This was my biggest problem with valorant. They only cared about competitive and pro scene so much so that the casual part of the game got super stale, and the only updates to the game are skins and balance changes. As someone who avoids competitive, im so glad rivals is catering to the casual scene
@lovethepandainyou10 күн бұрын
This game feels 100% like casual with a semblance of a smidge of competitive play. If they want to get a competitive game, they need to change some core features, plain and simple. But as an actual casual game, I enjoy this a lot more than OW2.

@@RiftEnalios disagree. If they do for fun balance changes, and everything remains strong as hell, there will be a lot of different choices at high level competitive play. Some heroes may fall to irrelevancy at high level, but as long as they remain decent at all levels it should be fine.

I was also the person who picked up the "less popular" roles like tank and support, because i was less mechanically gifted, and I wanted to at least allow everyone else to have fun. Like flats, I came to OW1 on PC from console in 2018, and I sucked at aiming and poking. In OW1 I basically followed flats mentality of "Im not as good as the 5 dudes playing dps on the team, so Ill just play tank/sup and enable them and have fun doing that." 12:28 But honestly, now ive gotten pretty good mechanically. Ive gotten especially good at fast placed, high movement, assassin like gameplay cause of playing lucio and ball. Now with Spider-man, Im so ready to become the selfish dps one-trick. Hes incredibly fun to play and I love having a melee assasain high mobility dps who can wallride like Lucio and grapple like Ball. I love this character so much, he combines alot of my favorite things and is a dps on top of that. Overall im super excited for this game. I dont want it to kill Overwatch (or my beloved wreckingball and lucio) but i DO hope it does well.

I will say, my one complaint so far after playing like 9 hours last night with some friends, i didn’t say it to them but I thought it when going to sleep, this game needs more maps and I hope they try to prioritize them a bit more than characters for the early stages at least. Like there being only 8 maps feels a bit rough, that’s not even 3 maps for each of the modes. Hell there was a point where we got the spider man hybrid map 3 games in a row. Not a big complaint, just kinda wish there was at least 10 for the launch.

Like Wolverine is a huge space taker, ironman can force people off of corners. It's not a one for one for sure, but these imbalanced comps work because most characters can kinda do multiple things. The playstyles you can get out of each character can work and it works well.

It kinda makes me wish that they didn't add tank role at all, and made some heroes like Groot and Magneto more utility-focused DPS like Symmetra. Especially because they seemed very reluctant to give tanks hard CC except on ults, the role just feels like it's in a weird spot to me. Cap and Thor already feel like bruiser DPS heroes that hit like wet noodles but don't die, so just up the numbers to compete with melee DPS heroes, and reduce their HP.
@Capn_Chunk10 күн бұрын
You could literally make the same argument about heroes like Tracer and Pharah where they can make insane space in there own way opposed to a Tank Sigma or Rein but taking space isn't just what a Tank is all about. It's also about being this big violent threat that can sustain and draw aggro forcing high value abilities that your team can take advantage of. Look at Ana sleep dart. If a Winston jumps on an Ana and puts his bubble in a good enough position then when they try to sleep him it'll be blocked and Ana now becomes extremely vulnerable to another dive as that cooldown is very valuable for Ana

I was pretty leery about the game tbh. My initial thought was that they were using the Marvel IP as a gimmick and that it would wouldn't feel great to play, but I decided to give it a try anyway. Boy was I wrong. The characters feel great and feel seamless in the game modes. They did such a good job making the melee characters feel great and diverse. I've put in about 10 hours so far with 8 of them being on Iron Fist and he feels so fun. Pretty much all of my games have been 1 tank, 3 dps, 2 supports and that feels pretty good. Even playing against 2 tanks didn't feel overly oppressive. Healing feels pretty strong but dive characters are also pretty great. So far the only thing that I've felt was pretty broken was Mantis sleep mostly because it feels like it has a massive hit box but I don't have enough experience playing other characters to tell what feels really strong. I highly recommend the game. Maybe just because it's new but it feels very OW1 release to me as far as it feeling like an arcade game with everyone just messing around and doing wacky things but I agree that it doesn't feel like an OW clone or anything.

@@adragoongoon5666 Dude I am not saying you can't be fast past that age but it is literally scientific fact that human reaction times generally peak in their twenties. The same 30 year old that's faster than the both of us would have better raw reaction speeds at a younger age. I think you're mistaking my point as a means of saying that you can't be better than younger people as an older person. My point is that as you get older, relative to your younger self, your raw reaction speeds will decline and you will tend to have to account for that through strategy and planning in conjunction with your accumulated skills more so than just relying on flicking to the next target that pops up on the edge of the screen. I'm also not saying it's a particularly massive margin for everyone. Hell, it's not even that big of a margin for me. But it is absolutely *a* factor for the vast majority of people, even if it's not *the* factor. Edit: Also there's of course the factor of time spent training to polish up and tighten your reaction times, that's again not what I'm referring to though. Of course if you practice a thing enough you're gonna get better at reacting to things by nature of preparedness for the events in question, but you can't really train your raw reaction speeds, just effective ones. Again, all else equal (i.e an 18 y/o with a 30y/o's experience), your younger self will probably have an edge over your older self. And this doesn't even take into consideration that, in the context of gaming, the younger self inherently gets more exposure to practice the game, whereas the older self will have responsibilities that will inherently make them rustier more often.

I like each game I play for what it is, THAT game. I enjoy Overwatch, Valorant, and now Marvel Rivals for what they are. Overwatch is a nostalgic game, whose characters I love as well as the lore, and how the characters play. Valorant I'm newer to, but I like the play style of that game also, as well as how unique the character abilities are. It is frustrating at times I do admit though. Marvel Rivals so far is fun, I appreciate how much love was put into the game to make it as accurate to each character as possible, as well as how it gives us the lore for the characters too. It not being a first person shooter was an adjustment for me a little, but I don't mind it! Every game has its issues, but that doesn't take away from the fact you can still love them for what they are imo. :)

The thing I think people are missing is that if you want your balanced hero shooter that you can be sweaty in and be competitive, Overwatch is still right there. I think Marvel Rivals focusing on the fun, and more trying to replicate the heroes in this franchise the best they can with the limitations of a hero shooter, is something cool to have. And if people do stick to it, a competitive scene will bud up on its own. The players can be the ones making the rule sets and tournaments on their own. And things can change with every season because of the team up mechanic. The devs don’t have to worry about making some league right off the bat, they just need to focus on making fun heroes and making more maps to play on. Maybe even create different modes for people to have fun with.

I don't care if the game is balanced, I just want it to be fair. And as someone who mains Magik, there are rarely times in which the game is fair. There's realistically nothing I can do into hela, widow, or hanzo, let alone all three on one team. hela can just bird 3 miles away, widow can push me and sprint away, hanzo uses his push and double jump. But if any of that doesn't work, they just all 2 tap me and I can't play. I know the solution is to swap to something else, but in a game all about power fantasy and being able to pick whatever and go crazy, I find Magik to be the most fun character in the game. Then there's other characters like iron fist who gets 2 seconds of invulnerability like a kiri nade, ontop of unstopable like mauga in one ability, AND gives you like 150 extra hp. Then every attack he uses dashes to the target over and over making it impossible to run, and every hit lowers his cooldowns making his block like 3 seconds between each. I could go on with how many other characters are just flat out better or can just completely ignore her, but there's too many.

i definitely see this - when i played, melee characters would tend to absolutely STRUGGLE against any competent player. i played a lot of mantis because people usually just picked duelists, and especially with her sedate (literally an AOE sleep), melee characters would just get destroyed if they tried to make a play. at least in overwatch, ana's sleep is most often a skill shot but i would just throw out a sedate and if it's some poor close-ranged duelist, they usually just die. that's not even mentioning them getting like 2-3 tapped by both other duelists and strategists😭

I didn't even realized how much I missed playing a game where you could actually SEE how much the devs care about the game and their players That being said, I personally think the only problems that I've experienced so far is that the game is not very friendly with people that doesn't have a rlly good pc, the optimization needs a lot of work and the worst thing I've been experiencing so far is just how fast you need to be to log in a match. I played SOOOO many matches where people ( and myself included ) just couldn't load in time bc is just TOO FAST!! And also, when we're finally in, the match has already started and the enemy took all the advantage bc our team was left with less players to help or even do something. I just wish they did something kinda similar to League of legends, where you need wait for every player to load in the match to start the game, 'cause honestly? It's very frustating. Our team doesn't have fun bc there 1-2 players that couldn't load in time and 'cause of that they stay in disavantage, and the player that didn't load in time also doesn't have fun bc the match is already in so much disavantage or even already lost deppending in how much time it took to them being able to load in, it's simply not fun, you can't enjoy or even play the game properly at all like that. And it's pretty sad to see it happening in almost every game that I play, there's always 1-2 players that have this problem or even myself. It sucks so much 'cause we all just want to play the game and have fun but we get left behind bc of this I just really hope they do something about it, because I rlly don't want to uninstall the game and I want to keep playing it but sometimes I just can't!!!

The only thing I can say is that most support ults aren't "No one can die now buttons" but more so "Lets run them over" buttons.

Luna, Jeff, Mantis are must picks for their ultimate/kit alone. Lots of the melee characters are being dominated by hitscan. Tanks are fine except for a few. Being strong is fine but some ults and abilities just stop you from having fun forcing a switch. These are just my opinions and subject to change. I don't think anything is broken but some characters have unfair advantages towards a majority of the rooster.
@MrReindeerIRL10 күн бұрын
I can see where that's a thing but I'll like to bring up that every character behaves based on what they are supposed to do not what players want them to do. That's where most people get the balancing wrong, you are supposed to learn what the main idea of the character is and you must adept to that. OW makes these characters based on a mixture of things players want, players don't adept to the characters instead the characters are adapted to them. This is why it seems like there's a lack of creativity at OW, they put themselves in a loop that made their players less independent so that they take whatever they release. That's the major factor of Rivals, these characters already exist and already have their main missions placed down. There is no balancing a game where every character is a hard counter to another character in the game. Players actively need to adept to whatever enemy comes their way, hence why the meta of this game won't be stable if players use the old way of thinking. This game is not OW, they might share the "hero shooter" title but aside from that players need to build something new and this is why I like this game, after years on end we finally got a game that forces its players to actually think instead of being meta tier list machines

Then there's iron fist, another melee character of the same difficulty (by the games standards), who just dances between targets with no risk in his playstyle. Heck he can absolutely destroy Iron man and storm. A melee character.

Ngl I’ve had more fun in these past 24 hours of playing MR than I’ve had the last 5 years of playing OW. To me, MR is better lol. Will it kill OW tho? No. The pay pigs alone will keep OW alive for years to come with the non stop Kiriko and mercy skins

And I don't think it will kill overwatch because it doesn't feel like overwatch It feels different and because of that I don't think it will replace overwatch

Exactly man. If anything, OW is the OW killer.

XDefiant achieved 1 million players within the first two and a half hours of its launch window in May 2024, and averaged 300,000 concurrent players within the first 48 hours it was available to play. The player count in the first few days matters but also not so important😂

Yeah it seems like games will explode for a few weeks and then die out after about a month or two. Saw that with a ton of games the past year or two. Palworld comes to mind.

440k players for the first day isn't that insane, in fact it's worse considering the Marvel IP attached to it, should be bringing in way more players. I forget which "overwatch killer" it was because like 8 have been released this year but they also had several hundred thousand players the first week and now a few months later its at 40-50k on average.
@InsomniacUN10 күн бұрын
Considering the amount of players on console, 444k on Steam alone is definitely insane. If OW2 and The Finals are still going strong as F2P games, this game is already outpacing them both (and yes, that's likely from the IP alone).

@zeporion609110 күн бұрын
@@scarletspyder1165 yeah I don’t believe it. Every other tank can protect your team and he can’t secure a kill if the enemy team is in any way competent. Yeah if you dive into a bunch of Neanderthals with no healers you’ll do fine. But against their ancestors who had time to evolve and develop higher brain functioning to play video games you just jump in, exist in the back while all your damage gets healed, and then run away. That’s best case scenario.

@damianvaldez939010 күн бұрын
@@zeporion6091enough with the weird and forced details. It’s so tryhard. Look, he’s not a tank that protects his team by design. He is literally offensively oriented and creates space solely based on that idea. Dive doesn’t typically get rewarded by just existing. You literally do need to take advantage of bad positioning. You ARE a tank, so he does do good damage but he also has a large healthpool with 2 over health abilities. That’s why tanks don’t do duelist level damage. That’s why typically, a duelist is there to clean up bc they should help their tanks😂.

overwatch and rivals both have a lot to learn from each other. they fixed the issues that prevented me (linux user) from playing. i think rivals could really learn from overwatch on visual clarity, and overwatch could learn a lot from rivals on hero design (and also keeping your ult charge between rounds of control)

A good chunk of the roster has the same "gun" with the same fire rate. The production isn't as tight. The voice lines are borderline annoying. The gameplay is a little "clunkier". It's good. It's just not that good.

Also your, right these two game do feel different enough and it’s making me struggle to find characters I wanna play. I’ll pick someone up and realise they’re kinda like whatever overwatch hero. But not enough to feel how I want it to feel and so I move to the next character. That’ll get easier with time but in my first 3 hours I couldn’t find a tank I liked
