Marvel MMO - Concerns?

Greetings!

Ever since the "leak" about Daybreak making a Marvel MMO I've been following it like a hawk as I really love the Marvel universe. Which if I had to take a guess I'd say it's coming from Dimensional Ink since they are handling DCUO and it has "Unannounced Project" on it's official website. According to the EG7 release it mentioned a Marvel IP based MMO. However on the EG7 release that I just read that it doesn't even mention this at all anymore? 

Here is the link: https://www.enadglobal7.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/02/EG7-Investor-Presentation-February-2022.pdf   

Now under "New Games" all you can see is "Unannounced Projects" maybe I'm just looking into it wrong or I just have time on my hands right now to think about something else lol.  I know not much information is known about it yet but I just hope it doesn't get canned.

    The only real thing that concerns me about the Daybreak Marvel MMO is that it did take them a good while to turn DCUO around. The monetization was super heavy in that one and while the game is considerably better, there are still some sore thumbs in the game if you plan on playing for a considerably long time (talking about the game's artifact system, which supposedly can take moneys to upgrade a single one).

    The combat system and atmosphere in dcuo was great, I loved the voice acting, feel, but the game has severe content issues. Meaningless, no reward open-world combat, exploits(1 shot gun class), gear grind felt tedious etc. I hope any marvel MMOrpg would be a open-world sandbox or at least a sandpark with focus on pvp because its superhero vs superhero.

    I dont expect anything good to come from Daybreak. I am going to pretend the are not working with an IP I love and wait to say see Im right not to expect much. Or be shocked a good game come from DB and be happy I am wrong. I will not take time following them but only open that box when they have a finished game that the twitch community can judge. Thats what DB studio gets from me lol

    I'm thinking the Marvel MMO is going to be similar to how DCUO plays. Under the Senior Designer, Combat job listed it says "multiplayer RPG, action-based game combat" I hope it's open world. I wanna explore the X-Mansion.

    It's better now than it used to be. Hopefully if a Marvel game is released it will be closer to what DCUO is now rather than it the past regarding content access and monetization. I rather doubt it would be better as DCUO players would then be upset.

    If they were to bundle it with All Access that would be a remarkable deal for players fans of both settings. If they kept the games close enough there could even be the remote possibility of cross overs between the universes if everyone could get on the same page.

    It will be interesting to see how it works out.

    I heard the only way to play DCUO now is by having a membership? Granted I know it's F2P but it seems very restrictive. In terms of similarity I see it being really closed to how DCUO is. If the "unannounced project" is the Marvel MMO.. It could possibly run on UE4. Either way I'm really excited for it.

    One thing I will love to see if they make it similar to DCUO is the return of the 'support' role. Very few games have a role dedicated to controlling the flow of battle (whether it be enfeebling enemies or buffing allies) and just tend to roll that into tank/healer rolls just to add another dps space in its place.

    Membership remains better but f2p is being improved, at least based on my impressions from reading the changes. I don't have it installed to check it for myself so I don't have any direct impressions of the changes.

    I haven't downloaded it yet either to try it out but I've been itching to give it a go because I think the Green Lantern powerset looks fun.

    Green Lantern powerset?  Are you sure you aren't just hoping to hang around for Katma Tui to show up?   I'll be right beside you.

    They did add light powers. They were alright. They changed up the way combat works a while back though, and made it more traditional mmo like. I really enjoyed it the way it was at launch but now, not as much.

    Light (Green and Yellow Lanterns) was an interesting set when I played as it was one of the few where you could access powers not slotted on you bar by comboing into them.

    This may no longer be the case as the powerset may have changed greatly since I last played it several years ago.

    Daybreak being behind it concerns me.

    That DCUO mmo is so-so.....Could be better.

    And they somehow killed EQ......lol...

    The Marvel MMO has been in the spin cycle for ages....back when MS and Cryptic were making one, CO was allegedly a Marvel MMO, then DB was rumored to be working on one years back, now here we are.....

    I wish one of these superhero mmo did a crossover. Like if DCUO had a MK crossover with Sub-Zero summonable allies, and outfits for a limited time.

    Or a Marvel MMO had a Capcom crossover event with the same features.

    Severe doubts DB can deliver myself, but if they do can I play a supervillain called Mr Crypto? :)

    As opposed to Lord Crypto, Dr. Crypto, General Crypto, Major Crypto, Sergeant Crypto, Crypto the Wonderdog, Admiral Crypto, Detective Crypto, Officer Crypto, or Archduke Crypto?  Good thing I'm going to limit myself to English and not include foreign languages.

    You forgot Colonel Crypto for supers alliteration, I am thinking of him being the dictator of the Central African Republic where Bitcoin is actually legal tender.

    Central Africa?  Too bad we're discussing Marvel and not DC, or I'd have thrown Cryptorilla into the mix.  I had all of the DC gorilla covers at one point.  Then came the great comic book sell-off.  I'm still hoping for a guest appearance by Congorilla in a future season of one of the CW television series, Stargirl most likely.  I'm also hoping the good folks at Yerkes don't come looking for me... again.

    Still, since this is a Marvel thread, let's see how many variations of CryptoHulk players will come up with.

    I'm not a fan myself of action combat because all the clicking hurts my fingers after awhile so I do hope that if this Marvel MMO does have it (which is looking like it will) I'll be able to play it with a controller instead.
