CORRECTION: The amount of BP content will remain the same, the characters and maps are double. 😅

With the content, they meant for playable content. The amount of cosmetics will be the same. It's just the playable stuff. Basically, they meant that about maps and heroes. Regular seasons will have a map and 2 heroes, same cosmetics. The 3 maps and 4 heroes was more or less what they mean will be cut in half.

Sty what is this video? you are missing a heap of important distinctions between the two.

The battle passes do not expire, you can complete them whenever you want.

I can use my units to buy any new skin in the store instead of being forced to use paid currency like in OW.

Achievements also give you units for reaching different tiers, i think it's 1900 total atm.
Events also give you the units for completion as well.

With the content they referred to was the heroes and maps not the battle pass being half.
I have no idea where you got the idea of the battle pass being half of this seasons size at all.

anybuddy else getting the feeling overwatch quickplay got significantly more sweaty after majority of casual gamers fled to rivals

[hahahayess]

Stylosa should be hired for Blizzard's PR Team because this is a lot of Damage Control.

It's not bait, it's real. OW battlepass is shit compared to s1 rivals.

[TheProfettier]

When they said it was a big season, they meant in terms of the amount of content released ie heroes and maps, not the battlepass

[torokil]

Overwatch’s saving grace the past few years was that suits wanted nothing to do with hero shooters and instead chased BRs and extraction shooters. Its no surprise that once a 1 to 1 competitor came out it fell like a house of cards.

[sonicguy]

So thats absolutely untrue. The "double content" is aimed towards the 4 characters and 3 maps. THATS what we'll get half of starting next season. The battle pass as it is now is what we will have going forward for each season. (10 skins + emotes + MVP screens + 1200 currency etc). The free BP also gives us 2 skins, 1 recolor and 1 new design, and a total of 600 free currency. (200 gold/400 Latice). Currency while split can be combined to complete any purchase in the shop, so you basically get $6 for free by just playing the game. Thats not even counting events which also give free Latice.

I've spend $5 last season on the BP and have enough currency through simply playing the game, doing the events, and BP to buy myself a $15/$20 skin, a premium shop skin, that INCLUDES the recently released ones like Malice and The Maker. I dare anyone to try and compare this to OW.

i feel like saying "people just cherry picking at stuff" is a little unfair considering all overwatch has done for the last five years is fuck around with their players. people arnt "cherry picking" theyre tired of blizzards bullshit, and marvel has more to offer in terms of experience and luxuries. not to mention marvel rivals released more content in the span of four weeks than overwatch did in years at one point. All within a month of its launch

[Vixorous]

I do want to flaunt all the ways Rivals absolutely dunks on Overwatch, but if we're gonna compare them, we need to be fair about it.

[ewaldus]

People are rubbing it into OW's face cause they got so burned by the devs.. Deleting OW, lying after launch of OW2 about PvE and all of a sudden the skins start pouring in.. Now you cant earn em by playing. OW made its bed.

[patrickmclaughlin]

Wait am i losing my mind? OW gets slammed by Rivals battlepass, literally get 10 skins in it compared to what, like 5 from OW???

[eraticfx]

You also get 600 BLUE units buying the battlepass. These 600 units can be used to buy the expensive skins. Thats like $6 after paying for $9.90 for the battlepass with the skins. I paid $5 for the previous BP and got 1360 units already (also from other stuff not paid for). Thats $13.60 from the $5. Dude I can either get a discount on the bundles they sell or earn them with the BP. SO WORTH IT. Played OW for years and never got the chance to buy those really cool colabs because I don't think $20 skins are worth it... BUT MARVEL RIVAL IS GENIUS. Now I have reason to buy the higher tier LATICE (and get extra LATICE) because I can use those to buy BP and future BP and earn the blue units to buy the overpriced skins... DUDE MARVEL RIVAL IS KILLING IT!

[alexislarkins]

Gave ow2 about 200 dollars thinking it was going to campaign and I was lied to for 3 years and it never released. I'm NEVER going back to ow.

[JT-xhev]

The current rivals battle pass is the normal battle pass size not a big one. They were referring to new maps and hero’s when they said this season has double the content.

[mward]

One of my most favorite things about Rivals over OW is that I can see my skin that I purchased during the game. I love the 3rd pov verses 1st pov. That adds more value to the skin and makes it more worth it to buy the skins. I love seeing my cool skin during the match!

Marvel Rivals: "I'm better!"
Overwatch: "No, I'm better!"
TF2: "*Will the two of you stop arguing!*"
Bottom line: Just play what you like.

[JamboNessy]

Now compare the visual clarity, the game performance and optimisations (fps), the netcode and lag, the rank system.

[KnightsTempura]

Doesnt matter, cosmetics/skins is optional. Character design, TPP, and overall gameplay is why people are playing Rivals.
