    That's what I'll be running. Hate having to go back to actually using healthpacks during a PVP climb, but that's what Tacos are for.

    Brigby,

    Any chance that this Ironheart announcement is NOT the secret you didn't want to spoil, and we will be getting that long-awaited new gameplay mode (or anything else)?

    Basically, should we be looking forward to anything new, other than characters, and can you give any sort of time frame?

    Thank you!

    Brigby was likely referring to Ironheart. The Sneak Peak posts normally only show the monthly events and new characters. It rarely gives us details on new gameplay modes. If there was a new gameplay feature or change it would be a separate post. I am hoping something comes around for Deadpool's Anniversary.. perhaps a permanent Crash of the Mad Titan type of event/node.

    This Ironheart announcement was in fact the secret that I didn't want to spoil until the Marvel interview was posted. Having said that though, other than characters, there is new content anticipated to be coming in the future.

    I unfortunately do not have much information available to reveal at this moment though, including any sort of a time frame. Considering it's still in the design process, this news is subject to change, so please keep that in mind.

    Brigby, did you and the devs take notice of the poll of wanted features/improvements to the game? (viewtopic.php?f=7&t=56985)

    I think you can see a lot of participants (many hundred) really want focus on improvements OTHER than constant new characters. We know thats where you get your mones, but we all are starved for much needed improvements.

    While I would also like to see things other than new characters, I think it's worth considering that it might not be possible for them to make that kind of shift. The people working on which characters to include and art and gameplay and numbers and getting approval from Marvel and all that jazz don't magically have the ability to code the new features we want just because we want them to.

    I agree that the health and longevity of this game needs some more work in numerous areas, but reducing character releases doesn't magically free up resources to make that happen, either.

    I feel like everytime a new character comes out I fall behind in the game

    Well, stomping PvE should be easier than usual this week. Outside of Strange's boosted Yellow murdering goons, this is pretty close to ideal in 3-Star land. Thanks!

    Even if i get Riri late Max Progression should be easy enough since i do 4 clears on wave nodes, but the Hood vs Hood action will likely get annoying

    Hearts of Darkness (1/23/17) *New Update*
      Featured Characters 4-Star: Ironheart (Riri Williams) 3-Star: The Hood 2-Star: Daken (Dark Avengers)

    The Hood vs The Hood gonna be amusing for HoD.

    Wonder how long D3 has been waiting to remove the enemy character restrictions. It's like 4 events in a row with villain essential at 3* level.

    Dr Strange again before Thanos on Deadpool Daily? Well, I do need more champ levels on him, so okay.

    New characters are inserted at the end of the DDQ cycle, so I fully expected Strange to reappear before Thanos. It will be my first yellow Strange and thirteenth Thanos cover, so I am looking forward to this.

    I'm starting to wonder if 3* Strange is even in my Heroic tokens. After buying 3 covers to get him maxed I've so far only gotten 1 champ level for him, and that was bought in this weeks Cyclops vault!
