There’s a nice ambiguity to the word Battleborn - excuse me, slickly-animated FPS avatar, but were you delivered as a newborn right onto the battlefield, or do you simply consider it the site of your spiritual rebirth as a true warrior? Ambiguity is good, because we haven’t had much else to mull over in regard to Gearbox’s MOBA-y new shooter.
The Borderlands studio have kept their feature-set closely guarded - but Take-Two have let slip a couple of details about the arena FPS, with the promise of more to come at E3. Read and Comment

This and Overwatch are kind of doing the exact same thing, and I think Overwatch looks better and more interesting.

over watch is more similar to team fortress 2 series . this is completely different in that you Battle with friends against an AI threate's /villain's & wipe out their hords. Where as with over watch it's you & a team versus another player & his /her team in match's til someone wins .

So Battle born & this aren't alike in the sense you think at all from what they shown with all the articles prior put up here show case. the only thing I think they share are noticeable & distinct characters that are playable,(which with over watch unlike battle born they aren't all heroes but villains aswell. which is another major difference) with their trailers that aren't game play ones. They're both very cool though.


this was put up too about story Mode below, as well. I'm skipping the video cause I don't want to take away fro terry's post

Battleborn modes and features announced, E3 2015 trailer
Published 8 hours ago. 9 comments.

25 unique playable characters confirmed.



2K Games and Gearbox Software have released the E3 2015 trailer and new details for upcoming hero shooter Battleborn.
The game will feature 25 unique playable heroes, a story mode playable alone or with friends, three distinctively different competitive multiplayer modes (“Incursion,” “Devastation,” and “Meltdown”), and a persistent progression system.
The new trailer, dubbed “For Every Kind of Badass,” showcases many of the first-person shooter’s 25 heroes in action.
Get the new trailer and full details below. Battleborn will be playable at E3 from June 16 to 18.
About
Battleborn is set in a distant future, where nearly every star in the universe has gone dark at the hands of a mysterious enemy. Solus, the last star, is the only beacon of hope for the universe’s surviving population. The fading of stars has led to a great war among those desperate for the last remaining resources. Heroes, called Battleborn, fight for the dominance of their unique factions as all life in the universe teeters on the brink of extinction. Now, the mysterious enemy is threatening to finish what they’ve started, and only an unlikely alliance between the universe’s most powerful heroes can stop them.
Game modes and features for Battleborn include:

  • Story Mode: Battleborn’s Story Mode is a narrative experience playable in a single-player capacity, as well as cooperatively by up to five friends via splitscreen or online. The Story Mode is modular, allowing players to choose which missions to enjoy next. The modular structure of Story Mode also allows players to replay missions for the chance to earn better loot;
  • 25 Playable Heroes: Battleborn has a deep and diverse roster of 25 playable heroes, each with its own personality and equipped with unique weapons and powers. An accelerated character growth system, known as the Helix System, allows players to level up a character from 1 to 10 in a single story mission or competitive multiplayer match;
  • Competitive Multiplayer: Battleborn’s team-based competitive multiplayer action can be experienced by up to 10 players online in 5v5 matches and will include three distinct modes:
    • Incursion: Teams of heroes defend their base from waves of AI-controlled minions while working together, alongside their own minions, to destroy their opponents’ base;
    • Devastation: Teams of heroes face off in a fast-paced death match and must capture and hold objectives on the map to win;
    • Meltdown: Teams of heroes protect their minions as they march to their death at the center of the map. Points are scored for minions who throw themselves into the incinerator, and the team with the most points wins.
  • Persistent Progression System: All experience points, whether earned through playing Battleborn’s Story Mode or Competitive Multiplayer modes, contribute to leveling up individual Character Rank, as well as player profile Command Rank:
    • Character Rank: Each hero can permanently rank up from 1 to 10 outside of missions and matches, allowing players to swap out augments in their helix skill tree, as well as unlock skins.
    • Command Rank: Players can rank-up their own player profile, unlocking badges and
      titles to impress friends, and loot that can be used to benefit any hero the player chooses to command.

I think Battleborn looks more fun because of the PVE focus. I'm not a fan of pvp.

Published 14 hours ago. 6 comments.
Meet Ambra, Mellka, Reyna, and Benedict.


Battleborn-Dated-Feb-9.jpg

Battleborn will launch for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC worldwide on February 9, 2016, 2K Games and Gearbox Software announced.
An open beta will be held prior to the release of hte game. More details about the beta will be shared later this year.
Additionally, 2K games revealed four new playable heroes today, including Ambra, Mellka, Reyna, and Benedict. Find details on each below:

  • Ambra: Born into an ancient order of priestesses responsible for discovering a way to prolong life indefinitely, Ambra was betrayed by her leader and her faction, the Jennerit Empire, and now fights alongside the Battleborn. She is a specialist hero, dealing damage up close through her melee attacks and powerful abilities, while healing her allies in the process.



  • Mellka: A stealthy assassin, Mellka lost her parents at a young age before eventually earning her place among the Eldrid’s black op’s and intelligence bureau. Her life has been defined by a series of staggering losses, but her response to these losses was never despair – it was fury. She strikes quickly, disorienting foes with her nerve gas machine pistol and bio-glaive melee attacks.



  • Reyna: Known by her followers as “The Valkyrie,” Reyna was born aboard the Rogue faction’s ailing junk heap of a flagship and is a native to the last star system. Reyna has fought tirelessly for the freedom of her space pirate comrades, finding her calling as their inspirational leader. She dishes damage with her laser pistol and uses her command glove to support her teammates.



  • Benedict: August Benedict Jr. is one of several surviving races of bird-like “Aviant” refugees. He swore allegiance to the Peacekeepers where he’s gained considerable notoriety for being a self-centered jerk that’s capable of astounding destruction with his rocket launcher. Double jumping, rocket jumping, and flying – Benedict’s good at all of them and he lets his teammates know it.
Battleborn is a first-person shooter set in the distant future featuring 25 unique playable, upgradable heroes who form an alliance to save the last start in the universe from a mysterious enemy bent on destroying it. Its story mode can be played alone or cooperatively with up to five friends, split-screen and online. There are also three competitive online modes.

Battleborn : A Mix of Genres, Ripe for MMO and RPG Fans

Posted Oct 19, 2015

A lot of our readers may not know it, but Gearbox and 2K’s Battleborn are poised to bring a much-needed sense of co-op PVE to the land of competitive online shooters when the game launches in February. We reached out to Creative Director Randy Varnell to ask about Battleborn’s more RPG and PVE sensibilities, and we think you’ll like his answers…
Read more of Bill Murphy's Battleborn: A Mix of Genres, Rip for MMO & RPG Fans.
MMORPG: When we heard about Battleborn initially, we wondered if it would really interest our readers... then you announced a full-on PVE campaign. Can you give us an overview of the story of Battleborn?
Randy: Sure! In the distant future, the stars are dying. Many of them through the natural course of heat death, but also now due to the invasion of a dark and mysterious foe, the Varelsi who are accelerating the darkening of the stars. Civilizations rose up to fight against them, but unwilling to abanding their previous struggles and wars, they could not unify to slow the unyielding tide of the Varlesi.
[YT]h0KMARbTWps[/YT]Now, there is only one star left in the entire universe--Solus, the Last Star. One of our universe's own, Lord Commander Lothar Rendain of the Jennerit Imperium, has turned against us, sided with the Varlesi and how leads an unholy alliance to end the last star.
With the end seemingly inevitable, a band of heroes rise from among the factional squabbling and resource struggles to stand up against these foes. They are called Battleborn--heroes from many different places and civilizations, but joined together for one purpose: to save Solus, the last star.
MMORPG: And you can play through this campaign, sort of like a more linear Borderlands, with any of the game's heroes?
Randy: Yes! The story missions let you play through the narrative of saving the last star, through a series of critical missions and battles in the fight for Solus. In each of the missions, you select from any of the 25 Battleborn, and experience some of the personal story of that character during the mission. While there is certainly a full story arc for Battleborn, most of the missions are presented more like TV show episodes with a beginning, middle and end, focusing on a part of the broader story.
MMORPG: Why did you decide to add a PVE campaign to the game, when all the rage right now is PVP battle games? (I ask, snidely as a PVE fan...)
Randy: Non-competitive co-op play has always been a goal for Battleborn. Our desire with the game was to create a base of exceptional and varied characters, and give players lots of ways to explore their combat styles and customizations, both through competitive play and through story missions. We know from making Borderlands that a lot of folks really enjoy digging in to solid, challenging cooperative play, and wanted to bring this experience into a hero-focused game.
MMORPG: Are there weapons and items to collect, akin to Borderlands?
Randy: Yes! While we are putting more emphasis on the number and variety of characters, Battleborn does feature an extensive gear system, with thousands of procedurally-generated items or various abilities, rarities and strengths. Our gear system has been designed to help scratch that loot itch, and to provide interesting options for the collector, the achiever, and the focused min/maxers who want to compete for victories in competitive matches or for high scores in particular story missions.
Battleborn1_t.jpg

MMORPG: Can you tell us about character progression, how it works? Do you start at level 1 each mission or...?
Randy: I like to think of Battleborn as having layers of interesting progression.
In matches and missions, yes - you start at level 1 and earn character levels during the course of the match as you play to level 10. Each level, you get to choose between two binary upgrades, customizing your character's abilities for that match. Next match, you start over at level 1 and get to make those choices again. It’s sort of like re-spec the game, blending build tweaking from Borderlands and MMOs with some of the rapid growth in match in the battle arena style games.
As you learn more about the character and the challenges you face, you will make different choices, tuning that character to your preferences in playstyle, but also adapting the character to your other teammates and to the enemies you face, whether those enemies are other players or hordes of NPCs and bosses you’ll face off against during the story missions. Experiment with character tactics and builds as you compete with other players directly in Versus, but indirectly (through score!) in the story missions.
Outside of match, characters grow persistently through character ranks. Each of the 25 Battleborn has 15 Character ranks for you to achieve, by earning rank experience from playing matches as that character. Each character rank will unlock new rewards for that character, including new gameplay skills for your Helix (these are called “mutations”) as well as aesthetic customizations (skins and taunts) and more loot (rare gear packs!).
MMORPG: Can you take a leveled hero from PVE to the MOBA-like PVP mode?
Randy: Yes, of course. Because growth is a key part of gameplay (leveling from 1 to 10 each match), characters are absolutely playable in Versus and Story at any time. The persistent unlocks for the characters (mutations) are designed to offer you more choices, but not necessarily be inherently stronger. Some power growth progression is gained from gear, but Battleborn offers skill-based matchmaking that helps keep the competitive playing fields as fair as possible.
MMORPG: Are all 25 heroes unlocked from the word go, or is unlocking them part of the point of progressing the campaign?
Randy: We love to unlock stuff and we think you do too! A bunch of characters are available at the start of the game, and the others are rapidly unlocked as you play through aspects of the game and complete some early challenges.
MMORPG: Are there plans to add to the campaign as the game ages?
Randy: We certainly hope so! Battleborn has a deep and rich fiction (with over 20,000 years of lore in the timeline!) and I have a lot more story I’d like to tell about the darkening universe and the amazing heroes fighting to save it. We hope you guys like the game enough for us to have the opportunity to expand the story in the future.
Battleborn2_t.jpg

MMORPG: So the end of the story here is not the end of the overall world of Bliss?
Randy: Not even close. :) Unless you fail, of course, and let the star die. But you’re not going to fail, are you, Battleborn?
As a bit of lore housekeeping – Bliss is one of three planets you visit as you play through the missions and matches of Battleborn. Bliss is an icy, barely habitable moon of a gas giant where the faction – the United Peacekeeping Republics (U.P.R. or “Peacekeepers” for short) have bunkered in with their mobile bases to try and fight to save the star. Ekkunar is a lush, green planet shattered in recent years by strange anomalies caused by the Varelsi incursion into our universe. Tempest is the homeworld of the vast and militaristic Jennerit Imperium. Orbited by the massive constructed moon-ship Exodus, Tempest is the current base of operations of Rendain and his final military push to darken the last star.
MMORPG: Thanks for your time! Anything you want to tell our readers? MMORPG.com gamers tend to be picky, but when we love something we CRUSH IT WITH THAT LOVE.
Randy: Battleborn is a broad game with a deep story, great characters, and lots of ways to play, grow and progress. Part shooter, part RPG, part action game, part fighter and part battle arena, Battleborn lets you choose from a wide cast of awesome and colorful characters and test yourself against other players or the foes of a dying universe. I really hope you’ll give it a shot by either helping us test it in the upcoming closed technical test starting October 29, or in the open beta that we’ll eventually share more info about as we get closer to launch! If you want to register to participate in the closed technical test, you can do that at http://rsvp.battleborn.com. You’ll be able to experience a mission from the co-op story mode, as well as play competitive multiplayer for the first time, and we’re really excited to hear players’ feedback.
