As a reminder: If for some reason you wanted to play the Avengers game do it now as the game will essentially be shut down on September 30th, 2023. The story campaign was supposedly decent and you could safely ignore the DLCs. Most of the really horrible crap is in the post game where you are expected to grind forever because of "Live Service" reasons. I think all of the cosmetics are being given away for free as well.

The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

Three seconds of half assed googling showed me that David Brevik hasn't announced that he's working on anything since his 2019 game so I think its clear that the top secret Marvel Heroes 2 will be released this spring. Early access May 29th. Preorder now for a spiderman with a plastic bag over his head uniform.

The dozens and dozens of Star Wars Galaxies private servers that exist would prove that wrong. The most likely situation is that since nobody has or is willing to share the server code, it would have to be re-engingeered based just on the client side data and it just doesn't seem that there's another out there that has the talent, passion, and time, to do that.

The game was so bare metal I would be surprised if the server could even be restarted let alone setup on another computer.

Yup. They also leaked the source code, basically as an F-U to the way NCSoft handled everything.

Though to be honest, if Brevik had had the source, you can bet your rear end he would have leaked it.

They can't replicate it because the server was probably built with vacuum tubes, punchcards and steampunk-esque giant metal levers.

Believe me, if it still existed in any format I'd already be playing there. At least Doomsaw and Ryolnir like my posts asking to bring it back.

Although we assumed it was a series of levers, the actual server involved pressing a pair of buttons a specific number of times in order to make things happen.

edit: should be Marvel Heroes not Champions, but whatever.

Good evening fellow kings and queens. Da crew is coming back together to play D4. ICR will be playing and he did install the game. Praise the sun.



Diablo Immortal 4. You can fight spooky skeletons, ghosts, ghoulies, gobs and hobs, large bats, frankensteins, zombies, wet zombies, burning zombies, frightening tree (non-animate), and most importantly, you don’t have to do it with the people in the official thread.



Come hang out with the Marble Hebrons on the discord to find games. Honestly it’s going to be annoyingly busy to start off and we’re already seeing a bunch of old names popping back up for the launch, it owns. Gain 20lbs eating KFC for cosmetics. Left click until you get the Good Chemicals. Feel that poo poo squirt across your forebrain, together 🤝

mpegs doesn’t stand for Marvelicious Pro Elite Gaming Society, ICR was trying to write “mpreg” but he can’t spell
