I played last night for a bit, crashed every time I got too close to Venom during a world event... I'm sure it was my shitty computer but still annoying.

Regardless of that happening, I'm still not sure the game is going to be able to keep my attention for very long.

The hero I got for completing the storyline was Storm, when I did it with Black Panther.

Clearly Marvel Heroes knows I'm black.

Thursday Dev Update
Hello all,

I wanted to give you guys an update, but I don't have the time for a full dev blog today.


Here's some of the things we did today:

1. Worked on buffing many heroes. The focus here was making sure everyone was powerful. We made many small, medium and large changes. These changes will roll out over the next few patches.

Minor Example: Spider-Man starts with +1 more Energy so he doesn't get a penalty to Energy attacks.

Major Example: We made Spider-Man's ultimate do triple damage, penetrate boss tenacity (so they get stunned) and make sure the 100% dodge is working perfectly and correctly.


3. Worked on the Defense issue. Made buffs to a few parts of the game to help this issue and some research into the best solution. This is probably the most important specific design issue we are working on.

Example: Adamantium Skeleton, Bulwark of Steel, Hulk Tough and many more mitigation powers were buffed significantly.

Example: Started work to add % damage reduction attached to the Durability attribute.

4. Made changes to end-game rewards the most fun modes in a greater way. There are many of these.

Example: Increased experience and loot in red terminals.

5. Worked on a smaller new end-game feature codenamed Superhero Synergy for launch in late July.

6. Worked on a 5v5 PVP mode. This will roll out in late July at the earliest, late August at the latest.

7. Worked on a new end-game PVE mode codenamed Koayashi Maru. Funnest thing ever? You decide. (Changed the codename since this has absolutely nothing to do with the Infinity Gauntlet story in any way)

8. Did a little work on Torch.

9. Worked on floating combat text to make it look awesome and be accurate during scaling situations. More complicated than you may think.

10. Worked on new itemization for end-game players.

11. Worked on new PVE open-world zone.

12. Worked on tech to add health bar (optional) to bosses so you can see what's going on in Limbo.

13. Increased size of bosses by 25% so you can see them better in group settings.

14. Reduced a couple of the most expensive crafting costs.

15. Flintlock pistols.

16. Black Panther tribal hands clean up.


More from the last couple of hours:


17. Cleaning up UI to show damage multipliers on attacks so your tooltip always shows the damage you are doing after multipliers.

18. Sped up some hero abilities / attacks so they aren't clunky.

19. Buffing exp for discoveries (the little events you see happening all over)


I'll try to post a full dev blog at some point.

Thanks for reading!

by December, it might be good to play

Couldn't sleep so I figured I would check this sale out.

50% off Captain America now 600 Gs
25% Spider-Man, Deadpool & Iron Man now 1500 Gs

100 Gs off all 1200 Gs & 900 Gs Heroes
150 Gs off all 600 Gs Heroes

I had 2700 Gs banked, so I bought Captain America. I am considering picking up Iron Man, just going to sleep on it.

EDIT: Also, some Costumes are on sale.

wow, been reading about group kick griefing, looks they got a big new banhammer
Warning - Auto Bans for Griefing
We log player activity in a detailed manner, so tomorrow I will be asking for an analysis of the logs and ban every player who has done this from the beginning of time. It's very easy to tell who does it intentionally based on the timing of a boss kill and the timing of them kicking other party members.
Anyone who has done the "kick entire party after boss dies but before they can loot" even once will be banned. The first offense will be mandatory 1-year ban. Second offense will be lifetime ban.
I will offer a one-time amnesty option: If you are someone who did this, and you publicly post a sincere apology in this thread, I will reduce your first offense ban from 1 year to 1 week. Your deadline will be anytime before I have time to review the data.

I finally finished on my first character and got Hawkeye. He's actually quite fun to play. I was hoping for Thor or Rocket Raccoon though

Of all the games I'm halfheartedly playing right now I will say that this one gives me the most fun for a small time commitment.

Rofl, the shittiest companies always try to swing the biggest dick around.
lol, kinda like posters on this forum.




In other news, they are offering refunds if you bought a Hero or a Costume after 6/25 but before the sale.

In case you missed this detail at the bottom of our news story, I wanted to call it out clearly:

We know many game sales events vary their prices throughout the promotion, which can mean you miss out on a great bargain. We're committed to keeping these prices as-is for the entire 10 days until July 8th at 12:01AM PDT, so you can buy with confidence.

Some of you may have purchased a hero or costume in the last few days, not knowing this sale was about to start. If you have purchased a hero from the in-game store since Tuesday, June 25th, we will refund the difference (in Gs) between your purchase price and the sale price.

In addition, if you purchased a costume since Tuesday, June 25th, that has dropped in price by 400Gs or more, we will also refund the difference (in Gs) between your purchase price and the sale price.

Here are the costumes that have dropped in price by 400Gs or more in the sale:



Black Panther Tribal Costume
Black Widow Gray Costume
Cable Original Costume
Captain America Avengers Costume
Captain America Marvel NOW Costume
Captain America Original Costume
Colossus Classic Costume
Cyclops Classic X-Men Costume
Daredevil Secret Wars Costume
Hawkeye Modern Costume
Hulk Gray Hulk Costume
Iron Man Classic Armor Costume
Iron Man Mark V Costume
Iron Man Mark VI Costume
Jean Grey Marvel Now Costume
Ms. Marvel Agent of S.W.O.R.D. Costume
Scarlet Witch Heroes Reborn Costume
Spider-Man Classic Costume
Spider-Man Scarlet Spider Costume
Thing Black Jersey Costume
Thing Future Foundation Costume
Wolverine Leather Fang Costume



To claim your refund, you must contact Customer Support, who will verify your in-game purchase and then refund your account.

To contact Customer Support, login to your profile on Marvel Heroes.com and click 'Support' and 'Submit a Help Request'. Then use the dropdown menu to select 'Holiday Sale Issues' and send in your request.

Please note, due to the high volume of expected refund requests, your refund may take up to a week to process.

Refunds can only be granted for items that were purchased from the in-game store; heroes and costumes included as part of a pack are not eligible for refund.

Rofl, the shittiest companies always try to swing the biggest dick around.
Really the only way for them to instill fear in griefers and cheaters in a free to play game. I wish more companies would drop that hammer harder, but they don't and usually puss out after a day or two.

Now they just need to fix the stupid booting you to home base immediately after a kick, and let it wait a minute to kick you from the instance like wow does it, that way you get your loot anyways.

Still no hero drops after level 2.5 characters through the storyline about a week of dailies, just two costumes one of which I can't use (deadpool unmasked), not much motivation to play these days.

Spent the 2700 I had left on Captain America, Wolverine & Iron Man. Even with three new Heroes my desire to play is nearly zero. Might play while I catch up on some TV shows.

Some nice changes in there! They changed what hated most about Spidey, having to refresh that corrosive buff was horrible. Apparently I wasn't the only one that felt that way.

Wish they would let you vendor the keys you have to the crafting guy, as of now they are worthless. I bet I am not the only one asking for that, so I will hold on to them and see what happens.

Just found out they Gazillion said to hold on to your Cosmic Keys, "they will become something new."


cant log on since patch. Might be done with this for good.
I feel ya, my game time is way way down. Those patch notes give me hope and I have 3 new Heroes, so I am not done, I am just taking a break. Not done until the uninstall, which I have no plans for ATM.
