Hey there Doomsaw!  A while a go you guys said you were working on a possible horseman costume for Ghost Rider. Is there any news on how far it's gone or if it will be released this year? Anyways thanks for doing the AMA!

1. Are extra rebindable hotkeys still coming for the extra action bars?
2. Will hero skill trees continue to be expanded or new trees added?
3. Possibility to form alliances with other supergroups?
4. In-game voice chat?
5. How many heroes after Pyslocke are planned (internally) to be released by end of year? (Totally not a trap)

BruceYee

Thanks in advance.

1. Will Phil Coulson ever be a playable hero?

2. Will Marvel Heroes ever get player housing?

At the time of my purchase it was like 90% sure these would be the 2 included if the tech could work and was my deciding factor since I really wanted a complete Fantastic Four set, and Rogue is my all time favorite.

 

I'll right, you got me, I'll step up and make it official:

 

Mr. Fantastic is the 11th Hero from the Advance pack. He is heavily underway and will be released in July. He looks amazing and fun. I might make him my new main hero.

 

Rogue is the 12th Hero from the Advance Pack. Her release will be late 2014 or first one of 2015. I am 100% sure she is going to be the favorite release for many players. She has so many options available to her.

Any timeframe for the Alejandra Blaze costume for Ghost Rider? Really looking forward to that one.

Hello Doomsaw! I want to start by saying thank you for answering all of our questions!

 

My question is about the rune system, I was wondering if you guys were considering allowing the combining of lesser runes to make better ones similar to that of the system in Diablo 2. I understand that you guys want some runes to be quite rare such as Zod, Thor, Odin, Loki, and Serpent but what about allowing crafting as high as the second tier of runes? For example you could combine 3 Game runes for some gold amount and maybe a cube shard (or whatever material you'd prefer) for something in the next tier like a Cattle rune and so on to be able to make something like Sif, Ymir, or Tyr eventually. I think this would add a level of value to the lesser runes and maybe help out those who are having a bad time with RNG Jesus? Thanks again!

Yay you're the best.

Hi Doomsaw, I'm extremely excited and waiting anxiously for Mr Fantastic. How much work has been put in to him so far? Any previews as to what he can or can't do? Will he be flailing his arms like Dr Octopus? And great job on this awesome game , please keep up the good work!!

What can you tell us about upcoming One Shot terminals?

UncleCluster

How will villains be integrated into the game?

 

How often does Marvel deny a character you guys want to make?

 

I saw a picture of Fantomex somewhere with regards to Marvel Heroes...what's up with that?

 

Will the one year event top all other events?

Baelin

Any chance hero tokens or costumes will be tradable? I'm sitting on a couple that I will most likely never use.  It would probably get out of hand with trades and sales and a gazillion loss of profit

 

Thanx for a great game

Coulson will be a Team-Up Hero for sure.

 

I would say 20% chance he is also playable at some point. Having a SHIELD agent as playable is perfectly reasonable, but he would be in line behind Nick Fury.

 

Coulson could have Hill as the enhanced costume.

 

Player housing in some form has been discussed. Nothing super fancy, but perhaps a private training room for your supergroup or yourself is within the realm of possibility, but is not currently on the schedule for this year. I would support the idea.

I have a question, this comes from Shroom420. Recently with the addition of the Asgardian arc, it seams to be less open world, and more linear. Is this to be a sign of other things to come, or will be see more open world maps like Madripoor in the future? *Note he like big maps and can not lie.*

Can we maybe get an official button for the ultimate skill maybe in the middle of the UI skill bar? IMO it feels like it should have its own slot. I know about using the U button, I just want  a visual representation

If Reed is coming in July, who is coming in June? Star-Lord?

Hi, Doomsaw.  Happy early one year anniversary of MH.  Game has come a long way since launch.  

My question is about competitive PVE modes/leader boards.  Can you share some thoughts/plans on what you are thinking for this?  You may have noticed the X def tourny started by the Leigon of Doop and The Mavericks SG.  Will there be any support for these types of things in game in the future?

Cheers.

We have plans for several new One Shot terminals each year, with dozens of potential options at our disposal.

 

Some of them are stories that could be descibed as "side chapters" to the story involve alternate dimensions, some of them are based on time travel and some are explorations of new zones.

 

Each of them will have more challenges than a "terminal" and will have some story element that you might not expect. They will also have unique rewards for each along with achievements as part of the upcoming achievement system.

 

Example: We all love the storyline that had Daredevil as the leader of the Hand ninjas, the Shadowland storyline, so that is high on the list.

Hi Doomsaw . Can u please spoil some upcoming Surtur's raid details ? Would love to know more about it and make early preparation .

When PVP available ? Consider some heroes received reviews some didn't,will it make PVP imbalance if u launch it soon ?

Also will Gamora/Drax appear as playable heroes instead of team ups during the upcoming GotG movie ?

Thanks for answering

I got another question, Doomy.

Any chance that Omega Red will be playable one day?

The Surtur raid boss is the final boss in the final chapter of the Asgard story arc.

 

He is very special and is so huge that is requires us to allow the camera to be pulled back MUCH farther than normal to see the whole battle.

 

You can still zoom in close or zoom out a huge distance, whatever you prefer.

 

The fight also includes new mechanics, new animations, new VFX. The fight takes about 15 minutes for Surtur and his henchman. The other fights in the raid each take about 10 minutes, assuming you succeed in the first try.

Are there plans for a Dark Phoenix enchanced costume for Jean?

Thanks for your hard work

NightmareDJK

Thanks Doomsaw - Ryolnir had also indicated that there will be numerous "What If?" scenarios!

Yes, 95% chance to have Vision as playable. We know he will make a great hero.
