Break Heroic Packs down into 4 choices.

With the quantity of new 3* characters coming out it is clear by looking at players rosters that while they may have every cover the quantity of covers makes it ridiculously rare to get enough 3* covers to be viable, which in turn keeps them running 2* teams for too long which makes them feel stagnant.

I suggest making heric packs have 4 variations as a choice from a standard heroic token:

Pack 1: Chance of 2*s and punisher, Cmags, Daredevil, Psylocke etc. or 4*s
Pack 2: Chance of 2*s and Spiderman, GSBW, Hulk, Fat Thor etc. or 4*s
Pack 3: Chance of 2*s and IM40, The Hood, Patch etc. or 4*s
Pack 4: Chance of 2*s and Ragnarok, BP, Loki, Dr. Doom etc. or 4*s

  • I agree. Those Heroics could be color coded so you'd get a small hint what to expect (for example Black Heroic token for mainly black gem users like BP, Loki, Doom). Then it would be just a question how to distribute those characters.

    That's a good idea. I miss Hulk's black cover but always get the green one from tokens. If there are some color coded tokens, it would be nice. icon_e_smile.gif

    I play Marvel Heroes off and on and one thing I like is that they have a random hero that sells for 1/2 to 1/3rd the cost of choosing which hero to upgrade. It would be nice if MPQ offered an avenue for people to select who they want to upgrade. I suggest the break down the hero pack to 4 choices as a easy solution that would make sense with their current model. If I had my way though, I would let buy their first cover for 2x cost or something rather than leaving folks stuck when they can't place high enough in their alliance to get a black hulk cover for example.
  • It depends how the developers want to address the long term character growth. I think they would want greater balance between the packs, though. Otherwise people will only focus on the "good" packs and then stop, which means less people spending $$.

    For example, you could make a pretty good team from pack 2 characters only. On the other hand, pack 4 looks the least enticing.

    Just do straight color packs. Will only pull covers of that specific color from a pool of ANY character that uses that color.

    Still suffers from the problem the original suggestion was hoping to alleviate, while still being completely at the mercy of the RNG it offers an interesting level of choice and customization.
  • colored pack is a great idea.
    and idead, 2 months ago, they were like 10 3* heroes and now 16.
    that mean, if i had 1/10 chance to get spidey, now i only have 1/16... and getting 3* full covers is harder and harder.
    and wait, get them as reward, ok... but even if i roxx, i only got 3 covers every event so once each 2 months ?

    colored token would really chance things while preventing you from pick up covers u already got.
