Games Marvel Rivals

General Gaming Discussion
Looks like she will take a bit to learn but potentially a great deal of fun and very unique.

Finally a Vanguard main I will have. Gambits been much fun as a Strat, hopefully Rogue will be just as good.
Agreed.

I have tried with Erik, but struggle a little. Emma I play sometimes. But Rogue I'll definitely try to main as a Vanguard.

Sidenote: I've been enjoying the gender balance with all characters they have added. If S01 wasn’t specifically for FF, I believe it would probably be 50/50 as well.

Hopefully this sets up a good example for other Marvel Games.

Yeah its not a class I have played much or do particularly well with but thats more because I just prefer the other characters in the other classes. I had some decent games as Venom, Cap and Emma but playing Strat and hanging back healing is easier to do anyway and DPS can vary but is relatively straight forward just trying to do as much damage as possible.

Vanguard seems the "hardest" to play, usually because you tend to draw the most enemy fire but as its Rogue I will persevere longer with her to try and get some good results.

Yeah its not been male dominated although that is possible because they tend to lean into the female form a bit OTT sometimes, a lot of swimsuit skins seem to help as well but at least they are true to the comics you could say. I have seen a lot of female streamers playing this though as well so it seems the fanbase is not so male dominated as some games perhaps.
 
Nice to get him officially confirmed and really nice video reveal cartoon/manga. Going to be popular no doubt and big start for the new year for Rivals the hype he will generate:

Yeah its odd that he is on the hero screen as coming soon already. Cant remember another time they have done that. I guess they are just keen to market him now though and get as much attention from it as possible as he is probably the biggest name they have left from a commercial point of view and draw in more players.
 
When you look at Rogue and Gambit's kit, Jean's look even more disappointing. There was so much they could've done to her.

I just play with her because I like her.

People are saying this looks suspicious, and maybe the devs are joking because they know how the fans feel about including more dueslists.

As much as I know this game needs more Vanguards and Strategists, Deadpool totally fits a Duelist, and I'm totally fine with it.

Yeah it seems its taken them a while to get to grips with making new characters interesting and unique all of them since Daredevil have been excellent and varied, the ones before not so much. Jean seems very meh kit wise, just a long range shooter which is nothing like what her character really is in comics and other media. Invisible woman is so much more fun to play as than her for example.

Rogue seems like fun and a proper brawler like you would expect, I love she has her MvC dive kick, but she's going to take a while to learn, more complex than Gambit was, no wonder she is 5 star rating.

Yeah with Deadpool you cant take anything seriously, he is that joker character, they can use for meme's and playing with the fanbase. Him being a more straightforward shooter, duelist, would make total sense for his character and going by that video it looks like he will be using his twin guns and swords mainly like you would expect but I'm not assuming anything yet, especially as he has turned up randomly early, unlike any other character.

We will no doubt get plenty more Vanguards/Strategists anyway, it doesnt have to be a complete even split, there's so many to choose from in the end just playing the same character or class seems boring to me anyway, I like to jump around and see what other characters I like.

Cant wait to see what we get with Cyclops, I can see him being a strategist potentially, him being a leader would make sense. I hope we get Cable too.

Yes, I'm hoping Scott is strategist as well and as fun as Gambit/Rogue.

Some characters I can see as strategists:
Cyclops
Green Goblin
Black Cat
Forge
Beast
Xavier
Dani Moonstar
Mysterio
Lizard
Sinister
Carol

As Vanguard:
Iceman
Xavier too
Cable
Carol too
Doc Ock
Kraven
Lizard too
Sabretooth
Apocalypse
Juggernault
Colossus
Sunspot
 
I hope they make Nightcrawler a strategist. It would be cool to BAMF whenever you're cornered.

I'm not sure what's a better fit for Bishop, vanguard or strategist.

Yeah, there is still a lot they could add. Colossus, Cable, Shang-Chi, Wenwu, X-23 are just some of the others I wouldnt mind seeing but Deadpool is going to be the biggy. As long as the kits are interesting it doesnt matter who they add as long as they continue to be interesting and fun to play.

Oh yeah Surfer or Shalla-Bal would be another interesting one and fave.

Looking forward to getting Cyclops and Beast so we can get a full/proper X-Men team together.
 
I heard some of Rogue's dialogue.

"Knull, I got over that goth phase A LONG time ago, sugah!"

That made me laugh.
Yeah they really made use of Lenor Zann, she seems to talk more than other characters and has some of the best lines. Even more incentive to play as her.
 
Deadpool is now shown as a tank. They're trolling us.

I wonder if he will be able to switch roles.

Maybe he'll be able to soak up damage because of his healing factor.

I would complain but we do need more tanks.

I love how he is already trolling the player base before he even arrives.

I can see them doing all sorts with him to really wind people up, I am all here for it.

Also this new thing they are doing for the Xmas theme holiday in the Times Square lobby is clearly a test for Ant-Man.

I'm obsessed with Sue and Reed.

I haven’t checked it yet. I also love that, with the exception of Angela, they 've been adding only popular characters.

Yeah the Fantastic 4 were a really great start to this games life, lots of variety and powers well adapted.

Yeah I guess they want to add most of the main players first so everyone has their faves. Cyclops, Ghost Rider, Deadpool etc and the other main names you see get requested a lot and will of course be added but I like they also add others to keep things interesting, Elsa Bloodstone will be interesting to see what they do with her while everyones still hyped about Deadpool and his antics he will no doubt bring to the game.

I also hope we get a period of Villains at some point, Doom is obviously coming at some point but Apocalypse, Omega Red, Mr Sinister, Kingping and Sinister Six would be a really fun time as well.

Yeah. They have enough characters for 40 years of support.

I wish they'd release 3 characters per season: 2 big names and 1 not so much. It would be a good balance.

By the way I wonder if 2026 will 12 or 10 characters, because S01 had the entire FF.

Yeah its not like they will ever run out, lol.

Yeah it would also help like with FF two get released at a time so the mad scramble for picking the new guy isnt so bad. Deadpools going to be crazy to get hold of first couple of weeks.

As long as they stick to their plan its currently one a month so will be 12 starting with DP 19/1 then Elsa mid Feb and onwards like that. They might surprise us with more but I would assume that for now.

I've seen it now. Ant man and wasp should be fun.

Also, I hope eventually for a special event where we have to face a giant sentinel.
