It feels kind of weird how uncertain everyone is about the actual game content here. I kind of suspect that sheer roster size is supposed to replace the customization missing from each individual character. Ex: if you treat the team as a single character with 4-16 active skills, then the hex grid makes sense and the linear development of individual characters becomes more acceptable. E: and another thing! I feel like this game needs an Editor’s Commentary track, where instead of dudes talking it’s comic issue footnotes for every cryptic bit of comic book fan service callback CommunityEdition fucked around with this message at 17:45 on Jul 19, 2019 |

I’m having fun with it but man, the camera is like aggressively bad. I have no idea how this made it out of play testing. It wouldn’t be as awful if it didn’t lock you out of camera control at seemingly random times, leaving you with situations where you can’t see, and also can’t loving move the camera to fix the problem.

I think it's the hero cam, i played an early boss and it kept going under the floor, so I would jump and race to beat up the mook before the camera resettled under the level. I put it on classic and it's been fine so far. Love that early hulk is a stagger beast

Kris xK posted:Did previous MUAs have more than 4 abilities per hero? I'm pretty sure we got to pick which abilities we had. Xmen Legends 2 had a lot more per character though you could only equip like, 3 + your ultimate. MUA I think was the same deal. Having only 4 for MUA3 is a step down from those but usually there were only ever like 6 or so good ones you'd use constantly anyway per character.

Threads surprisingly dead for a new Nintendo game. What a shame. Should’ve just ported MUA 1 or 2

The discord is moving and shaking though. I think a lot of us are just enjoying ourselves there. We got a lot of goons who bought it and are waiting on their copies too! Give it a few days and let’s see what happens.

I'll probably join in the goon fun starting next week. Gonna spend the weekend going through the story and figuring out who I like. I'd love to get some dedicated gimmick runs going with goons since you get so many save files.karma_coma posted:99% of the time I'm playing my switch undocked - any else?

Stagger abilities are too good. I have to run at least 1-2 heroes with a grade B, or higher, stagger ability and it is limiting team building potential because it feels just so necessary. That said, I still feel like the teams I am able to build are cool and fun. So game is still good, despite that critique.

Scarlet Witch is becoming my absolute favorite. Also I'll hop on the Discord later and see what's up! Just exploring the game for a bit. The camera isn't the best but that's just in Heroic Mode so Classic Mode is fine at least. I wish Rocket and Groot were separate, but eh, you can technically have five characters with them on a team so that's fine. Out of the Guardians though, Star Lord is fun to play. Spider-Man and the rest of the Spiders are pretty fun too.

This game is surprisingly hard, especially if you switch characters around a lot. Having synergy attacks available early on helps a lot, but once everyone is level 20 they'll each have 4 possible powers to synergize with so you'll probably be good whoever you choose. I'm rolling with the Defenders gang+Scarlet Witch right now and it works pretty well. Iron fist and Luke Cage do sooo much stagger damage. Also anyone else think Ultron's voice doesn't fit him at all? RatHat fucked around with this message at 10:20 on Jul 20, 2019 |

Am I alone in thinking that the stagger mechanic is kinda lame? Seeing Hulk smash a fool head-on and them not even reacting really, really sucks. In fact, there's no sense of force behind my attacks at all. Meanwhile even the biggest hero gets tossed like ragdolls by random mook's attacks.

MUA3 makes up for it with the Synergy attacks, though. They actually have custom animations in a lot of cases.

This game is loving awesome, a worthy successor. Played through the game to the end of Xavier School, with two buddies last night. The controls and abilities take a lot of getting used to, along with simply learning how your characters work. Once every player is savvy, the game really clicks and is extremely fun and rewarding. There are definitely some moments with the camera where you’re like... what were they thinking?! But I think a lot of it has to do with how multiplayer works- you really need to stay toward the center of the screen. The new player who can barely keep track of his character is the one getting stuck at the edge of the screen because they’re going the wrong way, or attacking a dead enemy, or whatever, and then the camera hamstrings itself trying to keep everyone in frame. I have a feeling that playing console-to-console local multiplayer will become the ideal method of MP. Although I will say, once we all kinda realized this (and got better at the game) we stopped having problems with the camera.
