Battleplan #10: 7/14/16

There was no mention on that except for the broadcaster mode.

I think they just like slapping the label “exclusive” on everything before it goes public. Kinda like junk food with “original” or “classic”.

I’m sorry, but unless that Coca-Cola™ is made with real cocaine, it’s neither classic nor original…

Seriously though, words have definitions for a reason GBX. Just stop with the exclusive nonsense and stick with “Free” or “Early Access”. Both of those accurately describe everything you pretend is exclusive, even though you know full well that label is nothing but fetid cow manure.

[Quote]Hero Balancing: Ongoing
As we gather data from matches and mission, we’ll continue to adjust and refine hero balance in the game. You can expect a bigger adjustment to 24 of the 26 characters likely coming in the next couple of weeks.[/quote]

Hmm…I hope you are correct, I am tired of playing UP Deande lol

We’re having conversations internally about splitscreen, but I don’t have any news at this time.


Also, in regards to the update, we’re getting close and we hope to have more concrete details soon.

The great thing about Broadcaster Tools is that it’s not just about “eSports”. This is an awesome addition that will allow content creators, whether they be streamers, YouTubers, etc., the ability to take their productions to the next level. I don’t want to over hype it, but it’s really cool and we’re looking forward to to showing you guys more later today.

Don’t worry, I’m feeling really good about my 000.3% prediction rate. I have rarely predicted anything right, but this, this I have a good feeling with.

If not, I hope Gearbox will SHED SOME LIGHT on this.

You’re definitely right to be hesitant as it’s all speculation until it happens. But there’s enough contextual evidence to believe it is happening and the next patch will be huge!

Sadly I will miss up deande.

Woo! Excited to see the new maps!!

Even more excited to wreck on some PvE missions this weekend. :smile_cat:

Nice to see another event. I’ve been meaning to jump back into pve for a while now to get some lore challenges done so this will just make that even more rewarding. I don’t know what algorithm is managing loot drops but I have serious trouble getting rare/epic attack speed and attack damage gear, maybe my luck will change this weekend as I don’t need any more epic reload speed.

Not a criticism as you all are doing a good job, but I have to admit I’m anxious for news of the July patch as well.

Alright, well I’m looking forward to the weekend.

Bit miffed that the SP skins are essentially the same pallete as other characters already have. Instead of y’know, atleast getting some of the T2 skins for free.

I hear you. Maybe I wasn’t clear:

  • Broadcasting Tools are fine. Yay for YT /Twitch peeps!
  • Bluntly: please drop the word “eSports” from your vocabulary. At least for now.

These are not mutually exclusive.

Hmm… He used the word “esports” to answer someone’s question that used “esports” which he said it’s more for “content creators”. Kinda sounded mean with that “bluntly: take esports out if your vocabulary” comment

Maybe I was a tad blunt. I was referencing the original Battleplan. And I mean Gearbox in general needs to table notions of eSports awesomeness until some fundamental things get addressed. Not @JoeKGBX in particular needing to literally stop using a word. My bad.

I’m not even gotta say that im shocked becase I saw this coming… If thats the quality of the skins that we can expect with the sp (more recolors) then the fear is real… What a waste of 20 bucks…

About the rest nothing is point out or have an ETA so we could resume this as another pointless plan.

With this I’m going to save myself the pain and uninstall the game since I need the space on my Xone

See ya when it’s f2p like Evolve, to get my awesome ‘Early Moron Pass Holder Tag’. Have a niceday…

Oh yea, hope so too. Hope the big patch later this month brings the much needed change. One can only hope, can’t wait though

If you go into your match history and look at it. It will update your match. Found that out by accident when it happened to me. Hope that helps

Was miko ninja nerfed?

it isnt just an esports thing. i play private matches and i play tournaments. this is an awesome addition for me and at least 15 other people on my friends list, and im just one guy. i respect the people that just play casually, but some of us play this game competitively

I don’t know why people are getting upset that the SP skins are recolors. They are the FIRST skins that are being given out. We are still early in the game’s life. There is a ton of content still yet to be released. I feel like expectations are crazy from some people. Not to mention, until all of the gold skins and cyber skins have been released, it should not be a surprise that these are being given out.

Compared to most season pass cost:expected content, the Battleborn Season Pass seems like it will be worth it, but y’all need to be patient and not lose hope so easily.

Anyway, I think lowering the attack damage gear is a good move. I have one in almost all of my loadouts because it feels like an obvious choice. This should get me to shake things up a bit. I’m very excited that the Critical Hit and Skill Damage gear has been buffed. Also, looking forward to the stream and seeing new maps.
