    There is no further point of guessing cause now it is 100% sure it will be Doreen Green - Squirrel Girl.

    But I hope Iron Fist will show also soon icon_e_wink.gif

    Hint: The new character is capable of defeating a popular 4*-requested villain !

    We get a fresh new Green Bag to defeat invisible woman by not having to look at her. WOOT
    She gets a new name called Green Bag Lady.
  • Please not squirrel girl. icon_neutral.gif
    I thought that was a joke from another post but now I'm getting worried.

    Please Devs NOT Squirrel Girl. That'd be so embarrassing.

    What's wrong with Squirrel Girl?

    Apparently, if somebody could find out she was in the Windows file of the Steam version, she should be released anytime soon.
  • Will this update go live in January?
    Will this update need to reinstall again? (twice per month?? icon_mad.gif )
    I am temporarily in China, where google doesn't work, so my game can not update.
    Info with shield cooldowns and Dr.Dooms ability is little confusing, guys... Its already here, don't you know what you put into R68?
  • Considering the last few releases, I'm guessing another Guardian of the Galaxy.
  • Gonna try something different this time...

    It's definitely not Gambit. No way, because Remy hates springtime... icon_cool.gif
  • “From throwing his signature arsenal of Pumpkin Bombs with his left hand rather than his right, to leaning in the opposite direction while riding the Goblin Glide, it’s a fresh, new path forward for the character, and everyone at Marvel is excited for fans to follow the ‘Sinister Southpaw’s’ reign of terror.”

    David,

    If Squirrel Girl is in fact next (which I 100% support!), may I request this awesome #1 variant cover be used as her in-game cover? icon_e_smile.gif It's SO much more representative of her unbeatable-ness than the standard cover for #1.

  • I kinda like this one

  • 3 hour shields need no more than 3 hour cooldowns.

    Fix that and it will be perfect. Until then, its just frustrating.

    Ha, awesome! I'd forgotten she was in the GLA mini

    Another great Squirrel Girl #1 variant:

    Client updates every two weeks are pretty standard for this game. I hope you're not in China for too long, or it's gonna get really frustrating trying to keep up.

    Yeeeeah, I'm thinking that someone responsible for writing the patch notes that they provide to David Moore to post is gonna get a finger-wagging.

    I admit, I am actually conflicted this time.

    I really like Squirrel Girl, but I hate all new characters in this game because every single one makes the game worse.

    Sad.

    Hi all,

    The info on Shield cooldowns and Dr. Doom's third ability appeared for clarity on features recently added (they went live in between R68 and R69) and for everyone who doesn't go deep into forum discussions. The final notes also appear in-game via the FAQ and are translated and appear across the world on various store fronts, etc., so it's good to have a record of what's what.

    I'll pull them out of the preview as they seem to be causing confusion. icon_e_wink.gif

    How does having cool, new characters make the game worse? Luke Cage made the game better.

    Elektra's weird.

    4* Thor made the game scarier.

    I can only think of a couple of new characters that made the game worse, and that's only because they were awful, and getting their covers meant not getting a better character's cover. But not in general. Adding new characters does not make the game in general worse. It makes it better. It keeps the strategy dynamic. It gives us more to look forward to.

    It makes the game more dynamic at the 3*+ top end, but it slows the 2-3* transition and keeps more players away from that top end.
