Best Of

I’ve just seen it a few hours ago.

Without going into spoilers, I thought it was very well done. The performances were outstanding and I enjoyed the chemistry between the actors. Standout performances for me were Reed and Torch.

Initially I doubted Pedro but he absolutely delivered for me. He’s got Reed down pat with being a tortured soul and brilliant mind. Joseph Quinn I honestly was not sold on - even in the trailers. But my gosh I adored his take on torch. He had the perfect balance between being witty and intelligent, but also had a lot of heart to him. All the other actors did a phenomenal job.

I liked what the focus of the film was and how the plot was built around it. The CGI was well done, you begin to care about these characters you’ve never seen before.

There are minor things I didn’t like, like at times it felt quite fast-paced. This is not typically an issue for me, but I felt like being less than 2 hours, they could have given us an extra 20-30 minutes and spread it out a little, potentially give us a little more on the tail end as it wrapped up. The ending was something I actually wasn’t entirely expecting, and even though I would’ve preferred the ending to be different, I still thought it was well done. And if they HAD to go that route, it’s pretty much exactly how I’d want it to play out.

Overall very enjoyable. Personally I’m giving it an 8.5/10. Similar to thunderbolts, it felt pretty fresh, not just as we are introduced to a new group, but mainly because it feels like it has a vision, and the film is constructed around a central idea/theme that is carried throughout the movie.

I have to disagree somewhat about the CGI. I thought the CGI on the baby was pretty bad. I didn’t understand why they couldn’t use a real baby for most of the scenes. Aside from that, the movie was really good.

Thankful for something free, but honestly I’m a bit puzzled. Not sure why anyone can be gifted something that can’t even be utilized once they get it. 🤷🏼‍♂️

My grandma uaed to give me stuff I can't or won't use every xmas...

How so? A gift is a gift. We're not owed it.

It's not a gift if it's basically a psychologically manipulative advertisement embedded into your stash to remind you everyday that you'll never be able to use those "free" shards unless you pay for the remaining necessary shards.
Each possible item in this gift should've been something theoretically usable without having to pay money.
If you can't see how that's a dirty tactic then you're either a bad faith troll or a good faith moron.

You’re not going to be seeing those shards every day dude. Heck I don’t even know where they go. If this is supposed to be some manipulative advertisement, it isn’t any different from the usual strategies they use like throwing out a million bad deals on the daily.

Not saying that it’s cool to have useless shards, but it’s just whatever. I don’t see what the ruckus is about. Were we even expecting this event? Because it certainly surprised me

They could have given you nothing for free.

They did..

So its basically envy then? You are mad other people got lucky and you didn't?

And it’s not envy for me. It’s a frustration that the game developers made the box with useless rewards apart from spending.

The last 2 boxes had a guaranteed 7 star champ. Even if I didn’t get a 7 star I wanted, I still got a 7 star. Not a 1/3 of a 7 star only in unique shards that hold zero value if I can’t complete to 15000.

I think you’re putting too much faith in the concept of boxes. The last boxes were good because they were made to be good for a special event. It doesn’t mean that every box will be good henceforth. They’re just a tool to deliver certain rewards, like crystals are.

Not exactly the definition of arcade.

Go undust the the old Atari system to play a game of Pong. Pong is more exciting than this mode. Maybe bring out the Nintendo handheld Donkey Kong game.

The game mode didn't come with a manual.

3 entries per 24 hours? Is it really stuck at 3,000 health?

Overall it was boring, it was not part of MCOC. There was no interaction in the game. It was more like it launched its own browser and a separate game with just F4 characters. Given existing MCOC has bugs, Kabam did this to as a means to avoid breaking the game further?

The announcement was a little hype. Why call it Doom Cycle? I was expecting Doc Doom on motorcycle arcade style game based on the title.

More than often I kept hitting the X which exits the mode. Kabam needs to take a class on user interface and navigation. When configuring mastery, I was expecting a Save button. Instead, clicked on the X which exits the mode; lost count how many times I did that.

I don’t get it at all.

I used a token, beat a level, and spent 10 points ranking up masteries. When I exited the masteries page I ended up back on the main game screen. I entered again, and I have to restart? Progress doesn’t save? I used a token to do nothing except waste my time?

The in-game “tutorial” was useless. The info immediately disappeared. I had zero idea about what was happening. Am I watching a passive turn-based scroller? The way I “play” is to watch the waves and then pick power-ups just to watch the next set of waves?

I want to be as diplomatic and positive as I can while providing constructive criticism, so here goes…this “game” is a dumpster fire, and so far I’d rather walk blindfolded and barefoot across a room with Lego strewn across the floor than ever consider putting any resources into this new mode.
