102020393023445948594 2,223 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Shameless Blackout clone with SJW characters and a baby art-style. EA is fucking hopeless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JonDnD 2,699 Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Looks like this one has no solo ,on team of 3 so I'll probably never play it again . Gameplay is fun and I think it's the best looking of the BR games . BR games just aren't for me . I'd play this if it was solos Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hot Sauce 2,743 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 Not a big fan of being able to be resurrected, but it'll be interesting to see how that changes the BR formula. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I actually like it a lot. There's a pretty limited time of it being available. I think it's like 60 seconds after dying someone can come grab your remains. Leads to some interesting situations/decisions of whether it's worth the risk. Also allows you to bait the other team out if you're able to pick off a straggler. I played 6 or 7 games last night. It's solid for sure. I don't know how much time I'll invest in it since it's not the greatest solo experience and only a couple of my friends really mess with BRs (or games in general tbh lol), but if you had a 3 man team it seems like it'd be the BR to play.

JonDnD 2,699 Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 They would be be silly to not at solos . I think this game will be a hit . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How often would you say it's successful, both ressing you/your teammates and from seeing opponents res their teammates? And how long is an average game? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And how long is an average game? I only saw it happen once honestly so really hard to gauge. I'm sure if you're on a solid coordinated team you could pull it off more frequently. End of the day though, you have to earn it so I don't mind it. Average game is maybe 15-20 minutes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As long as some meta doesn't establish where resses just end up extended the game a lot. It's an interesting wrench in the game plans for most battle royale matches and eliminates that asshole dude that just finishes off a downed guy instead of trying to survive because he's getting wrecked.

I think the point of the rezes is that the game really seems balanced around 3v3 fights. It's why that's the only mode available and you can only pick 1 of each class per team. Another thing I'd say is, not allowing rezes can sometimes extend a game unneccessarily. For example, if 3 of your squad dies in Fortnite, you basically have no chance of winning the game normally. That can result in someone just hiding, extending the game for no good reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Competitive battle royale as is is a joke. 23 minutes ago, Casual said: Another thing I'd say is, not allowing rezes can sometimes extend a game unneccessarily.

Sure, but that still applies to Apex Legends, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,990 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) I played a few matches, my squad actually won during my 2nd one. That was really intense and fun. I think the default key binding has some issues on pc, having to use the middle mouse button to ping might discourage people from using that mechanic, It would be more intuitive if it were Q like in BF. But outside of that the game is a good distraction. I’m not sure how much long term appeal it will have for me though, I enjoyed PUBG and Fortnite for a few weeks but barely touched them afterwards.
