content. splatoon 2 had enough content for it to do alright despite not being that interesting.
"I don't really know for sure but 5 maps, 2 modes and 12 characters? I hope Ninja Theory have more and update the game with more content like SoT or splat."
i feel like this kind of multiplayer game can survive a long time without constant updates. like overwatch wich will get a character around every 4 months.
even SOT is still alive although we have been talking about it. it recently got reviewed by ign again (not that they are accurate) but im sure its a good rating. SOT has become a good game and i certainly wouldnt call it dead.
Maybe Xbox Game Pass is the best for Bleeding Edge
and it is on game pass what you mean are you now saying it will be fine cause its so easily accessible. cheaper than overwatch?
Really? The beta with 2 maps
there are 4 maps
also il just say the content sea of thieves was lacking was content it needed to make it interesting.
what makes games like bleeding edge good isnt more skins, the main thing is battleing other players. its not as content heavy reliant.
thats just how games are, dif games rely on dif things. what kinda mmo is good when it lacks missions.
what kinda RPG is good with no role play elements. ya know.
bleeding edge is a battle game, and it has battles, a variety of them, in multile modes, with multiple characters on multiple maps. i think it will do fine.
"About OW. It does not have hero customization on gameplay, but it has a lot of characters, all of them feels unique and it has a lot of maps, modes, skins, etc."
as for modes, who really plays more than just quickplay and comp. the other modes are hardly played in comparison. also alot of people tend to chose mains in overwatch because the shooter aspect has soo much variety. you dont ever see people playing all the characters, only a small few. in bleeding edge, something is different, all the characters are fun to play and seem well ballanced.
"The other two liked it but they play fortnite, cod mw, apex, etc. Those games gets an update almost every 2 weeks so I am not sure if my friends will leave them for BE."
they already play so many games, whats 1 more gonna do. especially if they like it.
"I will invite my friends again, but I really think that a battle pass would be perfect to keep players coming"
i agree a battlepass would lock people in, but only temporarily. i dont think the game is completely ready for a battlepass yet though. lets give it some more time for it to gain more content in the game, before we start making people play 20 hours a day to unlock tier 100.

Thank you for your answer.
You are right in almost everything, I hope that BE will get a lot of players.
And I hope that my friends like it, games like this are more fun with friends -
@Votre-Daron This game is so laggy its literally unplayable i get kicked out matches because im lagging so bad and I have 200 mbs down and 50 mbps up
-
It depends on the country your from, and I believe they're trying to fix this issue, although not very sure.
-
@Votre-Daron ...It is heavily inspired by overwatch. I have played overwatch for many days and I can assure you the devs have as well. I don't like Blizzard anymore though so I hope this game grabs some more overwatch players.

I play Overwatch so I tried BE. I liked it and while BE is a good game, it certainly has a lot of issues, I guess that all the talk BE-OW is not doing a favor to this game, the reviews are bad in general, even the reviews from players. I guess a lot of people were expecting a lot of BE (like me), but it is not a huge proyect.
I played with mi friends 3 times now and they did not liked the game -
lol i have played overwatch for many years and i can assure you that overwatch isnt the only of its kind. there is paladins, overwatch, battleborn, and the OG TF2.
the devs originally intended the game to be like League and Dota. that kind of moba style game, but then it turned into a for honour kinda pvp objective based 3rd person fighter. while they may have been inspired by overwatch, i wouldnt say they were heavily inspired by overwatch
"the reviews are bad in general, even the reviews from players. I guess a lot of people were expecting a lot of BE"
the reviews are mostly positive. only 25 percent negative reviews wich is really good for a new game like this. so what are you on about lol? you talking about overwatch reviews?
and what do you mean alot of people were expecting a lot of BE? do you mean people where expecting alot from bleeding edge?
why didnt your friends like the game?
