Not really feeling Danger Room

With the recent Midtown event and 100% XP, I was able to get Dr. Strange, Star Lord and Gambit to level 60. I have Taskmaster, Hulk, Juggernaut, Ghost Rider and Moon Knight left to get up to that, but Im not really interested in playing as them. If any, it would be Hulk, whom, I had some fun messing around with. Resisting the urge to buy anyone bc I know there will be a random hero token at the end of the event and dont want to risk getting a duplicate

Maybe I should try doing the end game material now as I never really bothered. I could also try to get into the enchanting and crafting

 

[ComicChick]

this is PC Only correct?

 

[zenith16]

this is PC Only correct?

the first home living room platform versionofthis game is in on one of the steam machines Link

Detail are in the quote I put up below from PcGamesN

more detail on the home console steam machines link can be found here http://forums.superherohype.com/showthread.php?t=449953&page=11
it'll make it way to other living room plat forms some time after.
Which ones have yet to be said. Mostly due to in fights on the marvel heroes forums from the console sidefans and those fans that are afraid the pc side will be left behind when work start those said consoles. so they have been taking their time with the other console sides announce ments an focusin on content while they controller support.


the thing that's happening for sure besides the team link home platform of this game being start for the other home platforms being the start of it all is the controller support for all known home console controllers.

Marvel Heroes 2016: Gazillion plan another bumper year for David Brevik's action-RPG




11 hours ago Comments 1
When Marvel Heroes was coupled to the word ‘2015’ two summers ago, it wasn’t simply to signal the fact that Gazillion planned to carry on...
Read more

So far, the next year promises a Secret Invasion story chapter with attendant new enemies and NPCs, plus support for leaderboards and tournaments, and an option for gamepads.


Controller support wasn’t exactly what you’d call a choice for Gazillion. For one, it’s felt mandatory in the genre since Diablo III hit consoles. For another, Marvel Heroes players were already resorting to homebrew solutions involving external software and .ini file fiddling. Felling frost giants from your couch via Steam Link or in Big Picture Mode is, apparently, a “pretty great” feeling.




“We wanted to give it some more formal support and make it function smoothly,” explains Lind. “It’s in early testing, and we really like the feel and think it will be exciting for many players. It’s a big challenge to make some important things work with the controller, but it’s definitely been worth it.”

Perhaps the shift from the study to the living room has engendered a philosophical change at Gazillion, too. They’ve started talking lately about short session play.

“Not everybody has time for a four hour session every day - even the most hardcore players,” muses creative designer Ryan Collins. “But it feels good to make progress towards a goal.”


To that end, the studio have designed Danger Rooms: randomised, repeatable endgame scenarios with clear objectives. Rather than shoot for a rare item and pray to the patron saint of percentages, players earn ‘merits’, a form of currency that’s intended to provide incremental, tangible progress.
“A lot of MMO type games are really exploring this,” says Collins, “and I think they’re better for it.”

The noisiest feedback from the Heroes community - like that which buoyed controller support - will continue to steer Gazillion’s priorities over the coming year. Spidey-associated antiheroine Black Cat is the first new character in their calendar, but the second is Neil Gaiman’s angelic bounty hunter, Angela - implemented in accordance with a public vote. As more names are announced, say Gazillion, the guiding hand of their community will become apparent; a game-directing hive mind resembling the school of fish in Finding Nemo.

Marvel Heroes : Dave Brevik Leaves Gazillion Entertainment

Posted Jan 08, 2016

VentureBeat.com is reporting that CEO and Gazillion Entertainment company founder David Brevik has resigned. According to the interview, acting CEO Dave Dohrmann has indicated that the split was an amicable one. Brevik has been instrumental behind the development of Marvel Heroes 2015.
UPDATE: The text of David Brevik's forum post at Marvel Heroes 2015:

Almost 7 years ago, I joined Gazillion as the Creative Director for a new Marvel product. I still can’t believe that this dream came true. I have been a life-long Marvel fan and I really relished the opportunity to create a unique and fun Marvel game.
Over the course of the next year, my job really changed. I went from Creative Director to the head of all Gazillion studios (there were many locations back in those days). Slightly after that, I was promoted to President and COO of the company and I became more and more distant from the project that brought me to Gazillion. About six months before Marvel Heroes launched, I became CEO, which is the position I have held for about three years now.
As CEO, I spent most of my time running the company. I played the game a lot, talked about the game a lot and added lots of feedback and new ideas, but that is a very different job than being a Creative Director. After doing this for several years, I really want to get back to developing games and programming. I got into this industry to make games and I miss the day-to-day creation process.
That said, it was difficult, because I love Marvel Heroes. I love our community. I love the team I helped assemble. We have an incredibly talented staff here and I know that the game is in great hands. I believe in the future of the game and I know a lot of the amazing things that are being worked on. The game has some really cool features coming that I know I will enjoy. Yes, I will still be playing the game. Yes, I will still be streaming. I will still be sending the team feedback and information and suggestions. I may not work at Gazillion, but I love this game. I’m very proud of what we accomplished.
As for what’s next, I am going to go indie. I’m going back to doing the things I love most: programming and making games. We will have more information about that in the future.
Thank you team, community and family for a wonderful seven years together. I am so lucky to be a part of such an incredible experience.
Best,
David
​

In a statement Gazillion thanked Brevik and said, “After six years with the company, David Brevik has moved on from CEO of Gazillion to other opportunities. David has played an integral role in the growth and success of Gazillion, most notably leading the development of the acclaimed Marvel Heroes 2015 – and we greatly appreciate his many contributions to the game and the community.”
Brevik said in a statement, ““Creating Marvel Heroes has been a work of passion for over six years. It was my first opportunity to work on a live-service product and interact with our amazing community and it has been one of the best experiences of my life. I’m very proud of all the work our talented team has done together. Though the time has come for me to move on, I’m excited about the future of Marvel Heroes and look forward to what’s next from studio director Jeff Lind and the team.”

David Brevik’s new company is Graybeard Games; expect an RPG

January 9, 2016 18 Comments



During a stream of Marvel Heroes led by his wife last night, former Gazillion CEO David Brevik announced that his new company is called Graybeard Games. He didn’t elaborate on his first project except to say it will be a PC game, probably “RPG-oriented” and will begin with just himself; he says he can’t imagine more than three people on his future team. Brevik announced yesterday that he was parting ways with Gazillion, amicably, because he wanted to return to developing games and programming specifically. “I got into this industry to make games,” he told Marvel Heroes players, “and I miss the day-to-day creation process.” He repeated those feelings on the stream starting at roughly the 9:00 mark.

“The fact of the matter is that being CEO doesn’t allow me to be a game developer. […] I still could contribute; I still was able to give feedback and come up with ideas and direct some stuff […] from afar – but not really be involved with the actual creation of the game and not doing any programming and things like that. In fact, Marvel Heroes is the very first game that I’ve ever worked on that I didn’t do any programming. […] Being CEO for a while is just… I didn’t get into the video game industry to be a CEO, right? I didn’t grow up when I was a kid and say, ‘I can’t wait to be CEO of a company.'”

[Havok83]

They announced Advance Pack 3 today and people are mad! Only 6 heroes (7 if you count the unnamed one) and most notable, no X-men or mutant characters. Ms. Marvel and Miles Morales will be added as Team ups. STILL no word on the 2016 update

i say big eh to the characters. Black Bolt looks the most interesting followed by Angela, but the rest? What the heck does Fury even have to offer? Elektra looks like she'd play boring

 

[zenith16]

hmmm they shouldn't be unless they weren't part of the votes,

these are the results of polls with in the marvel heroes forum's and I remember another poster came here and said they're doing votes and magik was posted against Nick and iron fist in many votes and this was the result.

we have magik and iron fist and kitty that were put up in other packs prior due to the votes and I remember there a very vocal crowds that act like certain poster that goes by the name of stark here on this forum that wanted there to be a pack that didn't include a mutants cause they always ended up the worst argument in the MH forums there.

I'm sure the next will include a mutant in the next pack.


Angela was mention later last year which I did put up here.


black bolt was hinted as unsure they wanted to get closer to the movies date. It seems he's closer then expected now.

but Electra & Nick fury jr which the latter was stateded past reports was a thing was talked about alot and put up a few times and Nick is supposedly called "Nick cro mancer" as play on the Necromancer, which be what he'll be able to do

 

[zenith16]

so as havok stated this is from tribale sage thread. I'm relating it here. per usual




Marvel Heroes 2016 launch ETA: By the end of January.



☆☆ GENERAL AND HINTED EVENT INFO ☆☆

Please note that some of these things were hinted at and not definite.
Civil War - An event/zone may be coming to MH in the future.
Infinity Gauntlet - "We will do Infinity Gauntlet in the future, it is discussed fairly often."
Super Hero Squad Online Crossover - At one point Gaz was in discussion for this.
Terminal Tuesdays - It's been mentioned several times to be coming. I haven't heard anything for awhile about it though.


☆☆☆☆☆ PLAYABLES 2015 ☆☆☆☆☆

☯ BLACK CAT ☯

She will be voiced by Jennifer Hale(voice Black Cat on the 94' Spiderman cartoon. )
01/05/16 In development, currently undergoing art polish. She has a mix of grappling hook whip-thing and claw powers at her core, a series of traps that utilize some awesome new tech that we'll be retrofitting to other characters (charge counters), and several powers that talk to her "bad luck" powers. No ETA on TC, because she's not close enough to give an exact date.

☆☆ 2016 ANNOUNCED PLAYABLES AND GENERAL INFO ☆☆

​

06/30/15 "I don't think we're locked to 12 a year at all. There's no guarantee that all 12 heroes from an Advance Pack will ship in a year, and we may decide to ship/pre-sale fewer/more in the future as well. No real plans for either scenario, just wanted to clarify before people think that's gospel."
It was stated at the time of the poll where Angela won that they didn't add X-Men because they already had those picked out..(something obviously changed)

☯ GREEN GOBLIN ☯

He has been officially announced as a 2016 playable and will be after Black Cat.





☯ ELEKTRA ☯

She has been officially announced as a 2016 playable.





☯ NICK FURY ☯

He has been officially announced as a 2016 playable.

The following info has been left on this thread, as it could pertain to him.
08/29/15 Mr. B has stated that Marvel said that it is ok to have "Nickromancer".
Update 04/25/15 Nick Fury anytime soon? - "I would love to do Nick Fury, there are many designs for him internally. I'm actually recording with Keith David next month, but it's for motion comics and stuff. I would be lying if I didn't tell you I was also recording a playable dialogue, just in case, just in case.... Plus I get to hang out with Keith David which is awesome."




☯ ULTRON ☯

He has been officially announced as a 2016 playable.





☯ ANGELA ☯

She has been officially announced as a 2016 playable.




☯ BLACKBOLT ☯

He has been officially announced as a 2016 playable.

The following info has been left on this thread, as it could pertain to him.
05/30/15 In some of the newest comics have a visualization of his powers so a playable version would be based off those.




☯ UNDETERMINED HERO ☯

Making a six character pack was really hard since we usually do twelve, so we hemmed and hawwed until we decided that we could squeeze in a seventh hero, but an undetermined one. If you know anything about undetermined heroes in our game, you know it can mean one of a few things: 1) We weren't ready to announce them, 2) We're not sure if we can pull a hero off, 3) We want to do a fan vote 4) We couldn't decide. It's probably all of the above in this case. If you want a particular character in that seventh slot, start campaigning now.





☆☆☆☆☆ LEVEL 52 REVIEWS ☆☆☆☆☆

☆☆☆☆☆ COSTUMES ☆☆☆☆☆



Visual Updates ETA: SOME OF THEM will happen on the Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch.




☯ DR STRANGE ☯

1602 - ETA: ??

☯ IRON MAN ☯

Superior Iron Man Enhanced - ETA: 2016 but later down the line. Update 01/08/16 Ryolnir: The voice has been recorded, but it's been delayed a few times due to modeling time being stolen (by other cool things) and our seemingly never ending list of movies to pull Iron Man costumes from. It'll happen in 2016, but probably later down the line.

☯ ROCKET RACCOON ☯

Symbiote Rocket Raccoon with Symbiote Groot - This will be the next enhanced costume, it won in the costume poll. On 04/27/15 it was added to a poll along with 4 other costumes that the community will vote on to determine what is the next Enhanced costume would be. As with Movie Star-Lord/Rocket and the Groot Team-Up, Drax/Gamora/Groot Team-Ups would switch to match Symbiote Rocket, only after Symbiote versions of those Team-Ups are made first.
Update 01/08/16 Ryolnir: In approvals still! This one has been taking a long time to get approved. Voice is all done, model almost there. Then VFX.


☯ SPIDER-MAN ☯

Iron Spider - He is an Advance Pack 3 timed exclusive, meaning that players who purchase the pack will get the costume at least 30 days before anybody else. It will be an Enhanced costume, of course.




2099 - In 2014 it was stated it will be coming in the future. 02/25/15 No definitive plans for it, specifically not in 2015. On 04/27/15 it was added to a poll along with 4 other costumes that the community will vote on to determine what is the next Enhanced costume would be.




☆☆☆☆☆ GAME MECHANICS ☆☆☆☆☆

Dedicated Movement Button - In a nutshell: Free Travel Power for All (including new ones for those that don't have it now), Dedicated Hotkey and Much, much faster.
Previous statement about Movement button - 10/10/15 There will be a dedicated button for movement without cost that will be for each character. example, Wolverine has the motorcycle, Storm has flight..."points will only need to be spent on moves that do damage"
Update 01/08/16 Ryolnir: Teleports are not travel powers, FWIW. They have more in common with dashes. You don't hold a hotkey to use them currently. Travel powers are channeled.



☆☆☆ SEASONS, LADDERS, LEADERBOARDS ☆☆☆☆☆

ETA: Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch

Previously stated: The first ones will be for example, global leaderboards such as, who has the most achievement points, who has the most defeats in midtown etc. Seasons will spawn out of this.
07/02/15 Yeah, we are thinking about doing endless leveling for a "Seasons/Leaderboard" style feature in the future. Still requires some thought. 05/11/15 Something they may do first for pvp is introduce some sort of Ladder tech, this won't just be for pvp however. Previously, as early has 2014 they have mentioned both ladders and leaderboards coming to the game for PVP and in April 2015 it was mentioned again.
☆☆ GEAR/ITEM ENHANCEMENTS/STARKTECH 2.0 ☆☆

Axis Artifacts - Previously Amthua mentioned he created Axis Artifacts. On 01/11/16 Asros mentioned that they still exist. The current plan for Red AXIS is that it will have all new rewards, possibly including those, or versions of those.


☆☆☆☆☆ CRAFTING/ENCHANTMENTS ☆☆☆☆☆

Crafting Revamp - ETA: Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch



☆☆☆☆☆ OMEGA SYSTEM ☆☆☆☆☆

Omega Cap and next tab(Interstellar Exploration) ETA: Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch

Here's a pic of the Temperal Manipulation node. No ETA for this. It's been stated this was spoiled by Doomsaw but is new news to me.



☆☆☆☆☆ STORY MODE/MISSIONS ☆☆☆☆☆

Cosmic Story Mode: 01/05/16 Bentlegiant - I actually pitched Cosmic Story Mode to Doomsaw a long, long time ago and it was received favorably. Again, it's something on my list that I'd love to do, but isn't currently in development at this time.
Story Mode Revamp for chapters 5-9: 01/05/16 Completing the rest of the Story Mode revamp is still on my list of things to do. It's moved down a bit due to the need to get Secret Invasion out in a timely manner, and there are some upcoming Content initiatives that may also take precedence. As many of you know, the Content team at Gazillion is rather small, so we're forced to tackle things carefully in order to keep up!

Stated in 2014: Atlantis will be coming eventually. May not be in story.. not sure where to put this so it landed here.

Talk Of Chapter 10.

Live ETA: Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch

01/08/16 TC ETA update: Either next week or the week after.



☆☆☆☆☆ HITOWN PATROL ZONE ☆☆☆☆☆

Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch

Updated TC ETA: 01/08/16 Next week or the following week.

 

[zenith16]

☆☆☆☆☆ OTHER STUFF ☆☆☆☆☆



Talk of Add Ons

Add Ons - They will be done on Overwolf.com
Previously stated about Add Ons: 05/28/15 They are working on the tech to to allow players to use add-ons for the UI and other things. ETA Possibly June. Getting Malware from the add ons isn't really going to be possible. The add ons will be through a 3rd party program that will check for malware and things like that. Gaz will be deciding on what info they give to it. It will probably be a little at the start and extend over time once they see what the reaction is to it.



Talk Of Prestige beyond Cosmic

05/05/15 Doomsaw stated that Gaz has talked about Galactic Prestige and/or Unique Prestige. (Fuchsia/Brown). But it's nothing more than talk at the point it was stated.



Talk of Dance Emotes

On 03/02/15 Mr. B stated that Marvel did not approve them so they won't be coming any time soon. In 2014 it was stated that they were completed on a majority of characters.



Talk of Tenacity Revamp

On 02/25/15 Mr. B said that they are working on it.



Talk of Fortune Cards

02/23/15 Mr. B stated on stream that they have figured out a fair way to do currency for Mark 1 Fortune Cards. They may implement it into the game, but most likely take a few weeks if they do decide to add it.
Stated in 2014: MK7 cards will be coming, no ETA.

Michael Bitton : Marvel Heroes Advance Pack 3: Awesome or Meh?

Posted Jan 13, 2016


Last night, Gazillion surprised Marvel Heroes fans with an exclusive sneak peek at Advance Pack 3. We recently speculated on who might make the cut, and I think we did an OK job. Many of our picks made the roster, but that roster is also one character short than we anticipated (seven instead of our anticipated eight)
For me, 2016 is going to be a bittersweet year for new characters in Marvel Heroes. Truth be told, I’m a huge fan of most of the picks, but like anyone else, I’m a bit disappointed some of my most anticipated characters didn’t make the cut. There is hope, as the seventh character hasn’t been revealed (or decided on?) yet, but I’m curbing my expectations.
Read Michael Bitton's Marvel Heroes: Advance Pack 3: Awesome? Or Meh?

So, is Advance Pack 3 meh? Or awesome? Let’s dig through the list of new faces.
ANGELA
As I noted in last week’s piece, Angela just doesn’t do a whole lot for me. I mean, she’s got a great story and striking visual design, but I’m finding it hard to imagine what will really draw me to the character. Then again, I’m not a game designer, so maybe the folks at Gaz will surprise me here.

​

RATING: Meh.




BLACK BOLT
Sadly, there aren’t as many Inhumans on this list as I expected. In fact, there’s only one! But I suppose if you are going to make room for one Inhuman, it may as well be the King of Inhumans, Black Bolt. I’m pretty ecstatic about this addition. Black Bolt is a great character to follow through the comics (be sure to pick up Uncanny Inhumans!) and his destructive voice will offer a unique approach to dispatching your enemies.

RATING: Awesome.


GREEN GOBLIN
We nailed this one last week and I couldn’t be happier for it. Justice! Angela may have won the fan vote, but the Goblin, his Glider, and his bag of tricks are sure to spice the roster up this year. This is easily my most anticipated character on the list.

​

RATING: Awesome.


NICK FURY
No confirmation on whether or not Nick Fury will be the “Nickromancer” fans have been hoping for, but I’m willing to bet Gazillion won’t disappoint here. Despite my love for Magik, I’ve never had the desire to play her as a summoner and I’m not really a fan of any of the other summoners in the game. Nick Fury could change all of that. Calling in a bunch of SHIELD dudes, and who knows what else, sounds like a lot of fun.

​

RATING: Awesome.


ULTRON
I’ve always found Ultron to be one of Marvel’s most boring villains in the comics and I can’t say I was a fan of him on the big screen either (or the movie itself, for that matter). Needless to say, I’m not at all excited for this pick. For those of you who are fans, he could be a fun blaster summoner type á la Dr. Doom.

​

RATING: Meh.


ELEKTRA
For me, Elektra is problematic for the same reasons as Angela. The difference is that I am a huge fan of the character. I’ve always loved Elektra and it was a damn shame that Marvel had to cancel her awesome solo book, but what the heck am I going to be doing with her in game? I feel like I might enjoy leveling her and maybe even red prestiging her, but I can’t see a character as simple and straightforward as Elektra keeping my attention for long beyond that. That’s not to say that Gazillion shouldn’t add characters like Elektra (or Angela) to the game, but the pressure is really on when it comes to your yearly roster and this is doubly true when your roster is roughly half the size it usually is. Kudos on that, by the way. Quality over quantity!
On the plus side, maybe this is a sign Gaz will get the rights to the Netflix costumes.

​

RATING: Meh-ish?


I’ll be glad to eat crow later if she turns out to be awesome.



???
Who will our lucky number seven be? I’m hoping Gazillion leaves it up to a fan vote. Even though we did end up picking Angela last time, I have faith that the community will select someone more interesting this time around. There are some fan favorites that were left off of this year’s list and almost all of them would make for a great seventh pick.

It should come as no surprise that I’d want Angel/Archangel to make it in such a scenario, but I’d also be happy with Spider-Woman, Bishop, Ms. Marvel, or Quake.

​

WHAT ELSE?
Advance Pack 3 also comes with some other goodies, namely four new team-ups (Ms. Marvel, Miles Morales Spider-Man, and two TBD), and a timed exclusive enhanced costume: Iron Spider for Spider-Man. I’m one of those weirdos that runs most of his team-ups passive, so I don’t really get too excited for new ones, but boy oh boy am I stoked for that Iron Spider enhanced costume. Symbiote Spider-Man will always be my favorite, but Iron Spider is a close second. I can’t wait to swing around in red and gold.

​

WHAT’S MISSING?
Mutants. Like the comics, Marvel has been marginalizing mutants in video games due to their little spat with Fox over the X-Men film rights. It’s really a disservice to fans, but at least so far Marvel Heroes has been an exception to this trend. Personally, I’ve been dreading the possibility that this trend would also hit Marvel Heroes, and I’m not really sure how to read Advance Pack 3 with that in mind. Is Gazillion now unable to get approval for adding new mutant characters to the game? I sure hope not. But I don’t suppose we’ll find out anytime soon.
I’m holding out hope that AP3 looks the way it does for no other reason than Gaz really wanted to add these specific characters to the game, but I don’t think I’ll be able to breathe a sigh of relief until Gaz announces a new mutant character.
What’s your take on Advance Pack 3? Will you be picking it up? Share your thoughts with us in the comments below!

Quick question. I used ES to get two random hero boxes today. When I opened them, I got the hero plus an extra default costume in my inventory (total of 2 each per hero). Is this a bug or is this supposed to happen? To my knowledge, that never happened before

On a side note, I got Spidey, Hawkeye and Rocket Raccoon all from RHBs and had none. Its kind of risky for me to even get them as Im about 50/50 on getting someone new or dupe

☆☆ GENERAL AND HINTED EVENT INFO ☆☆

Please note that some of these things were hinted at and not definite.
ARMOR! Starts at 12:01AM PST
Mystic Mayhem is technically next in the rotation, but with no patch this week there would be no midtown demons again, so we are swapping it with ARMOR.

☯ BLACK CAT ☯

She will be voiced by Jennifer Hale(voice Black Cat on the 94' Spiderman cartoon. )
01/05/16 In development, currently undergoing art polish. She has a mix of grappling hook whip-thing and claw powers at her core, a series of traps that utilize some awesome new tech that we'll be retrofitting to other characters (charge counters), and several powers that talk to her "bad luck" powers. No ETA on TC, because she's not close enough to give an exact date.

01/05/16 In development, still on track for January, with all the things mentioned in the original preview post. I personally love new Deadpool and can't wait to preview him live. Nothing more to really say there since we wrote up the preview.
They've added 60 or 70 new pieces of dialog. You will have the option to let him summon different Deadpools, such as Headpool and Deadpool the Kid. For his movement power he will ride a Vespa. Deadpool's current Ultimate, Server Lag has been moved to his signature move. His ultimate will be a random tornado made up of random projectiles such as flying concrete and missiles from other characters. The projectiles will start getting thrown out randomly at mobs.
Some of his powers/names of powers for his 52 review. Please note these are subject to change.

Bazooka, Giant Mallet, Hulk Hand Arrow, Moped, OmniSlash, Strafe, Multi player spec, Powerup Spec, God Mode Spec.

☆☆☆☆☆ QOL CHANGES ☆☆☆☆☆

Rogue's changes on TC are listed below.







☆☆☆☆☆ COSTUMES ☆☆☆☆☆



Visual Updates ETA: SOME OF THEM will happen on the Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch. 01/18/16 Some will be in TC this week.


Variant Costumes: 01/18/16 A new series of variant costumes is on the way. SIDE NOTE: Some of these may be listed in the thread already.




☯ BLACK WIDOW ☯

Visual Update ETA: Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch(shown in pic at the top of the costume section).


☯ HUMAN TORCH ☯

Uncanny Inhumans Costume - ETA: ??? Currently in TC.






☯ IRON MAN ☯

Superior Iron Man Enhanced - ETA: 2016 but later down the line. Update 01/08/16 Ryolnir: The voice has been recorded, but it's been delayed a few times due to modeling time being stolen (by other cool things) and our seemingly never ending list of movies to pull Iron Man costumes from. It'll happen in 2016, but probably later down the line.


☯ LUKE CAGE ☯

90s Costume - ETA:??? (Costume shown below)

☆☆☆☆☆ CRAFTING/ENCHANTMENTS ☆☆☆☆☆

Crafting Revamp - ETA: Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch


☆☆☆☆☆ OMEGA SYSTEM ☆☆☆☆☆

Omega System Changes may come in a bit hot. We may preview them extensively to get feedback before changes start happening, and feedback + testing will determine their release date. They're good, but they're not 100% key to the 2016 rebrand, and putting them out less than ideal doesn't help anybody.

07/02/15 Yeah, we are thinking about doing endless leveling for a "Seasons/Leaderboard" style feature in the future. Still requires some thought. 05/11/15 Something they may do first for pvp is introduce some sort of Ladder tech, this won't just be for pvp however. Previously, as early has 2014 they have mentioned both ladders and leaderboards coming to the game for PVP and in April 2015 it was mentioned again.

 

[zenith16]

☆☆☆☆☆ CRAFTING/ENCHANTMENTS ☆☆☆☆☆

Crafting Revamp Phase 1 - ETA: Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch







Visual Effects - It was stated in 2014 that you will eventually be able to transfer them.
Rune Conversion System - In 2014 it was stated that there were no plans for a rune conversion system. For those not sure of what the rune conversion system is, it's the system in Diablo 2. For example: 3 Ort Runes can convert to 1 Thul Rune.




☆☆☆☆☆ STORY MODE/MISSIONS ☆☆☆☆☆

Cosmic Story Mode: 01/05/16 Bentlegiant - I actually pitched Cosmic Story Mode to Doomsaw a long, long time ago and it was received favorably. Again, it's something on my list that I'd love to do, but isn't currently in development at this time.
Story Mode Revamp for chapters 5-9: 01/05/16 Completing the rest of the Story Mode revamp is still on my list of things to do. It's moved down a bit due to the need to get Secret Invasion out in a timely manner, and there are some upcoming Content initiatives that may also take precedence. As many of you know, the Content team at Gazillion is rather small, so we're forced to tackle things carefully in order to keep up!
Stated in 2014: Atlantis will be coming eventually but possibly not in story mode.
Talk Of Chapter 10.


Live ETA: Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch Jan. 28th or 29th

This is a full run of Chapter 10.

☆☆☆☆☆ HITOWN PATROL ZONE ☆☆☆☆☆

Marvel Heroes 2016 Launch

Updated TC ETA: 01/18/16 They expect it to be in TC this week.

06/19/15 "The Hightown Patrol mode will launch with Secret Invasion. It actually has to - it's completely integrated into the story progression. It will tie into the end of the upcoming Secret Invasion story chapter."
05/28/15 "The Secret Invasion patrol is a new environment that in mechanics is fairly similar to the Midtown Patrol. The reason for this similarity is that we are trying something experimental with this, which is to integrate the story flow into a patrol map. In other words, going through the new upcoming chapter will push you into the new patrol map where there will be both regular story objectives and repeatable patrol objectives. There are, understandably, both technical and design implications to this, and we are taking some lessons we have learned from Midtown in particular and working that into the physical design of the map, the distribution and type of events, and so on. We're also taking the step of attempting to integrate treasure rooms into the map, something we have historically been cautious about, since there are some potential pitfalls to this. This patrol is actually quite far along, though we still have some work remaining to do before we can begin iterating internally on the actual end-user gameplay experience."

Gazillion's "Marvel Heroes 2016" Initiative Begins Today

First Wave of Updates Includes New Story Chapter, Controller Support, Updated Character Models, Revamped Deadpool, Leaderboards, Playable Black Cat and More

FOSTER CITY, Calif., Jan. 29, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Gazillion, Inc., announced that its first wave of the Marvel Heroes 2016 initiative – the biggest update to its super-powered action-RPG in nearly two years – is available today for free download at MarvelHeroes.com and on Steam®. Today's update includes a number of highly requested improvements for PC and Mac gamers, highlighted by the following:

• "Secret Invasion" Story Chapter: Battle shape-shifting Skrull invaders, including the Super-Skrull and alien versions of Super Heroes, in this adaptation of 2008's Secret Invasion comic book event. Who do you trust? (A Fortune Card themed to the new chapter is also available.)
• Controller Support: For the first time ever, play with the likes of Xbox One® and Xbox 360® controllers, the Steam Controller, Logitech® controllers, and more on PC.
• Revamped Deadpool: The Merc with a Mouth has been part of the Marvel Heroes lineup since the beginning – and now with new animations, effects and nine new moves added to his power set, he's even better! (A new Zen Deadpool costume is also available.)
• Playable Black Cat: Voiced by Jennifer Hale, just as she was in the 1990s Spider-Man animated series, Felicia Hardy crosses our path as the game's 55th playable character.
• Agent Venom Team-Up: Once Peter Parker's high school bully, war hero Lt. Flash Thompson now hosts the Venom symbiote, ready to serve beside you.
• Steam Achievements: More than 50 achievements for those who play via Steam.
• Visual Updates: Starting with Captain America, Black Widow and Jean Grey, characters introduced with the initial launch of Marvel Heroes will be brought up to the more realistic visual standards of newer characters. Visual Updates for older character models will continue moving forward.
• Leaderboards: The most dedicated players will be recognized, as new Leaderboards begin to be continually added. Tournaments and Seasons will grow out of this eventually, as well.
• Mac Out of Beta: Just like it sounds.

"When we moved from Marvel Heroes to Marvel Heroes 2015, it was to showcase just how much the game had improved since its launch – but it's had another year and a half of improvements since then, and with today's launch of Marvel Heroes 2016, the newest additions make it even better," said Gazillion Studio Director Jeff Lind. "What we're launching today is just the beginning of what will be the biggest year yet for the game. Our awesome community expects regular updates, and they'll continue to get those – but it's the big content drops like today's first wave of the Marvel Heroes 2016 initiative where the game will really shine. You'll see these throughout the year, and the best announcements are yet to come."

Gazillion also recently announced the Advance Pack 3, which includes seven new playable characters for the coming year (Elektra, Green Goblin, Nick Fury, Ultron, Black Bolt, Angela and a Super Hero to be named later) and other in-game items at a discounted price of $59.99 for the Standard Edition. Meanwhile, a $79.99 Deluxe Edition adds in four new Team-Up Super Heroes to be added later this year, such as Spider-Man (Miles Morales) and Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan), as well as early access to the Iron Spider enhanced costume. Along with all other Super Heroes, both versions of Advance Pack 3 can be purchased at store.marvelheroes.com.
