Howdy friends. Haven't played in close to two years now. To be fair I tried installing this game 3 times in the past year and I would get an odd bug that I couldn't run it. Tried it again today and it went through. Lot of changes, don't even know what I'm doing but I can tell I had a lot of boosts running when I last played. Feels weird being a noob when I've dropped nearly a grand in this game and God knows how many hours.

"That is still our goal, but its more realistically looking like probably October at the earliest. As I've said before, we're running 2 shipping versions of the game now. The console version and the PC version. As many of you know, there are vast differences between the two. With the omega patch, we want to bring them together, however there is a lot of work that needs to be done to ensure that works smoothly. Our current plan is for a patch next week for Defenders related content(that is on TC right now) and then the next patch will be the Omega patch when it is ready. Expect some significant TC time for this. In between these 2 patches, we don't have any releases planned on PC so we can focus on the omega patch.

The content of the omega patch is coming along really well. Omega items are being built at a good clip, Omega difficulty is entering its first round of testing very soon. Omega items look a bit different than what we showed in the original dev blog (almost a year ago) as you would imagine. The team is hard at work on them right now and cant wait for you all to see them. This is the first new item system in over 2 years I haven't been involved in, so it has been interesting to see what the team is doing!

Apocalypse content is coming along spectacularly. This is also planned to release with the Omega patch. All of the different disciplines involved have really put together some really special stuff. It has been in departmental playtest territory for a few weeks now. You've seen the Magik costume, I cant wait for you to see the other 3. These 4 costumes will also be the first 4 costumes we launch with our new tech that adds powers from costumes. Each of the 4 costumes will get 1 power that is a player version of their main boss power from the playable content. This is a feature we're really excited about. Along with these 4, there will be VU's for Colossus AoA and Jean AoA shipping at the same time.

Spider-woman and Unworthy Thor(official name) development continues on, both are shaping up very well. We did our first design wide playtest with Spider-Woman last week and got some great feedback for the designer in charge of her. No ETA on release to share yet.

I know this is probably more brief than many would like, but I had a few moments this morning so I thought I'd give what info I can right now. We appreciate the support and patience, and look forward to you all getting your hands on all the new stuff coming!"

still lol every time they refer to costumes as content

The new Magik costume is pretty interesting since it looks like an original design from Gaz so I guess they can do that now.



Really not a fan of costumes giving powers though.

Doing their own horsemen makes sense. Most of the horsemen over the years aren't in the game. They could mix teams and do like Wolverine, Psylocke, Hulk and Gambit but 3 of those were Death.

What? Is there even a Boss Magik in the game that I don't remember? Or am I reading this wrong?

Because either the power is bad and therefore pointless or it's good and the costume is basically pay to win since they can't realistically be earned ingame.

i hadn't seen this was the plan.

i really do find there just to be so many unnecessary layers of unnecessary bullshit in the pc version. i'm really hoping the things that get brought over to ps4 are holo sim, x defense, maybe the other patrols and the one shots. scrap pretty much everything else.

then the degree to which they got lazy with the omega system will pmuch decide the quality of the game.

Yeah but I assumed they were people who hadn't logged in for a long while, which was 99% anyway. I assumed that. Was it some rogue officer who just kicked almost all non-officers, or is it just that everyone who ever bothered playing this game after the first 3 years was invariably an officer anyway.

I'm trying this game out for the first time tonight, got a quick q so i dont accidentally waste my time. If i say get angela up to level 9 and then i try ghost rider and end up liking him and keep going, if i unlock angela later will she still be at level 9? In other words, is it actually worth the time checking out characters past the prologue, or will i have to re-level them up all over again anyways?

Can't stress enough that level 10 doesn't really show off much, and also you should just pick the hero that's your favorite because it becomes increasingly harder to get a specific hero later on, but still easy to get "any" hero.
