The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Since I suck at video games, I humbly appeal to the G&T public to advise me on how to proceed. I'm in the "Ancients Hall" in the Mandarin level, Valley of Spirits. The only door out won't open no matter what I do. I have pulled the goddamn rope and even banged a gong. What am I doing wrong?
Here is the door (refer to the little map for context):
I've been stuck here for days, walking around the level in exasperation.
Wii friend code: 8704 3489 1049 8917
Mario Kart DS: 3320 6595 7026 5000
Considered the possibility that it's a glitch? I don't remember much about that level, but you may need to restart your console, or start a whole new game, even.
Actually I think I might be good right now. I went to the previous floor and found a new way to go. Yeah, I was pretty sure it was a glitch. I'm hoping for the best right now. It's possible I just put the game up for a few days and got turned around... and tried to go back the way I came. I'm not sure yet.
Yeah with Nightcrawler out (as a playable character, anyways) I switched over to Deadpool, although I try to alternate between him and Iceman. The teleporting/bodysliding is still very useful in MUA.
I remember in X-Men Legends 2, one of my teammates had a bad habit of getting rogue stuck in ridiculous places. My Nightcrawler came to her rescue numerous times. Too bad Deadpool can't take anyone with him when he slides.
As far as that spot Mandarin's level, I can't recall. Most likely the aforementioned suggestion is correct. Go grab Strange.
This is a bit off topic, but is anyone else, like, sickeningly disappointed by the inclusion of Luke Cage, Black Panther, and Moon Knight? I mean, c'mon, no Hulk? Wtf?

Hulk's license is tied up elsewhere.
I think I got that door to open after killing a bunch of guys in the room or something.

Luke Cage I'm no fan of. But come on, how can you not love Moon Knight? he's a batshit fucking crazy moon-themed Batman.
Besides, without him Iron Nightspider would just be Iron Spider, and that's the name of a Spider-Man costume, not a superhero team.

[spoiler:db90c5da62] THE SHORTCUT (requires Might, Flight and Fire Extinguisher)
|
|
| Find the rope with the blue X on it and use a hero with Might to |
| pull the rope (play the little mini-game). Go through the newly |
| opened door and destroy the enemies on the outer ledge. Fly over |
| to the central platform and ring the gong by firing a power at |
| it. This opens a door in the right wall. Go through and find the |
| braziers to your right marked with blue X's. Put the fires out |
| nearly simultaneously. You'll have about five seconds after ex- |
| tinguishing one brazier to snuff the other one. This opens a door|
| into the final room. Note that, if you go this way, you skip |
| fighting Ultimo and don't get the Strike upgrade near him. |
| (Unless, of course, you backtrack.) |
+
+
THE LONG WAY
|
|
| In the first room, take the first door on your left and go around|
| on the walkway. Then, take the first door on the left and there's|
| another walkway, this time with a mini-boss, Dragonman. Like many|
| of these mini-boss fights, ranged attacks work best as Dragonman |
| mostly uses short-range melee attacks. From the next room, once |
| again go through the first door on the left. This time the walk- |
| way is blocked by Ultimo. He's a lot easier than you may think, |
| Dragonman was actually more difficult. At the far end of the |
| walkway is a Strike point behind a fire pit. Finally, you reach |
| the last room. |

Sounds like where you're at since you mentioned a bell and a rope. I remember that part and not doing it, so I guess I did the second option. Sounds like you already figured it out, though. But I wanted to look it up since I didn't even remember what you were talking about.
This is a bit off topic, but is anyone else, like, sickeningly disappointed by the inclusion of Luke Cage, Black Panther, and Moon Knight? I mean, c'mon, no Hulk? Wtf?
No, it's just you. Those three are awesome and any suggestion otherwise is a lie. A damned lie.
maybe off topic..but is there any real difference between the versions for the different platforms?
I have a Wii, PS2, and 360 and I am stuck on indecision over what version to get. does the Wiimote add anyhing uber-compelling to the gameplay or is it just tacked on?
I'm leaning towards the 360 version..but mostly I know its because I'm a slave to achievements.

Everything I've heard about the Wii version is that it's tacked on and takes a while to get used to controlling the camera, but the core game is still pretty fun. If you have a 360 though I'd reccommend that one, since in addition to the achievements you also get 2 characters the ps2 version doesn't have.

I have the Wii Version, and while it still works well, sometimes the movements take a few tries to work (though you don't actually have to use them for the powers). This doesn't make the game bad, but I'd say the 360 version would be the one to go with since you have both consoles.
Just as a warning to everyone on Mandarin since the topic is here. If you go back and play again with higher level heroes, don't beat him too quickly, or you become locked in one of the balconies.

Without Luke Cage, how the hell am I gonna make the Spider-friends with Spidey, Luke Cage, Human Torch, and Iron Man? Wolverine? Fuck that.
Yeah, that was wacky. I remember saying something like, "Oh, I hope I get something good like a focus upgrade.... Blade... Awww, man."
As far as platforms, I'm playing it on the Wii. I personally like the controls. The motions register more consistently if you slow them down a bit, except for the shake, which should be done quickly.
gah, now I'm stuck too but on the simulator disc mission for Captain America. I only recently discovered you're supposed to go to the consoles next to the missile and get the extra time required to beat Winter Soldier (Until I discovered that, I just assumed that I hadn't leveled ole Cap enough to beat him)
My problem though is 1) not all of the consoles allow you to press X at them and 2) even when I do find a console that allows you to press X, it doesn't always add time.
so I always end up running out of time. GameFaqs recommends using shield bash on him, but I always seem to run out of energy far too quickly...charging it up doesn't seem to help significantly. knocking him down to half his HP is the best i've done so far.
Cap is like..level 25 now and I don't feel like i've gotten much better at finishing this since I first got the simulator disc. Meanwhile, beating the Iron Man simulator was cake.

Only one console is going to let you press X on it at one time. You have to press 3 consoles to reset the bomb and get more time. So basically hit up the first two consoles, then find the third one, beat up Winter Soldier until the timer hits 25-30 seconds, and then press the third button.
Also remember to block a lot, it helps in the 1vs1 simulator boss fights.

I was more bothered by the fact that they didn't have Iron Fist.
I mean they had Elektra over Iron Fist. Who the fuck cares about Elektra? When was the last time Elektra was interesting? When Miller was writing her and was still sane?

It is a goddamned crime that Luke Cage and Iron Fist aren't both in this game. They should have made him an alt costume for Daredevil at the very least.
You know that part where you have to chase one of the God swords through a bunch of portals?
When I finally get to the sword, the game doesn't load me back to the great hall. I'm just stuck in the room where I grabbed the sword with no way out.
Also, I've redone this level maybe 10 or so times, sometimes it lets me out. So I finish collecting the swords, but after I'm done and the Armor pops out of the Ice, I try to chase Loki through the portal but nothing loads and the Armor disappears and I'm stuck again with nowhere to go.
I thought this problem was from the disc, but I traded in my original disc and got a new one and I'm still having the same problem. Anyone else have this problem with this game, or is it just me?

If you're on PC, Iron Fist can be modded into the PC version, along with a tonne of other characters that these guyscooked up.

That could well be the case, maybe I just missed him on the last floor.

Interesting, I haven't even tried Deadpool yet. That's what I love about this game.

And I used Deadpool's teleport to cheat as much as humanly possible in the game.
Luke Cage I'm no fan of. But come on, how can you not love Moon Knight? he's a batshit fucking crazy moon-themed Batman.

Read Alias and Pulse, Bendis will make you love him.
I'm way more disappointed in the inclusion of Elektra and Blade, yawn.
All 3 of the characters you mentioned are awesome.
Makes no fucking sense.
And his explosive spike move was pretty fun.
Elektra was a useless character.

Got to the sword room and remembered why I haven't beaten it yet.
...Gah
