The game can be played on single-lane and three-laned map variants, both with very different gameplay dynamics. The recent release of the Survival mode DLC probably didn't help with battleground queue times, but the official forums have been full of similar complaints since launch.
I eventually found the much more enjoyable Elite Battlegrounds that don't use bots, but those matches took upward of five minutes to get into. The average wait time to get into a standard battleground match was reported as one and a half minutes, but it typically took me double that to get into a match, and even then half of the players in the game were bots.
The lobby user interface is polished, and I spent an embarrassing amount of time reading through all the lore on each of the characters. The tutorial does over-explain things and constantly interrupts you with new instructions rather than letting you get on with testing out the controls yourself, but you can't argue with a free Gandalf! It's mostly stuff you could work out on your own, but completing it unlocks Gandalf as a playable guardian, so it's worth working your way through it. Guardians of Middle-Earth starts with an optional tutorial designed to introduce the control scheme and the basics of MOBA gameplay. In this hands-on opinion piece, I explore Guardians of Middle-Earth and ask why it's already a ghost town just three months after launch. may have accidentally consigned Guardians to the scrapheap. But in charging an initial purchase price for a game that relies on having a large community, publisher Warner Bros. Monolith Studios has done great things in adapting MOBA gameplay to a console control scheme and audience, and the core game really is a lot of fun to play. I'm not much of a console gamer (you can take my mouse and keyboard away when you pry them from my cold, dead hands), but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to see how Guardians of Middle-Earth stacks up against its PC-based counterparts. Released on PS3 and XBox 360 last December, Guardians of Middle-Earth took traditional DotA gameplay and made the quite experimental leap onto consoles. Today's MOBAs appeal to casual and competitive gamers alike, but until recently very few had crossed the console barrier. The MOBA genre has exploded in recent years, with global giant League of Legends becoming the most actively played video game in the world and competitive tournaments getting more viewers than some televised sports.
