I was really disappointed with this game. I thought it would be a lot more 3D in its battles.

I was imagining something like the spider man games, but with all the Marvel characters in that kind of cityscape.

A lot of characters are short range or melee.

There are a bunch of flying/gliding/wall climbing characters, but a lot of characters don’t have tools to deal with enemies who are not grounded.

The game has been fun, but I’ve given it up now mainly because of balance and match making issues. >80% of the games I play are completely one-sided. One team will never be able to touch the objective or will be completely confined to the spawn point. Even if I’m on the winning team, such one-sided steamrolling is no fun.

Ok new heroes, yeah, cool, but an option for crossplay in competitive would be even better 🙏 My competitive rank is low because I can’t party up with my friends and has absolutely nothing to do with my own skill trust

Also why is this post getting so many downvotes?

I don’t know, console users playing with PC would break the ranked system. Controllers are at a huge disadvantage and I can easily see people blaming console users on their team for losing.

Also why is this post getting so many downvotes?

Because it’s 2025 and Lemmy users still use the downvote button as a disagree button. It’s so predictable, any post I make about live service games gets instantly downvoted.

They could easily put a toggle on so people can choose to enable cross play, off by default. If console folks want to subject themselves to people using mice, that’s their own fault, and nobody who didn’t want to would need to play with them.

There might be other reasons for the delay that are more contractual in nature to get sorted out.

Very few people would turn it on though and you’d end up with very long queue times.

Sure, but for those that have to have it a long queue is better for them than no queue.

I get it, people have understandable reasons for why they personally wouldn’t want crossplay in competitive. All I’m asking for is the option to enable it. I’m on PC and almost all of my friends are on console so we always have to play casual. The wild swings in opponent skill level get really annoying sometimes. Solo queuing in this game is exceptionally awful because voice chat is disabled by default, which makes no sense for a game that requires teamwork

And yeah, the blanket live service hate gets pretty annoying. Like this is a great game with purely cosmetic microtransactions that can be easily ignored

Why start removing bots from qp and make ranked games more balanced when we can release new skins/characters?!

Check steam forums, a lot of people complain about bots and it’s annoying as fuck
