Came back from the sin city and watched ultron preview. He has the most underwhelming ult by any heroes so far, even worse than ones that just buff themselves.

Hawkeye owns. I bought him today and I'm having a ton of fun. I think Hawkeye might replace Wolverine as my favorite, or at least tie for that spot.

I'm really starting to doubt any and all hero suggestions - oh get Doom he is good and fun, sucks. Oh Wolverine is bad, actually fun.

Ultron needs an ult where four Harry Pyms carry him around while he slouches on his Ultron Throne and German techno music blares.

They really need to have a character by character mute option. And one for the side kicks to. loving falcon and silver surfer both need a nice glass of shut the gently caress up. But seriously falcon if you tell me your not a side kick your a avenger 1 more loving time you may never hit 60. There are some really good voice work and I still want to hear those.

Another new sub-3 ttk, Rachet Racon:

Prinn is a madman devoting his entire life to the racon and learning the minutest details about being the absolute best racon you can. Weaving that quickly surprises me. I would've thought it was a dps loss. I think multiple instances of BFG end up ticking on the target. He also ditches Gravity Mine and only uses the Sam Wilson team-up for vulnerability. There's a couple heroes I should try that on.

Makes me excited to buy Rocky. I've been wanting him for some time (almost used my free ticket on him) but I didn't like his default costume. I got the Movie one from a drop and well now I just need some Gs. I hoping for a 50% sale so I can go nuts. Gonna buy Big Pun (or Luke Cage), Mr. F, Invisible Mom, and Rocket.

Also, I'm looking for some newish players (or maybe unlucky), I have a gift to give away. It's pretty cool and thought a new supergroup team member could make use of it. I was gonna give it to Lemon Cupcake, but wasn't sure if they were new or not and they weren't on last night. Seems like they are new cause it sounded like they just passed their first Cosmic Trial. I thought this might be an appropriate gift.

This all depends on what play style you like. Of the 20+ heroes I've got to 60, I found Squirrel Girl to be pretty damned fun. Once you get used to the mechanics, Blade can be a lot of fun too. Thus is my opinion.

Magik, Doom, Surfer all get high marks round these parts. Rouge has 600 builds to suit any style, all broken. Black Cat is a good and fun newer character with an interesting mechanic. You could get 200 shard characters to play around with a few - like switch if you don't have her, she is strong ranged magic explosions. Deadpool is easy mode, as said above.

I guess it would help if you post who you have, or who you are considering.

I'm going to requote my :FUN: heroes list from the end of last thread

Most fun heroes are thing, juggernaut, nudemans, gobbo (can get spooky playing him tho), squirrel girl (if you play with sound on) and iron fist (really just while sigging or ulting).

'fun' is playing whatever you feel like and having a good time

'FUN' is playing whichever hero will get you a mane in optimal time and/or place top 1% on DR tournaments.

The best part is that the O forums will argue vehemently that doing anything to make the looting experience less objectively lovely is ~ruining the game~ and ~catering to casuals~ and ~enabling botting~

You can play everyone to lvl 10 without buying. Play a whole bunch and see who you like.

Cyclops is a good starter. He rocks out on offense, and at 50 gives all subsequent heroes +10% xp.

Happy Monday all,

Over the weekend we had quite a few new features and things to test in Test Center, so if you had the oppurtunity to test and give feedback, thank you! The team is now diving into all of your feedback and reports for Ultron, Dynamic Combat Level, Times Square, and everything else that spent time in TC.

We'll have updates throughout the week on the timing of the upcoming release, primarily depending on how iteration on all of these features goes.

Not a very exciting update, but if you haven't had time with Test Center this weekend, head over there and let us know what you think about everything!

Have a great week!

While this is true in the abstract, it's important to remember that it is not OK to like Hawkeye whether he's optimal or not.

Also, Blade is good now? I thought he was from the dumpster fire period of design. It's so hard to keep up with this garbage, especially when you don't play it.

He is the easiest dude to level, reminds me of original Slord because he rains grenades and shootmans
