TT___TT itās seven days away. so close, so far.
I really hope they fixed the crashes at the start of a pvp match and am a little upset that the did not comment on such a heavy bug that has so many reports in this forum alone, there was barely any response after the open beta about anything they change to the release.
You state this yet you are forgetting companies dont release it for one set of contries sooner than the othwr because they wanna release it on the same time as everyone even if it happens to be a day later for new zealand and australia its because they want everyone to start initially together if australian games get it the day before they already have a days worth of play and have an advantage.
You know, this gameās PvP isnāt really about seeking enemies and destroying them. Obviously, you can, cause duh, but there is an objective. So, you donāt have to be an aggressive player to play PvP, you can just focus on guiding, defending the minions. You can also use a support character, meaning you can just heal teammate while they get the kill.
What Iām trying to say is, donāt shut down PvP just because you arenāt the best in other games, try it on a role where you arenāt force to get kills, or you feel comfortable. I for one, didnāt want to play PvP because in other games -cough-Destiny-cough- everytime I was on a streak, Iād get bombarded with messages saying I was hacking, when I was having a bad games, Iād get called scrub. The messages didnāt really bother me but playing PvE felt less stressful than PvP.
Anyway, those are my two cents. I really like the PvP side of Battleborn. Incursion is definitely my favorite mode since it makes me feel back on League.
I feel as though there should be some clarification: Iām not trying to dis PvP so Iām sorry if it came off that way. I tend to have more fun playing PvE in video games. Iām still going to play PvP and will most likely enjoy it a great deal, but Iāll probably be more inclined to play campaign more often because it offers an atmosphere I personally enjoy more.
So if my maths are correct us Aussies get to play start playing at 2pm on the 3rd?
If I die for some reason before May 3rd Iām going to be super pissed off
Depends what US time zone they use. I suspect Pacific time to be used like they did with beta.
my ps4 says itās 3 days 8 hours away. for reference itās 2:47 at gmt-6 so im guessing midnight play is a thing.
It is completely fair. Everyone gets to play the game at the same time (assuming you bought digital) And besides, the company is based in USA and therefore they cater to the USA market and audience. If you want a game ahead of the rest of the world, then start your own gaming co. in your country and release your game based on your countriesā timezone. Not the rest of the worlds fault that Australia doesnāt have a gaming industry.
Last thoughts? Dunno what your taking about in this thread but -
When I get my Reyna back I will kick some butt, and it wonāt even be her final form!
@LadAussie Do you think the ameriacan house wives will let Gearbox staff work at 2am?
Good luck twisting Gearbox staffs arms on this Topic. 
@Uz3r013 If I owned a Game company I would do either of two things.
-
I would stagger the turning on of servers country by country based on the given time per country.
-
I would give out Street relase dates correcty ajusted to be the correct Truth for that countys time zone.
Game companys need to learn that people take out law suits for companys giving out misleading information. It amazes me no one group has as yet did this. All it takes is one good law suit win and every single game company will pull there soxs up. The mentatity is well its never happend before so we will not take action to change. Game companys are not shelling out extra money to pervent things that have not taken place yet. Human nature is blind Iām sure of it.
That is where you are wrong. They release the info that they do with the understanding they will use American Time zones considering that is where the majority of the Audience is. Staggering of release isnt done because then it would give some people an advantage over others as it releases throughout the day. like Australia getting the game 16 hours before Americans do. 16 hours makes a huge difference
@zarzar_96 That is a matter for courts to decide not any one game company.
You got nothing to worry about me Iām just bringing up a Topic. But as silly as I am this issue is as plan as anything for me to see. Good luck to game companys in the future.
I do hope some one who seeās they can make a lot of money out of this picks up the Ball and runs with it and they better be a busness with money backing themā¦ I will speak no more on this. Bye
I wonder who the five new heroes are. Seeing as we havenāt seen them yet, I am a bit worried that they will not have been tested accordingly and be either too strong (see Galilea or Ambra) or too weak (Foxtrot).
Looking forward to the launch!
The five new characters wonāt be available at launch, theyāve just been planned, making up part of the free post-launch content (along with things like new maps, new modes, etc). Theyāll be coming in one at a time, since like you say, it takes a ton of work to design and test a new character and properly fit them into the existing mix. And thatās on top of all that easy stuff like animation, effects and a nailing down a thousand lines of voice over. 
The first of them is named Alani, an Eldrid waterbender monk type girl, who you can read a bit about here. 
Awesome, I was bit worried that they all would have launched together without really a proper testing by the players.
Good news!
