The team action game Marvel Rivals continues to attract the attention of hundreds of thousands of players every day. And some of them are interested in adding role-based match search to the game, so that team compositions are pre-formed according to a certain principle. However, the developers have a different view on this situation.
The Dot Esports portal quotes Guangyong “Guangguang” Chen, creative director of Marvel Rivals, regarding the addition of this functionality:
“Right now we are not considering the possibility of queuing by role. The team’s goal is to offer more choice in team composition through team skills and proprietary designs to give people the opportunity to play as their own Marvel superheroes rather than limiting players to role selection.”
NetEase has previously said that it doesn’t see its roles as traditional compared to other hero shooters like Overwatch, as the characters in Rivals are multi-faceted and can take on different roles in matches.
“Judging by the data we receive from our background, everything is going quite well. We want people to have a Marvel experience where they can freely choose what they want. [С момента закрытого бета-тестирования] everything was rational and within expectations. We’ve seen a lot of different hero pairings pop up in our competitive play lately, and we’d like to continue to keep an eye on these fun pairings and how they impact our game.” — Guangyong “Guangguang” Chen, creative director of Marvel Rivals.
So, if you see 5 DD characters in your team, then know that everything is going according to the developers’ plan.
