>“Crucible” is an attempt to fuse the chaos of a hero shooter with the pacing and strategy of a multiplayer online battle arena, like “League of Legends.” And much like “Fortnite” distilled the satisfaction of loot grinds to a single match.
>Every game mode will feature planetary threats, living up to the promise Bioware’s “Anthem” never met. In “Crucible,” certain stage events could happen that could tip the scales of the game.
>As a setting, the planet Crucible is as vibrant and colorful as any of the interstellar maps we’ve gotten in other games like “Destiny,” just bigger and wider to accommodate the enemies and the superpowers. The game’s map size seems to be a compromise between the arenas in “Destiny” (in a mode also called “Crucible”) and Halo’s Big Team Battle maps.
>“From a gamer standpoint, being able to read the situation is something we took seriously,” Stansell said. “But it also works in terms of streaming, being able to quickly understand from a watchability standpoint. We wanted to create characters that were earnest, someone the audience could connect to.”
>“Crucible” is a standout in character animation, even compared to Blizzard’s celebrated work in games like “Overwatch.” Facial animations on Rahi, a South Asian short-range player equipped with lasers, tell stories about his friendship with his robo-buddy Brother, and how they seem to have a symbiotic, dependent relationship.

It won't be though, amazon will keep it on life support indefinitely, it will always be promoted on twitch and it will probable be written into partners contracts that they have to stream a minimum amount of game play every week so it gets the braindead people who watch their streams to play it.

Are they aware the monetization strategy of this shit (esports) is duping retards into giving people sponsorships?
Surely they should since they own twitch.
Then again they gave a lying otherkin tranny free reign over the Banhammer
At least I can say they sort of tried a new thing with the aesthetic instead of ripping the TF2 look lazily slapped on another theme

Remember when game devs used to care about making a cohesive art style instead of throwing pop culture into a blender and smearing the resulting shitty concoction all over the wall? Sadly I would like a proper team-based shooter, or arena shooter with good team modes. The 8v8 mode they mentioned for this game is the first step in the right direction I've seen since the cancer that is Overwatch took the industry by storm with its 5v5 garbage.

pepperidge farms remembers
TLDR:alert:
the definition of cancer: a cell replicating out of control. displacing and replacing any distinguishable functional cells with samefagging offsprings that are twisted versions of uncorrupted cells that should have died long ago and are now turning a vibrant body into a twisted amorpous version of itself, a gray tumor blob without distinguishable features.
assfaggots, overcrotch, league of legends, (insert random chinkshit) fagnite, etc. are the actuall definition of cancer: a self sustaining gray substance bleeding everywhere replacing anything original. that should have died of long ago, its the gamerversion of shitty sonic OCs
a heartcell would inmediately look out of place next to a braincell.both are unique and cannot cross over into another invironment without becoming completely incompatible cancercells are interchangable,
if you took abe from oddworld and toss him into final fantasy 7, or command and conguer tiberian sun, he would look completely out of place.
if you took any character from any of the asscancer games and exchange them between these games. no character would stand out, their looks can all be described in a single word: plastic collectible action figures.
take a look at the picture OP posted. see that fat tree guy wielding the bigass gun??? thats the next mutation of groot the tree guy. thats cancer morphing him into a grotesque version of a mediocre OC that in itself is a mutation of the tree-people from LOTR. the gun the captain/shepherd/starlord mulatto is wielding is a mutation of the same cancerous alien sniper gun you see popping up in games since halo 2 only more abstract. at this point you can just draw a character wielding a folded umbrella, slap a small tube on top of it and it would be unironacly be considered a OG snipergun.
the animal wielding a gun with his robo sidekick schtick is a mutation from raccoon from guardians of the galaxy meets ratchet&clank.
they should rename this game Asscancer: The next mutation and have it declared dead on the coroners cutting table.
(pictures are from ps1 games all released in the timespan of a single year. i hope any fuckwad working on this game or any cancerfaggots game lurking this thread will learn what originality looks like)

This reminds me of that shitty game made by the Project M devs. Icons, I always forget the name, but it suffers from the same. The only reason it works for Smash Bros. is because they are already beloved franchises and because Smash is a party game. These faggots want that sweet esports money, and just like everyone else before them, it's doomed to fail.
>mfw when character design is literally the same as Icons
>>16937953
I agree. And even then, despite being a good game, Blizzard pulled the plug because it didn't appeal to esports faggots.

Is it really surprising when you look at the art designers of recent games? Planetside 2 with that faggot T-ray, Paladins with the literal furfaggot who is Thunderbrush, who decided "hmm, for this dragon theme, let me give this guardian/knight character a fucking fat bara dragon skin instead of a dragon knight skin"
Yeah there's T&A but they all rely on the HUD elements differentiating teams instead of the actual art design.

No, I enjoy them, it's just that the design of the character looks like something I would expect a complete amateur to make using inferior tools (most people who use SFM seem to agree it's a pain to animate in). Plus the head part of the model looks like a normal head just scaled down. It doesn't look like a lot of time was taken to consider the design of the head and how it connects to the body, which would work well in a five-second visual gag, but not as a recurring character in your hero shooter.

I actually played Midair and enjoyed it briefly because it was faithful to classic Tribes' jetpack mechanics. Then I realized that their unlock system is EVEN MORE CANCEROUS than Ascend's. Hey buddy, new to the game? Here, why don't you play the class with the least amount of armor which is most suited towards flag running, which you need to know all the maps to be any good at? Want to play something else? Go fuck yourself. Good idea guys, way to win over all of those whining faggots who couldn't figure out the jetpack controls (Stop holding W you fucking morons).

Unfortunately I never got to play GA because I never knew it was inspired by Tribes until it was already turned to shit from misguided updates.
I wouldn't say that Ascend was less intuitive, but classic jetpack controls aren't much more difficult. Midair's tutorial was rather shit and didn't even make an effort to explain the vectored thrust controls which boil down to "stop pressing a direction button if you want to gain altitude you fucking idiot." They just had a rudimentary hallway with some jumps and vague messages. I felt like classic Tribes taught you this instantly because it was absolutely impossible to get in most of the map bases from ground level unless you spent all your jetpack energy gaining altitude.
The annoying thing about Ascend was that it was literally gated or governed like a go kart for kids. Speed caps on everything, we can't allow players to have too much fun. The most satisfying thing to me is being able to pull off shit like curved trajectories while maintaining high speed and subtly juke people by applying vectored thrust. It's like half of a combat flight sim merged with a team-based shooter.

I haven't played a Hi-rez game for the past 2 years now but keeping up with them is a hilarious experience.
Like did you know that, because they wanted to implement crossplay and have the same console/PC balance versions of Paladins, they had to gimp movement because lol FPS controllers. While doing that they completely fucked up jumping height so that jumping over obstacles was impossible. To fix that they decided to take the laziest route possible and just have your jump height double when there's something directly in front of you, which pretty much went against their attempts to ruin mobility.
Or how adding a visual, completely cosmetic jump button to Smite completely broke the game with animation cancels, physics/collision bugs and whatnot?

You missed a lot. In particular, after the 8kun administration banned loli site-wide a month ago, along with other issues like 8kun's technical problems and the site owner not seeming to care about any users besides the Qboomers, 8kun/v/ migrated to the /v/ on Fatchan with well-functioning board software and a board owner who seemed reasonable. Fatchan went down a week or so later but most people didn't come back here. Currently we're mostly split between 8chan.se/v/, which is run by Mark and runs LynxChan, and zchan.cc/v/ which is run by the former fat/v/ board owner and uses JSChan like Fatchan did.
Longer version: Mark stickied an open letter calling out the 8kun administration for various issues, including them not migrating loli boards as a form of soft-censorship. They both fired him and removed him as /v/ board owner. Ron said they would migrate loli boards in 2 weeks after switching servers, but first he would talk to 2 lawyers to make sure it was completely safe legally. Mark makes a /v/ on the webring board fatchan.org as a potential migration target, but after sperging super-hard and deleting a bunch of posts from even people defending him he deletes the whole board. The fat/v/ board is claimed by some anonymous Italian guy. Acid Man begins working on his own site, meant to be a proper sucessor to 8chan. A week later after talking to 1 lawyer 8kun administration apparently decides it's legally risky based on an obscenity law that has never been applied to any website despite many other sites hosting loli or selling it commercially without problems. 8kun bans loli site-wide, not just loli boards, posting it now gets you a permaban from the whole site. People begin to migrate en-masse to the /v/ on fatchan.org. Every /v/ volunteer but 1 resigns in protest. Several other boards migrate to sites on the webring or have board-owners removed after they post loli in protest or sticky calls for migration. Fatchan is great and is very popular with users, with a /v/ board owner who seems decent and based on JSChan which functions well unlike 8kun. /v/ sucessfully pulls off a full migration, 8kun drops to single-digit PPH that are all in the meta thread while fat/v/ picks up everyone. Someone who has been emailing every service provider for every imageboard trying to get them shut down gets Voxility, which was providing Fatchan's host with anycast service, to blackhole the site, apparently based on them hosting a dead /pol/ with a couple dozen posts total. Rather than switching to not using anycast and using a single server in the U.S. instead, and concerned about his host potentially getting blacklisted by Voxility even if he isn't using anycast himself anymore, the Fatchan owner shuts down the site. Anons scatter, largely unwilling to return to 8kun and unsure of where to go. Acid Man has launched 8chan.se at this point (Mark provided half the funding and runs /v/ but is not part of the administration) but coincidentally his DDOS-protection VanwaTech is doing infrastructure upgrades so his site was having severe technical issues at the time. For a while people were divided between Julay, 8chan/v/, 8chan/vg/ (the Mark-free alternative with a new board owner), and people reluctantly posting on 8kun. Continued:

Shortly before Fatchan went down, the Julay site owner declares he wants to get rid of most of the boards except a handful in 3 months and they should make their own bunkers. Some time later julay/v/ has some drama about the board owner locking thread about the Last of Us leaks for a variety of bizarre reasons including believing that they're too much like GG threads. Meanwhile the 8chan/vg/ board owner accidentally deletes the whole board by fat-fingering the "Delete Board" button and checkbox when looking at the administration panel on his phone. It gets recreated but with the existing threads gone, and is now completely dead. The julay/v/ board owner decides to take a break for a week under the pressure of people complaining about his moderation, and makes the board owner of julay/v/ some guy who is the board owner of some boards like /japan/ and is known for only deleting illegal content. One of the Julay global volunteers is so retarded that he thinks loli is banned outside julay/delicious/, and that /delicious/ is not accessible except via Tor, because that was the case weeks ago when a registrar complained and they had to switch registrars, even though they had already fixed it and /delicious/ has been public for weeks. He starts global banning people for loli on /v/, which cause a revolt. Eventually the site owner comes back and tells him he's being retarded. Meanwhile someone takes advantage of the chaos to spam CP and "child model" stuff. The global volunteer who made the fuckup regarding loli says global volunteers shouldn't help the board owner clean up the "child images" in IRC. The new board owner interprets that as him not wanting to help clean up even CP. The new board owner threatens to delete the board. Julay's registrar takes down their main domain, possibly because of the CP spam and because they're running an old version of LynxCHan that doesn't purge images immediately when you delete the post, so people can post CP, delete their own posts or let them be deleted, and then report direct links to the images even if the post is gone. Julay is accessible from the Tor domain or alternative domain spqrchan.xyz. /k/, one of the boards that wasn't going to be removed, migrates to anon.cafe. The new /v/ board owner sees the site owner has made the global volunteer who fucked up a site administrator for some reason, and deletes julay/v/. Julay is taken down while /v/ is restored from backup, and the site owner gives the board to a friend of the guy who deleted it. After a couple days the new board owner gives it to the guy who deleted it and he deletes it again. Meanwhile, the /animu/ bunker Prolikewoah has created /geimu/, but it is intended to have a distinct identity rather than being a general /v/. Someone launches Zchan.cc, a new JSChan-based site that allows pretty much anything legal but requires permission for board creation. Someone asks him if he would be willing to host fat/v/, warning him he might have to switch companies if any of them cave to angry emails, and he agrees. The fat/v/ board owner is contacted and asked if he would be willing to come back as board owner, and he agrees as well, so the board is transferred to him. Yesterday julay/v/ was restored again under a new board owner, but seems to be completely dead and currently has 0 PPH.

Who would have thought discussing video games on the internet could be this difficult?

It throws me for a fucking loop. I just wanted to discuss MMO's with people who didn't run on two braincells.
