The Marvel Rivals survey: How dissatisfied are you with **the similar game** mentioned in the previous question? TOOK ME OUT. An opportunity to dump on the state of Overwatch? Say less🤣🤣🤣

[@narutoaccount24]

All games will be similar to eachother u can't say everything will be A copy of something but it's own Identity

You literally picked "similar game" is Asks you for what similar game do you play. It wasn't dumping on overwatch at all, they are learning from others mistakes which is important

That's how Chinese game companies gets people to play their derivative games. "Look at what the awful western company is doing, now look at this product, it's [thing] without [thing you dont like]." Transparent, but, it works on some people. And that's enough. Spilo correctly note that Marvel Rivals can only run because Overwatch walked. It owes its existence and playerbase to the original game and Marvel IP. It's an amalgation not unlike AI randomly assembling things through market forces than any kind of passion or heart.

[@Ntryzn6184]

I have two issues with balance in this game. Hela and Hawkeye being the strongest heroes that kill almost anyone in one second. I see them literally in every single game on both side. Dive against them is almost impossible because of their crazy damage, escapes and the second issue: support sustain, mainly how stupidly fast their ultimates are generated. Every single time when I ult their Mantis and Luna have their two Domain Expansions: Infinite Health for 12 seconds.

[@StoicScape219]

People are also a bit obligated to play busted dps because the sustain is so crazy. Double supports like Luna Mantis is nasty business

[@waltuh-gr2gk]

Nerf the healing, and I think hela/hawkeye would balance themselves out. Like you said the issue is the sustain, and dive players haven’t even mastered their characters yet. Psylock is still far more busted than any dps at the moment, she actually needs a direct nerf.

Yeah, struggling with this too as an OW player. I've stopped playing after a brief return for season 9 since I can't stand 5v5. Now that 6v6 is coming for a test, I wanted to give it another shot but finding myself not particularly motivated because I'm playing Rivals every night right now and feel like that's more than enough to scratch the itch for a hero shooter. Feel like the 6v6 really came a little too late.

@@StriderZessei yeah lets see marvel rivals win goty

[@aerostrafe1075]

It does make me wonder what people want a strategist to do when it comes to healing. People want enough healing that they can make a play but they don't want enough healing to keep them from making a play on something else. Loki has to set up clones in proper places to get his burst healing then they need to be up long enough for him to get value yet people still complain he heals too much when he jumps through those hoops properly. No one is going to want to perform like a seal in a pool with a ball balanced on their nose to do a minimal amount of healing to the point they were better off damaging the threat over healing an ally a majority of the time. I think thats what people are after but thats not why most people pick to play a support in games most of the time.

[@GraphiteBlimp27]

Sup AeroStrafe. Yeah I think there’s 2 issues combined that make it a weird balance to strike. 1. Rivals is actually so much faster than OW, I’ve heard people call it slow but I don’t get that. Supports need to be able to quickly heal while the opportunity is there before their teammate flies off. I haven’t played much ranked (my pc loads me in sometimes a minute into the round), but in QP my experience has been people don’t really group. Sure we may start grouped but the reality is everything is so mobile and “super” you’re not going to have your teammates conveniently bundled together in your LOS on support. 2. Open queue means supports may find themselves solo healing, I think both that player and their teammates want to be able to solo heal viably, but in the chaos I mentioned before, this means they need to heal a lot. The issue comes up when you actually have 2 supports focus healing a target, it becomes impossible to pierce the healing.

[@aerostrafe1075]

@@GraphiteBlimp27 That is the tough part overall. I think if two support are pocketing something then you are getting value of the rest of that team is no longer getting as much healing. People don't like that kind of value though since its not a visible kill for them and relies on your team to take advantage which often doesnt happen. I will say if one dps can kill a target through two supports pumping heals into it then thats also just as bad. If one duelist can kill through two pockets then that duelist is impossible to stop from within the strategist section less you just CC them or somehow outfight them.

[@bwill1268]

@@GraphiteBlimp27hey I had the long pc loading time too. To fix the issue you have to install the game directly to your hard drive instead of downloading it to your external ssd

[@bbombastiq]

I don’t main support but I play support in almost every game I play (league, ow, rivals, ect) I don’t enjoy playing to healbot, I love being able to provide meaningful utility, and making plays. I think supports should be designed to make plays through big utility, like Cloak blinds and wraith, ana nades, lucio’s amp, and in league playing characters like thresh who can set up kills for his team on a golden platter. I think healbotting is boring to play as AND against, and I think if supports were made to be more so characters with UTILITY, decent but not best of the class dueling, and maybe some healing baked into there somewhere instead of “let me pump my sometimes auto aimed healing into you from timbuktu and turn my brain off” then support would be a way more fun role in general. I think there should be perhaps a few easy “healbotty” sups like Jeff, but Jeff will never outmatch c&d’s usefulness in the hands of a good player. Majority of sups should be c&d’s and lucio ana zens, and less moira LW’s and Jeffs

[@brodrickbaker]

@@GraphiteBlimp27 which isn’t a problem, if two healers are focused on one target you shouldn’t be able to kill them, but that means you’re occupying 3 people on the other team so in theory the other 5 people on yours should be able to make a play

6:00 Thank you! Self heal as a mechanic was by far one of the best things that happened to Overwatch 2. In a game where characters are really powerful and feel self sufficient, I think that mechanic would make the game even better. Team- up abilities also encourage people to play different roles. I really don't think role lock in needed.

[@brodrickbaker]

I don’t necessarily disagree but I think if they add self healing then nobody will ever play support because we still get 1 or 0 support games even without it

[@bekomon]

​@@brodrickbaker People also thought it would make supports less relevant in OW, but they will always be useful because of sustain mid fight. That's the part that matters the most.

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

I think this mechanic is godawful, it dumbs down the whole structure of the genre. Poke, dive and brawler, then you have tank, dps and healers who falls on these categories... if you let all of them self-heal, that not only diminishes the healers, but also incentivize people even more to pick 6 dps. This mechanic should be avoided at all costs imo, only few characters can actually self-heal (which is ironic, considering the horrendous Wolverine design)

[@matthewbrears2129]

@@RRRRRRRRR33 as a tank/support player, I genuinely think they should have leaned into everyone basically being a DPS. Majority just want to kill things and don’t want to play as a team anyway, so instead of trying to force people to play tank/support to make the game work, just give in and allow 6 DPS work. It would lose everything that made it fun for me (tank synergy/combos/teamwork) but would satisfy DPS player who want basically deathmatch

[@bekomon]

@@RRRRRRRRR33 Damn, you make it sound like it's a perma mercy pocket. I can tell you it has definitely not made supports any less relevant in OW and when it comes to 6 DPS, trust me people WILL play 6 DPS no matter what, even with role lock, because they don't want to heal. Thats why OW designed more and more Duelist Supports with braindead abilities and also butchered a lot of the Heroes' identities. As a supp player myself, I've wanted self heal since OW1 and I want it again as soon as possible in Rivals.

I can understand sustain being too high and to a point I agree, but there are games in D2-D1 area where me and my second support will combine for over 100k heals and lose.

Yeah this game is fun and balanced for sure. Jeff the shark eating 3 of the team mates and jumping off the map is really chill. Team up passives are not broken OP on some champs. Map design is really good. 👌

[@itsbeeva]

Overwatch set a competitive standard and then started going against that, but Marvel can go another direction if they want. They should just make up their mind and be transparent about it. They definitely should nerf the sustain, but other than that, I don’t mind how broken everything is because it’s most characters.

[@202adr]

The sustain doesn't necessarily need to get nerfed, the ultimate charges yes 100%, but sustain itself is fine. There are so many game where people are just shit and unaware in plat and under, so the sustain makes no difference, while in higher ranks the biggest issue is the supports just have ults every fight because they can do so much in a fight. From damage boost, to debuffing, to healing, to damage themselves and so on.

[@Jamesington]

I mostly agree. My biggest complaints with this game right now are the sustain, especially support ults like Luna and Mantis. They last so long and make the enemies unkillable. My other issue is the tank role. They feel basic and not impactful compared to OW tanks. Big slabs of meat that don't really do much besides soak damage.

[@Hazo_Yt]

Then you ain't playing them right

[@Jamesington]

@@Hazo_Yt Maybe the game should make Tank characters that are intuitive/easy to pick up and also fun then. They managed it for the other 2 roles.

[@willtheconqueror6148]

Also….be careful with DPS supports. I was a Bap/Kiriko/Zen player in masters in overwatch and we all know DPS mains just bitch and moan when they can’t run over a support. That’s why they love Juno/Ana because those two supports get cooked easy and aren’t the duelists that others are

[@DrJayPlays]

The best thing about Marvel Rivals is the clear POTENTIAL. Because its the most popular IP, we all know possible characters that can drop: Ghost Rider, Silver Surfer, Thanos, Ultron... infinite choice. THat thought alone gets Me hyped.

[@mrkisukes]

I think an approach they should consider is, similar to your proposal to nerf healing if a team is running triple support, is to go in the opposite if a team is only running one of a certain role. If a team only has one support, give that support a boost to healing; one tank gets a boost to health, dps gets a boost in damage. Might be a terrible idea, but hey, better than immediately just resorting to role locking like with OW and potentially making all the same mistakes.

[@Still-Struggling]

Hopefully Ultron has an ability where he can send a drone to an enemy that prevents them from getting healed. It should be destructible though

[@Malxer]

If they wanna keep it fun casual then they should buff everything. For instance, Hulk's ult is so bad. There's no way people survive after getting grabbed and beaten to death by The Hulk.

[@ddayMOBBIN]

Hulk ult is insane. It makes gamma burst a 1 second cooldown and almost doubles the damage. Literally just never use world breaker.

There needs to be a trade off for AOE heals. Look at Lucio, he pumps out AOE heals but the trade off is that he can’t pocket a single character effectively. Dagger should not be able to pump out max heals with the bubble/window combo on the ENTIRE team. Healing can either be effective to single targets or groups, it can’t be both.

[@RRRRRRRRR33]

Healers can be that crazy because the dps are also crazy, Winter Soldier with 3 shots instead of 2 is just pure insanity lol Hela, Hawkeye, Psylocke, etc.. they are all overtuned. Black Panther can clean house with just his cooldown resets. Lots of fire power and healing in this game, not much tanking. Jeff and Iron Fist are a menace at lower ranks, Jeff resembles day 1 Brigitte, insane rewards for braindead abilities, the swimming is instantaneous, no cooldown or anything, it self heals, defense buff, speed buff, lol main fire is super fast, Jeff can spread 5 bubbles in less than a seconds, etc.. Brigitte is rolling on her grave

6v6 is fun, characters are fun, tanks and supports are ass compared to overwatch. Tanks especially are boring as hell compared to overwatch. Supports are more fun in comparison but they are straight up broken. Worse than overwatch with the broken supps. Luna snow is my fav but shes insane.

[@Miyamura.04]

Is there a problem with having role lock in comp and keep casual games as is. Because that stops the triple support spam in high elo and also keeps the current casual situation the same, especially if you add global regen to casual (maybe comp too) Could do 1, 3, 2 role lock to encourage more proactive play

[@Bighoodiekid]

I believe the role that would suffer the most from support nerfs is actually tanks. They're not really that strong, and even some of the more tanky ones like a strange or a groot just fall over if they're not getting healed

[@Crosroad]

7:47 you absolutely need a role lock because otherwise you're just going to get people who queue for support/tank and just lock DPS. I used to do public dungeons as support in Elder Scrolls Online and more than half of the "tanks" I ran into were just DPS who didn't want to have to go through the longer wait. EDIT: To be clear I don't want role lock and I don't think they should add it, but having a "preferred" role would do nothing except make people even more toxic

[@comandeur1444]

[@WhiteFang103]

Strategist class should be a hybrid between damage and healer. Not insane heals and not insane damage. Enough damage to be able to 1v1 a duelist if they use their kit right, and not insane sustain heals (i win button) where they can just press a button and be untouchable for half a year. When the heals aren't too insane in the game it means Vanguard and Duelists can get picks because the damage amount can out damage the heals if focused long enough or caught a target off guard. This means that those who like Duelists can also find enjoyment in playing Vanguard & Strategist because they too would work as "damage dealers" that can score eliminations.

[@poom3193]

Marvel Rivals needs to have completely separate balancing for both the casual and competitive audiences of this game. Let the casual audience be able to hop on the game and play their favorite superheroes and villains without having to worry about their favorite characters being nerfed into an unplayable state because of "x" reasons, and for the competitive players, the players who actually want a competitive experience where balance is at the forefront of every decision, let them have that but don't try and do one or the other like what Blizzard did with Overwatch. The Overwatch developers completely shit the bed by making the entirety of the game hyper-competitive, which alienated the casual audiences and made them leave in droves. It's not black or white; I have faith that the Netease developers are capable of cultivating both audiences so that everyone may thrive.

[@markgelinas6114]

As a vanguard(Peni/Magneto) player I think they need to make Strategists a little bit more interesting; not so that I personally can play them but instead so that others want to. Many healers are just click and shoot heros and I think a dive based healer would be great. I agree heavily with a passive heal during non-combat situations.

[@Kryptic245]

With what they've said about their balancing strategy for the future if they were to tackle the sustain issue their solution would probably be to lower the time to kill by buffing everyone's damage.

[@Odd_Bin]

I agree with the support issues. There was one match where literally my entire team was shooting at dagger and she just stayed at full health didn’t even drop below half. She was healing herself and I think it was a mantis healing her so it was nutty and we lost the game because of that.

[@therefinedgentleman3671]

Sustain is strong imo due to long range burst damage so if that was turned down and sustain was turned down you would hit that goldie locks zone. Not big changes were all healing is reduced by 50%, but maybe 10-20%. Small steps towards an end goal is the best way.

[@uyeah1234]

Add thanos, and its instantly a master piece. I want to punch people as thanos doesnt need to be any more complicated make me big purple titan man who punches stuff. They somehow missed huge fan favourites while including the main streams ones as well. Who on earth wanted luna snow or psylocke over thanos? His infinty war saga comic is one the highest selling and biggest events comics ever. They add all the gurdains of the galaxy but not draxx? Where is dare devil or galactus? Where is dead pool? Ant man? Ghost rider? Silver surfer?They choose a really weird cast overall. If they wanted their game to explode even more why not go whole hog and make all popular characters first then the mote niche stuff.

[@r33pr]

They probably didn’t want to go all out on release to where there won’t be asmuch excitement going forward, like you mentioned when they release Thanos it’ll be huge and get people excited again if they pair that with some sick cosmetics it’ll be even bigger.. it’s gone be great 😂

Sustain is not a problem because long fights feel like a real super hero battle, whereas short ones feel like cod.

[@heiko2255]

While i do think Marvel Rivals is pretty fun, it doesnt hook me like OW did and at its peak i think Overwatch is miles better than Rivals. Right now with 5v5 and the horrible balancing i feel like Rivals is better, but if they return to 6v6 in the future i dont see myself playing Rivals. The Feedback on Damage, Healing and Kills dont feel Satisfying to me, getting multiple Elims in OW back to back is hype but i dont know it just doesnt seem impactful in Rivals. At the moment, the Game doesnt need that much Teamwork, you often can just do what you want, granted in a few months this could change when people learn the game but it doesnt feel like team work is that necessary, some of the most fun in OW comes from teamplay so thats something i dislike in rivals. Another thing is, some Hero Designs are just pretty boring, I used to main tank in OW1 and most OW Tanks are way more simplistic than Rivals Tanks but they just feel better to play and are more fluid, the tanks in rivals have very bloated kits or play Clunky. Thor who is actually my favourite of the tanks, doesnt even feel good because of his cooldwon cycle resetting to 1sec when you use Dash or throw Mjolnir. But a Hero like winston who only has a Jump and a Bubble makes me enjoy myself way more when playing, his kit has less stuff but it feels like i can do more with it. Also, even though there are some Heroes with huge Skill expression like Psylocke or Spider-man, basically every ult in the Game is so low skill its insane. 12 Ults just spawn a Circle that you have to click, basically every ult is some kind of AoE Damage or AoE Healing or it just buffs your character. Not one ult in Rivals is as Skillful as a Dragonblade or a Tracer pulse imo. I also learned i like this game as casual game more than ranked game, i won like 15 ranked games back to back and they were pretty chill, but then i got into a gold 1 lobby were people tryharded and i enjoyed the game 10x less which is weird because i love tryharding in Overwatch. Maybe its because the balance is so whacky but i dont see this game becoming big competitively it could be a big casual game though. Overall i hope its a healthy competitor to Overwatch and makes Blizzard actually fucking try for once, but i dont see myself playing this in like 3-6 Months from now.

I’m real curious to see people’s opinions in a few months once everyone figures out the broken stuff and gets bored of the simple kits and not having a tank/support every game. But I’ll be real I don’t understand all the shitting on OW. I genuinely think it might be in its best state ever for me personally. Balance is great, I can literally pick any hero and do great. A few are too easy to get value on/are annoying but nothing major. Map changes are good. New game modes. I like the new heroes. Clash, Mauga, and the two reworks have been the biggest failures imo.

[@matrixyst]

i definitely agree on the impact thing, idk if it's visuals or sound or ui or a combination of all 3 but things just don't "feel." im playing a lot of deadlock atm and comparatively theres just substantially less of that subjective rush in rivals when you do something good (and obviously ow for all of its problems has that department on lock)

@@DJWolfHouse Best State? To me not even close 5v5 is one thing, but i dont need to bring that up it has so many issues and stuff that makes it unfun i would be typing 100 paragraphs on why it sucks Other than 5v5, just the Season 9 patch that increased Health Pools and hitboxes ruined the game even more, they screwed many Heroes with the breakpoint changes, hitscan dominate the game all the time (eg. Widow, Soj, Ashe, etc.) and it just lowered variety in heroes All the Heroes permanently get buffs or other changes that lower their skill requirement which makes the game cater to lower skill players instead of earning being good at a Hero for example - Bap got 30% recoil reduction - Lucio falls faster during ult so he cant die as easily - Illari Ult explosion got bigger The Balance team does stuff like this all the time, but this doesnt make people come back and play and to those who still play its really annyoing But overall Overwatch is a very polished game and even if i hate 5v5 and what its done to the game the Heroes are still amazing

I played a game of 3VAN/3SRT and it was nigh-impossible to get a kill. I’d imagine a well coordinated and high skilled team would be a nightmare.

im really not a fan of high sustain because it makes goats viable and makes you have no need for DPS, this is also why I really don't like the idea of giving support more of a damage dealing role because again, it makes DPS irrelevant.

Just saying you cant complain about people not putting in an effort if you aren't either. And role lock doesnt help that issue either. Garbage players are going to be garbage players whether locked to a role or not it makes no difference. Role lock actually exaggerates the issue. Because you then cant swap to help. Good players actually swap in the game. The only way to fix bad players is to make them realize that they are the issue and make them help themsleves by actually learning the damn game.
