  • Unique Features: The 4v4 tag team fighting system and the comic-book style "Episode Mode" have been well-received, with users appreciating the depth and creativity in character interactions.
  • Character Roster: The initial roster is considered diverse and interesting, with characters feeling distinct and well-integrated into the gameplay.

The main cons of the game

  • Performance Issues: A significant number of users report severe performance issues, including low frame rates, micro-stutters, and inconsistent online play, even on high-end PCs. Many players experience rollback frames and desyncs during matches.
  • Mandatory PSN Account: The requirement to link a PlayStation Network account to play online is widely criticized as unnecessary and frustrating, especially since it blocks access for players in over 100 countries.
  • Incompatibility with Linux: The game does not support Linux or Steam Deck users, which is a significant drawback for many players who prefer these platforms.

The features or elements that are missing from the game according to users

  • Optimization and Benchmarking: Users express a strong desire for better optimization and a benchmarking system to ensure that players can only engage in online play if their systems meet certain performance criteria.
  • Modding Support: The presence of aggressive anti-cheat measures and DRM is seen as a barrier to modding, which many players feel is essential for enhancing gameplay and community engagement.
  • Better Matchmaking and Queue Times: Players call for improvements in matchmaking systems to reduce long wait times and ensure more stable online connections.

Summary

  • Overall, while the game is recognized for its fun and engaging gameplay, the technical issues and decisions made by Sony regarding the PC port have led to significant dissatisfaction among users. Many recommend waiting for further optimizations and fixes before purchasing.
