Borderlands 4 dev urges Concord studio to back up work after losing theirs to Gearbox's hero shooter flop: "I regretted not getting it while I could"
Lessons learned from Battleborn

A 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Borderlands 4 lead🦄 has urged Concord developers to save their work before it's tooꦅ late.
PlayStation's Concord and Gearbox Software's Battleborn have followed a weirdly similar trajectory of competing in the relatively small hero shooter arena only to end up going offline in Overwatch's shadow - though, 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Concord was only able to hold on fo🥂r two w𒈔eeks, sadly.
News of Concord's imminent (maybe-temporary) shutdown reminded Borderlands 4's narrative director Sam Winkler of his experience sayi♍ng goodbye to a game that he'd worked on for years, prompting him to offer some advice to the folks at Firewalk Studi🐬os.
"Anyone who worked on Concord (or any live service game) - get your work captured ASAP," Winkler just yesterday. "For a long time, I didn't have capture of my work on Battleborn - my first shippe𓆉d content ever! - and I regretted not getting it while I could. Only got it eventually thanks to a fan mod."
You might remember Battleborn as the hero shooter that mixed in some MOBA flavor and some Borderlands-style gear to the formula, or you might just remember it as the game that was almost always doomed from the start based on its proxi🦄mity to the first Overwatch's massively successful༺ launch.
Either way, the shooter came out in 2016, was removed from sale at the end of 2019, and didn't go offline until 2021, which is almost a lifetime compared to 🍨the grace failed live services get nowadays. In comparison, Concord's developers have until September 6 to save an🔯y footage from the game, at which point it'll go offline as the studio determines "the best path ahead."
