Soonmot posted:They also really need to rethink the breakable door/ control panel thing because with two Hawkeyes, it'll be possible to have a whole team of human players and no one able to break open a door. I bet Hawkeye will have a dumb bomb arrow that will work, but I agree that gating loot behind abilities is dumb. At the very least there should be a button to command AI teammates to bust open or hack doors. Or maybe have alternate opening methods. Easy way could be breaking it, or you could do one of those switch puzzles.

There's not even really a reason to gate them. I mean Widow could either have a gadget that hacks them or just some C4 or something. It's a universe where technology is basically magic.

Just beat the campaign. i was hoping for Kamala Khan’s Punch Out (Yes I played Wonderful 101, why do you ask?), but it was still a cool moment. Jack aside it was a pretty great campaign and a good jumping off point for continuous content, if they can pull it off.

I would think they'll add a paragon like system cause yeah that seems like a natural thing for this type of game and they have the comics in the game that give you little stat boosts that can stack if you get multiples, could just let you pick one of those each time you level or something.

One small but very annoying feature: it seems to be impossible to switch your hero on the Chimera. I would like to take another character into the next mission, but I would need to buy some gear for them first, and there's seemingly no way to switch characters. I found some guide that said you can go downstairs from the corridor where all the heroes' private rooms are and access a wartable-like thing where you can change all your heroes' gear and whatnot, but there sure as hell isn't a "downstairs" from there in my game.

Take the lower door from the war table and the next table should be a character switcher, however it only shows up after you've completed the campaign.

The numbers are in and the game did not sell well at all. In the UK sales on PC & Consoles sold 71% less than PS4 Spider-Man did in its launch week. https://metro.co.uk/2020/09/07/marvel-avengers-sells-less-third-ps4-spider-man-uk-chart-debut-13233119/

VanillaGorilla posted:I want to like Thor, but it feels like the designers’ intended build with him is around overcharge, which is a really dumb mechanic that requires you to never get hit, in a game where it is REALLY hard to go long stretches without getting hit. If they’d added a mastery that made it harder to get bounced out of overcharge maybe it would have worked but that’s not the world we live in. I struggled a lot with Thor until mid-game, see my series of failures a couple pages ago. But a few days ago he finally *clicked* for me. I think the key to success are charged heavy combos. They interrupt, do a lot of damage and a bit of an aoe. And once something is interrupted you can mix in the light combo plus the hammer swirls and a Godblast (I have the 3 Godblast spec, which works great as "Oh poo poo" key).

Playing the final mission which is seriously an hour plus long. Almost at the end. Game crashes, and I'm right back at the Chimera with absolutely zero progress saved whatsoever. Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!

campaign has been great so far except for the first mission they give you iron man, black widow, and thor I died so fast I assume I'm playing them totally wrong but who knows because the HARM mission to explain their intended playstyle isn't until after a 20-60 minute long mission and boss fight

didn’t enjoy the beta at all but with nothing on my radar until cyberpunk I figured it might be a good lootnshoot time killer to hold me over so I picked it up campaign is fun so far, kamala is less obnoxious than she was in the beta, honestly just having the stuff with her dad in quiet scenes helps a lot to humanize her as more than a walking yelling Marvel’s The Avengers The Game banner ad

Yeah, Kamala's the highlight of the game for me. I'm not a muslim so I don't have any personal experience of life as a muslim, but Tamoor Hussein and some other game journos who are said that the little things (like her dad calling her Beta) feel very true to life. Even to an outsider she's an awesome character, and I really liked the little details like her saying she made her first superhero costume out of a burkini her mum had bought for her. That's of course a very worn superhero trope at this point ("hero makes first costume at home"), but transported into a different culture very well. I hope we get more of her in future games. Better games.

I'm about halfway through the campaign and it's been reasonably fun. The best parts have definitely been story missions with action set pieces, where Crystal Dynamics is able to flex its Tomb Raider muscles. I can't shake the feeling that this could have been a much better game if they ditched the multiplayer/GaaS stuff entirely and just made this an "Uncharted but with superheroes" action romp. Also yeah it's nice to see Kamala being treated well in the spotlight role.

The finale of the main campaign has an amazing moment for her as well. Her growing giant, impaling the kree sentry on the golden gate bridge and just beating the absolute poo poo out of it was pretty good. I wish they'd had a little bit in between rescuing Cap and that mission to build up MODOK a little more but what's there was good. She definitely feels like the most fun character to play for me so far, having two forms of on demand emergency healing really helps and her ult feels like the most damaging one.

I prefer the comic version of that, but since she ran away from home in the game, and I am not sure her mom even has a model it was the best they could do I suppose

These subtitles are wild. Most of the time they don't even describe the sound they just say what's going on. It's like they're subtitles to be read aloud for blind people or something.

Maybe I missed the option at the war table, but I could've sworn I didn't find any option to change a hero -- short of choosing a mission and then picking a hero, which would then just revert back to my previous hero if I quit the war table.

The intent seems to be that you'd only need to switch heroes on starting a mission while progressing the campaign, which is all you'd do until you finished it and went into the free-er play mode. Like you said, it's one in a weirdly long list of conceptual issues that didn't get caught. They happen in most games and they're always baffling, stuff here like the SHIELD vendor being off in a corner with an extra long run just for no reason but this game in particular seems to have a lot of them that just didn't get sanity checked.

Campaign is great, enjoying playing some post game with Thor and will probably see it through to max level/power level and pick it back up when cool new heroes are out. Would be nice if the the open world areas were designed a little more to be lived in areas ala destiny patrol zones but ah well. Game is fun.

Gear doesn't drop higher than 130, then you can upgrade each piece +10 and get another +10 from your major artifact...but there's really no point in doing that, since there's no advantage to having a PL 150 character rather than a PL 135 one.
