    Been waiting for a decent controller based MOBA on PS4 (did not dig Smite's camera), this fits the bill. Some bugs in the first few days but that is to be expected. Overall a ton of fun to chill on the PS4.

    Ok, there is still alot that need to be fix how ever. They have seen bugs update and other thing in the work to fix alot of the issues. Balance issues are with any moba game. I will say some op hero are only op if you do not know how to counter them.

    It's a great game with minor tweaks but I think the most frustrating thing about this game is the lack of skilled players. Too often am I playing with people who do not pay attention to the map and pings. I feel like I'm the only who pays attention to the map and pings. Also idk if mics work within the game because that would be truly helpful in relaying information.

    Well done!

    A mix of heroes copied from dota2, LoL and Smite. Very smooth gameplay and good graphics. Do it like Blizzard: Collect ideas from other games, combine them and polish them like hell! This could be a ten with some balancing, voice and ranked gameplay. increase respawn timer late game at least by 50% Kate-x and Nameless are way too strong Add ranked play Fix matchmaking    Well done!

    Kate-x and Nameless are way too strong
    Add ranked play
    Fix matchmaking - many players are really bad and ruin the gameplay experience
    Add team voice ( for coordination because chat is not possible via console)
    Add 4k graphics

    It is really addictive and I love it.
    Keep up the good work!!    … Expand

    Beginner friendly moba that works on controller. Still easy to find ranked matches after 1 year but a little bit thin on updates. Towers needs buffing and armor should not shield you from tower damage. It also needs some tweaks to inhibit “death balling”. Match length are normally sub 30 minutes, the 60-kill win is a bit to ordinary. Some new items would not hurt, maybe some invisibilityBeginner friendly moba that works on controller.

    I felt this game was very good with a lot of potential to grow. I have been playing a week now, and its now my go-to MOBA. I am writing this as many of the things mentioned in the negative reviews have already been resolved. examples: i have not had a single crash, my ping has been good (in Australia no less), you can get new characters froms login bonuses and whatnot now, and when iI felt this game was very good with a lot of potential to grow. I have been playing a week now, and its now my go-to MOBA. I am writing this as many of the things mentioned in the negative reviews have already been resolved. examples: i have not had a single crash, my ping has been good (in Australia no less), you can get new characters froms login bonuses and whatnot now, and when i loaded the game it defaulted to English.

    Devs:
    As mentioned above, it seems to me that they're listening. most times I've seen a complaint in a review, I've thought to myself, well they've already fixed that....

    Balance:
    Personally i feel this is a non issue, if you have ever played any style of PvP game online, you know this will be addresses via nerfs/buffs in patches. This only recently came out, there is bound to be balance issues. Hell, they're still balancing WoW or LoL to this day.

    Avatars:
    -With so many kits out there across all the Mobas, i think it would be unfair to tell a new moba to create utterly unique kits. First they will look at what kits are considered "key" in other Mobas and implement them. I'm ok with that. I'm sure they will branch out eventually and try new things like they all do. I like the the art style too, very reminiscent of LoL or Wildstar

    F2P model:
    -Its not much of an issue for me, as you can obtain new Avatars now via: login bonuses, in game currencies, and achievements. Personally i have never been one to care about/buy the skins.
    -On the other hand, if skins is your thing, they ARE overpriced in this MOBA imo
    -The store is no worse than rocket league, which i play often.

    Targeting/Automatic features
    -It defaults with an auto item purchase, and auto level up feature. I think this is great for newbies. Their build wont be optimal, but it will get them through their first couple of days of playing until they decide what avatar they want to start with and look up a build.
    -And yes, you can change tarting priority on the fly now.
    -I think the targeting complaints come from people who have a specific expectation of how targeting should work in a Moba, and this Moba doesn't do that. Un-apologetically, and thats ok by me. Personally i am ok with conforming to a new method of targeting.

    (CONS)Things i think need work:
    -Currently my average game length is about 35-50 minutes. i would like to get that down to 20-30 if possible
    -A way to earn skins with out real world money (even if it takes a month or two per skin) OR a big reduction in Skin cost. although skins canbe as little as $5.00 AUD (which im ok with) they can be as high as approx $21.00 AUD if its the newest ones.
    -Improvement to the item purchasing UI in game would be nice
    - I would like a way to pre-setup my item purchases for avatars
    -The "estimated time" for match is always way off. It almost always says under 30sec to find a match, but normally take 5-10 minutes. Please make the estimates more accurate.    … Expand

    I'm really enjoying the game. I'm still hardstuck Ensign but it's easier when you have friends to learn with. Mikazuki main. My primary Gripe is that Voice chat is no longer functioning.

    This game has a lot of potential. It has awesome graphics, a campaign mode, ranked system and very good sci-fi models. 10/10 because i loved the game before i was a able to play. it has some latency problems atm caused by the poor servers of the company but they will fix things up soon after the Xbox one release.
