Here's the link for the tierlist so you can make your own rating of the different suits: tiermaker.com/...

Comment below which character you'd like me to look at next!
Hulk
Spider-Man
Thor
Black panther has the best imo so I want him.
Spider-man but it would be cool if you compared some of his suits to the Insomniac games. See possibly what each side did right and wrong etc
the main suit (not the suit you start with) in batman Arkham knight is a good example of how to make a suit look armoured without it looking to bulky. You can tell from looking at the suit that it's supposed to be an armour and at the same time it doesn't look like batman had McDonalds last night
That's why I love that suit so much. It makes Batman look big and scary but not like he put fucking pillows inside his armour
Even the MCU Cap suit is actually a good example of how to make an armored suit that doesn’t look too bulky.
Even the origins suit as bulky as it is, still doesn’t make him look fat lmao
You can have beefy and bulky and still make it look reasonable
To me, the v8.03 Batsuit is perhaps the best street level Batsuit ever created, in my opinion. 🤤
@@feedthemeat543f I love the origins suit the gauntlets are just too big and bland in my opinion
4:53 At least with the CW, it’s understandable because they ARE cheap. It’s a relatively low budget network.
But with the Avengers game, they could have modeled the suit in any way they wanted.
And they did model it anyway they want. They were on a tight budget too, you know
@@Mr.Drew70 I’m pretty sure that modeling a flat surface is easier than modeling a zipper.
@@thatcarnivoreteacher5840
And I’m pretty sure the avengers suits are better than the insomniac suits
@@Mr.Drew70 sure buddy, now take some meds
@@ArcTrooperRod-269
Hey don’t hate me because I speak the truth
they really seem to fail to understand that he isnt just a muscular guy, hes literally meant to be peak human performance. he is as good as you can get without being superhuman.
He is superhuman tho like Batman is more of a peak human then CA because CA took drugs to get the way he is so he’s not technically full human at that point
Yeah he is superhuman took drugs for it. He can lift, run, and think faster than about every human alive even taking into account genetics, experience, and non super hero making drugs (PEDs).
@@gagedawson9352 KingPing is a peak human (talking about strength)
@@emmnu262 depends in some cases he is portrayed as STRONGER than Spider-Man which in general spider man is equal or stronger than cap he lifts cars and stuff with as much effort as lifting overstuffed grocery bags(I’m referring to spider man) so I would believe that king pin either does a LOT of drugs or the human bodie can go further in the marvel multiverse
@@fernadogonzalez2940 Idk about that. Back in black is the definitive proof that Spidey is leagues stronger than kingpin. Even then, what is shown is actually him STILL holding back
The problem with the costumes in this game in my opinion is that
They tried way too hard to belike Insomniac's Spider-Man universe with the hyper realistic suits but they went *OVER 9,000* with it like Insomniac atleast knew to keep the suits looking more muscular and heroic looking with very vibrant comic book colors to contrast with the realism and keep it perfectly balanced like Yin and Yang where as The Avengers suits have nothing to contrast the hyper realism of the suits and it just looks like a guy who works a 9-5 threw on a cheap cosplay online and said "This will be okay for a comic con"
The Iron Man Suits in IRON MAN VR look like superhero costumes, The Iron man suits on MARVEL'S AVENGERS look like a Villain's background random Foot Soldiers
The Designers missed the mark by not repainting the minimalist suit into classic cap colors and giving him a helmet. That probably would be one of the best looking original costumes of the game.
If anyone wants to see Marvel superheroes in a "realistic" art style, look at Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2. Those games nailed the perfect balance between realism and stylization.
Na most of those were ugly, and what made it worse is all the characters only had 2 costumes but in the original UA they had 4 each.
Those game were ugly asf anyone who play it can tell you the best thing about those games was the gameplay not the graphics
MUA2 cap is ugly. MUA3 has a better looking suit
@@B-MagMUA3 is dogshit compared to MUA1
Exactly. They look so good
You can tell when they used the “heroic proportions” model because his right deltoid overshadows his bicep and is in line with the forearm musculature. You can see they used that model for the infinity war suit.
The skin are something I've always loved about super hero games. I still remember finding orange and brown in wolverines revenge behind the truck
Same.
I don't get why they didn't recolor the Stark Tech suit and say that was the Secret Empire suit, it was way easier
It's not based on the armoured suit, it's suppose to be his regular suit with a hydra logo where the star was.
But since this game has an armoured suit, you're right in that they should've just recoloured that instead.
Also to take note: a lot of people are use to skins being always worth something, but they make the default a boring design because they don’t want you to like the default skin. They want you to invest in the prettier looking skins
His iconic suit looks like an alternate Solider Boy costume from the Boys tbh
“The Avengers 1 suit has nothing on the back”
Well….. I wouldn’t say that…..
That really is America’s a$$
Lolololol
Space punisher had a four armed hulk WHO WAS NAKED 😂
It's a shame the original costumes came out like this in the final game. In the official art book of the game, you can see the concept designs of them and they look 🔥
The mcu suits are always the light at the end of the tunnel in these videos
Yes, I was very disappointed that they did not include the Age of Ultron Cap suit. Probably my favorite from the movies.
💯💯💯💯
Please make more videos like these, I love listening about game costumes/skins.
The iconic suit looks like a minion for some type of captain america task force,
Like batman's cops in justice league unlimited when he become justice lord or superman's soldiers in bvs
Yea
@@wiggard probably
I think the reason the Front Line suit has glitches in the face because they didn't skin weight it. When you're making the rig (skeleton) for a model and combining it with the model, they won't automatically synchronize so you have to actually paint on what parts of the model should move when the skeleton moves. So when using the Front Line suit, instead of skin weighting the new model so it matches with the rig, it looks like they just kept the skin weight info from the base model and causing the face to not match right.
A big problem I have with Cap's outfit collection is the fact that they only ever use the round shield, even for outfits like the pre order bonus that should have the old heater shield design. Why does it bug me so much? Because when you're playing as Kamala trying to find Jarvis, you see the original shield in a glass case. The model is ALREADY in the game, why not use it? Especially for that pre order outfit, it would've made Steve's face constantly melting a bit more bearable if they put that bit of effort in.
I really enjoy your takes on the outfits in this game it's interesting to see perspectives of someone really into comics actually talking about these
Dorito God good outfit criteria:
1 Can't look realistic
2 Can't look too goofy or outlandish
3 cant be mid
lmao
He looks like a football player who's uniform is Captain America looking. Age of Ultron movie was always the best costume.
I also find it ironic that he looks just like a blue colored Soldier Boy from The Boys. Funny since Soldier Boy was an edgy parody of Steve.
Ima use the Hydra suit just so I can be soldier boy in this game lol
@@WooIverine I like the Living Legend and Marvel Now suits though
These suit related videos are great to watch. The Iron Man suit video is what introduced me to your channel and I really enjoy these type of videos
I love how you ended up uploading this video after the announcement of this game's cancellation lol.
I would like to see you discuss every character's skins. Both of the videos you have made have been very interesting to watch, and this one was a great reminder of how Iron Man is the only character in this game that has good skins. This game doing such a bad job with its' art style and skins (most of which you have to pay for until they make them all free when the game dies) really just makes me appreciate Spider-Man PS4 even more for its' beautiful art style and the way it handled skins. Insomniac's designers are truly top tier.
Wait, they are gonna close the servers?
@@cristobalbarra583 The game will still be playable, they just won't be adding anymore content to it or providing customer service.
Full details:
- The game's final planned update that will enhance traversal will be on March 31.
- On March 31, ALL cosmetics will be given to the players for free.
- Sadly, no refunds will be given to players who purchased cosmetics.
- On September 30, the game will be removed from all storefronts, and they will no longer be providing customer service, or doing server maintenance. Which means if the servers have any problems after Sep 30, there's no guarantee that they're gonna fix it.
- If you manage to find a Pre-Owned copy of the game after September 30, and it's your first time playing the game, you will still be able to play the game normally.
- Spider-Man will remain exclusive to PlayStation even after the game dies.
@@BillDozer bro the no refund is so messed up, is like, look you have to pay for this because is kinda rare and exclusive, but then hey would give all the shit for free and basically say to the players who buy things fuck you, imagine making that game and still being an asshole
@@cristobalbarra583 I mean, they paid for the skins and were given the skins. Why should everyone get a refund? Maybe if you bought a skin in the last couple months? Sure. But it's dumb to say everyone needs to be given a refund.
@@TommFoolery Yeah, I agree with this. If you bought a skin all the way back in 2020, then there's really no reason to be given a refund since that was a long time ago, and that money would've went towards adding content to the game. I feel like at least if you bought a skin sometime within the last 3 or 4 months you should get a refund, but they're not even doing that, which sucks.
The idea shown at 17:49 has a very interesting version used in the MCU suit: the straps Cap has in the shoulders/chest (that looks like when comics cap use the shield straps like a backpack) has the magnet to hold the shield and the way the magnet is shaped to connect the straps looks like a star
old shirtless cap is the embodiment of "some bloke from Brooklyn"
Thank god you made this video.
I need content of someone hating on superhero costumes to survive.
Also, it's criminal how Cap is as skinny as Homelander (TV show, outside the suit).
More, more, MORE! But I seriously subbed for these, and I'm glad you're doing more.
00:10 funny enough I clicked on this video to help me fall asleep 😂
The shade thrown with "live" service in the description lol
4:53 That's one of the reasons I like the Deathstroke & Wintergreen suits, Even if they have a zipper, at least is covered by armor padding, a strap & Belts, unlike the others
19:41 I burst out laughing when I saw this suit. It looks like a Corgi 😂
Idk man, the Sunny Days outfit for Black Widow, she's pretty muscular, at least compared to Johansson
1:30 yeah, he looks like a SWAT member who was a really big fan of Cap
I can’t wait to see you cover the Thor and Hawkeye outfits
The first suit looks good if it was a cosplayer who used to be a cop. That's the vibe I get from it like a boys in blue honoring the police fan art or like a variant cover costume you'd see for like a day to honor cops. Feel it so needs some more color and could scale back on the unnecessary bits like the forearm guard things or the knee pads.
Also, I always found it weird that they changed rhe name of "the new vintage" costume from "Ultimate patriot" (or something like that). It always made me wonder if they were planning to actually use that skin as a base for an Ultimate comics skin.
There's a couple of suits you gave 6/10 that I think are actually solid 8/10. The one with scales looked pretty good.
Heavy armor on Captain America just doesn't work for me as it just unnecessary due to Cap's reflexes and agility is so great that the only defense he really needs is his shield, plus being physically more durable than average humans as well.
They gave cap a furry suit lol
I personally think the Endgame suit is an 8/10 not only because of no white arms but also his gloves look like he took some off a 3 year old.
You know who pulled off the "soldier" look? Captain America: the first avenger. Brilliant design.
I will never understand the obsession to make costumes unnecessarily different from the comics version. The fNew Vintage suit is close, but those pants bug me so much, and it's partly a asset reuse. I hate how this game cuts corners with its cosmetics.
Oh my god it really does look like the Thin Blue Line flag. I knew I hated this suit for a reason
I weirdly like the makeshift costumes only to make a group photo of all the avengers in really shitty gear and laugh, featuring:
Hospital Cap
Fighter pilot Tony
Donald Blake
5 O'clock shadow hulk
Normal/Makeshift Kamala
Jacket Natasha
I'm not sure when this was edited but the point about the Route 66 suit while valid won't matter after March 31st as they are making ALL marketplace items free after that date. So use the ones you like
It's like Steve in the Avengers- the video game universe never took the serum or something.
Supporting the argument that Cap shouldn't have a stubble, a man from his era is definitely one of those old geezers who only shaves with a straight razor or safety razor giving a very clean shave unlike modern trimmers that can leave a short stubble
5:35 what the hell is up with his forearms 😂😂😂 BY THE GODS THE UPDATED ONE HAS ABS WAY TOO HIGH- 💀💀💀
I like how you noted the missing white bands around the arms on the Endgame suit. Literally that's the only thing that puts the Age of Ultron suit above it for me. It made sense tonally why they got rid of them for Civil War, but it feels like they just forgot to put them back when he gets his new suit in Endgame.
From what I heard from CD is that the entire Marketplace will now be free. I've gotten the preorder suits before the game came out because I enjoyed the look of them, just never used them plus for the longest time, all my base line characters used the Stark Tech suits because they looked pretty good minus the Hulk's one as it kind looked funny with how it moved on him but the design of it was good just not the way it moves.
For me personally, in terms of build? It's always on a hero by hero basis. Let me put it this way: Mr. Fantastic can be a twig. A human Green Lantern should probably be either a twig or fat at some point. Jack Black as Green Lantern? Not a bad idea, depending on what you want out of him. King Kong mode Jack Black, for example, as Green Lantern could have been FANTASTIC. The idea that got leaked? Where we were would have been dealing with Orange County/Year One/Gulliver's Travels mode Jack Black? AWFUL. Rightfully canned.
Never have opinions again
that zipper pissed me off so mucb
An easy fix for the whole extra padded chests, is to also pad the shoulders out as well. It would help even the proportions out
I'm glad you picked something that is actually good to watch, i.e Battlefront.
Ayyyy! You included my Cap “blue lives matter” reference from the other video! Awesome.
Seeing the quality of their suits that are recreations of ones from the comics versus the suits that are recreations of ones from the MCU is really just night and day
You know what infuriates me? Neither Captain America or Bucky have a Bucky Cap costume! Like wtf?! It’s one of the coolest costumes ever!
Midnight suns got the look right. Avengers got the voice right
I hate how they just have to have something change, they will have 99% of the suit accurate, but they have that urge just to mess up a design when reality they didn’t really have to do
Zippers and random lines:
_hey_
I think secret cure is fine because it’s like when he frist gets the super soldier serum.
Make shift iron man mark one and proto type mark 2 is just taking the piss.
I don’t blame having a mark two because it’s just a recolor and it looked dope in Ironman two.
The American Dream skin just looks like a summer camp counselor that's going to be getting a lot of angry phone calls from parents once the kids get home.
I use Ultimate Patriot the most, as it's his best comic skin that matches with everybody else's modern looks.
I'm not mad at CD for trying to put their own spin and be inspired by comic costumes, they just pale by comparison when all the MCU skins blow them clean out the water.
Tbf they have been getting closer and closer to comic accuracy as the game went on, just a shame we're no longer gonna get anymore, there's a few more Cap skins I would've loved to have seen; Ultimates, Cel Shaded without the Cel Shade, Age of Ultron, Civil War etc....
"Brief"
I'm kidding, love the videos keep makin' em!
So this game was just announced to be dying in September of 2023, literally last night they said we would be getting no more updates, as someone who barely played this game, I was honestly kinda surprised at that announcement, either way one day I hope we get a real avengers game
For a super soldier, he’s built like a pretty average human
Cap's default suit really is a worse version of the First Avenger (movie) suit. The suit he wears in First Avenger really successfully balances the tactical soldier setting with Cap's classic costume, while the game's default suit looks more like a soldier or swat officer with a captain america theme.
I think the Endgame costume is frustratingly close to perfection as far as modernization of the classic scales suit goes. I agree with your one problem that keeps it from being 10. He needs the white sleeves for color breakup! imo the red lines on the arms, while they help and are better than nothing, are still only a flimsy band-aid for what it's lacking. Also also, wish the gloves and boots were a bit more red. Frankly would love it if they were entirely red but I guess they could be brown base so long as there's plenty of red highlights in the detail.
"i dont like the star tech suit bc its basically the iconic suit but with metal on it"
Also him reviewing suits that are just recolors of the iconic suit and some shirtless suits 💀
Your point
Yeah the second my physique was the same as Cap, I knew there was a problem
I think the main issue with Caps default suit is the fact they went with a realistic look for what he would wear but then made literally everyone else as comic booky as possible,
like Ironmans default suit in this game look like it should give 0 protection to gunfire because it’s so thin looking on the metal, it looks like if somebody punched him with brass knuckles it would hurt him through his armor and meanwhile black widow is still just running around in a skin tight still.
like they really should have just gone fully with one or the other and not mix its either go fully armored realistic or go full comic book having it be different between characters just looks weird.
The cel-shaded skin is cool.........that's all I'm gonna say.........
"A brief look" he said during the 30 minute long video
Genuinely wonder how more varied costumes are going to be used for like, the 50 people still playing this game once it's all free like it probably should have been.
...or everyone'll just exclusively use the MCU suits, that's probably more likely.
Cap having stubble also goes against his character.. him being an army man he would be used to shaving with a straight razor, so he SHOULD be absolutely clean shaven as part of his uniform attire.
Him having stubble shows him being a modern man who uses an electric razor, and that doesn’t fit his character or his look.
The iconic cap works in a universe that's more "realistic" and has Cap working closer with Law Enforcement. But other wise, I agree with your points.
Not really, it isn't realistic because it's not a military armor. Its just meaningless padding and armoring. Cap is very skinny too so the padding makes him look fat. Seems like it's realistic, but it's not.
Ayy SWB2 alright!!
Great video
Also, movie cap can rock the beard, but game cap looks weird with it, you can tell its someone else’s facial hair, not his.
Correct! It's actually Tony's beard from the campaign.
@@DoritoGOD2811 fucking really?
@@wiggard Yep. It's especially noticeable due to how pointy the beard is.
... wow. People spent MONEY on these? Well, they're all gonna be free after March, so get 'em then.
Also, the Batman Arkham games and the PS4 Spider-Man each did a terrific job of bringing in suits from the comics and not compromising on their designs for the sake of "realism" (OK. the Batman Beyond suit in Arkham Knight is an exception).
I actually really like the suit from the winter soldier that’s the one I have equipped!!
I think my biggest problem with the suits here that you mentioned is that so many of them have that zipper down the middle, it just ruins the looks of so many of them and while many would still not be great, if they removed the zipper I feel so many would be better
I've always said this but the iconic suite looks like leon Kenedy from the re2 remake
12:40 imagine the town is in trouble and captain America comes running in with this get up. Your be like :|
I simply cant wait for the Hulk video!!!
If they wanted to make a base Captain America suit for the game, they should have used the Marvel Now Captain America Suit that looks similar, but at least it doesn't look like Swat gear lol
This game's version of the Secret Empire suit it's straight up Captain Jamaica
Captain "Dad Bod" America isn't doing any of his costumes any favors.
Holy shit! That Americana recolor looks 🔥.
Why does this game seem to absolutely hate Captain America LOOKING like a super hero?
Lmfao agreed
Spent several minutes talking about needing a better physique for cap only to deny wanting to see him shirtless lol
Shirtless and skinny.
His classic armor is supposed to mimic the scales of dragon scale armor . can't understand why they chose the square stuff
Although I don’t like this game, I will say I wish you could’ve swapped around visual elements from the suits.
Imagine if you could’ve given a color scheme from one suit and put it onto the design of another. Like you could have Iron Man mark one with the red and yellow, or the MCU suit for Captain America in US agent colors. Or maybe if you want to give any of the Captain America suits the self shaded look.
The werewolf costume makes him look like a furry, instead of an actual scary and monstrous looking. They should’ve made the mask all torn up, and make him bigger. He’s more of a corgi rather than a wolf.
Really like this video. Thought you harped on the muscle thing a bit much. I agree, it just took up a lot of space in the video.
Also RIP to the game. Bittersweet to see it die
Honestly I realize now that Cap is sort of built like a astronaut when he’s wearing his suits and not casual clothing🤣 also to add, thank god I didn’t drop a lot of money on some skins because I heard that we’re going to get almost every skin for free once the game officially shuts down in September.
26:55 WAIT WAIT WAIT does cap have the same head on both posters i never notice that until right now wtf happened there
i logged on just to like your video and subscribe. God tier content man
I REALLY dislike the arms of his costumes. They lack any sort of definition, ESPECIALLY at the elbow joint area. Makes it look like he's wearing a puffy jacket or something and it really doesn't compliment his form.
