So I've narrowed it down to Luke Cage, Psylocke, and either War Machine or Punisher. I've been trying to find a good ranged physical hero that isn't loving Deadpile of poo poo. I've tried both on the teat center, but neither one really grabbed me. I thought War Machine was clunky (mostly because I didn't know wtf I was doing) and Punisher's reload mechanic seems weird, but something you'd get used to while leveling. Any thoughts on either of them?

Right now my heart says Psylocke, my fists (and ICR) say LUKE cannot CAGE my RAGE, and my mom is telling me War Machine. They say you should always listen to your mother, they also say you should always follow your heart. I have another day or 2 until I have enough splinters (50 more to go). So take your time responding. I may go to the oforums and ask those friendly, helpful people there (and make HoldMyOwn hate me even more for posting so much there :( )

out of those 4 i would pick luke cage, but he is melee. between warm machine and franklin castle i would pick warm machine. both are pretty boring though. warm machine's ranged spender is real bad, and his flaemthrower build is dumb. franklin castle aka the punish man was better before his rework and i havent played him much after it

So what you're saying is to follow my heart.

Basically if she had a gun that shot squirrels instead of making them appear from thin air I'd play her a lot more. She's great and fun and all, and I love her, but she really needs a cannon, or something, to shoot squirrels from.

Deadpool is a character that should not exist. I hate him, he is an unfunny, overrated, hot pile of poo poo. I would very much rather play Hawkeye over Deadpool any day. But I wanted to be a tough ranged gunner, not some guy in purple pajamas.

I've been traumatized all day since 4 AM this morning from the tragic event that happened in Florida. Come to find out, there was another attack planned in LA for pride. Anyway you should be ashamed.

Think of those poor gays that were killed in Florida. My gay brothers and sisters lose their lives or are targeted just for loving who they love and you all have the audicity to post homophobic thoughts in gay supporting threads? Do you not have any kindness or sympathy for anyone other than yourself?

Somehow people think gays are this protected class, but we aren't. We're targets and there are many people in the US even that hate us, secretly or openly online or whatever

I'm sad that people that mock gay pride and my threads to celebrate it in this game. I can't believe how I've been treated on this forum just for having a passion for my identity. I couldn't even open the game and play all day I've been caught up thinking about the tragic events, and I'm hurt. There are likely to be more attacks and I fear for more of my gay brothers and sisters. Please, can you all be supportive the LGBT community during these tragic events? We're targets there are many people out to hurt us


I am sorta upset that Fenixion didn't let that thread ride for a while. People get shot and what does Unique do?post about his political agenda. Truly a unique snowflake

How can we be so sympatico with our Logan-love but so far apart on the issue of Wade-worship? Actually, when I started this game I didn't even know Deadpool had turned into Mr. 4th-wall-breaking-funnyman in the comics. He had just been some nobody assassin badguy in the few issues of early X-Force I read as a teen. The wackiness doesn't bother me and I usually play with sound off anyway. What annoys me is the players that gravitate to Deadpool are the ADD motherfuckers who sit in hubs just teleporting in place because they can't stop clicking their mouse button for two seconds when an enemy isn't in front of them.

It's like Highlander, there can only be one Canadian. For me it's the beer drinking, hell raising James "Logan" Howlett. Now if Alpha Flight were in the game, then it would be a different story...

Daniel Way's run wasn't even that crazy compared to what I was expecting and pretty much all of his significant comics appearances have a huge amount of tragedy in them since he's had a pretty horrendous life, even by comics standards. The hyperactive Deadpool seems to have come from his game appearances (particularly his solo game, MvC3 and Marvel Heroes), though there certainly is plenty of wacky Deadpool merch out there.

I got Gambit from one of those Limbo scrolls, and while at this point I'm happy to get a non-dupe from random hero boxes, I gotta say he feels pretty underwhelming. I used his ranged build and it felt super meh, just all around low impact and boring. I guess maybe his staff moveset might be more fun, but "guy what throws playing cards" is like 90% of his character. Also, his movement powers are squirrel guirrel tier.

I like Mr. F a lot, but most people really don't so maybe don't take my word for it. Top tier sig tho

He has a unique cooldown reduction mechanic on top of a cooldown reset button and both work on his signature, uses most of his own uniques and doesn't lay down a bleed so he's easy to gear out, good ttk and tte

Hey all,

Sorry for the late update, woke up sick this morning so have been fighting it off with medicine and some extra sleep. I think it's mostly working since I feel better than I did when I woke up!

A relatively quiet weekend (in a good way) given the amount of bug fixes we shipped last week, so this week we're focused on Ultron and the other new content in next week's release. We hope to have Ultron on Test Center this week - he is getting some changes based on feedback and has yet to be fully approved.

In addition to Ultron, a new Terminal and some other new goodies, we're really looking forward to having you guys test what we call "Dynamic Combat Level". @MichaelMayhem will be posting on that very very soon so you can learn all about it.

In terms of schedule, the only patches you should expect are for Test Center - no production publish planned this week.

Have a great week!

Hopefully dynamic combat scaling is either sidekick system or raids scaling to anywhere from 5-10 people. Either would be great
