Something to understand is that Deadlock is _genuinely_ still in an early alpha state. Probably half of the current characters are getting new models, the map is early and going to go through another art pass or two, mechanics are changing significantly every weekly patch and new mechanics are getting added (they just added walljumps and ropes everywhere??) Probably just over a year ago the game was still "Neon Prime", when the game had a cyberpunk theme. Totally different map art, character models were totally different (a few like Yamato and Viscous haven't been changed yet)... Icefrog & Co. really, really want people leaving them feedback on the official forums, because they're genuinely listening for it.
This is actually pretty normal for Valve. They run weekly playtests for their games while in development, basically as soon as they have something playable, while most devs only do them towards the end. It's the main reason why they take so long to develop games, and why they're so good.
true , about the feedback part, I mean they changed ivy's ultimate to what some people suggested in the forums. Plus its still very early alpha like you can just go into hero sandbox mode and try out like 10 different unreleased characters.
@@Tomahawk71 Ehhhh. Weird take. There's a reason why MOBAs typically just have the one, and Deadlock's is _significantly_ more complex than usual on top of that.
@@Anonymous-73somewhat, however all the trench coats, greaser hair, and weapons with Thompson and .38 special aspects makes me feel that it’s DEFINITELY noir
3:56 Incorrect, the buffs that drop from these are _permanent_ and they can also drop from any other destructable crates you find. They're probably the most important thing on the map that people mostly ignore. It's the power-ups that spawn on side bridges that are temporary. 4:03 Killing midboss will also spawn stronger troopers in all of your lanes, so it really is a "push everything now" moment.
Thankfully Valve is both privately owned and is making more money than God off of steam alone, so they: 1: Don’t have to ass kiss share holders because they have none. 2: Aren’t doing this just for money. They are doing it because they WANT to. Whether you’ll like the game or not comes down to personal preference after that point.
11:46 They are apparently working on a visual-novel minigame thing you unlock by playing, and, based on your choices, you unlock different cosmetics, which is awesome. Definitely the coolest cosmetic-unlock thing in any modern game.
The game isn't past its time. It's just fashionable for people to say it is. It's got one of the best player counts on steam (not many players, yes, but more consecutive players than most)

There is SOME spare lore on the heroes page in the main menu. Abrahms is a detective that everything got destroyed and found a misterious book that he has to protect, Bebop was created by a woman engineer so Bebop is like her son and Bebop is here to pay for her medication. Then you got some funny lores like LASH or Yamato, and then you got SEVEN which has a scroll bar and Viscous is really interesting.

Yeah, I want to learn the lore, but everything's still in potential place holder state, so I wouldn't get too invested now, as it can and probably will be subject to change. See how many changes TF2 went through.
I really do hope they capitalize on the lore, I don’t want another game like this to have little or no story to go along with the game like Overwatch and its many clones. Maybe they can even make another “Meet the team” videos similar to TF2, it would really help in making these characters feel real.

I feel like the grey/drab color pallete on the map makes functional gameplay sense - there's a lot of communication that has to be done through the HUD and other in-world elements like the opponents' abilities, and having those stand out against a less colorful background makes them easier to read.
I feel the opposite on the need to put up more flashy aesthetics. They need to focus more on the overall readability without making things bright and colorful just to do that

What Deadlock does well for players new to MOBAs is not overwhelming them with information. Wave management isn’t as important as in league for example so just killing minions randomly makes you progress.
"It's Valve. Balance patches and esport support is definitely coming" Bro must be living under a very cool rock because I look at CS2 and TF2 and Valve hasn't done anything for those two.
@@PHoMi126 No, please. If Deadlock gets the treatment that DOTA it’ll die very fast and I’m telling you this as a DOTA player with more than 10,000 hours, but if you mean the early years of DOTA when Valve’s all attention was on its main product then yes, that’d be awesome.
TF2 players are a very insecure bunch who really don’t want to knowledge their old, plain looking, somewhat archaic, abandoned game is not actually doing well and is just another instance of Dead Internet Theory in practice.
I can't get over the fact that it's Valve who were talking about The same Valve that had the golden egg that was TF2, only to let it rot and be replaced by Overwatch The same Valve that does NOTHING to promote Dota 2, the only game in the world with the potential to be a true Menace to League when talking about MOBAS That same valve that has practically 0 mistakes when it comes to making games, only to do nothing to impulse them That Valve is now making this, I don't know how to feel
I started yesterday and I already am a pro with pocket but he doesn’t really deal damage or is fast but i just love how he fits in there and how good he is at dodging
I usually don't really like third person shooters either (though I do like third person games, just not shooters) but whem I'm done moving I'm definitely going to try this out. Looks like Valve really thought this one through. Had a lot of questions, but it seems like they've already had an answer ready for most of them. It's nuts.
I honestly am not a fan of how many comparisons this gets to overwatch. It has way more in common with league than any other arena/hero shooter. If anything it reminds me a lot of Battleborn, which was intentionally way more moba-like than overwatch
Yeah the only thing it has in common is that there are heroes (other hero shooters obviously have these too) and team fights where you don't know what's going on (more of a product of it being moba-like than anything else).
Regarding Lore, each character has a background tab that contains TONS of lore Also, regarding the toxicity. I already encountered it when I was playing as Abrams using the punching build and was dominating that little twerp
Ngl deadlock is so good because, atleast now, it isnt toxic at all. I legit only played this game for the past week with only positive feedback and then I had to play league because the servers were down and I instantly got flamed for no reason
If someone flame you mute them, if you want to hear genuin team disscusion sure but when you know the guy is just flaming you just mute him and let him scream at air
Great video just one small issue Tf2 didn't lose a lot of its players because of overwatch it was because of the meet your match update wich happened around the same time overwatch released
There is a item called debuff reducer that makes the cc a lot less powerful and it can be upgraded to a active version that removes all cc and makes u immune to all cc for a small time at the press of a button
"early access" rn they are still tweaking it Viscose went from just green humanoid slime To have bit more personality Like bigger eyes And visible skeletal And still being optimized
Valve doesn't tell their devs what to do. They pick and choose what games they wanna work on. Non of the valve devs wanna really work on tf2 anymore due to its code and it being insanely oudated. Valve doesn't just order people around. All gabe does is greenlight ideas and pull the plug on failing ones. He doesn't have much hands on control over the devs that work at valve
One of the biggest issue for me is that you want your gun to feel impactful in a shooter. But depending on how far behind you and your team is it can feel like a pea-shooter. You don't want to aim, track and shoot your enemy just for it to barely do anything. But it's more of an issue I have with the genre mix and not necessarily the implementation because I think the game is well-made enough, although I don't know if the cartoony aesthetic helps on that front.
I first mained pocket who had a cool appearance and lore, then shiv, then haze. I like the lore of shiv and Pocket and I like the gameplay of haze mid to late game
1. Concept art for the map shows that there will likely be more color and visual detail in the future. They probably don't want to do all the finishing touches until the map structure, pathing and mechanics are closer to final 2. I'm a longtime DotA player and that game has over 120 heroes. Coming from the same developer it's almost a certainty Deadlock will have vastly more than the 20-something heroes currently in the game 3. I agree this game is a 9/10 and once we all get the hang of it and it gets polished/finished it's probably going to be a 10.
You should note the dullness in the game is to distinguish between abilities easier. Thats why the map doesnt have that much color otherwise you cant see it
To anyone out there wondering why they cant download the game on steam, you need a invite to play. you can get a invite from anyone who already has a invite to the game
Im so happy this has a unique setting instead of the same vague future thing it feels like he have got for the last 10 years. Basically all MOBAs are like medival magic fantasy so it’s a good break from that as well.
Deadlock being a combination of MOBA and Hero Shooter is gonna have me addicted to it. Also you gotta love when the Devs are actually listening for feedback. Rare W, but when you consider it's Valve, it's pretty typical of them.

Yeah the only thing it has in common is that there are heroes (other hero shooters obviously have these too) and team fights where you don't know what's going on (more of a product of it being moba-like than anything else).
As soon as I saw this game, I couldn't stop thinking about Super Monday Night Combat and man, do I kinda miss that game.
"league" not even
It's more like dota 2 due to the deny mechanics
Secret shop
Flexible builds
I didn't even think this coming to consoles was remotely an option, but if it did I'd be PUMPED!
Ill join too! 13:25
Regarding Lore, each character has a background tab that contains TONS of lore
Also, regarding the toxicity. I already encountered it when I was playing as Abrams using the punching build and was dominating that little twerp
And then there is Lash who has one line of text for his lore. "Jacob Lash is an asshole"
You can tell this dude was born in the 2000s.
i was looking for this video yesterday 😭
Ngl deadlock is so good because, atleast now, it isnt toxic at all. I legit only played this game for the past week with only positive feedback and then I had to play league because the servers were down and I instantly got flamed for no reason
If someone flame you mute them, if you want to hear genuin team disscusion sure but when you know the guy is just flaming you just mute him and let him scream at air
Basically a MOBA Gunz: The Duel
Thought it was vals deadlock ngl😂
I've been playing too many single player games lately so now my barometer of interest is swinging the complete opposite way
So this game is basically Warlanders (if any1 knows what that is) but you only have six people on your team instead of one duodigintillion
All the cons you talked about like the story and music will be fixed since the game is in a private beta rn
Anyways amazing video gentleman XD
Great video just one small issue
Tf2 didn't lose a lot of its players because of overwatch it was because of the meet your match update wich happened around the same time overwatch released
There is a item called debuff reducer that makes the cc a lot less powerful and it can be upgraded to a active version that removes all cc and makes u immune to all cc for a small time at the press of a button
This game looks so good, except unfortunately the character designs look like generic mobile game characters lol
"early access" rn they are still tweaking it
Viscose went from just green humanoid slime
To have bit more personality
Like bigger eyes
And visible skeletal
And still being optimized
Each lane perhaps having a small unique style difference would help to know where you are.
What if Valve just focused on TF2? Like full gung-ho on developing it
Dawg the game is older than most viewers
I doubt they wanna do content updates for a game on an outdated engine.
@zaj007 cap I am 1 years old that is like the most oldest macro viewer
Valve doesn't tell their devs what to do. They pick and choose what games they wanna work on. Non of the valve devs wanna really work on tf2 anymore due to its code and it being insanely oudated. Valve doesn't just order people around. All gabe does is greenlight ideas and pull the plug on failing ones. He doesn't have much hands on control over the devs that work at valve
You bought that wingman at a convention like I did didn't you. 🤣
28 like in 20 seconds? Macro fell off
Say it with me!
You should "love" yourself NOW!!⚡🌩️
Please stop with this stupid shit
🤦♂️🤦♀️🤦🏻🤦🏼♀️🤦🏿♂️🤦🏼🤦🏾♀️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏿
One of the biggest issue for me is that you want your gun to feel impactful in a shooter. But depending on how far behind you and your team is it can feel like a pea-shooter. You don't want to aim, track and shoot your enemy just for it to barely do anything. But it's more of an issue I have with the genre mix and not necessarily the implementation because I think the game is well-made enough, although I don't know if the cartoony aesthetic helps on that front.
The artistic inspirations definitely postdate the victorian era/steampunk('s era of inspiration) by quite a few decades.
Gargoyles and Static Shock references in one vid. Definitely GOTY material
funny coming to a hero shooter moba from the moba side, I need to watch hero shooter for noobs video lmao
Macro ur my favorite UA-camr
Good vid. A little misleading with not fully accurate information, but overall good vibes and editing :D
Apart from the color palette I think most of the game is great. The fact that I can auto pilot builds just makes this better
I first mained pocket who had a cool appearance and lore, then shiv, then haze. I like the lore of shiv and Pocket and I like the gameplay of haze mid to late game
The Rogue Company reference goes crazy💥
carter aces music fits so well.
1. Concept art for the map shows that there will likely be more color and visual detail in the future. They probably don't want to do all the finishing touches until the map structure, pathing and mechanics are closer to final
2. I'm a longtime DotA player and that game has over 120 heroes. Coming from the same developer it's almost a certainty Deadlock will have vastly more than the 20-something heroes currently in the game
3. I agree this game is a 9/10 and once we all get the hang of it and it gets polished/finished it's probably going to be a 10.
haters of this game for sure does not even play mobo or dota, definitely dota players will enjoy this like me
You should note the dullness in the game is to distinguish between abilities easier. Thats why the map doesnt have that much color otherwise you cant see it
To anyone out there wondering why they cant download the game on steam, you need a invite to play. you can get a invite from anyone who already has a invite to the game
Im so happy this has a unique setting instead of the same vague future thing it feels like he have got for the last 10 years. Basically all MOBAs are like medival magic fantasy so it’s a good break from that as well.
Deadlock being a combination of MOBA and Hero Shooter is gonna have me addicted to it.
Also you gotta love when the Devs are actually listening for feedback. Rare W, but when you consider it's Valve, it's pretty typical of them.
I think the game being very gray is a good design philosophy so that it's easier to track action happening on screen
Bro, this is hype. I loved Paragon! But when epic cancelled it, I had a hole left in my heart. I’m definitely going to check this game out.
that GOD DAMN! in the beggining made me insta like this vid xD
I don't know why but it's kinda funny how marco showing league instead of dota 😂
