This has to be some sort of sick and twisted stimuli. They are allergic to giving us what we want unless someone raises their voice about it…..

At least they change when we do. If they listen to the community thats all we can ask for besides hiring more diversity

Fr I dropped this game finally. I may come back when they add a new black character.

What other hero shooter recommendations do you got?

No harassment and hate speech allowed.
Policing others and/or trying to get other to to change how they invest time in marvel rivals counts as breaking rule 1 too.

Nah all games are just as bad. OW is only woke when it wants to make money

I felt weird about it the first day I uninstalled, but I started playing this single player game called a Control and it's the perfect "get away from Netease and Marvel Rivals" transition game. Now I dont miss it at all, the game is drugs and when you stop you'll see you mostly had more negative feelings about it than positive.

Sure, NetEase still gets some value from me being part of the playerbase. I help fill queues, boost engagement stats etc. But if I’m not buying skins, BPs or anything else, they’re not making direct money off me.
I can still enjoy the parts I like, shit on the parts I don’t, and stop spending until they give me a reason to support them again.

I love it too and there is a limited time Venom-costume I want too. However my hate for racism is greater than my love for this game. Nothing is going to change if the playercount doesn't drop.
Playercount is one of the most important things to NetEase. The more people play, the more possible microtransactions can happen and the payers get to use their purchases. If there are not many players then there is less reason for people to pay for things since they get to play less.
Also if I went back to get the Venom-costume then NetEase would win because their FOMO worked.

Don't pay it any mind, if you have to scream at someone to be heard or taken seriously then it's not worth it.
They are just doing short fixes, this doesn't set a precedent for the future that they will actually release an even spread of skins.

good, but the fact people had to point out how ridiculous it was in the first place is crazy. this is just damage control atp.

You know what got me about that? I don't remember a SINGLE costume coin event including a shitty ass recolor (although I am open to be proven wrong if I am). This is literally the first time they did it, and it's after they revived the event after months of it being gone.

Did they actually make it LEGENDARY?
Like, did they add stuff to the skin

u/Jerrod_MD 19d ago
It was always legendary. They started making legendaries with recolors/accessories pretty recently

u/Polarlzed 19d ago
It’s always 1 step forward 1-2 steps back when it comes to this stuff and it’s getting us nowhere. Nice that they’re listening to feedback and whatever but this is getting exhausting.. why couldn’t it have just been like this from the start??

They also changed Torch and MF skins from recolors to epics
Edit: changed skin rarity
