Crazy Justice Developer Insists The Game Is Not Just A Fortnite Clone

Battleborn'd.

“we don't believe Crazy Justice is an inferior experience, and we don't even consider our game to be at a disadvantage if Fortnite happens to release for Nintendo Switch during E3.”

In all honesty everything I’ve seen of the game so far seems like they are making very slow progress. I don’t have faith that all the “unique” features they mentioned will be out in a timely manner. And the idea of a Battle Royale game without set character stats seems ridiculous.

I bet those guys are big fans of Cube Creator 3D.

@SmaggTheSmug that's exactly the game I though of while reading this. That game got absolutely murdered by releasing next to Overwatch. No fault of their own and there's no way they could've known but it is what it is. If Fortnite does release before or near this game, I pray for the dev team!

"It might look similar at first glance, but we are bringing a unique and alternative playstyle to the massively popular genre of Battle Royale, and for you (as a player) this is great news."

They better scream this from the heavens, cause I can see it easily getting confused as a knock off. I don't think the name is anything great either. Crazy Justice, I dunno, it just doesn't have a ring to it. I wish them luck, no one likes to see a dev have a bad release.

I will try it out, a buddy bought me the founders pack for fortnite in the fall so that might sway me to play that instead lol.

So glad i backed this game

Kinda reminds me of the Ucraft / Minecraft situation on Wii U. And we know how that turned out.

I bought this game a few months ago, way before fortnite was announced for the switch (i hate that game anyway). This game to me looked like a great hybrid between games like fortnite and overwatch, seemed at the time to be the best multiplayer shooter option for the swtich. Hope its fun, looks good to me.

Splitscreen multiplayer may do it for me. Love me some splitscreen.

Seriously, though, more games, especially shooters, need local splitscreen. Like, the ability for two people on the same console to join, say, a Fortnite squad together, or do an online Salmon Run in Splatoon 2 with other friends? That'd be golden.

@EasyDaRon It's free that's all there is to it. Any game that's well made, and free will take off like a rocket with the proper advertising.

I'm personally excited for the game. I'm not really into Fortnite or PUBG, so I'm very curious what this brings to the table. And AFAIK even before Fortnite's battle royale was a thing this was already been in development.

I'm not a fan of building games. If Crazy Justice is pure shooter then I much prefer that.

I tweeted the developer and told them, Fortnite or not, I plan on getting this game on the Switch. Look forward to some co-op story mode fun!

So it’s like an overwatch Fortnite is what I’m getting. Which is not bad! With this being a massive player FPS I am really excited and curious to see how the Switch will hold up in those battles. Maybe adaptive resolution would help in heavy situations like Splat and Zelda.

This game looks much better to me than PUBG or Fortnite.

Was this the game that was / is very popular in China?

I never cared about Fortnite, but this actually seems interesting. Having a co-op story mode with split screen alone is intriguing enough to pay attention to this game. I'm the kind of gamer that likes customizing characters though, so character design is kind of big deal to me. That turquoise haired...person isn't doing it for me so far. The gameplay looks interesting at least.

It seems like every time a popular game comes along there is always a number of cheap imitations that come along.

@EasyDaRon Kids seems to really love it. Whenever I saw someone stream Fortnite it seems to be dominated by a very young audience, which is obvious when they get on the mic.

I don’t care a bit about Fortnite. This, on the other hand, is picking up my interest.

1 Crazy Justice has motion controls. Ya.

2 No focus on building afaIk

3 The game does genuinely look good

Hey, it doesn't have to be as popular as the most popular video game in the industry to be good. And I agree that are options are good. I remember not so long ago when people said Fortnite was a clone of PUBG, and now look where it's at.

Every game has to start somewhere.

They need to a better job explaining the differences and features they have over fortnite, ratherthan just say they aren't worried. They are shooting themselves in the foot, and sadly this game is far more interesting to me then fortnite. Here's some gameplay from the mp beta, and the trailer mashed together:

Not focused on instant building: While there will be spells and skills that allow you to build structures, fast building is not an essential part of Crazy Justice.

I'm in!

Looks like it could still be fun, the turrets alone are kind of game changers. I dunno if this one is F2P but if it is I'll give it a go. Otherwise wait for reviews.

If they said anything else, they'd literally be shooting themselves in the kidney and then shoving a lead rod in to pry the wound open more so they bleed out faster.

Even if the game is in fact as good as Fortnite or better, and even if it is quite different, the fact is a lot of people see it as the same kind of thing, and Fortnite is crazy popular already.

@Heavyarms55 That's not what "literally" means. Nobody is actually going to commit suicide over a video game rivalry.

Anyway, BOOM Shots fired! Those differences certainly make "Crazy Justice" out to be the superior product, in my opinion.

By the way, I'm confused about something. What exactly makes the battle royale genre different from the multiplayer mode of a standard FPS?

@BulbasaurusRex Ignoring the fact that there actually have been suicides over failed video game projects in the past, you're right, "figuratively" I think would be a more correct word.

As to your last point, it's not that different. The main thing is, usually at least, Battle Royales have more players and it is everyone for themselves. And they aren't limited to first person shooters basically is sort of battle based game, with at least 3 or more players or teams of any sort, could be called a battle royale.

@Heavyarms55 So games like "Fortnite" are just a way to have online multiplayer deathmatches; but there is no single player campaign, local multiplayer, survival modes, or team based or objective based matches? Well, that's disappointingly limited. How did these games become so popular when you could play a more complete FPS like the latest Halo or Call of Duty games instead? Well, at least they're better than the Splatoon games, where you can't play deathmatches at all. These people should be advertizing "Crazy Justice" as the Switch's first complete FPS rather than trying to compare it to Fortnite at all!

@BulbasaurusRex Well no, there are other game modes. It's just that right now, specifically this mode is crazy popular.

On the other hand - no way in hell I'd ever agree they are better than Splatoon. Splatoon has several great modes and is one of the most creative new IPs in the last decade.

@Heavyarms55 What great modes? All you can do in the Splatoon games is have lame turf wars! There aren't any deathmatches or any other modes with kill based gameplay, while the motion controls are limited to the stupid gyro with dual sticks method rather than the tried and true Wiimote/Joycon with a single stick method. Just because it's creative doesn't mean it's actually any good compared to what came before it.

@BulbasaurusRex If Deathmatch is all you care about, then Splatoon isn't the game for you. But Turf War, Rain Maker, Salmon Run and Tower Control are all quite fun. Both games had fun single player experiences as well.

No no no! Please don't complain about Splatoon's controls, they are wonderful. I never felt the need for a kills based mode in Splatoon but maybe it's on the cards for the next version?

Not only has this game sold out be becoming a FBR clone, it's sold out by becoming a PVP clone when it started out as a decent single player shooter a'la Borderlands.
Why can't people leave things alone when they're good?
