    What for? It's not like you will be able to carry your account over to it............


    It's not for you silly, it's for them to get more players and more possible revenues.
    I can't imagine playing MPQ using gamepads or Kinect.

    True.

    Ok I told a lie. I used to play the hell out of Puzzle Quest on my PSP, so it can be done. I was thinking when it's time sensitive like shield-hopping or trying to clear that final round of nodes in PvE during T-30m.

    Dev ElectroBlast is on the forum, maybe he's posting something. Or maybe he's reading insightful posts and suggestions.

    Maybe he's about to post what was in the in-game update just pushed out.

    Playing Minecraft with a gamepad isn't the ideal way to play the game, yet millions have (and still do).

    50% discount on in-app-purchases!

    or they shutting down the game.

    Be happy with either thing happening.

    I'll guess....

    .... new character teases/outlines

    .... new token/character purchasing options

    .... new PvP modes, such as Balance of Power

    .... that they figured out how to implement true Boss encounters into PvE (once upon a time, they teased trying to make a Sentinel boss fight work)

    .... implementation of a story "season-like" PvE mode, where the global actions of the community influence the "general" direction of the story (example: if goal score X or boss Y is defeated by the community before time Z, then open Path 1 nodes for play over the next week; else open Path 2 nodes for play for that week)

    They will announce MPQ as best game ever cause theyve reached MYTHICAL 1$ ARPDAU! So they decide theres no sense to make any significant changes, repair bugs etc cause dumb peoples are spending tons of money anyway.

    I really can't imagine the game (literal carbon copy) on home consoles as I doubt they're going to drop timed events, hence that's why portable devices such as phones works well, boot up the game (app) anytime you want with a few taps. Plus that's (IMO) hardly exciting news.

    Been thinking about this a little more and I think it's likely to focus on a couple of main areas.

    Character levelling - I think there is going to be an updated system as to how characters are levelled. People are just finding too many issues and problems, eg. you spend money on a cover and then character gets nerfed. I can't quite pick its exact form, but could involve features such as the move to a "points allocation" type system, where if you spend something somewhere, it can be moved around; allowing characters to change cover level between games; some sort of integrated refund system, etc. I mean... following all the balance changes we have coming up (ModStorm, ModHawkeye, Dakens, Magneto/s, not even bothering mentioning X-FWolv), do you really think Patch and his instant heal isn't eventually going to get it?? This allows them to nerf / change whoever they want in whatever way they want and they can follow up with, "but hey, it's ok, you can just adjust your ABC / XYZ" and you then move points or whatever to other characters and/or get some sort of game currency back. This may be related to why we haven't seen the backlog of long-promised character changes.

    More alliance stuff - Could be a number of things such as the way points are gained, battles of an overall boss or inter-alliance (but can't forget those not in alliance or top alliance). Those who are suggesting cover trading, it's not going to happen - devs already ruled it out a number of times due to possibility of abuse. If there was a non-abusive way of it happening, that would be cool. A side issue that I would suspect might come up is the rich getting richer concept - the top x alliances / players are usually and consistently getting the highest sets of rewards every time. Smaller alliances are never going to get the good stuff. I am curious if the devs would want to adjust this a little (season alliance rubberbanding anyone? hahaha), so I wouldn't be surprised to see some modest changes but of course there may not be anything.

    Seasons - This could have little change or large. Could be moved to a more individually focused thing or a change in how points are gained by alliances or other. Lot of possibilities here, mentioned in numerous other threads. Not for here.

    I'd like to say there is something like a HQ / Base model on the way, but that seems like a whole other new thing, when a lot of current stuff needs work already. Having said that now, we'll likely see it.

    I also don't think we'll see much about new characters - we know there is another X-person coming and some variation of Norman Osborrn - so maybe a few new silhouettes. Alongside this, I would hope to see existing characters done properly first. No wait, again, who am I kidding here...

    What I would really love to see is a complete character overhaul (variations of which I have looked at in my reclassification models), but unfortunately, I don't think it's going to happen.

    Looking at the schedule it looks like the panel starts at 12:30 PST, so we have about 5 hours still. Will anyone be attending and be able to update forumgoers?

    Looks like they're going to be part of a very large panel on Marvel games. Don't care about the rest of the games, but want to hear the announcement!
