I was lucky enough to get beta access to this game and I've been having a blast. It's awesome! I can't wait for beta to be over and to seriously play with my friends. I'm also really hoping they include Iron Man's black and gold Marvel Now armor.

Also in the Beta and loving it. Can't say anymore of course due to the NDA. Can't wait for open beta to discuss it with others.

Re: Iron Man's "Marvel Now" armor, I'm sure they'll add it at some point. Since they said they planned to include the Marvel Now costumes.

And Jean Grey was already shown with her Marvel Now "All-New X-Men" costume at the NYCC panel.

So, a few thousand people log on to play and you... what? You play one of 200 Hulks or Wolverines? How do you know who you are onscreen? It looks about as fun as a Facebook game.

You should at least watch demo footage or bother to, you know, read the article in depth before making stupid comments like this.

Not everyone is going to be in the same place at the same time. And there's more characters available than just Hulk and Wolverine.

And I'm sure they'll explain it somehow with the game story. I'm guessing Doom's Cosmic Cube breaks down the walls of reality.

They've already announced 26 characters, IIRC. And with the the decades of different looks and costumes, there will be plenty of diversity.

Maybe you should wait and actually try the game before you dismiss it with such mindless complaints.

I honestly can't tell whether I'm excited about this or not. I'm not historically a fan of MMOs and the cast list still seems a little small (and Avengers-centric) to me. Maybe I'll try it once they announce more PCs.

[Beast]

I don't know about Avengers Centric really. Sure they announced a lot off the bat. But that was because of the movie.

But there's been plenty of representation from all avenues of the Marvel Universe. It's just that so many people have also been Avengers.

I actually look forward to this, finally a break from the other fantasy MMO's. And a MMO about Marvel? What else is there not to like? Gonna be badass! I can see myself playing this more than any other game I've played.
