That actually is a very solid team. I think people get deterred away from Black Cat because she is very hard to farm.

This sale should help.

Yeah, it's great. Pretty much made me decide to go for Silk instead of Gwen. Only annoying thing is that they're all Speed.

This will not happen. I'm pretty sure they are not allowed to have x-men or F4 related things in the game.

Marvel Heroes is probably the last game they allowed to do Xmen and F4 stuff, everything else is going to end up being without for a long time. Even Avengers Alliance 2, a followup to a game based around a lot of Xmen and Doctor Doom stuff, is going without any mutants or F4 characters. Never gonna happen in here.

At least there's a lot of other stuff to pull from these days

Disney desperately wants full or part control of the movie rights for marvel characters it does not have. That is F4 and xmen related characters. So one way they are doing this is excluding them from certain products to remove them from the public awareness

Spidey is in due to them have partial movie rights now.

At least this is the conspiracy theory that is floating around. It is probably right too.

Not really. So majority of us here are from that game and still play time to time (I'm doing my next Super Tournament actually, have 80+ signed up) but what happened is Marvel Heroes promoted the Fantastic Four movie recently...

...and Marvel was not happy about that. Anyway, game is still alive and kicking and made lots of great changes. It just moves at a slower pace than this for content and releases. If you like this, you'll like that and vice versa. The GOON community is excellent there.

I don't think the game will shut down yet (contract Is until March 2019) but it's the last bastion for Xmens.

And really, they didn't even directly promote the film. They merely held a sale at the time of its release covering all the F4 characters, yet Marvel flipped their lid anyway. poo poo's weird.

What about Contest of Champions? They seem to have no problem using X-Men/mutants. They're just not featured in the ads.

I'm not sure on that one. The other stuff (Marvel Heroes, Puzzle Quest) predate the no-mutants-or-f4 mandates. It's possible CoC was just in development for a long time and predates it too?

What was the initial release date of CoC? I feel like it's only the last year or so they've been dicks about X-Men/FF poo poo. Disney Infinity is the first Marvel product I remember with a glaring lack of those characters and that is a bit over a year old I think.

It was released in 2014. I can't seem to find when it was in development. MH signed their contract in 2009.

Dec 11, 2014 (I thought it was newer). So that would make sense if the mandate was more of a 2015 thing.

How do shame levels work anyway? I'm level 1 due to the Tony Stark package I bought ten days ago, but every time I start it says "VIP Package for only $34.95" so... is that the amount I need to spend to get to VIP 2?

The levels are based off what you've spent in total, but I don't know what the packages are about. Since hitting 5 the game started trying to push a $78 package on me. Maybe they figure if you're willing to spend up to X amount for your vip level you'll also be willing to throw down a related amount on a package

Get VIP3 so you can have health regen when you switch heroes out.
