Battleborn Marketplace Update

You left out player C who has both the time and money. At this point they’ll be well ahead of player B and player A will be so far out it’s not even worth mentioning.

Boom Cyber Headshot

Dude this is too much to read. I was just on late last night and there’s so many posts lol.

So Idk if the patch is to blame or if people are leaving Battleborn because of all this drama but I haven’t been able to play Incursion nor Meltdown most of the day. Ps4.

Did everyone get fed up and leave? I mean I am upset about all this and have posted my thoughts on the matter but it seems like more than coincidence that there’s no one online at the busiest times (in my experience) of the day. Literally have waited over an hour to play either incursion(40mins) or meltdown(35 mins) just now.

Has the patch or marketplace ruined the game this quick?

Man Gearbox is really going to make a lot of money from those 843 In-Game players at peak hours on PC!

I did mention it in another post if you check. :slight_smile:
Player C may have the time and money but it’s not worth paying for boosters as he can easily achieve the unlocks without. As someone who is command rank 100, Master of Reyna and well on the way to others I won’t be buying boosters (assuming they implement them after the negative feedback), it won’t be hard for me to achieve the rest at no additional financial cost.

I have 6 mastered characters 9 characters lore complete waiting for me to 15 them but at this point I’m waiting for double xp. I would buy boosters to shorten up that time and I’m currently sitting around 300 hours played and only 9 achieves left to go on Xbox one Toby and galilea are going to be my slowest going.

Do not put additional loadouts behind a paywall.

Boosters will only be acceptable if and when this game goes F2P, or in order to help put late adopters on equal footing months down the road.

I will never find loot packs for sale with platinum acceptable.

After I updated the game I’m not seeing the MTs so I think that they are reworking the complete system?

As per the Battleborn blog, the marketplace change only goes live tomorrow, as in, June 16th.

Here they say with the today update.

Update was today, micro trans are added June 16th

… but today is the 14th.

Time zones, it’s already the 15th for me :wink:

If its just for skins and taunts loadouts and bank pages I am ok with that. But credits too? I am not ok with this game becoming a pay-to-win game, If you give people a credit bonus that is essentially what your doing. All of us that put time in one pack at a time to get epic packs and you wanna give people who have money more in game currency to get the gear others have worked so hard for?

Would rather see matchmaking get changed to make it so teams are more balanced instead of steamrolling teams 1000 vs 10 in Capture or 500 vs 25 in Meltdown. Yesterday I was teamed up with 4 lvl 100’s and I am 100 myself and it put us up against a team who’s highest lvl was 6. Its that type of steamrolling at that kills lower levels and makes them quit playing.

Its becoming more and more apparent to me buying the DD version was just a big waste of money, thanks for taking me like a fool Gearbox making me spend extra money on content that was released for everyone and we don’t even get the new skins? I feel like I just left the car dealership.

The DD version skins are separate from MTs skins.

So no way to earn this currency? Purely cash? Please, say “No you can earn Platinium by doing A or B”

Give an incentive to grind a bit, I don’t mind did it in a lot of games to earn stuff. Micro transactions should be used to speed up the grind not the sole function. Disappointed hope you correct it or well guess I’m done with the game.

Personally, I think players who bought the game should be given an equivalent amount of platinum or maybe a little less.

Base game on release ($60) would equal almost 10,000 plat which I understand is high so maybe lower the amount of platinum to a degree as your players have already been able to experience your game for several weeks.

Just my two cents as it is somewhat of a ripoff to add additional content weeks after a game’s release and even the players who spent $75 aren’t included.
