In like 10 years or whatever when the game eventually shuts off for good (do NOT quote this and make a joke about it dying in a year or w/e) they should do a big secret wars event that ends with a cutscene of the earth crashing into a parallel earth a la the last deadpool issue.

My favorite part is how in interviews they keep saying they're not rebooting the universe, meanwhile they're killing everyone and making sure that any characters in movie properties they don't control are shuttled off to nowheresville

Actually, it's just the universes with Earths in them. The rest were 'unmoored' from the multiverse during the prelude to Infinity War. So since the game still exists, canonically it cannot be taking place on Earth.
If you play it then you are tacitly agreeing to no Earths and therefore a traitor and terrorist. Uninstall immediately or turn yourself in to the authorities as a war criminal!

Yeah they've done stuff like this on a smaller scale before I guess, I'll be suprised if much changes outside of some dudes from the Ultimate side of things being ported over and maybe people like Cable having their origins cleaned up. In the mean time we get crazy stories they couldn't tell if there was continuity to worry about. We already know that some books aren't even addressing the event, just picking up where they left off after.

Like, keep in mind that at one point Iron Man was revealed to have always been an agent of Kang the Conqueror, killed off, replaced with teenage Tony from Counter Earth, re aged, and that's the Iron Man we have today. Didn't really change anything about the character.

They had the same lines during Heroes Reborn, which was even more explicitly a reboot - but one that ultimately ended in everything going back to normal.

It's cute how they think that anything that happens in comics is going to affect the movies.

the comics and the movies need to directly reflect one another, which is why the Avengers in the movies are going to be Captain America, Black Widow, War Machine, Scarlet Witch, Falcon, and Vision while in the comic books it's going to be Ms Marvel, Nova, Spider-Man, Captain America (falcon), Thor (a lady), Vision, and Iron Man (someone). to make sure the teams are identical to one another. for brand synergy.

He's got bugs and he's clunky until you really get him down. To me he's a hell of a lot of fun regardless. Blow up your pet on bosses, it's like a second sig. During one of my prestiges I didn't even notice I hadn't spent omega points until the high 50's so I'm confident of the performance of my leveling spec without 7500 omega points. Use comeuppance/high-density slam to clear trash when you run low on solar energy and reset the cooldown with density shift.

if there were going to be some baby tuning changes with the doom patch, what would be some big (and easy) changes that would shore up some of the guys that aren't slated to be fixed anytime soon?

I'm thinking stuff like durations on dots all being 6 seconds minimum (rip 3-5 second dots), some specific powers that have fallen behind (x-slash, photonic wave, predator's frenzy, enthrall) and other little things that if a quick tuning pass was made, would be immensely beneficial if the QoL isn't coming for months.

It would be cool if they did another global tuning pass like they did during december 2013, that one actually helped a bit if I recall correctly.

A lot harder now with more heroes though.

it really wouldn't be a bad idea to do this at the end of the year, assuming they've finished everyone's 52 rework and given QOL to the guys that really need them. once they have everyone playing in an interesting and fun way, tune some numbers.

So is setting up my Winter Soldier to focus on his first three firepower skills for shitloads of little AoE hits and underslung grenade/knife throw for AoE damage over time a way to go? Plus my signature, naturally. I like him a lot but I'm dying a lot in one-shots now that I'm close to 60, though I think some of that is levelling up faster than I'm getting decent gear.
