As hero shooters go, Marvel Rivals is definitely one of the fashionable within the gaming neighborhood proper now, however one primary grievance has been on gamers’ minds since its beta interval.
With totally different Marvel heroes and villains taking on separate roles like Vanguard (tank), Duelist (harm), and Strategist (assist/healer), many gamers are questioning when position queue might be added to the sport to assist gamers queue up for the position they want to play. But additionally to stop crew compositions from getting too unbalanced or bizarre.
Anyone who’s performed Competitive in Marvel Rivals can have undoubtedly run right into a crew that solely needs to play Duelist, thus leaving the crew in a compromised scenario. Role queue would repair this and another points, however in keeping with a NetEase Games developer, these hoping for its addition shouldn’t maintain their breath.
“Right now, we’re not contemplating a job queue,” Guangyun “Guangguang” Chen, Marvel Rivals artistic director, informed Dot Esports. “The crew’s objective is to supply a greater diversity of crew composition by team-up expertise and their very own designs, to let folks play their Marvel superheroes reasonably than limiting gamers to selecting a job.”
NetEase has stated previously that it doesn’t see its roles as conventional, in comparison with different hero shooters like Overwatch, as characters in Rivals can do a number of issues properly. This newest information simply reiterates that feeling.
“From the info we’re seeing in our again finish, issues are going fairly strong,” Chen stated. “We need folks to have a Marvel expertise the place they’re free to pick what they need. [Since the closed beta test] issues have been rational and inside expectations. In our Competitive play not too long ago, there’s lots of totally different compositions rising from gamers and we’d wish to proceed to observe these enjoyable compositions and the way they influence our recreation.”
While this doesn’t spell the top of position queue probably coming to the sport ultimately, it seems the sport will proceed on its present path within the foreseeable future. Good luck getting that zero-kill Star-Lord to modify off in your ranked video games, I suppose.
