Lack of gamemodes

Oh dont get me wrong, i love the game but time to time overgross and every PvP map exept capture/faceoff is a mirror map.

In ow one side changes the feelings of the map, thats all. If we ever get an orde mode or something like that we could use some asymetrical maps.

Correction: in ow both sides roles are scripted. Game tells you what you do and when, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
More over: you don’t actually need asymetric map to make gameplay ā€œrole basedā€, CS being one example. I could even go as far as to say that Blizz orders his casuals around, yet I’ll wont, coz it’s too simplistic approach.

In Bb you have the same conditions and map content for both sides, just you decide how you use your resources and when - some kind of sandbox isn’t it? Yes, the maps are ā€œmirrorsā€, but the course of action isn’t: you siege, you sabotage, you defend, play to win by k/d ratio or by protecting minions, you play safe to win by points or by total domination, all change dynamically during the course of action, heck you can even surrender.
More over: those simple ā€œmirriorsā€ actually do exactly the same as those meticulously ā€œprogramedā€ maps in Ow, but more, well, naturally: you do have choke points, you do get your win more problematic as you progress due to two stages of progress, and yes, you also have crucial power-up points of interests, just non of this options are side exclusive, or even mandatory. One could even say, Bb maps’ design is more…demanding.

Ok.

I guess i just want more visualy interesting maps

That’s true. The player population for Battleborn isn’t too great either

The thing is there are some good gamemodes, It’s just the maps, they seem to repeat over and over. If you’re new to the game then sure there’s quite a bit, but if you’ve been playing for a while, you’ve played each map at least 20 times.

I’m gonna re-state what I was trying to get at. There’s not really a lack of game modes, but it would just be more… interesting if there were. Because to be honest after playing just five matches in one game session it gets a bit boring.

What’s more boring - playing with different players on well known maps/gamemodes, or having more gamemodes and waiting for +30 mins in any queue?

Incursion:
There’s so little remaining real estate, this is where they set up base or sell it to LLC chumps for their factories.
Capture:
They capture energy used to power ships and such.
Meltdown:
They’re stuck with a tyrannical magnus who wants to kill them.
Face Off:
Varelsi resurgence. In order to close the portal, Boldurs programming (hitting the machine) made it so it runs off Varelsi faces. If you don’t have 500, you get ducked in and fight more Varelsi.
All but Faceoff are canon, my description for Faceoff was just the most logical choice
