    They say early September on the forums. Magneto, Juggernaut and Venom are coming soon as well, according to the new Villains pack they're selling too.

    So I haven't played this game since it originally came out, but including Rogue interests me enough that I might come back. If I pre-ordered how long are they talking before she is released?

    Somewhere between a bit over a week and a month at the outside.

    That month is super safe, I'd actually expect to see her within two weeks or so.

    Edit: Double checking this I found this under "Playable Eventually":
    HOWARD THE DUCK
    Voice is recorded. Playable at some point.

    I just started playing again, made a new account so I wouldn't have to look at the loading screens of junk heroes I was given (before splinters). Not even level 30 and I have an entire row of themed event currencies. They really want people to buy more stash tabs! It would be really nice if each hero's inventory was unique at least.

    By the way- is there an actual group trying the raid out? I'm interested but as my online time tends to be late I tend to miss these things.

    Did I hear something about Jean Gray getting her review soonish? I only recently came back and I'm still learning all this stuff.

    Also, what should I do with Omega points? I assume they're account-wide to earn, but character-specific to spend?

    Yes, Jean Gray gets her review next.

    More grind. Account wide to earn but spend that amount for each character individually. Retcon to change for a character.

    So if you have 100 Omega points then each character gets to spend 100 Omega points as they choose.

    So far it seems that means they take Spin Tech 10/10 then look around for other options.

    That's a really nice costume, but it's definitely missing a sash to make it perfect.

    I wonder what the chances are of a Thunderbolts pack now that they are doing villains too.

    Also I will acquire Howard the Duck. Team-Up or Hero, I don't care. He will be mine.

    Howard The Duck, in any form, is up there with the rumored Pizza Dog pet as something I will instantly purchase or acquire the moment it becomes available.

    I got Cyclops leveled from 45 to 50 and Gambit from 1 to 20. Today was a good day. :)

    I saw a werewolf drinkin' a pina colada at Trader Vic's.
    And his hair was perfect.

    King Bacon (gameplay designer):
    Do you like crit stats?

    Well I do so I decided to put them in the Character Stats page. You will be able to view the following crit stats:
    • Critical Melee Rating
    • Critical Ranged Rating
    • Critical Physical Rating
    • Critical Energy Rating
    • Critical Mental Rating
    • Critical Area Rating.

    Text is not finalized and I'm not sure which upcoming patch this will be in (definitely not this week's patch).

    Yea, I have like 2000 something conditional Damage Rating on Marvel which really skews things.

    What they need to do is have these stats pop ups for each power be available but I doubt we'll ever get that.

    right now, critical area, critical energy, etc. do not actually show on your character sheet. Just a bit more information for the player, especially those who may not know that and think they are missing stats.

    Of course, it doesn't really help you know what crit rating your ranged area mental attack has, but it's a start at least.

    I'd rather see them make a thing for all possible combinations, and then hide the ones that don't make sense for your character, like hiding physical and mental for Silver Surfer while showing ranged energy, ranged area energy, etc.

    Or just make it so hovering over the skill itself gives you the pertinent data. Which shouldn't be hard, since they already have them all tagged and everything!

    If they make a dog team up, there is only one right answer who he should be, comrade

    Cosmo as a team up, Pizza dog as a pet.
    Best of both worlds.

    Oh, new event? Maybe I'll actually not loathe this one.

    Still those last two days sound like hardcore grind time.

    XDefense is the filthiest hive of villainy and scum known to man, its like there a douche bag handbook that says you can only arrive with 1 item slot free and you have to pick up and sell EVERYTHING, so as soon as something drops grab it and run to the vendor immediately. All this running of course will make you tired so be sure to take frequent breaks and just afk a few every other round, or hell just wait to even start until round 8, and if you die be sure to blame the other people in xdef for not healing you or doing their fair share of damage.

    I wish I could tag people I ignore in there as the POS they are so I can just abandon matches I get with them or just prevent me from ever autojoining with an ignored player. Xdef dailies are the worst.

    I really hate the all or nothing nature of the Shared Quest. Basically it is completely beyond your control and you have to hope you get matched with some folks who can get to wave 10 to make any progress. Bonus: It will take you like 15 minutes to find out if you get anything! It's a bit like the Dora time sink thing. I know why they don't want low rounds to give out defender medals, because people would annihilate the first couple waves then immediately quit and restart, but damn if this doesn't suck.

    Not saying I disagree, but with all the stupid currency types, runes, relics and so forth. It can be a bit understandable to be a bit short on inventory space in this game.

    Those should really be put in your stash the moment you get back from the previous escapade.

    I run with only 10 slots free in my inventory but i dont pick up everything and only hit the stash once every 3 or 4 xdef runs (usually after an event in the area of the stash so i dont leave the rest of the people hanging). If you are compelled to pick up every blue or higher item because it might have the stats you are looking to upgrade you should really plan accordingly so as not to be a detriment to everyone else attending.


    Its just common courtesy to other people who are there doing their best, I may grumble internally about the the lvl x1 x2 who might be a tad low for an xdef, or the guys who are near useless getting annihilated before rounds of double digits, or the heroes who arent particularly good at xdef. I understand those people aren't responsible that their favorite hero doesnt have optimal or even good builds to be in xdef, but the people who would rather climb on the collective back of everyone else in there, who cant give 20 minutes of effort who dont even try,.... fuck those guys.

    This is just bitterness talking here but they seem to be the same ones collecting a unique or uniques at the end of the match. It irks me that I'm helping those guys.

    Meh. i'll still play her. It's not the size of the army that matters to me, it's the fact that I'm taking down Magneto and Doctor doom by throwing squirrels at them. Hell, with the smaller size and easier ramp up, I might even give squirrel presents a try.
