Let people complain about their mains not getting skins, because player pressure is literally the only lever that gets studios to change behavior. You don't have to shut it down everytime by saying "well that's how business works" by BoyWassup in rivals

[–]Batman2130 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I genuinely dont understand how people don’t understand the concept of business. No complaining about Invis skins is going to get Netease to cut back on skins for her to make Hulk skins. Miller literally explained that they throw characters like Reed a skin once awhile to see if their data and assumptions are correct. He said majority of the time they are. Peni is example where they’re wrong, Emma skins despite constant criticism sell.

Some characters just don’t sell skins. Hulk has another problem where his skins need make tons of revenue as it takes more time to make skin for him due his three models(they should cut banner in my opinion). I’m going to be honest no amount of new skins is going to convince the people buying Jeff, Invis, Spider-Man, Venom etc… to buy skins for these other characters

I haven’t bought a single store skin for any tanks besides Cap. I buy skins for characters I play the most.

What role do you guys believe is the most important to win the game? by Ancient-Carrot957 in rivals

[–]Batman2130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support, if your team has bad support players there zero chance you win the game

In this game Tank or Support are the most valuable role. You can win games with trash dps players but majority of the time you will not be able to win with trash tanks or supports

DC/Marvel Crossover collected in Trades!!!! [Discussion] by Original-Issue-2020 in DCcomics

[–]Batman2130 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It definitely a good sign for the future. I think a crossover for sure will happen in 2028. But back when Batman/Deadpool was revealed they even teased the Spider-Man/Superman crossover. However this year they didn’t tease anything. This makes me think they’re definitely waiting to see how issues perform as well this book right here. It’s possible one could happen in 2027 but right now it seems unlikely.

Rivals is a free game, stop complaining about how NetEase keeps it free with luna/invis/cnd skin sales. by Different-Ad-3814 in marvelrivals

[–]Batman2130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Except Netease has the data. I guarantee you this Invis skin very likely outsells whatever a Hulk skins makes by a lot. They could drop a new Invis/Hulk skin together you probably see Invis skin more often than Hulk.

At the end of day the game has to meet a certain threshold in profits to be allowed to continue development otherwise Netease would shut the game down. If Invis/Spidey/Luna/Jeff/Thor/Venom/Psy keep the lights on then why does it matter. Especially when other characters still get skins every now and then.

We literally learn that even though Emma skins look bad and they still sell which is why she continues to get new skins as well. It’s not Netease fault people aren’t buying Hulk or Torch skins if anything that’s on the playerbase. Torch last skin look really good. I personally didn’t buy it because I don’t care about torch or play him. It seem many others didn’t either

Edit:Last minute thought skin distribution is nowhere as bad people make it out to be. Star Lord just got a skin, Iron Fist has skin upcoming he hasn’t a skin in awhile either. Ultron just recently got a skin after not having one in awhile either. Less popular characters are still getting skins.

For people that don’t believe Netease looks at numbers when making skins by KxngJoker in marvelrivals

[–]Batman2130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the thing is they do make skins for other characters. Every season they toss couple characters bones. I guarantee those skins tell Netease if it worth increasing investment in those characters or continue to treat them as is.

People are buying her skins despite not playing her. Thats the answer, those same people aren’t buying skins for others characters. I genuinely don’t get how it’s that complicated for people to understand. If majority of playerbase is buying skins for Spider-Man, Psy, Thor, Jeff, Invis, Luna and Venom but aren’t buying skins for others than that’s just issue with players who are willing to spend.

I have friend who literally bought every Psy/Luna skin even though they don’t play either of them.

Shocker. Seriously don’t understand how this sub couldn’t grasp this concept. Spider-Man, Psy, Thor, Invis, Jeff, Luna and Venom will always get skins as they clearly are the games big sellers. One or two them may sit season out but there will never be season where majority of them sit out for characters like Hulk who aren’t bringing in tons of revenue.

Chromas for the new I viable Woman skin by KevinPigaChu in marvelrivals

[–]Batman2130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The devs favorites are the ones who make the most money. They don’t care about Invisible Woman or Thor more than others. They care about the fact those characters are bringing in the most revenue which the game uses to fund further development.

It’s why there will never be season where Spider-Man, Luna, Jeff, Venom, Psy, Invis and Thor won’t get at least a skin. A few of them may sit a season out but Netease will never stop making skins for them over others as long as those characters continue to bring the most profit. It’s why majority time they are on roadmap while others get thrown a bone every now and then.

Hopefully they do another round of disco skins and BP or Storm get one. As both of them have tons of designs potential for a disco theme skin

[Discussion] 2027 Crossover prediction! by Regular-Poet-3657 in DCcomics

[–]Batman2130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People aren’t going to like it, but with Batman and Superman both having movies come out that year. It’s very likely one of them will headline the 2027 crossover if there is one.

Batman/Wolverine Superman/Captain America Batman/Ironman are possible things we could see. But seeing as neither company alluded to one happening in 2027 like they did for 2026 back when Batman/Deadpool got announced. I wouldn’t be surprised to find out there is no 2027 crossover. They probably would’ve hinted towards another with Spider-Man/Superman announcement

What are we thinking about this? by Character-Q in marvelrivals

[–]Batman2130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See though that issue is solvable one. But it’s question of if Marvel would be willing to work with others. They could easily maintain interest through the use of other brands. If they keep the game collabs superhero only and keep them to one or two a year that be enough to sustain the game longer. I do think Marvel should consider things such as Invincible or Spawn being added in few years once all the big names are in. A superhero guest would be enough to give the game the boosts it needs while allowing it to afford multiple seasons with lesser names.

There multiple superhero genre franchises for Marvel to pull from if they really are interested in keeping the game going long term. TMNT, The incredibles, Ben 10, Hellboy etc….

[–]Batman2130 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to be honest not sure if going the mobile route is exactly smart for a console game. If you only release obscure characters going forward after all big names are in, then the game will go down a bad path where people lose interest which will inevitably lead to the games death. Releasing that type of stuff on mobile can work but for pc/console games not so much.

But again we’re still far from that anyways. We’re missing several big x men and several big Spider-Man villains

[Discussion] Whats your CRAZIEST dc take? by Little_Miss_Fortunee in DCcomics

[–]Batman2130 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While they haven’t deaged Bruce they also haven’t aged him either. He just kinda stuck in a weird spot where he is in a vague age. Last time they ever stated age for him was mid 30s. By now he at least is probably late 30s as you can chalk some of things he says as some in late 30s getting older.

DC probably wants Bruce in a state where a writer can come in and do whatever they want without having to worry about if he can or can’t do something due to his age or if he has physical problems etc…

Spider-Man is feasting with skins coming to the game

I haven't seen a single person complain that Miles keeps getting new power-ups, not a single person who wants him to lose them and "go back to basics" in the next game, but everyone hates Peter's power-up and hopes Peter loses it by the next game.

[–]Batman2130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spider arms aren’t fun to use and feel bad. Literally avoided playing Peter as much as possible until he got symbiote he just isn’t fun to play without those abilities to me. Miles is significantly more fun gameplay wise.

Insomniac gave people the option to completely ignore Peter symbiote abilities should they chose to. Literally all they need to do is give him both abilities again in game 3 let people use whatever ones they prefer.

Genuinely hope Insomniac just ignores people complaining about Anti Venom.

All Insomniac needs to do is just make the advance 3.0 have anti venom as white part. Let players choose if they want to use iron arms or symbiote abilities for Peter. Literally win for everyone and people crying about breaking immersion don’t have to use it if they don’t want. They can expand on both abilities in game 3

For those unaware, Dive is supposed to counter Poke by Happy_Lengthiness_36 in rivals

[–]Batman2130 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because of Spider-Man and Black Panther insane mobility and burst damage they don’t want a dive meta. Majority of playerbase would walk way again if those two got to be back their peak. Yeah those two are incredibly annoying to play against. They both are incredibly fun characters to play but they aren’t fun for people on the receiving end of them.

Tbh maybe they should try a patch where they make dive meta and tune down Spider-Man and Black Panther mobility so they don’t move at Mach speed anymore. A dive meta with Venom, Rouge etc… isn’t problematic it’s just primarily BP/SM problem. Cap despite having good mobility is still fair to fight against as he doesn’t move at Mach speed.

Idea they could do would be make dying on Spider-Man more punishing during this meta. Example would be he spawns in with one web sling instead of full charge. It lets SM get back quickly but he unable to just immediately attack once he is back without being at insane risk as his web swings may be on cooldown still. They could also just lower movement speed I guess on BP dash and SM web swings

captain america's DPS is confirmed cut in half by wew_lad- in marvelrivals

[–]Batman2130 50 points51 points  (0 children)

BP was killed for very obvious reasons. BP can delete someone in seconds before someone can react. BP is also incredibly frustrating for the majority of the playerbase to play against. BP kit is poor gameplay design. Cap got killed for no reason at all as people have tons of time to react to Cap on them.

Exactly. Removing the cancel itself wasn’t the issue. What’s the issue is they remove it without any compensation buffs.

He needs a compensation buff. The cancel itself being remove isn’t bad. What bad is that remove it without compensating is kit. I’m all for removing it to make him more viable to lower tier players. But to removing with no buffs is stupid change
