Blood Bowl 3 Beta Updated (New Thoughts and Criticisms)

I REALLY hope this isn’t what the final game looks like. Because if so, I’m literally just going to stick with Blood Bowl 2.

I cannot see any of the players, it's so goddamn bright.

You have to admit, it is getting better and better. I remain quite hopeful

I've been waiting for it for so long. It's disappointing. I don't like the format. Maybe it's going to be like the dawn of war franchise. I enjoyed them all, up until the last one, played it a couple of times and hated it. Its sat there unplaced since. From what I've seen so far, I'm going to feel the same when bb3 hits, unless it continues to change

I really don't agree with a lot of your criticisms, you complain you're being given too little information then complain that the log has too much information, you just pretended the dice wheel thing is confusing even though I instantly understood how the UI works. The Nuffle prayers seem strange but have you looked up how they work in the rules, cause they're in the new edition of the rules maybe they get explained in the tutorial.

Something that confirms the user the confusion is the fact you thought you were re-rolling the dice but in fact you were clicking keep the result…..ca only imagine how many people would be confused by this

It feels rushed as if they want people to play more games by taking time to make decisions out of the game. Which seems to be bad in my opinion. I get you want to streamline and make it more appealing to new players.

But honestly as a bloodbowl tabletop player and bb2 player. This looks confusing, rushed and bad. I hope they make changes

You can turn off camera movement while you cry for ten minutes of the video that the camera moves along with player movement 🙂

the UI looks like it's being made with console first and pc second, i feel it should be the other way.

For that pass at the end, the camera snaps to two different new angles, then the passing dwarf plays two consecutive different throwing animations during which the ball teleports back to his hand so he can throw it twice. It's insane.

You know what pisses me off the most…

11:37 The dice over the head are inverted to the dice on the wheel menu!
WHY?! WHY WOULD THEY DO THAT? WHAT POSSIBLE FUCKING REASON WOULD CAUSE THEM TO DESIGN IT LIKE THAT!

The amount of times that'll make people pick the wrong option when they are playing to the clock making fairly swift decisions and something about it just makes my ocd go ballistic.

The log is interesting. The “activation” and “move action” aren’t both necessary. A move action requires “activation” in all scenarios afaik, so no need to have a log saying activation.

Is there no AI vs AI?
The UI isn't that bad.
The colors are too washed out.

100% on the over whelming feeling of the UI. It is just like BB2 with stupid stuff floating over the screen. It's cluttered, clumsy and we DON'T need to see so much stuff, but we DO need to see the field and players!

this game looks so cool, love the new style they've gone with

For reference, in Blood Bowl 3 you must declare an action before moving your player. Previously you were able to move a player, pick up the ball, move again, and then pass. From now on you must declare that you are going to pass the ball, even if you don't yet possess it. This comes into play most commonly on passes but it is important because of skills like Foul Appearance. You must declare your blitz onto a Foul Appearance player before moving your player, which means if you roll a 1 you will not be able to block and you will be stuck in the square in which you activated your blitzing player.

Is this the new mobile version?
They should have fixed the bits that were actually broken not update the graphics for the sake of a new full price game plus dlc lmao

UI looks like a mobile game
