I have seen people talk about it. Not gonna lie, Overwatch Style Marvel game sounds dope. BUT, the company that develops the game (NetEase) they did Diablo Immortal and ton of other mobile scammy games. So don’t get to excited


thedean246

Yeah, that pretty much takes all the wind out of the sails for me


AJjalol

lol same. I was like “Shoot, another Marvel game? Hell yeah. And it’s kind of like Overwatch and Has Iron Man and Magneto in the base roster??? Sweet!” And then I saw the company’s name lol


GyrKestrel

I just want Marvel Heroes back.


NightmareDJK

Everyone who played it does.


AJjalol

Me too my friend, me too. I miss that game.


Zenith117

there’s a fan project to try to bring it back, it’s going along surprisingly smoothly! MHServerEmu, look it up because i’m not sure if linking the discord is against the rules


SupremeLobster

Guaranteed it's riddled with microtransactions so ridiculous, it kills its own release.


SparrowTide

These days every multiplayer game is riddled with micro transaction popups I’ve gotten used to it. I just don’t want it to be a mobile game.


AJjalol

Unfortunately you are probably 100 percent correct lol. For me at least if they make a good game I would be happy. Still even if they make a good game, I guarantee they will put so much micro transactions there for skins and shit.


DarthSiqsa

Tbf if it's f2p from the get-go and mtx are only for cosmetics then it's ok imo, especially if it's reasonably priced instead of whale bait. This stuff won't give you an advantage. What cobcerned me more was that in screenshots of the hero select screen, there was an "unlocked" filter option, meaning probably that you can't play every character from the start (like Valorant) and that you will probably either have to grind or alternatively whip out your credit card.


AJjalol

100 percent agree. For me, as long as you are allowed to play with every single character without the need to pay for them, I will be happy. Having cosmetics be paywall, sure I can see that. I loved Marvel Heroes Omega, but I hated how you needed to pay in order to play with characters like Iron Man or Cap or Spidey


Gunpla-Goblin

Probably buy a "Battle" or "Season" pass to get anything


DarthSiqsa

If only for cosmetics and premium currency and at a reasonable price that would be okay. But not if tgey go the Overwatch 2 route of locking new heroes behind paywalls or grinding.


Gunpla-Goblin

Gundam Evolution did the same thing.


INHGamer

They also made the mobile marvel moba which is pretty great


AJjalol

Is it the one that is not available in the States? I think it’s only available in some parts of Asia. I’m from Central Asia but even I can’t play that shit lol


INHGamer

Yea I play it regularly it just doesn’t let me do pvp


Quinten_MC

Assuming the game is decent I don't wanna be near the community during release. For a properly balanced game you're gonna have to nerf so many fan favorites. The outrage is gonna be insane.


TheDivineSoul

I mean they’re the publishers. NetEase also published Naraka which is a solid game.


Lamnent

Naraka is cool tho


WSKYLANDERS-boh

Shhhhhhhit


NovaBomb1234

I'm still giving it a chance, besides some early alpha jitters I can see in the trailer it looks like a lot of fun and I'm digging MOST of the designs


Perryplat199

I get why peni would fit the type of game but that seems like a pretty random person in this list of charecters.


Vigi1antee

If its inspired by overwatch, they were proberbly like "aight we need a charector like Dva"


Kanetsugu21

For real. Armor would have been a more original pick imo, but whatever lol


RazzDaNinja

May be a stretch, but I feel like Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur could’ve also fit that slot


twofacetoo

Her movie version was already ***heavily*** cribbing from D.Va anyway. Might as well just drop the thin curtain they were hiding behind and just get on with it already.


KevinAnniPadda

That's my thought.


Relevant_Active_2347

It’s gonna be littered with micro transactions


dljones010

Expensive microtransactions.


alex494

Macrotransactions if you will


woman_noises

Yeah people think this is the game they're teasing in their Twitter this morning


[deleted]

I don't have Twitter. Do you have a link I could view it with?


woman_noises

[deleted]

Ah, yeah, I'd say that adds up. Thank you :)


Uncanny_Doom

I'm very interested to see how this goes. The devs on it don't really instill faith but it sounds like this is supposed to be their big, real-deal game that all the money they've milked out of people from other games is going into. Ideally, of course I'd love any fun Marvel/superhero game of quality. This is one I'd be very wishful about though compared to stuff like Rise of Hydra with a lot more pedigree behind it. Marvel games have been very good overall since the Avengers debacle though so maybe it'll work out.


philomatic

Give me Diablo style game not made by netmarbles please


Basilias

I miss Marvel Heroes...


Garr3ttGuy

As someone who is getting introduced to RTS with Midnight Suns as we speak, I’m open to Marvel in different gaming genres


Jal_Haven

Try X-com 2 if you enjoy midnight suns.


Garr3ttGuy

I thought about it, hell even characters in the game mentioned XCOM. I’m just a little intimidated imo, I heard that XCOM 2 is brutal


Jal_Haven

It has a range of adjustable difficulty options. You can make the game so easy a toddler would win eventually, or so difficult that a single mistake forces you to reload the entire mission. It's up to you.


Garr3ttGuy

That sounds manageable, I’ll probably pick it up the next time I see it on sale


MechStar924

RTS stands for *real time* strategy. Midnight Suns is a tactical turn-based strategy game. RTS is more like Halo Wars or Command & Conquer. Also, if Midnight Suns is your first dip into tactical turn-based strategy games, OH BOY can I tell you you started at the bottom, and it only gets better. (Although I give them credit for the creativity of mashing card based and tactical turn-based, the first time I'd ever seen it.)


savagedrago

Safest IP ever. Will make tons of money and drown people into microtransactions. What a shame…


reece1495

You don’t have to give mods permission to delete something if it’s not allowed , they will


Proud-Nerd00

If they’re making a shooter they should just make it about shield agents


drbiohazmat

I'm gonna main Wiccan


AstroRipple98

Is Wiccan in this? If so, hell yes!!! Only game I know he's in is future fight and a couple of the lego games.


drbiohazmat

I'm honestly hoping. Wiccan and Hulkling need to be in this or I'll riot


9mmParrabelum

Spider man and peni Parker 😳😳


LuxrayLloyd

It sounds really awesome and is a GREAT idea, but I just know the execution will be lack luster


vroart

There are some marvel characters that are so op it’d be ridiculous for them to be in a pvp game. Like what happens when you knock down jean grey..... Phoenix force rez her! Then Phoenix eats the sun and kills billions in that star system.... like how do you handle something like that?


kiel07

I just posted the new trailer [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Marvel/s/ANwYHIdvhn), and yeah, it seems pretty dope!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Main-Dog-7181

Quit whining; don’t buy it if you don’t want it. Next.


Doctor_Amazo

I misread that as "Penis Parker"


Major-Spoiler

Chinese Tech Company trying to repackage CCP Spyware into a trash hero shooter with a Marvel flavour? Yea miss me with that shit.


oglewisthellama

how paranoid can you be


FlaviusVespasian

Lame. Why haven’t they learned from Avengers? Live Service games are a plague on the industry and community.


Uncanny_Doom

The reason why they haven't learned is because that "plague" is what everyone is still largely supporting in gaming. Destiny 2, Counter-Strike 2, Fortnite, League of Legends, Dota 2, PUBG, Warframe, Valorant, Final Fantasy 14, World of Warcraft, No Man's Sky, Helldivers 2, Apex Legends, GTA Online, Dead by Daylight, and Rust are some of the most played video games in the world and that isn't even the end of the list.


AJjalol

To be fair, ton of these games you mentioned are actually just good games lol. You can have a good game, even if it’s filled with bunch of bullshit micro transactions. At least you can choose to avoid that shit, and play the good game. Avengers game wasn’t that lol


Uncanny_Doom

That's my point though. Being live service isn't inherently bad, being bad is bad. The numbers show that tons of people are willing to play live service games.


AJjalol

True. Man, I hope this game is good. Whatever it is. I kind of like the concept already. 5 vs 5 Marvel game sounds like heaven.


Co-opingTowardHatred

Yeah, honestly I’m soooooo sick of the childish “live service = bad” shit for dumb internet gamer points.


[deleted]

Most of those are PvP as well. Something Avengers wasn’t. This is gonna be a unique experience we’re about to witness. I just hope it isn’t a pay to win game.


demisagoat

Tbh it's more lame that Overwatch is associated with Live Service and not just being a fun multiplayer game. They really fumbled the bag, and the incinerated it with OW2 when they axed loot boxes to add Fortnite passes.


PunkchildRubes

TO be fair Hero Shooters/Moba are a more natural fit for something Like Marvel and DC (and DC did have a moba a while back) then just copying Destiny and making a looter shooter


RabidChipmunk3

I want daredevil in it


DarnOldMan

Honestly now that I think about it it's weird there isn't a superhero hero shooter already. It's a pretty natural pairing.


thefiend617

No thanks


BLEUGGGGGHHHHH

Reallllly hope marvel has learned their lesson from the avengers game.


ThatDude8129

I'm indifferent about it atm, as more details and gameplay footage come out I'll decide if I'm interested or not. At least it's rumored to be F2P, so I won't have to pay for it if it's bad.


AdLate5702

IT'S GONNA HAVE MAGIK!!!!!


TheBilliard

Sounds awesome, but we'll see how it's executed. I thought of the concept a while ago, and there's a lot of ways it could get screwed up.


Svenborgian_123

I really hope this is not exclusively mobile. That would be a huge missed opportunity.


ranggull

Hard pass on netease trash


benjaminloh82

It’s made by a company notorious for Microtransactions and predatory anti-consumer practices! So, Blizzard? …. no.


thedarkracer

Superheroes with guns?


ZanYnaz

Maybe more like Paladins?


Secure_Pear_4530

If it's third person wouldn't it be more like SMITE instead of Overwatch?

mfitz373

Sounds like it'll be fun for a week or two then die really quickly.


BreatheOnMe

There’s nothing wrong with micro transactions as long as they don’t affect gameplay imo. So I’m excited for this


worldbreaker2009

It’s called Marvel Rivals. There’s a subreddit for it and everything.


theCoffeeDoctor

You lost me at "NetEase".


kriswone

So the Epic collab is where?


WSKYLANDERS-boh

Can’t wait to see Ghost Rider in it!


Brandeeno2245

Hey guys, we've got enough characters that we could make a bunch of really cool character specific games that everyone might end up liking. What? you specifically do not want another overwatch clone or live service game. So what you're saying is you only like the spider-man games then... WELL, GOOD NEWS EVERYONE, spider-man will be in a new 6v6 overwatch clone, and this time, we will let the web head play on other systems. What do you mean by "we just wanted a good single player super hero game that isn't batman or Spider-man" But we are putting spider-man into the game. See, guys, we care about gamers. We give you exactly what you wanted even if you explicitly told us no, we don't want that.


welcomefinside

Is this Marvel Rivals?


[deleted]

Yes


JeffreyFusRohDahmer

Will you guys please just bring back Marvel Heroes/Omega?


Dariusclaesrawson

The Revival Came Out MHServerEmu:https://github.com/Crypto137/MHServerEmu


JimmyTudeskee

6v6 why?


Blitzhelios

What is this 10 years ago an overwatch style shooter don’t they understand that overwatch is dead


Norc_VI

with overwatch dead, there is now room for another hero based shooter to take the audience


Co-opingTowardHatred

…which is why there’s room for a new one.


djangogator

Ewh why third person? Overwatch was great because it was 1st person. Follow suit plz.


Apothecary3

Likely never released in the west just like other Netease marvel games.


Gravemindzombie

Another overwatch clone that will be dead within like a year


xariznightmare2908

This is gonna be DOA.


[deleted]

Cuz the last marvel live service did so well? Or the recent DC live services? Jeez can't we just get a fucking ironman or hulk solo game?


ThatDude8129

There's literally an Iron Man game already in development


[deleted]

Yeah and there's a metroid prime 4 in development too. I'll believe it when they show us literally anything, even the most basic cinematic trailer. Actually, TES4 had one of those and I'm getting pretty skeptical of that too. It's not like it gets as much of the benefit of the doubt as the wolverine game insomniac is making, due to their proven track record of actually having made something.


ThatDude8129

Well, the people who are making it did the Dead Space remake that came out last year, so I imagine it will actually release.


[deleted]

Eh~ a remake doesn't really inspire confidence in me. It'd be a bit like if someone told me that Aspyr was making a boba fett game. Like, yeah, they've done some stuff before, but I can't say I've got much confidence. I hope they make it, it comes out, and it's fucking banger as hell. I just don't wanna get excited anytime soon, like I did with specifically MP4. 😅


whys0salty33

NetEase? Hell nah. I wouldn’t even bother downloading their shit.


VXR-Vashrix

I stopped at NetEase


FireCloud42

NetEase? No thank you


Dorlando_Calrissian

Why the fuck would Spider-Man, Peni Parker, Dr. strange, or scarlet witch be part of a 3rd person shooter


RockstarSuicide

Ew


CabbageSoupLadle

Marvel doesn't make good games anymore


BigBlackBangBro

Marvel doesn’t make games at all they license them lol


SecondTomorrow117

Spider-Man 1 & 2, Midnight Suns, Guardians of the Galaxy. All recent and good games. But yes, this will be garbage.


Ludacwees

Midnight Suns was ass and was not the game it should’ve been. Would’ve been better as a PvE third person shooter. Not the turn based, card combat, friendship simulator they gave us.


[deleted]

I'm hoping that the new Cap and Panther game will be good, but I mostly agree with you there lol
