OB64 was also released around the time that Star Wars Battlefront 2's controversy was reaching it's height which made things even worse. To make a VERY long story short, OB64 basically made casual play Pay to Win as it'd take months on end to get all your cards up to max level unless you paid for it, with competitive play neutering certain champions as some need their cards to be cranked out in order to be effective with a certain playstyle as they'd affect things like distance traveled or speed and not just things like CDR or something. The game's gotten healthier since last year, but I'd say the biggest offender was Open Beta 64, which was a thing around November 2017 and was removed sometime in February 2018. The game doesn't tell you this, but it's mostly to get you adjusted on how the game plays on the basic level.Īs for why the game hasn't taken off, it's mostly been due to very stupid decisions from upper management. Just a heads up, the first five account levels are all bot matches. I would still prefer such a story, since the new lore isn't going anywhere anytime soon, and all the little bits of information made for interesting connections between characters. All the champions before Maeve had a charm to them the ones after didn't, which was helped by how unknown the stories plot was then, allowing a lot of experimentation and mystery. I'd say every champion after Maeve steadily decreased in quality, with bumps here and there like Moji, Dredge, and Imani. With some story they would be better, but Hi-Rez wasn't even ready to leave beta so there isn't much to the lore besides confusion, while I'm sure Overwatch will release two or three shorts giving their Ashe an interesting story compared to the non-existent cardboard Ash.Īnd that's only listing the three biggest offenders. All one-sided characters who act out their only defining trait. Of the three I listed, there's nothing more to them. Ashe is the embodiment of Emo no-fucks-given if it were cardboard with a canon, Lian is anime princess whose whole role is advancing herself to queen or something, and Vivian is just a snake who can't go five minutes without reminding everyone their all pawns to her in whatever game she plays. They're new character ashe is a straight copy of lian and vivian.īetter to have a generic personality than none. It hurts me even more that overwatch is copying Paladins now and getting away with it because Blizzard. The game officially shut down in the summer of 2018 so you cant even play it any more. After weeks of no pay, they finished it, just for it to be labeled as an overwatch clone. showed up the next day like nothing ever happened, without pay. While in development, the company ran out of money so they had to abandon the project and lay off all of the workers. The objective was completely unique to that game and the gameplay felt much different.
They refused to played for the simple reason that its labeled as a Overwatch clone.Īnother game called Gigantic, a game I felt that was way better than Paladins and overwatch combined, was closed down for the very reason of being called an overwatch clone. I myself am still in school and once I tried to get my friends into Paladins. Therefore creating the false idea that Paladins is just an overwatch clone piggyback riding off on overwatch's success. Imo the biggest reason why this game never took off like overwatch did, is because overwatch was released first. You end up losing the match to your trash teammate and the enemy hard carrying. While the enemy seems to have this one player who is way better than you and seems like a pro. When you get better at this game, you will start to realize that you are getting paired with lower skilled players that dont seem to know what they're doing. The game is incredibly frustrating and I often take weeks off of it because of another big problem: Match making.
#PALADINS FORTNITE CLONE PATCH#
I later came back in 1.1 when the game fully released, and the OB64 patch was completely reverted. As a f2p myself I kept losing games over and over until I had enough.
You might ask, what made them leave? Well it was the pay2win system added. There are some character like maeve which either dominate the meta, or are complete trash.ĭuring Open Beta patch 64, otherwise known as OB64, a good majority of players left the game, including myself.
There are many many many many many many bugs in the game that have been there since closed beta.
