thank god. Every time I go away and want to log in, it takes forever to download and update whatever patch has been added since the last time I used it on my laptop

BTW, I did 500 days of service and got a random hero token. Redeemed it for Doom. Nice! I hear he's the best character in the game

Exclusive: Marvel Heroes releases Iron Man highlight trailer

May 26, 2016 21 Comments



Iron Man may not be a new character to Marvel Heroes, but he’s easily one of the best, and if you don’t agree, humor me because it’s Iron Man day, darnit, and Gazillion’s just released to MOP a brand-new video highlighting the badass playboy’s best combat moves and cleverest lines. Like Captain America before him, Iron Man is selflessly cross-promoting Marvel’s transmedia synergistic Civil War extravaganza. Boom is my favorite sound.

Now, if Disney can just manage not to not blow up the internet again today by making Tony a secret Nazi, I think we’ll all be relieved.
Watch the new trailer below!

Marvel Heroes’ third anniversary offers free heroes, team-ups, and more

June 3, 2016 8 Comments



By the hammer of Thor, it’s Marvel Heroes’ anniversary once again! Best time of the year, it is. While some MMOs mark their birthdays with some lame fireworks and useless titles, Marvel Heroes carves out an entire month to deliver events and beneficial presents to its players.




For its third birthday, Marvel Heroes has a lot in store for superheroes. Starting tomorrow, players can log on every day for free slices of birthday cake (and chances to earn more). These can be redeemed at a vendor for a free hero token, an Iron Man team-up, a potted Groot pet, and other rewards from previous anniversaries. Beginning at 2 p.m. EDT today, the team will be streaming the festivities on the official Twitch channel.


Every week this month will see an assortment of popular bonuses and events return, including Midtown Madness and Operation Omega. There’s even a new danger room scenario coming later in June starring Cable.
So which free hero will you be claiming this year?

☆☆ 2016 ANNOUNCED PLAYABLES AND GENERAL INFO ☆☆

☯ ULTRON ☯​

Asros said on the 05/12/16 stream Ultron is the next playable and his ETA is late June. When asked about his powers he said Ultron is heavily in development but it's fairly safe to say he will have lasers, some gravity stuff and summoning lots of robots.
Chufmoney mentioned on 06/03/16 stream said He is kind of similar to Dr. Doom in the sense that he has a summon tree, a ranged energy tree, and a semi ranged/melee physical tree." AlexWilliams stated: The secondary resource(spirit) would be known as bandwidth.


☆ QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENTS AND TUNING CHANGES ☆


Dr. Strange
MichaelMayhem on 06/03/16 stream: "I'm happy that Strange has held up for so long without much change. he's aged well. but i could see us doing a little something. we'll see. yeah, his third tree could use some polish to make it more viable."

☆☆☆☆☆ TEAM UPS ☆☆☆☆☆
Michael Mayhem made a huge post about Team Up Synergies and as to whether they would benefit the hero or the team up.

☆☆☆☆☆ UPCOMING COSTUMES ☆☆☆☆☆



☯ CAPTAIN AMERICA ☯
American Dream - Update 04/07/16 They are making improvements to the costume before releasing it and it is a high priority. Ryolnir said that it could take weeks but it will be done.
On 06/07/16 TheDink posted "American Dream was completely redone and I think awaiting Marvel Approval but I could be wrong." TheDink also mentioned the costume has big curly hair now.


☯ JEAN GREY ☯
New X-Men Jacket Variant - TheDink gave an update on 06/06/16 "It will be a "Variant" so hopefully some time in the near future ^^**

Queen Goblin - In the pipeline.


☆☆☆ VISUAL UPDATES AND MATERIAL PASS INFO ☆☆☆

Lord said that his plan is to put the main focus on launch characters, however there may be a costume here and there that may not be that gets a VU.
Storm, Jean, Invisible Woman and Nightcrawler - On 06/06/16 TheDink posted "I know @Lord wants to give Storm a VU but I am not sure where she is on that list. We still have Jean to finish...lol. Jean was the first one we started so she needs to be finished, not all of her costumes, just the older ones. I will try to squeeze in some time to do a material pass on MarvelNow and OML but after I do one of Sue's material pass as I have promised @keyotheseasons this for a long time! I still need to finish Nightcrawlers XForce as well......not enough time in a day.
On 06/07/16 She posted "I am currently working on Emma's material passes for her VU and new costume, it is more time consuming as she has her diamond form also but hoping to wrap those up today. If I have the time I would like to also give her OML and MarvelNow a material pass as well. I am working on Costumes, VU's and material passes so I am quite busy."
Emma and Hulk - Ryolnir posted on 06/06/16 that Emma's may come with Ultron's release(set for this month) and Hulk's VU.
"I just hope she(Emma) will not be on TC unfinished. I will be working on her "Punk" costume material pass today. I checked in her VU yesterday so she is pretty much done except for some minor testing. Working on her materials is crazy, she has a set of textures and materials for each version, normal and diamond form. So for example, let's see if I can explain this. Her VU for her normal look has 3 materials, her hair, her cape, and her body. Each material has several textures attached to them. Her body material alone has a Diffuse (the color) a Normal (the bump) a Spec (Highlights) and a Color Spec (extra bump for highlights and color) That is just one material, each material has all of those maps attached to them. Now, she also has all of those materials for her diamond form in any of the textures that show her skin (minus the cape) so those are doubled. A lot of work for one costume....lol The hair had to be its own material because I am using the old hair shader (alpha) because it looks nicer in the end although it is more $$$ in the engine. The cape is also it's own material for the cloth dynamics @AgentNikki worked on. So most may not understand all of this but at the end of the day..... A lot of work and love went into Emma ^^
TheDink posted on 06/07/16 Hulk VU is being worked on by NonForumArtist, have no clue when he will be out.

The second phase involves the UI, removing the travel power out of the power trees and into some dedicated UI element for the travel power itself. Please note that Teleports ARE NOT Travel powers.

☆☆☆ BOSS AND MOB IMPROVEMENTS ☆☆☆

Mob Improvements - On the 06/03/16 stream when a player asked about if there will be any changes to mobs to make them more interesting and have diversity, ChufMoney stated that "there's work being done to better differentiate the "mob soup."


☆☆☆☆☆ STORY MODE/MISSIONS ☆☆☆☆☆

Story Content 2.0/Cosmic Story Mode - As mentioned via the 06/03/16 stream over the next several months they want to revamp it to make story content better. They want to bring more Marvel into their content and make it a less confusing and fluid story experience which includes making systems like the mission log more fluid and letting players know they exist. There was mention of "Cosmic" story mode(which probably won't be named that) where players at level 60 would be able to play a cosmic-esk difficulty story mode. They will also making visual upgrades to story mode as well.

Dynamic Content Level Feature - They also mentioned something that was brought up last year I listed as "Unified Story Mode", where there would be dynamic scaling where players can play together at level 60 with a level 10 friend. If you are level 60 and go into a level 15 zone you will be treated as a level 15 and not as a level 60. They are hoping to get this out at the end of this month, but it's not a definite.

☆☆☆☆☆ THE DANGER ROOM ☆☆☆☆☆
Tactical Cake mentioned on the 06/03/16 stream that there will be a fix to the Danger Room that will promote playing with other players that will be coming eventually. There is no ETA.

New Environments - It was also mentioned they would like to add a new environment into Danger Room by the end of the year.


☆☆☆☆☆ RAIDS GENERAL INFO ☆☆☆☆☆

On the 06/03/16 stream Michael Mayhem talked a little about raids. He mentioned that raids have very little metrics in terms of people playing them(It's a very small portion of the community). The majority of players who do raid need 10 players to do them. Also not a lot of people have the groups to play raids with because 10 are needed most of the time, for the red raids at least. Due to the fact that not many people can experience the content it makes it difficult for Gaz to do more of them. Due to the things mentioned they are working on a renovation of the Muspelheim raid which is a 5 man version(or potentially even fewer). The 5 man version will be all new(similar mechanics but not the exact same). It will be smaller, quicker, and you will be able to queue for it much easier. You can think of it as a Muspelheim One Shot.

☆☆☆☆☆ SECRET INVASION RAID ☆☆☆☆☆

The Secret Invasion/Thanos Raid - Mayhem stated on the 06/03/16 stream it is not on the schedule for this year unfortunately.



☆☆☆☆☆ ONE SHOTS ☆☆☆☆☆

Michael Mayhem mentioned on the 06/03/16 stream that there are no plans for any new One Shots coming in the near future. They probably won't be perusing them anytime soon. One of the things he mentioned is that they are really expensive and time consuming to create and they don't really have a lot of replayability so they are putting there focus on things that do, like Danger Room for example.



☆☆☆☆☆ PVP ☆☆☆☆☆

Michael Mayhem on the 06/03/16 stream stated: "We have a lot of higher priorities than new or renovated PvP I'm afraid. We are overdue for the regular tuning passes but ultimately, PvP is very difficult for us to do. We have a game where the heroes are super fast paced and fun, and the mobs are relatively slow and cumbersome, which adds to the feel of being a superhero. I often see the "just make a patrol zone with open pvp enabled, its so easy!" but that's actually terrible. Trust me, we've tried. Hitting an extremely mobile moving target wasn't what the game was built for. Even just hitting Doop with certain heroes can be hard and he's awfully slow"

Marvel Heroes will introduce level scaling this month

June 16, 2016 18 Comments


Gazillion announced today that level scaling is finally on the way for Marvel Heroes.

“Dynamic Combat Level scales the difficulty of the game, based on the difference between your level and the enemy’s level,” explains the studio. “If you are a level 30 hero fighting a level 15 enemy, you’ll be dealing and taking similar damage as if you were level 15. You’ll still have all of your power points, unlocked powers, and gear quality of your real level, so you’ll still be much more effective than you were at level 15, you just won’t be exponentially moreso.”

Gazillion says its goal is to solve issues with people of different levels being unable to group properly and to scale highbies properly for lowbie content. When is it happening? Soon. As in June-soon.

Marvel Heroes : Dynamic Combat Level & You - A Player's Primer

Posted Jun 16, 2016


The Marvel Heroes 2016 forum has a brand new post to give players a forward look at a system that will be coming to the game soon. Called Dynamic Combat Level, the system essentially evens the playing ground between players of different character levels.

In essence, a level 40 fighting enemies with a level 15 friend will take equivalent damage as if he or she was also a level 15. That doesn't, of course, mitigate additional skills attained since level 15, but it does make playing with lower level friends more fun.
The post then details the reasons behind the decision to bring Dynamic Combat Level into the game:

• to be able to play with friends of different levels
• to stop higher level players from one-shotting everything in lower level areas and removing the fun from those players' story mode
• to make the game challenging even for players who have technically "overleveled" the area in which they are playing
• to eliminate the "not the right level for this region" message from virtually all areas, though there will still be some that will retain their level requirements
• new and different ways to level characters

In addition, MH will be making a global difficulty setting for players who want more of a challenge -- and better rewards -- for playing at a higher, and more dangerous, difficulty.

For our prestige players, if you want to play a slightly harder but not quite Cosmic-level difficulty Story mode, with stops along the way for some harder One-Shots, you will be fully able to. Difficulty will increase not just combat effectiveness (health/damage), but also alter the amount of upgraded enemies, minibosses, affixes on enemies, population densities, and more.
For the endgame players, all game modes will have a Cosmic difficulty option and associated rewards. "Cosmic Story", "Cosmic X-Defense", "Cosmic Age of Ultron", it's all coming with this feature. Raids are the only game mode that may have some of the difficulty options locked when we launch, as we want to spend a bit more time on the individual fight mechanics and the way they grow with difficulty.
​

Dynamic Combat Level is going to be deployed towards the end of June, minus a few key areas for the time being (Midtown and similar), with the Difficulty Setting slated for a possible Fall 2016 release.

MichaelMayhem posted on the forums on 06/09/16 "We never said we were getting rid of raids. Just making a new version that is more suitable for a less raid-centric audience. Similar in concept to a One-Shot.

Players that can't (or don't want to) play for a long period of time with a full 10-man group should be able to experience the story, motion comics, difficulty, mechanics, potential loot upgrades, and epic fights that people think of when they hear "raid". I want to decouple that thinking. You can get all of those things without requiring 10 people. For the few that really like playing with a large group, go for it! But they shouldn't be the only people that get to experience the content we built."

Marvel Heroes adds playable Ultron, extends anniversary event through July 4 holiday

Marvel Heroes’s big patch today was meant to conclude the game’s anniversary event, but Gazillion is extending the festivities through the 4th of July holiday. “Once the clock strikes midnight on July 4th, the anniversary event will conclude, so stock up on cake slices while you can!” says the studio.

“The anniversary event vendor will remain in-game for 1 week after the conclusion of the anniversary event for players to spend any remaining cake slices.” Today’s update also has some content! Ultron joins the game’s roster as its 58th playable toon, along with two new Captain America
costumes — including the female version from an alternate superhero future. The studio is also teasing future content, including the new

Alright, got Ghost Rider to level 60 tonight. Man, I should have come back to the game sooner, to take advantage of the anniversary and the XP boost. I pretty much only went online for a few minutes at a time the last week, to get some in-game currency and bought a bunch of costumes, Team-ups and characters.

 

[Nathan]

Man, leveling the last 5 levels with She-Hulk is such a pain in the ass. She is so ridiculously squishy. I have to run circles when I get surrounded by mobs. Usually I just waste them all before they get the chance to do any considerable harm. Can't remember the last time I died this often in the game. I had a much simpler time leveling Ghost Rider and Magik to 60, the last two days.

 

[Havok83]

I did alot of playing the last 2 months, more so than ever bc of the two main events. Through ES and Gs, I managed to get:

Black Panther
Colossus
Luke Cage
Iron Man
Dr. Doom
Magik
Iceman
Thing
Deadpool

Out of that bunch, Iceman is my fave. He's so good and fun. Luke Cage? Not so much. He was a random hero unlock and levelling him was a chore

I prestiged a few characters but my biggest achievement was cosmic prestige on Jean

I also managed to pass cosmic trial with Jean, Cable and Iceman. My god, I was not aware of the lot drops that happened in those zones. Times that by the events, especially Odin's Bounty and I was able to level up several legendaries and get Omega points (and Imjust shy of 8000 now)

Also grinded for cakes and got enough to buy ~35 or so 3rd anniversary cakes. Have tons of level 80 legendaries now and dont have to worry about Odin marks ever again. Also got a bunch of STASHes to store my new gear.

All in all, I did good, but spent way too much time and money. Taking a break now bc Im wiped out. Need to play other stuff

Oh, Ive also started to use a gamepad and it feels so good. They've made improvements to it to make it feel better. I was intimidated at first bc everyone has different powersets and mapping the keys seem daunting but I got a good working one that fits most characters for me and Im remembering what all the combination presses are for the menus. Giving everyone a separate travel power also helped. The only bad thing is that, the mouse is still necesary for managing inventory as its too slow and imprecise with a gamepad.

Marvel Heroes interview covers the many forms of Ultron


July 7, 2016 Justin Olivetti 2 Comments



Oh sure, Ultron might be this world-domineering robot with an evil bent, but… look at him! He’s just so dang chipper about it that you almost can’t fault him for his ambitions.

You might have heard that Ultron joined Marvel Heroes’ roster as the game’s 58th playable character last week, so perhaps he’s reformed his marauding ways a bit. Marvel.com put up a new interview with Gazillion about Ultron, saying that his uniqueness comes from not being bound to just one body.


“The main things we felt needed to make it in to our game for it to be Ultron was what essentially became the basis for his three skill trees: energy attacks, gravity attacks, and the ability to control minions,”



Gazillion said. “That last one was especially precious to us as we moved forward, because as anyone who has seen Ultron in comics or the Marvel Cinematic Universe knows, Ultron is not one enemy but a host of them.”Read more

Creative Designer and Community Manager Ryan “Ryolnir” Collins announced to the community that he is moving on from Gazillion after four years with the company. “Though it’s hard to move on, I’m nothing but proud of what we’ve accomplished.

I look forward to playing with all of you on test center and beyond as a fan, seeing the new stuff in action!” he wrote.
While he did not say when his last day was, Collins assured the community that they were in good hands. Apparently Ben “TheArtofRawr” Gilbert is returning to Gazillion to handle Collins’ duties after departing the studio back in early 2015.Read more

Marvel Heroes : Creative Designer & Community Manager Ryan Collins Exits

Posted Jul 13, 2016



Marvel Heroes Creative Designer & Community Manager Ryan Collins has announced that he is leaving Gazillion Entertainment and moving on to new pastures,

though where is not yet known. According to the post, Ben "TheArtofRawr" Gilbert is returning to Gazillion to ensure that the design goals planned for the next year are successfully deployed.

Some seriously amazing changes are coming to the game, and I want to thank you all for the insane amounts of feedback and support you’ve given us. We have been pinpointing ways to improve so many of our systems over the last year and we’re planning some exciting stuff. Thanks to your continued support, we’re able to take our time to do these updates the right way.


In addition, there will be other new members of the design staff joining the team in the coming weeks/months. We’re looking at staffing up multiple departments (if you’re looking for work, check out the job board on our website) for some of the new features, systems, and revamps. The new folks will be announced in kind by the team.
With all of this awesome work underway and great people coming onboard to make it happen, it feels like the right time for me to move on. I’ve been with Gazillion for almost 4 years now, and it’s been an amazing experience. I’ve met fantastic colleagues, awesome fans, and been able to do so much, between writing motion comics, attending VO sessions, and helping to shape the game moving forward.
Though it’s hard to move on, I’m nothing but proud of what we’ve accomplished. I look forward to playing with all of you on Test Center and beyond as a fan, seeing the new stuff in action!

PSA: Get a free Marvel Heroes costume and character this weekend

July 22, 2016 26 Comments


Psst! Hey buddy! You want something for nothing? Sure you do. All you have to do is log onto Marvel Heroes this weekend and you’ll get the goods.

The catch? There is no catch, other than the possibility that you’ll be recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D. and have to go on tubular adventures.

This is actually kind of awesome: Marvel Heroes is giving all players a free random hero token and a free random costume, as long as they log in by Sunday night. To sweeten an already incredible deal, the game is sporting a number of bonuses this weekend, including double XP, faster omega leveling, faster cosmic leveling, and omega-level boosts.


So what character and costume did you get? Let us know!

For the most part, MassivelyOP’s MJ just loves going into Marvel Heroes and blasting things with her super powers and reveling in the loot explosions.

However, to fully experience the game, you have to kit out your hero and participate in the higher-level content.
