Character affiliations

In my opinion, MPQ doesn't make enough use of the groups, but still there are a few uses like RnG4 with fellow GotG or Cap5/IM5 with their CW buddies.

I was wondering if anyone has a nice up-to-date overview of all groups and/or characters with their affiliations.

A second request is for the developers and/or moderators. Either make it much easier to see everybody's affiliation and/or communicate better if anything changes.. I mean, whoever normally scroll all the way to the end to check that Natasha joined Team Cap??

    Natasha is a former Soviet super spy, she changes affiliations like the rest of us change underwear.

    I still think Team Affiliations should include more people that have been on the team for a short time and not just core members. So, for example, pick one of the Tony Starks and make him GOTG affiliated. She-Hulk and Medusa should be Fantastic 4 affiliated. And so on.

    Affiliation boosts are something I think are really needed to encourage more variety of characters being played. Better boosts if all 3 characters are in the affiliation. Also, better boosts if the affiliations have a leader and you play the leader, i.e. cap, iron man, black bolt, star lord, etc...

    Ghehe. Maybe they could do something with that as well. Before you're in battle, you won't know her affiliation. Or even a 1% chance she will actually join the enemy team during battle? ;-)

    Anywho.. any got working on a list? 

    And @Brigby, can we be informed whenever anything changes regarding characters affiliations? Ty in advance

    Well, there's a lot of space for future development here, and I'm sure they are planning something bigger with team affiliations. I mean there is just to much potential here.

    My only grief right now is that X-Men are not an affiliation. Wolverine, Iceman, Storm or others are just 'heroes'.

    Joking aside, I still hope they get the X-Men rights sooner rather than later. While Inhumans are nice and have some cool characters, X-Men are vintage and most of use grew up with them. Hard to beat that.

    Correct me if I'm wrong, but won't that make 1/3 (just a guess, someone with better comic knowledge would be able to correct me) of the current available characters affiliated to Fantastic Four? I'm not complaining if Medusa is considered a member of Fantastic Four, Carnage Medusa Mr F just got a boost.

    It would be quite a lot. Probably the one you could leave out is Hulk as MPQ doesn't have his gray version.

    Other teams you could have

     The Illuminati – Dr. Strange, Iron Man, Black Bolt, Mr. Fantastic, Professor X (Not sure if Black Panther counts).

    That actually could be a boss event ala Sinister Syndicate when I think about it. Hulk would need to be boosted for that one. :)

    A front page icon denoting affiliations would be a nice QoL improvement.

    Marvel has the rights to do whatever they want with the X-Men outside of film and television. They always have. As far as I know, Marvel hasn't entered into any exclusive agreements with any video game developers.

    As for how they could develop better uses for affiliations, there been a lot of good ideas over the years. I made some suggestions very recently.

    Funny that you mention that...  The X-men predate the Inhumans by less than 2 years.  If you grew up on X-men, you also grew up on Inhumans. :)
