    Hi Everyone,

    Following the previous update to Deadpool's Daily Quest, we wanted to give players additional ways to improve their roster, but this time tying it closely to the DDQ character rotations that players have grown accustomed to. 

    Starting tomorrow at 7:00 AM EDT, players will have access to the Heroes for Hire store page. This page gives players the option of purchasing a cover for a hero as well as getting some Tokens, Iso-8 and Command Points.

    • There's a new store in the "Recruit Heroes" section of the game called Heroes for Hire
    • Each day, a new hero is available to be purchased.
      • Players under S.H.I.E.L.D. Rank 30 will have the opportunity to purchase a offer that includes a 3-Star cover. 
      • Players at S.H.I.E.L.D. Rank 30 or higher will have the opportunity to purchase a offer that includes a 4-Star Hero.
    • These offers come with Tokens, Iso-8 and/or Command Points.
    • Starting Thursday, 4/13, the offers will be timed with the featured 3-Stars and 4-Stars of Deadpool's Daily Quest. 
      • The 3-Star offer features the 3-Star from Dat Required Character mission.
      • The 4-Star offer features the 4-Star from The Behemoth Burrito mission.
    • The first day of the offer will be special Heroes for Hire themed offer:
      • Offers for players under S.H.I.E.L.D. Rank 30 will include Iron Fist (Immortal Weapon) and Luke Cage (Hero for Hire).
      • Offers for players at S.H.I.E.L.D. Rank 30 or higher will include Iron Fist (Danny Rand), Luke Cage (Hero for Hire), The Hulk (Indestructible), Doctor Strange (Stephen Strange), and Black Panther (T'Challa).
    In addition, this will be one of the rare times we decide to offer a direct avenue for acquiring a specific character you want.
    Why on earth would I buy anything in this game anymore when the devs have proven they'll just alter anything of any use and offer pennies on the dollar thereafter?  No more nonsense. No more ducking player feedback. It's just mind numbing how badly D3 has missed the mark at this point. 

    Over 1k days in this far, and I'm gonna give them 30 more to fix this major mistake or I'm outtie 5000. 

    If you don't like the offer, just vote with your wallet and don't buy it.

    No fix for vaulting, but we get another store (probably tied to DDQ nerf).

    Now that's a good developement.

    Not really relevant IMO. If you like an offer, buy it. If you don't like the offer, don't buy it. Sales numbers will show which ideas are appreciated by the player base and which ideas weren't so good.

    That doesn't work for occasional payers, though. The people who skip all but the best deals. By the "vote with your wallet" metric for them, there's no difference between "this is a good deal but my roster's not ready yet", "it's an okay deal but I can live without it" and "this is pure tinykitty". That's why we need to have the devs listen to why we're not spending on specific stores.

    Sure. 100 players ignore the store, then 1 whale drops few thousands of dollars and devs claim it was very popular and a massive success.

    I'd love to be excited about this but fully expecting it to be something like 10,000 HP to empty it. Unfortunately, we get very few things from these people that make you want to applaud them.

    If it's 750 coins I will laugh if there is outrage as that's how much a cover used to cost in the old system for a four star.

    Really hopeful for this system as I don't mind spending on the game but don't like that the amount of progress I'll get out of spending is luck based. If I can top up my coins to buy a cover of a character I need then I'm all for it.

    3600 HP...hahaha. Thanks for the money-grubbing 4 star deadpool daily. Exactly what we asked for! Thanks for listening!

    I'm Shield Rank 80.

    I currently have six different character covers available that include 4 elite tokens, 4K iso and a CP for 2,500 HP. That'll definitely be worth it on the right covers.It's objectively better than the 3,600 HP vaults and now we don't have to wait a week in between them.

    Mine are:
    Red IMHB
    Yellow Medusa
    Red War Machine
    Yellow Wasp
    Green Ghost Rider
    Purple Star-Lord

    Jeeeeeezus!! 3600HP. Are they kidding me? This is only resulting in me quitting VIP also. I mean come on the value you get is not worth the roughly 28 our. It's really insulting ! Last couple of weeks it's only been really stupid ideas coming out from them.

    Mine showed about half of those initially, but now only shows Iron Fist. And the price was 3600. For 2500, I would buy one.

    Still **** offer 1000HP/ 4 star guaranteed is reasonable but this is just **** in all kinds of ways
