No Role Queue For Marvel Rivals, Says Game’s Director

Guangyun “Guangguang” Chen, creative director behind marvel rivalstated that while many players have requested a character queue system, a matchmaking option to help create balanced teams, there are currently no plans to implement such a system in the free-to-play character shooter.

The free-to-play third-person hero shooter launched earlier this month and has already made a splash as it quickly became one of the hottest games of the year Over 20 million players. Some of these players are tired of being thrown into matches where their entire team is duelist, forcing them to play healers or tanks to help balance the lineup.

One solution to this problem is role queues. Found in similar games Battlefield Special Attack 2role queue allows players to select a role, such as a tank, and then find matches that require that specific role. exist Battlefield Special Attack 2In this case, that means one tank, two attackers, and two healers per game. This should result in a more balanced team, but the developers behind opponent There seems to be no interest in adding this system to shooters.

talking Click eSports, Chen said the studio is currently “not considering character queues.”

“The team’s goal is to provide a wider range of team compositions through team skills and its own design, allowing people to play as their Marvel Super Heroes, rather than limiting players’ choice of characters.”

Chen further explained that competition data showed that opponent There is currently no need for a character queue system.

“We want people to be able to freely choose the content they want and get the Marvel experience. [Since the beta test earlier this year]things are already reasonable and expected. Players have seen a lot of different compositions in our recent competitive play, and we want to continue to monitor these interesting compositions and how they impact our game.

While some may be upset that Chen and developer NetEase aren’t rushing to balance the game or add a character queue system, I’m glad to see the online multiplayer studio taking a step back and letting things get messy and confusing before they Jump down.

One of the reasons I like opponent This is because everyone feels powerful and matches rarely play out the same way, as nearly every character seems viable with the right combination or strategy. While character queues might be nice in ranked mode, I hope if it’s added it’s not meant to balance out all the fun Marvel rivals.
