It is very heavily rumored and hinted at that Captain Marvel is secretly in the game too
Marvel's Avengers - Beta impressions
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Yeah, I tried playing Contest of Champions and it suffers from this as well but at least the tier system there somewhat makes sense. Barely. I don't remember if this plagued older X-Men/Marvel RPGs.
The confirmed launch ones are:
Cap
Iron Man
Hulk
Thor
Black Widow
Ms. Marvel
People are starting to think there could be a surprise character being kept hidden who'll be in the launch game which is
Captain Marvel
It's so weird how Marvel games of the past decade keep trying to make ISO-8 a thing. It's not interesting, Marvel. It's never been interesting.
and That shit barely shows up in the comics, it's suffocating.
Yup, I genuinely cannot remember the last time I saw it in a book.
Like if it was cool it would be one thing. But it's just fucking rocks.
Anyone have good Kamala impressions? Them supporting launch with a Muslim character who isn't always cherished is why I'm interested in this.
I like her quite a bit. Her and widow are my favorites so far
So... My quick thoughts on Avengers are here but I'll post them in here.
Played for 2 hours on stream. Issues and all. I had to stop the stream due to the game crashing so hard I had to restart my PC.

All that being said though, I like the mechanics of the game. I do know someone mentioned the short missions that are only 4-5 min long but I think those are good for folks who arent looking for long play sessions or running dailies or what not. I wish there was a better indicator of which ones are which.
I also have concerns about improvements to characters after launch. It's not even so much the whole "only 6 characters available", but how are they going to update or iterate on characters as time moves on. This would impact longevity IMO, as the launch cast can't be "finished" in a sense. Will they get new skills and mechanics? And how often should we expect them? They don't have a big enough cast to leave them untouched after say, 12 months.

It does look like the skill trees keep going, and there's also very clearly a Secondary skill tab we don't have access to in the beta. There should be more room to expand the main 6.
As someone who wasn't particularly intrested in playing her, she's actually really fun and quite good.
Ah yeah that's a good point. That's reassuring to know.
The missions have different icons that show what kind they are and the short ones are called "drop zones"
it's just about every lobby i'm in. I like to think they just don't know they have to ready up but some people that do it are higher leveled and it's ridiculous!
she feels great to play - her powerset is reflective of the character and satisfying to use even at my low levels. i imagine she only gets better as more things unlock.
The shorter missions are Drop Zones, the longer mini-open-world missions are War Zones.
Marvels Avengers |OT| HOLY FUCKING SHIT PRESS "LAUNCH MISSION" YOU DENSE ASSHOLE JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
Not sure about the skill trees expanding but there are two more skill trees in the full game.
One tree is all about your heroic attacks and the other one is all about changing how your attacks and such work. An example we saw was Thor creating lightning explosions when he throws Mjolnir but losing the ability to pin people
Nice. :) Def looking forward to trying it out. Looking for a website with all the costumes too. They should really make a south Asian outfit for her.
Won´t say anything new about the game itself other than it is just not my thing and very boring.
but the thing that got my blood boiling is the fact that there is no setting for the really obnoxious motion blur on the PS4Pro.
this coupled with the dynamic resolution which kicks in often and extremely blurry menus with a smallish font leads to a game that makes my eyes hurt and i say this as someone wearing glasses.
on top of that the screen is shaking like a rollercoaster. wtf were they thinking? this game is definitely a contender for the visual noise award 2020.

Cool character (her book is AMAZING), but she gets awesome in game after upgrading her polymorph tree. Her counter + whirlwind attack are CRUCIAL. Once I remembered I had the intrinsic meter with her and started using it all the time I had a lot of fun.
Everytime I watch someone's combo video I feel like crap lol. Just got Widow to level 15 and really had fun with her but no way am I pulling off crazy combos.
Maybe next weekend I'll focus on Ms Marvel since I've put in a decent amount of time on IM and BW.
*You guys think Cap will be using a grappling hook to get around too?

They really should change that to "Ready?". Many players are likely waiting for whoever they believe is the leader to launch a mission.
This is one heavy ass game.
I can hit 60fps at 1080p High, with the res scaling enabled. Without scaling, framerate stays in the mid 40's to low 50's, but the drop in IQ is kind of nasty. It's even using all 8GB's of vram.

I am curious about this too. I suspect they might give Cap a silly double jump? Lol
maybe a grappling hook but i'm thinking he's just going to have a high jump and like maybe a wall jump
just tried it again for a while. Can't do it. The excessive screen shake mixed with the blur makes me want to vomit.
Hope the game gets options to completely disable both.

Nixxes seems to have taken approach of "PC's can just throw power at it and brute force it" with this port.
I so hope this build it months old and not month old.
Just the nameplate you unlock for finishing the HARM challenge.
Book? If you mean her comics, yes!
Are there roles in this game like tank/DPS/healer? If so what is she?
Screen shake is insane, but someone posted earlier that they are aware of that problem and want to patch it.
Finally got to play the game on both the base PS4 and on my PC. My rig is nowhere near high end, AMD 3500 w/ 1060 6GB, and it didn't seem to perform that much better. At least not enough to bypass the Spidey exclusive so PS4 it is.
Seriously, all the crazy motion blur, screen shake and horrible looking unintelligible particle effects clearly have an impact on performance as well. i just don't understand who thought it was a good idea to fill the screen with so much crap that it not only looks terrible, it tanks the performance. And I honestly enjoy the gameplay. It's so crazy how much better optimized the San Francisco portion is when it is the clearest and most visually pleasing as well... sad to say this game is going to be the anthem. So much wasted potential.
More maddening than people not readying up is all of the people on the subreddit and Discord saying "Oh it's okay, Quickplay/Quickmatch are in release, this won't be a problem."
Motherfuckers why are you taking it for granted it'll work when it's not part of the beta. Let me play the game dammit.
