Crunky Chops Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Has anyone seen this preview from ign: https://www.ign.com/articles/blood-bowl-3-the-first-preview Not much you probably didn't know already, but alarmingly it said early access September with a full released Feb 2022! They'll be a few more seasons of bb2 yet it seems! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 2 2 6 2 4
Rymdkejsaren Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 First beta opens today but it's very limited. I'm glad they pushed full release, and with early access it might even be we can start enough of a movement to get some of the much wanted features for leagues implemented. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiling Tom Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Good: release pushed to Q1 2022 Not so good: "no plans" to include redraft in the initial launch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 3 3 2 2 2
Rymdkejsaren Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 They also stated that they will take time to implement the most requested features in early access. So it's about organising all the leagues to make enough noise. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 2 4 2 2 3 2 2

Instead of being a doomsayer, why don't you help the community make sure the final product lives up to our expectations? They've specifically stated that they'll implement the most requested features during early access. So get your shit together and help us make this game good, or stay out of the discussion with your negativity, please and thank you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danton Posted June 4, 2021 Author Share Posted June 4, 2021 If the community makes enough noise about lack of redraft options then I think they will have to strongly consider adding it at some point. Given the severe lack of polish of the current version of the Beta I can see why they have shelved the idea all the same. Correctly implementing the rules and having a UI that doesn't make your eyes bleed have a higher priority for sure! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 2 3 2
Hobnail Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 I'm gonna give the beta another go tonight at some point, but after last night's experience (and Cyanide's track record), my expectations aren't all that high for the finished product.

AllyRdr Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 My impressions come solely as a viewer on Twitch rather than as a player, but so far I'm not sold (I know, Ally in negative opinion shocker). The constant zoom in/zoom out every time a player moves is giving me motion sickness (for context, I get pretty bad motion sickness. The last time I tried to go on a roller coaster I spent the rest of the day feeling dizzy and nauseous). If that's not something that can be turned off, then the game will be unplayable for me. I'm also not sold on the UI at all. They seem to have doubled down on many of the features I didn't like in BB2, and from watching some game, it seems really hard to know what dice roll has actually failed at times to decide whether to use a reroll. Hopefully this is still a very early build, given that it's been pushed back again, but on past track record I don't hold out much hope. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobnail Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 I tried again in the cold light of day. I figured the camera angle out so it was tolerable. The Black Orc pitch I found easier than the Nobility one. Interested to see Ripper Bolgot amongst the stars available to the BO team given he isn't part of BB2020 (yet). But after 8 turns, I just gave up again. It's ghastly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 5
Javelin Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 https://twitter.com/BloodBowl_Game/status/1440683566350802946?s=20 I thought they had already delayed to early 2022, but in any case it's not September 2021...

Rymdkejsaren Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Yeah, no surprise there. From what I heard from the beta they were a long way away from release-worthy, even in ea. But at least they seem to be taking their time with it. I'll cautiously take that as a good sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards 2 4 2 2 3 2 2

Gobas Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I must say despite some problem (got one crash and one freeze when AI moved) I enjoy playing BB3. After a while I get used do controls, graphics are really good, game works quite smoothly. I have feeling that animations are faster than BB2 (I didn't measure it but I have feeling I am quitting my turns a little bit faster than BB2).

Nibenon Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I think we must have played different games I agree that models and stadiums looks great from up close and I don't doubt technical problems and crashes will be fixed. But the game itself felt like a weird mixture of point and click puzzle and qwop. You have to both find the information relevant to the game since it's hidden among useless flashy stuff and fight clunky controls. Actually playing bloodbowl gets left as a distant third on the list you do. If it releases as it looks now, even with all technical parts working perfectly, I wouldn't want to switch to it from bb2.

brocCooLi Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 i havent played that much but im really annoyed that when you do a block, dice get rolled, then you pick a result, and the dice rolls again???? it always feel strange and like i used a reroll or something. very strange and wonky.
