For its faults, Avengers Academy does play really fair. If you unlock an item, any task you have ongoing will have the item added to its rewards.

Iron Widow has an action where she Solid Snakes it around, so that alone is worth it.

Which of these games has Carol Danvers and is therefore the best?

She's in Future Fight, Conquest of Champions and Puzzle Quest. She's mentioned in dialog on Academy a lot though, so she'll probably be introduced in the future.

How long do you have to hold your finger on someone? And do you do it in the man quad screen or in the action select one?

It's a hard press in the main screen and it only takes a second.

Yea, not working for me. Maybe because I've spent real money on the game.

Oh Spider-Man is only 1k crystals in AA because he's early access, so lets hope they have a Spiderverse event and give us Miles, Gwen, Cindy, and hopefully Miguel and Ben.

Also Shield Agents seem to need 2x the battle plans to train now.

It's annoying that outside of Nebula, all the Guardians are locked in whatever level you had them at when the event ended, you cannot upgrade them with gold, only the event currency. Nebula you can upgrade with gold, only 50k. Though I understood it was going to happen, it's still annoying to go straight from it to the CW event because I haven't even started the Maria Hill questline.

Though the update did enable you gain levels beyond 29.

Yeah, don't build the 3rd things for Iron Man or Cap until Black Panther is leveled up. Those things that upgrade the Embassy drop from level 4 Hydra goons, which are also items needed to unlock Crossbones. But when you build those two buildings, Crossbones unlocks but you only have 7 days to get him, and getting him requires killing level 4 Hydra goons, which really means you need level 4 bots and recruits, which you can't get until Panther is level 3. I think I may have screwed myself by getting too far ahead, and the 2 hours it takes to build these stupid robots is just dragging me down hard...

I haven't gotten that far, but last time there was a counter to getting a character it was just for a bonus, not the character. I remember panicing during the Hulk event about that, but still got Red Hulk even though his quest timer went down.

Though they keep trying new stuff with each event, just as long as they don't go the direction Family Guy does.

Hah sif being 15bux. But I like how one of things you need to collect for the Capbuster are Apple Pies.

I know this isn't about a mobile game, but I just bought Lego Avengers, and i can't figure out at what point the game will let you select characters in free roam.

A wiki page says both he and Sif were 495.

I must have had some crystals beforehand then. I really cannot get any interest in getting Crossbones, so I've been doing the training and arm wrestling, but i've been using the other dropped items and vibranium to upgrade the embassy and Wonderman.

Red Skulls guards regenerate too fast, so I could only get to streak 4 before he reset, and that was spending crystals to complete some guys to beat him up. I've resigned to not being able to get Bucky, but I got everyone else, so it's not so bad. I've also maxed out BP and Agent 13 in levels, so not so bad.

Hoping they'll lay off events for a bit so I have time to unlock Maria Hill.

I feel like Avengers Academy is a game where you need to set alarms to remind you to go back in so you don't miss anything.

Yea, I got all the boxes I could, which nabbed me a lot of stuff which was great. And yes, it's complete BS that RS guards regenerate so fast, Vyper's took like 12 hours to come back. Though I cannot get Bucky's bike because I haven't been able to level my troops to level 10 to get the items I need.

Ronan's cell is dropping some kind of token now, but I have no idea what it does.

Oh crap, you're right. I never bothered to look at how much it would cost to skip the sleeping panther. Though now I'm stuck with 14 more cap cards to get, and only at streak 3 with Red Skull.

2 days ago I had 10 cap cards, and today, I have 11 cap cards.

I wonder if Captain Britain will look like current, Excalibur Captain Britain, or classic, Lannister Captain Britain. I have been playing Lego Avengers and they have the old school outfit on him, because the one everyone actually knows is too tied into an excellent but forgotten X-men title from the 80s and 90s. Actually the fact the X Mansion is replaced by the Avengers facility between Lego Marvel and Lego Avengers is pretty telling.

I was just about to post that. Also, a friend of mine who is far ahead of me, but started nearly 3 weeks after I did, told me his secret is never bother with missions that don't drop anything other than money; cancel quests until you get at least a pym particle or a textbook.

I'm curious what this big summer event will be, I just hope they won't add more waifus to the premium character slots.

The Eng-ger-Land event is up. Brian is a premium character, and of course, he's wearing his old school Marvel UK costume, because the costume that people actually know is tainted by too much exposure to X-men.

God this is so loving stupid. I hope Pearlmutter has a stroke or something.

I wasn't about to beat BK at all for the first few days, he'd always knock out my party right away, but suddenly, his two attacks in a row stopped happening constantly. So i'm only 2 victories away, so there's a chance. Considering I've been sleeping like garbage because of the calcification of ligament in my shoulder right now, so I can fight every 3 hours.

I don't have Union Jack so that's why I had so much trouble beating BK.

Hoping the big Summer event is a A-force Event, though it will probably be Inhumans.

It's really annoying because I bought spider-woman for 200 shards during the beta (it was a beta only sale) and now i'm screwed for getting shards forever for free.

Man I'd pay real money for Spider-ham if I didn't think Gwen will also be a premium character later on. I've just invited Spider-man, he's going to need 2099 oz tokens but its probably better to unlock all the buildings first.

Yea, I'm only going to buy Gwen, and that's only if shes a premium character. The only decoration I got was the wrestling one and they're already out of the store.

Okay, Spider-Man is using a drone to water ski, that's kind of awesome.

And to the Leader "Where did you come from?" and the leader replies "the door was open".

It looks like you need to buy the chests to upgrade Parker, becuase those are the only place I can find the Spider-Man tokens dropping.

So I guess as long as you can beat the lizard 3 times you get Felicia.

Does anyone know if the Lizard is going to be still around when part 2 ends? I could see a new enemy in chapter 2, but i wouldn't put it past them to limit it to the current part.

And yes, you had until part 2 ends to defeat Lizard 7 times. Another hour and i could have beaten him the 7th time.

Anyways, looks like Mary Jane is going to be Iron Spider.

On the upside, Venom doesn't reset to Streak 1 when time runs out, he just heals up. On the downside, it costs 150 shards instead of 100 to extend the time limit.

Yea, that was good news. I did manage to get the symbiot Widow costume, Which in theory should make it easier, but hahaha, no.
