Idk If competing with overwatch is really a thing at this point the community is so loud and toxic. (As seen with paladins back when that debate was crazy). And all the overwatch players left are the hard core old head. I don't think marvel rivals will be able to poach any of those guys But alot of people have left overwatch over the years. Marvel rivals might be able to build a new playerbase from all the players that tried and quit/gave up on overwatch.

As overwatch leads the charge with tf2 in second and paladins in 3rd place, and than even 4th place is probably taken by battleborn which isnt even playable atm but the amount of people supporting it as the fanbase tries to get it back up and going is bigger than any 3rd person overwatch like game on the market atm which is unbelievably sad for 3rd person overwatch clones 😂😭

Re: Long cooldowns. These shorter shooter matches don't have the extra map components (farming xp/gold, neutral creeps/bosses, warding, etc.) that allow for this amount of ability downtime. It is JUST the teamfight all game. The incredible strength of this portal is going to feel unpredictable to play around since it's going to be used as a single outplay, hard for the enemy to track because of its infrequent cooldown and potentially subtle nature. So Dr Strange has this niche, teammate reliant ability that is useless for 3 minutes at a time but has comically overpowered strength when used well. So it feels bad for the doctor to be gimped for a couple fights but also feels bad/overtuned because its mere existence imposes a steeply asymmetrical need for vigilance on the enemy team. Compare this to Dota's Underlord who has almost the exact same ability but is playing a larger map with many varied objectives so that Underlord doesnt have this gaping downtime on a key part of his kit. He simply doesnt need this ability for every occasion. Dr is using his ability for a teamfight advantage. Underlord's portal is highly situational: grouping for fights, punctual escapes/kiting potential, split-push/farming, deep chases and more. I think the doctor only checks off two of these(deep chases and teamfight leverage), as its use as an escape is limited by the nature of the game mode. Why would you blow a 300 second cooldown on an escape from a lost objective? The dota mini-map and unfixed perspective justifies Underlord's existence as he is detectable within allied vision anywhere on the map. His strengths(and thus his available roles) aren't hard to plan around and compliment each other. Dr's 300 second ability is susceptible to wall hack abilities. I'm not sure how many there are or will be in Rivals, though. That said, since Dr's portal is going to be centered around two points in a 3d space (obj and the other team) this counter method is.....weird/bad when you consider youre picking a hero to beat a niche 300 second cooldown ability.

Regarding Hulk, he was my second most played hero during the alpha, and my favorite tank to play. I agree that his jump is very clunky, though you can actually charge it while taking other actions. Hold down spacebar while fighting, and then let go to immediately leap back out without needing to wait for the windup time. I dunno why they make you charge it up in the first place though. There needs to be a better way to aim it too, especially if you want to use it to knock flying heroes out of the sky. There was also something else in his kit that wasn't referred to anywhere in his bio page where it shows you all his skills. Hulk can cling to walls. You can't use any skills while doing so, and you can't crawl or run up them like other characters. But you can leap from wall to wall. I learned about that skill the very last day of the alpha, when I saw an enemy Hulk do it. Didn't really get any time to mess around with it before the alpha ended tho. But yeah, good video. Lots of good points made. Me personally, I enjoyed playing Marvel Rivals more than I've ever enjoyed playing Overwatch, and I can't wait to see how they implement all the player feedback in their beta.

I agree with majority of what you say, as always. aside from a couple things Strange: the close range on E is fine. getting close wasnt that difficult, your dmg pressure gets them low and have to break LoS, then u can walk up. your 2 tap leaves them very low and so that explo is the finisher. Kinda like sigma, hes a ranged tank but wanted to get closer to rock 1 shot combo (when he could do that). Its also a key part of when you ult cuz it does double dmg and will just instantly team wipe off a good ult.

The game definitely looks fun, and I'm for sure gonna try it out when it releases. However, I don't see myself playing it long term for a couple reasons: - Movement acceleration: Overwatch 2's movement is instant and feels snappy. Paladins also has movement acceleration, and it just feels awkward to play. - No role lock: There was nothing worse back in OW1 than queueing up in comp only to get 6 dps players on a team. Role lock is absolutely needed in a game like this. - Visual clutter: This one might not be as bad as I think. I feel like the more you play the less overwhelming it will all feel. We've all seen the videos of 2 mauga ults, sym ults etc. at the same time, but since we've played the game for so long we can still navigate those situations. The visual clutter may just be something that takes time to get used to. - Voice lines: I've watched quite a few people play the game, and the voice lines are just way too frequent. The voice acting quality is kinda whatever to me (Spider-Man's VA Yuri Lowenthal is still goated tho)

Lack of movement acceleration has been the bane of overwatch's balance from the very start. All characters at base have scout(tf2) level movement without any of the acceleration that prevents AD spamming from being as effective as it is. If you want an example of how this is unhealthy for the game just look at hammond, an already low damage character who's primary fire basically requires 60% headshots to be effective and see how long it takes for him to kill an AD spamming baptiste. What you'll find is the reason hurt boxes were enlarged and why so many heros have some sort of stun effect, Spamming projectile, or someway to completely bypass needing to shoot at all. Mei had her freeze and now her slow because it mitigates the impact of non-existent movement acceleration. Torbjorn and Symettra were both heavily reliant on their turrets in the early days because the devs needed heros that didn't rely on aim to heavily. Projectile characters are largely spammy mess of characters because they will inevitably miss so many of their shots because opponents can just swap directions in an instant. Moria has her meme beam so that she doesn't have to focus on trying to hit jittery flanks that constantly flank. Brigitte's EVERYTHING from her most toxic meta defining moments to her lowest pick rates have been a result of characters that can effectively abuse the lack of movement acceleration needing a dedicated counter just because of how oppressive they were. This system also fucks over tanks quite a bit because now they're the only target most players will be able to hit consistently. The game conditions them to focus tanks even harder than it already does. Tanks get focused harder to supports are buffed to out heal the damage but now it's even harder to kill a normal hero when their pocketed because they can just AD spam and heal off the hits they do get. Repeat the vicious cycle to today. If you want an even more egregious example of how lack of movement acceleration can hurt a game just look at high level COD gameplay. Without acceleration it turns into a weightless miss of sprinting full speed in one direction than just flicking to another without any slowdown. It's essentially the opposite of CS's movement which is still being played to this day largely in part because of it's excellent use of weighty movement acceleration. The point of this rant is to point how we really shouldn't be using lack of movement acceleration as a positive.

Rivals is going to draw fans of the genre (hero/moba shooter) who want to try something new, and Marvel fans who want to try a new Marvel game, that will end up as fans of the shooter genre. THEN unless Rivals absolutely decimates OW2 from a playability perspective, the most likely outcome is that Rivals eventually dies, and OW2 has new players introduced to the genre by Rivals.

This game feels coud last a year then shut down,also NetEase... So far,the only one that could give competition to overwatch is the game that got leaked from Valve. Valve is well know to create very compealing characters,and bring interesting changes gameplay wise when they create a game (Yes,for how much people hated Artifact,their approach to the card game was interesting and far different than the others).

correction: *people who watch movies are tired of marvel* . i dont so im excited to play as marvel characters. it takes me back to the 90s and early 2000s when super hero video games were peak. destructible environments should only be a feature in non-competitive modes. overwatch voice lines have an edgy undertone. everything is moody and post apocalyptic. but in marvel, its light, humorous, and positive as heck. i like it that way. i actually wish i could turn off voice lines in overwatch. i agree about regenerating health. screen border colors need a toggle off (overstimulation/visual clutter). in terms of hero abilities, you could take off 1 ability from most heroes and give it to upcoming heroes. some feel way too kitted, like punisher, for example. take away his turret and he still has a shotgun, smokes, a grapple, an ar, and a powerful ult. overall, im done with overwatch and have been looking for a similar game, tbh. i will be sinking time into rivals.

I think we underestimate how big this game is going to be. Marvel is already a bigger IP than blizzard, and it has more normie appeal. You don't have to learn a new character and story. You already probably have your favorite superheroes you want to play.

The game is on a knife edge where if they buff the wrong things (e.g. black panther, tanks) the game will immediately go to trash. It's fun right now because none of the gimmicky moba abilities are so strong that they ruin the game.

I had the same thought immediately with Dr Strange's portal and any other similarly long CD. For a CD to be 3 minutes long, it has to be so strong it can secure fight wins near single handedly to justify that cooldown, but now you gave a hero a cd that can near single handedly win fights! Now consider that within the context of a full kit. Either the hero is OP because they have a solid kit and every 3 minutes they can choose to win a fight, or they suck because they are bad for 3 minutes then choose to win one fight with their insane mega cooldown. Its just a really bad design idea

Re: 3rd person perspective, I think the feedback of actually seeing the abilities and projectils make contact with the player's hitbox provides valuable clarity, something Overwatch might consider if it weren't so zippy. I dont know, is there a Rivals hero that matches tracer/genji in terms of zippyness? How does that feel in the 3rd person perspective? How do the heroes interacting with zippy heroes feel(I think the 3rd person perspective favors flanked heroes more than OW's flanked heroes , IDK tho)? That said, seeing your own hero's body get smacked by effects is truer to the Moba experience (smite/paragon) that Overwatch plays footsy with. I think future Overwatch content/design should consider large characters hitboxes and how it feels to get pummeled by every single damage type in the game from multiple directions. Not knowing what or why something bad happened to you is pretty bad vibes. A post-death dmg/healing report for the last 3-6 seconds would help players(tank especially) control their health pool more. It would also help the playerbase get visual feedback on what damage types are most effective in an individual match. It's a small UI change that would go a long way as the tank player manages all these dmg sources throughout the game. Consider that the OW tank is the most responsible for self-HP/mitigation trading and space-creation. OW tanks are arguably the closest relatives to Moba Champs. This common Moba feature would help diligent/smart players manage their macro and Swap gameplay better. It would also passively teach casual players about damage typing. This feature is never overbearing or pushy and takes a mere moment to read.

Why say something is bad game design for a FPS when Marvel Rivals is NOT an FPS. FPS means "First Person Shooter" and Marvel Rivals is third person game and much closer to a MOBA than a FPS. It feels like you think of it as an FPS in order to compare it more to Overwatch. Just because a game has shooting doesn't make it an FPS.

I DUNNO....THIS IS A TOUGHIE... J/k, love your stuff. Was waiting to hear your view on this game. BTW, I know the starting map pool was small but towards the end it seemed hella bugged. Did you happen to notice same mode/map 5, 10 + times ion a row. On Samitos stream, You'd swear his lobby got banished to the shadowrealm of Thor-land payload for 6 hours Edit: about the voice acting.

Haven't played it myself as I didn't get a key in time. BUT I watched a lot of streamers playing it. Without a doubt Rivals seems to have a bad memory leak or something. I watched this game bring top tier gaming PCs to their knees. The visuals are far from enough to do that so there's obviously some optimization issues with the game.

I think a fundamental mistake is being made here: this is not a first person or third person shooter. This is a straight up MOBA with some shooter elements. Your can’t really think of this In relation to a fps game like overwatch. A much closer comparison would be something like Battenborn or gigantic, or possibly even smite. I’m really not sure how this comparison really can be made when the gameplay systems are so fundamentally different, at least when the focus comes to combat and character design. In a MOBA, certain design mechanics that couldn’t exist in a shooter have their place. So this all seems very off-putting of a comparison to me

It doesn't look like they had an idea for a team based shooter, but rather had an idea for a Marvel game. There doesn't seem to be an overall vision for what this game wants to be mechanically. I just think it's crazy I'm looking at a build that is this far along when these are the sorts of things that would be worked out in a prototype to see if the game you are spending so much time and money to make is even fun to play. For example, you want to add the concept of destructible environments... how does that fit into the mechanics and the game loop; how does this effect overall strategy and how combat is approached? Or was it something thrown on top because someone thought it would look cool? Just keep in mind, you can polish a turd but it's STILL a turd. Marvel is a big brand with characters people love. You've got that part. Now pair that with a good game or you're just throwing money down the toilet. Gameplay is king.
