lemme spell it out for u buddy. MOBA= Massive Online Battle Arena
-
[quote][b]Massive[/b] Online Battle Arena[/quote]Yes, massive. Does 6v6 sound massive to you? No. A MOBA has at least 3v3 with hundreds of weaker AI combatants. Examples of these are LoL, Smite, Paragon, even Battleborn is closer to a MOBA than Overwatch. Overwatch is a hero-based shooter, like TF2.

Edited by klarbauter91: 5/12/2016 7:57:24 PMjust google what blizzard calls its own creation. Where is ur source saying that ai enemies define a MOBA? all it is, is an online battle arena where heroes fight each other. Why do all of you think that MOBA means tower defense? and yes 6v6 is massive since the term is from the 90's. I aggree its not 100% MOBA its a crossover between fps and MOBA. So can we please finally stop arguing about this bullshit...Blizzard has created a new genre with this game! Its a hybrid so lets just agree to disagree. P.S: its also part Moba because all u can do is fight online, no pve no offline mode no story just like dota or league of legends
-
[quote]new genre[/quote]This is very similar to TF2 with few aspects from MOBAs like the abilities. So no, it's not a new genre because it's been done before.

Edited by klarbauter91: 5/12/2016 8:02:11 PMokai so u call it an arena shooter just like quake arena. Like u said similar to TF but not exactly the same! So is it something new or not? At the end of the day i dont care what u call it. I flamed u because u said its not MOBA at all and thats not true! You are contradicting urself and im done arguing with kids.

Edited by Kankunation: 5/12/2016 8:30:33 PMA terrible name for the genre that applies to every multiplayer game ever. The better name is ARTS (action real time strategy). Its just not as popular to say, but describes the genre much better. Its a genre of which overwatch doesn't classify as at all, and that Battleborn half classified as.

Why are you telling me this? I agreed with you
-
sorry i meant soulbearer, no offense
-
None taken
-
it is a moba fps crossover
-
It's not a MOBA. It's a TF2 style Hero shooter.
-
No it isn't. That would be battleborn.
-
btw, battleborn sucks...smite is way cooler
-
Both of them are but Battleborn is more MOBA than fps while Overwatch is more FPS than MOBA
-
The only reason you'll say it's a moba is because it has characters with set abilities. That isn't even what defines a moba, so why would it define Overwatch? It has more in common with call of duties little characters in black ops 3 than anything moba related...
-
just quit, ur wrong buddy :D
-
Good argument. Oh wait.
-
Ai enemies and towers dont define a moba
-
ur talking tower defense. Overwatch has moba elements. Its Nothing like cod. Cod has no role distribution. tanks....DD...Support
-
Well according to the Google MOBA means Multiplayer online battle arena. Given that that's a very broad term just about anything involving online play against an enemy would be a MOBA, you don't need defining roles to make it a MOBA then. Destiny is easily the worst MOBA there is.
-
yeah but destiny isnt a battle arena it has lots of story and pve. Destiny is an mmofps
-
Is cod a rpg because u play as someone else? Because that's basically what ur saying
-
Hahahahahahahaha, destiny is definitely not an mmo.
