Marvel Heroes 2016 |OT3| Highway to the Danger Room

I'm hoping to be able to play on the same account on both console and PC. I'd love to play this on my ps4, too. But no way am I starting over.

I wouldn't bank on it happening, but the Warframe team offered an account swap when the patch versions lined up on PS4. There is no cross platform play, but you could make your PC account a PS4 account instead.

You could only do it for like two weeks though until the next PC patch came (and now PS4 is always weeks behind).
 
I could see an account swap or copy. It's happened with a number of games already, so it isn't exactly exotic territory.

I don't think Gaz can handle it without literally exploding their offices though.

I remember that. But I don't think I would do that either. Unless they find a way to circumvent the certification process it won't be possible for cross playground play.
 
Undertale hype from all the GOTYs starting to get to me

but only 20% off ;_;
 
All the hype killed that game for me.

The music is the only thing that has me still interested.
 
I'm not really sure this is a bug or something but it's annoying that sometimes with Blade when you use your serum while attack it doesn't take effect yet the cooldown happens.
 
The Breviks have commented on a theoretical console port before.
They won't officially confirm that a console version is coming to begin with. However, it's fairly obvious that it's in the work in some capicity. It sounds to me that their plan is to figure out a workable controller scheme and port it over with cross-play functionality and accounts being the same between both (like how players can jump from PS4 to PC and back in FF14).

Chater - "Mr. Brevik, when is Marvel Heroes coming to PS4?"
Mr. Brevik - *Chuckles* "We haven't announced anything yet. It is something that we're looking into. That's all I'm going to say. I get asked this question often. *Chuckles* Lots of people want *changes subject*."
For those worrying about if their account would carry over to a hypothetical console version:

Chater - "I would only play on consoles if account transferred. Not paying hundreds of dollars again."
Ms. Brevik - "Yes, I totally agree. My hope, my DREEEEEEEAM, is that you can play on console and PC together. So it's, everybody is playing on the same servers."
Mr. Brevik - "The great, golden dream."
A year later we are just getting controller support, so I'd venture to guess we may see a console port in 2016.
 
Tonight I traded a high roll, blessed Mental Headband for a Sabretooth Mane. The guy advertised in the trade channel and specifically said "not a troll". He was also a Cosmic Prestige Iceman, so Im sure he was a veteran who knew the trade market reasonably well. I guess he was just super desperate for that Headband.
Now I have a Mane, i'll likely chuck it on Wolvie and level him up again.

One time on their stream they were talking about the future of Diablo. I mentioned that Diablo 3 was doing amazingly well on consoles, so Diablo 4 will be there for sure (this was probably before Overwatch console announcement). David wanted confirmation on that, he thought it didn't do too well.
 
Guys, who's the hardest character you passed cosmic trial with?

I'm dreading doing it on my NC and Psylocke, especially since I can't pass it with Doom or Wanda yet
 
I haven't done it with many of heroes, but for me it was Iron Man (that was a while ago and the first hero I did it with). I didn't have an invul core on him and just about 1k omegas... always got trashed when using channeled abilities (especially because I build him with Unibeam in mind).

But then I geared him a bit more defensively and added a point in Coolant Blast, the invul core and it was a breeze.

So far I've done it with: Captain Marvel, Spidey, Thor, Iron Man, Juggernaut, Loki, Doom, Cap, Wanda and Vision. Most of the rest don't even have full uniques on them so I haven't tried.
 
Cosmic Midtown worth it for the drops over green Midtown?

I have an invul core on doom for healing 3k and other stuff but not the invul :( Need rng to help
 
Yea, Cosmic Midtown vs regular Midtown is night and day.

Right, I need to pass this bloody trial. Under 1k omegas which doesn't help, I should concentrate farming those rather than just leveling people.

Also, I hear Jean is incredibly strong? Have just over 400 es, dunno who to get between her, Ice-Man, Loki, Magik or Iron Fist?
 
IDK which is the best, but I absolutely love Ranged Summoner. Send the beasts out then blast enemies to bits.

I leveled him to 60 first time as melee and it felt lacking so I'm running him ranged for my first prestige. But I keep looking at that summon power, it's tempting me.

Lots of omegas really do make a difference, but also well rolled arts and a few blessings help. Have you tried some cheap gear enchantments? There are a few HP/Damage Rating ones that use very common runes. An Uru gear with a cheap runeword can help too. Basically, every small thing you can try to do to help. Heck, if your damage is already good you can even try a more defensive approach when it comes to costume affixes, stuff like that.

As for what hero to go with I don't know what to tell you. All of those seem like strong picks. I guess I pushed myself to either farm for or buy all the heroes just so I didn't have that problem, lol.
 
Has there always been lots of enemies stuck in the scenery? Really weird thing to see.

Nah, that was a bug introduced with the pre-chirstmas patch. Hasn't been fixed due to the holidays where most of the staff was out, but I expect it to be fixed asap now that it's back to business.

I have bless artifacts with around 70% rolls

Don't have Uru enchanted as I don't have Doop Inspiration runeword

Unique 1 is the gorilla spear with average rolls, lvl 69, has 5% summoner damage rolled on it

5% summoner damage on unique 5 too, 300 health on the rest

All artifacts blessed with Hela too, lvl 80 legendary maxed and armor relics at about 280

Insignia is purple, wish it was cosmic but hey ho

What alternate runeword would you suggest I use until I get Doop Inspiration?

Also, how do I best farm this event to get Coulson?

Ah good, I thought there was no way it could be a long term thing and just wanted to make sure I wasn't crazy.

I've been really loving Ghost Rider. Got his second movement power and it's enjoyable to just run down all the weaker enemies. Also like that charge power where you rev the bike and fling it at people.

I'm totally overwhelmed with all the items I have though. Should I hold on to all the costume cores for later? How important are all the coloured crafting materials?
 
Well, summoner runewords are kind of expensive all around. For defense I guess ancient Grove is very cheap, or Seer's Brilliance for the HP and INT. Just have something you can spare for it.

Purple insignia is fine, it's always about the kind of insignia and the affixes. Cosmic grade is just a luxury to round up an endgame build at that point.

Gorilla spear is fine, you can also try a Soulsword if you have one around. I mean, your items seem fine, but the thing with the trial is that's very specific and sometimes means gearing a bit more defensively than you normally would. I'm not an expert on it either, but yea, invul core really felt like a must to me.
 
Is there a easy way to track what heroes you own and what level they are at besides manually scrolling through the hero tab? This question applies to the team-up heroes too.

Will try the runeword and the invul core

I think I had a soulsword or two, but traded to crafter for relics :(
 
how are you even being hit with summoner doom? not being a dick btw, if you were failing from the timer running out I would understand, but dying is weird. hes always targeting pets, and the pets absorb stuff that would kill you in range (like the green blast thing).

Doom and Rocket were the 2 easiest for me just because of the pets absorbing so much of the dmg and just overwhelming him

I fucked up with Skull and got hit by his 1 hit kill move

Ran Ultron ALL DAY and his decent artifacts haven't dropped at all

RNG gods hate me :(
 
im think a very late or early 2017 console version, from how im seeing things, they know alot of system need overhauling like crafting etc, with how crafting is getting streamlined etc its obvious thats a step in not just qol for pc but making things alot easier for controller/ console players.

it would be in their best interest to get this shit sorted before hand. i also think its one of the reason why they have removed the a hero a month thing, we are only getting 9 heroes in 2016 pack not 12. this obviously gives them extra time to concentrate on other things.

with how the patch process is on the consoles they would need their weekly patches to not have serious issues otherwise those weekly events etc would never happen on consoles. heance why the 9 hero not 12 works their too.
 
beast master runeword will do until I get doop inspiration

How do I farm omegas for coulson? Just do his daily?
 
ow yeah, i remember this one. It was pretty interesting back in a days I was crazy about superheroes... Not the case anymore, but playable Dr Doom sounds like a very interesting choice.
 
But, my runes!

Ah, it could be worse.

That's why I recommended the super cheap recipes with runes you could spare. Bow, Ash, Oak, Birch, Cattle are easy to come by. Serpent, Tyr, Thor, Zod, etc. are not.

You can usually tell by the rune's sell price, but runes is really something you should read up on a bit to get familiar with what's good.
 
going by looks of things it gaz purposely bugged the limbo demons in midtown thus stopping the part 4 of the magik costume because they needed to stall some time.

considering most of these was figured out in 2 days and the thread in question has like double the posts with everyone trying practically everything im gonna go ahead and say this was on purpose.

it wouldnt be first time they did the same with the deadpool pirate achievement.

I've got Beast Master on Doom now until I get Doop Ins

The other Uru was that Ancient Grove, would've used on Iceman but it's easy enough to make another

They have to patch the game to add the demons to midtown and there has been no patch over Christmas.
 
Any opinions on Winter Soldier?

I wanted to play a ranged character that uses stealth and Black Widow really didn't seem to cut it for me.
