    Interesting comment about Prof X still being around in the Marvel Game Universe. That implies he's potentially in development too.


    I noticed that too. Seems to add cred to him being a rumored 4* with all passives.

    Also of note, seems we'll see the Daily PVE with R71. And that R71 will likely hit right after ISO-8 Brotherhood, since they said Fury was thinking about sending Cyke after DP as his first mission...

    And I think a 2* Cyke in his old Uni would be nice. They could go the Capt Marvel route and keep his red but add two new ablilities to go with it. But if they do this, it won't be for awhile, I'm thinking. They will want people going for the 3* version for a while before they give them another option to get a weaker version of him.

    Phew, the complaining has been reduced to the art used for a character. Thank god we're finally down to the swill in the anger bottle.

    Thinking on it, have they ever introduced a character for the first time (i.e. not an alternate version of someone already in the game) with anything other than their current or Dark Reign costume? Modern Storm, Modern Black Widow, Astonishing Wolverine, Carol Danvers as Captain Marvel, Indestructible Hulk...

    Doc Ock? He was still "masquerading" as Superior Spider-Man, no?

    That depends on whether you'd consider Superior Spidey a variant of Doc Ock or a variant of Spider-Man, I guess.

    Interesting, not familiar with this version of Cyclops. Not sure I like the costume, but that isn't MPQ's fault, I'll have look up this storyline now.

    I'm used to the 80-90's version. I stopped reading comics early 90's when I graduated high school. So I'm classic X-men, when Wolverine didn't have bone claws (in fact at that time Marvel Trivia included the fact that his claws were NOT one of his mutant abilities), and loved watching Spiderman and his Amazing friends and everytime I saw the Spinning "Special" logo hoped it was the episode where Spidey teamed up with X-men to fight Juggernaut (A Firestar is Born)... Beast was still human, Angel still had feathers on his wings... ah the good old days.

    2* Taco!

    Make it 3* Burrito, 4* Chimichanga, 1* Churro tokens.

    And of course double tacos on Tuesdays.

    Taco Tuesday does fall in line with when ISO-8 Bro-hood is supposed to end and presumably R71 and the Daily PVE should start...

    However, the best part is the announcement from DP3 themselves about the Daily PVE. It's almost taco time, guys.

    One of the designers here at Demiurge, Casey, put together a neat Cyclops reading list. Totally worth checking out if you want to see see some of the design inspiration behind the latest incarnation of Cyclops, or just learn more about the man: http://www.demiurgestudios.com/blog/scott-summers-slim-ol-one-eye-cyclops-hes-finally-in-marvel-puzzle-quest/

    Sounds like Cyclops was given X-Force's old Green? Am excited for another druid like conversion of tiles (like Doom), and daily tacos. This entire update looks delicious icon_e_smile.gif

    "That's it for Cyclops! See you in a couple weeks for more comic recommendations for new Marvel Puzzle Quest characters!"

    Oh, really? What kind of recommendations?

    What I want to know is how he looks out of that visor, I don't think it lines up with his eyes at all.

    Also, for the new IW art: I don't think that's new. I think that's her starting pose for when she launches Force Bubbles.
    It's her "extra" piece of art that we use for things like the Comic Pack store and the like. Every character we do usually has an extra pose or two that we use for other menus like that. Kind of like She-Hulk's "human" form art.

    I'm gonna love this guy. Yellow feeds red, red does pretty good damage (I'm guessing around 3k max lvl), and black does at least 5100 damage, possibly as high as 6k, and if his visor is off, possibly kill those 6800 health chars. Too bad it'll be 3 months at the least until he's good enough to be played, but i can wait for cyclops. Great job d3 and i like that he has new health pool (1980) and he will be incorporated into deadpool daily missions!

    You'll be able to see all this in the game soon anyway, but for anyone who wants to see the basic abilities, updated his character discussion thread: viewtopic.php?f=14&t=23667 and added his icon for posting use. icon_cyclops.png

    "Deadpool has been brainstorming quite a few things lately in a bid to get himself featured more often in MPQ. Lately he’s been sequestered in the bathroom of the X-Men’s Blackbird with his full set of homemade “Marvel Puzzle Quest” Action Figures with random mutterings of “underwater levels,” “R71,” and “three stars” coming over the plane’s intercom; Fury’s starting to get a little worried, and he’s thinking of sending Scott into the Blackbird bathroom as his first official S.H.I.E.L.D. mission to find out what’s going on. Stay tuned to the game in the coming days as the details will emerge about this new treat."


    LOL icon_lol.gif This is hilarious. Cant' wait to see what this leads to!
