IGN also mentioned that the progression scaling in the Beta is not representative of the real game and you'll have less drops and gain experience at a slower rate. Plus they mention a challenge card system that is their take on a battle pass type system which i have no interest in at all.
Avengers has looked like "AAA Game: The Game" since the day it was revealed, using all the worst and most boring junk this gen ushered in. It's a shame too because I think there's a fun looking game in there somewhere buried beneath all of the live service, faux-MMO, loot/gear-overload stuff they've sandwiched in to try to get you to play a superhero beat 'em up for 500 hours. A 20-30 hour single player Avengers game with a great, tight story and interesting mechanics would've been awesome. This just looks... bleh.
