Marvel Heroes

[Dr. Cheesesteak]

looks like the guys like us who can't get into the beta yet will be getting in if we pay for it, according to them with their founder's whatever it's called again. Sounds like it might be this month or next.

excellent news. ...i think? I thought the game was supposed to be F2P?

You're quite the optimist and the observer.

It's just going to be like Agent Jr. subs for SHSO, still free to do everything, but get everything faster is what I'm assuming.

"oh no! This diablo styled unfinished product is too much like diablo and doesn't feel finished!"

I mean, there's some constructive criticism in those for sure, but they really come off like they're complaining the game isn't done.

[stpewnaut]

the massively, RPS and forbes reviewers are in some sort of bandwagon together

It is F2P. You can spend real money to buy characters if you choose not to wait for them to drop as loot.

So I was on the phone with a client while watching the stream. Did they say anything interesting?

I heard "You pick the first 5 heroes for free"

I just hope Rogue is there since the begining,like u think she will be...i hope you are right :D

I would pick
Rogue (ofc)
Storm
Emma
Phoenix
Miss Marvel.

About paying for beta...mnnn wouldn't do that...i will play if i win the key but wont pay to play a unfinished game.Better to be patient and wait for it to come out.Plus having the first game experience wwith a finished game is way cooler. :) Next year for sure,just hope sooner than later.

ahh, interesting. Looks like I probably will be spending some $$ on it then.

Someone who is in the beta can pack the bitraider and send for me in a Personal Message? My game fails to start because it misses files in the bitraider folder.

Please visit the Marvel Heroes official thread for technical support on the forums.

Edit: It's a busy time at Gazillion as we get ready for the release of Marvel Heroes in 2013! Now they said the year, but no idea when :P

[kr3wman]

the founders program things sound like a good idea - register and type in your favorite characters before the game releases and get them at a discounted price. I'm guessing it will be a limited list of sorts, because some people will say characters that won't be in the game, ha.

That's the worst part about the NDA. Those of us who can play, can't dispute the flawed points of those poor reviews.
