Battleborn Day queue!

Hmm. If we did this, it would probably have to land with the next major patch.

Ideas for titles you’d like to wear? “Battleborn Day Vet”?

Err, what’s this Battleborn Day, and when it is?

As for the queue I’d see it featuring good ol’ Battleborn beta classics, no voting, but a global chat so ppl could discuss stuff during matches. And some nostalgic commemorating title “inspired by” (like “Badass”) would be nice.

This is not something that’s going to happen in Battleborn. We made a commitment early on that the game is about leveling within a match.

Possible, I think.

Gravity would be tricky, but fun. Cooldown and speed are possible, I think. [quote=“Kaleidodemon, post:17, topic:1549990”]
One crazy idea would be a mode where the map is random as is the character you are given.

We’re looking into this now. Neat idea. Could end with some awkward match-ups, though.

I think that’s half the fun! It takes away the stress to show off how good you are on a character when everyone knows it was randomly assigned to you. Blundering around through a map with other people unfamiliar with their character could be a lot of fun and help bring about more friendships/communication within the community (hopefully).

Ah, I forgot about this.

This makes me incredibly happy. Thank you! What about… hmm. The only real idea is the one I came up with a while ago about being able to choose extra levels with more helices (repeats of levels to choose more) on occasion but there’s absolutely no chance something like that is programmed in. (This would include exp being probably 1.8 times higher to compensate though)

That’s not something we can do quickly, for an event. But, increasing experience rate or starting at a higher level are probably things we could do.

And I may actually try El Dragon >.<

You could make several things for it into shift codes so those who can’t make it can still have some participation.

Phoebe dominates that map! Ults at the spawns for days, with 2.5x damage on an AOE melee. You can outheal the damage you take just because you kill things for health drops so fast.

I have a crazy idea, how about we (at a start of a campaign mission or multiplayer) start off at level 10 and try to get to level 20

Let me explain this clearer, basically we start off at level 10. That’s where we can get all of the helix options up to level 10. But during the game you can still gain experience and go past 10, resetting your progress back to level 1 (level 11) but you still got your previous helix upgrades you choose. And so you can choose even more helix upgrades which I believe would be fun with all the crazy combinations of helix upgrades up to level 20 (which will be the new maximum level for the duration of battleborn day)

A chance for an exclusive title is a HUGE incentive. I know of at least ten friends who would play just for a title alone.

I wouldn’t mind as much if when the thing I’ve been grinding for dropped it was max roll. So since Battleborn Day is a special event I would like it if they gave RNGJesus the day off and make all legendaries max roll. I’ve suffered enough at the hands of RNGJesus that anything less would be a waste of my time.

well you have talked about Capture Extreme and a fully leveled Ghalt only gametype that got you hooked.

I promoted this event on my site and on my youtube channel. getting some feedback on bonus XP, credits, (legendary) loot, Free Platinum for 1 skin & play with Devs.

Please don’t expand on this tantalizing information. I want to think that this may one day be a possibility now.

Good to know. This sounds fun. Shards and build cost are gonna be fuuuuuuun!

I didn’t play him for a while but then I played him for about 10 matches about and then got two quads and a penta, so my tune has changed lol. Prenerf ofc

Discounted packs and/or double credits. That’s all I care about.

Haha, I made a thread about this a few months ago and put it in a post above. Great minds think alike!

PVP ideas:
-Minion gear drops

-Gear rewards for finishing a PVP match

-Faction wars queue, maybe instead of maps the two teams vote on the Faction they want to play as either have everyone stuck with the same faction or each team votes best 3 out of 5 for the faction they want.

-Access to all the skins and Taunts for a day, if we can’t get Platinum from packs or such. I would like to actually see the skins from playing to decide whether I want to buy them or not.

-Also double or triple:
XP, credits, and loot drops

After hearing some of the other suggestions, i think itd be fun if you allowed the random drops (+speed, +cooldown, erc) from pve to drop in pvp, from bots and/or players- now THATD be interesting! especially if you increased the minion waves to keep everyone busy, that way it doesnt turn into purely pvp from the massive amounts of skills that would be used.
