I got the beta with solely the intent of getting the Fortnite rewards, but the gameplay grew on me, and it became a lot of fun, and I decided to preorder the game as my birthday present to myself (the three days early option immediately follows my birthday)

I’m SUPER disappointed in the cosmetic aspect of this game. You can only change your appearance via skins from the microtransaction store? Boooooo.... What’s the point of a Destiny-like loot loadout if my new legendary bracers don’t change the appearance of the one on my character?

I only played for a couple of minutes, but damn it was fun to play as Thor.

The Beta has been fun for me, looks like I'll get a bit more time to play it today as I'm sick.

I'm glad I had a chance to play the beta this weekend. I went from not caring about this game to probably gonna pre-order the deluxe edition
my main will be Thor, and while my time with him was brief.... holy shit was it fun. once I got his rockets powered up, Iron Man was pretty awesome too

It’s too bad the Beta only lets you be Thor for the prologue mission, because he’s fun to use. Likely mains will be Thor, Black Widow, and Spider-Man (when he’s out).

Despite my complaint about cosmetics... it’s really fun. It’s cool to meet these characters as well. I’m not into the Marvelverse at all, so everyone and everything is new to me. Kamala is great.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the expanded skill trees. I'm also very hyped to play Captain America more, he was a lot of fun for the 45 seconds or so I got to play him.

I think you're confusing cosmetics for gear, cosmetics is the skins that are in the in game store, there will be vendors selling them, you get patterns for skins, and there's skins unlocked in the battle pass type thing. the gear is what's not changing

Well, the trailers for the game spoil some (I'm assuming) major plot elements, so I'd avoid them for the next couple weeks before the game launches if you want to find out for yourself.

Then again, Cap having a bigger role than initially hinted is probably already spoiled by how he’s got a bunch of costumes and move/skill trees, along with literally being the guy front and centre on the box art.

It's a fun game at heart, but man is it going to be wrapped in so much Triple A video game bullshit.

Kinda looks like "Micro-transactions the Game" with an Avengers Skin.

Like Diablo or Destiny, finding cool new loot that makes your character look awesome is one of my favorite things to do. It’s disappointing it’s all just skins, and the legendary bracer I just found doesn’t have a special look to it.

It’s too bad the Beta only lets you be Thor for the prologue mission, because he’s fun to use. Likely mains will be Thor, Black Widow, and Spider-Man (when he’s out). I'm confused. When I played yesterday for the Prologue mission, every single Avenger had a brief moment of gameplay. Sure you started with Thor, but you quickly cycled through Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America, and Black Widow before the main part of the story went through. Didn't get a chance to finish the mission due to S-E's servers crapping out on me during gameplay (got disconnected three times during the Taskmaster fight before I gave up), but of what I did play I enjoyed immensely (fingers crossed the servers aren't nearly as bad as they were for me since I did start relatively late in the evening Sunday so they could've been shutting things down). I'm a sucker for the Marvel property games, and this one happens to have really enjoyable combat on top of recognizable characters to make it that much more fun. I played on PC with an XBox controller, and felt the most comfortable with Captain America (loved how his moves chained together with his shield), though I'm fairly sure a skillshot character like Iron Man would be more enjoyable with Keyboard/Mouse. There are a few leaked DLC characters that I will likely take up as a main ahead of the current cast, but of the ones I've played so far I could definitely see Cap being my primary. Nice thing about all of this is I'm getting a new Note20 Ultra 5G reimbursed from work, I should be able to play this game via the GeForce Now founders membership I've got (been playing Witcher 3 through it perfectly fine on my current phone with an XBox Controller, no lag at all). Would be nice to grind out a few Drop Zones for gear during lunch breaks!

I get what your saying, and also hope the full release has those different looks to hear to make each hero look unique online
