Rewards and new characters getting progressively worse

edited May 2014 in MPQ General Discussion
There was a time when I was excited to play this game. combos like patch strike tiles + hulk anger, ares yellow + 2 star widow heals, etc. But now all we get are C level heroes like falcon or rehashed 2 stars like Thor and cap. I'm pretty sure the game devs want to make money but the way they are approaching the game is not going to reap long term gains ( ala magic the gathering and it's 18 year cash train). My advice is stop being cheap with the reward structure (top 75 gets 3 star rewards now instead of top 100) and bring out some well thought out 3 star heroes that synergize with existing heroes ( silver surfer, gambit, ice man, etc). If this were the only game in town they might get away with this weak sauce but hearthstone is an alternative as are many others so as the playerbase this consider yourselves warned.

    Yup. Hearthstone on iPad is bad news for MPQ.

    I don't even know where to begin with your comments towards the new characters. You say that combos like patch strike tiles + hulk anger are fun, and yet you think that Falcon, a character specifically designed to combo with other characters, is C tier? Also, are people really still complaining about Lazy characters? LazyCap was released like a month ago, its not like every single character that has been released in the past month has been a lazy character or anything like that. You just straight up have character preferences and think that anyone that isn't a character you like is stone unplayable or something. You have a point with the reduced rewards structure, but everything before that just seems like unsubstantiated whine.

    He's talking about canon
    Falcons not even on the b-list.

    We also have lazy daken looming threateningly on the horizon and yet another storm being teased

    I haven't started playing that long (44 days and counting), so i won't know how it feels like before.

    But i will say that Lazy capt play style is different enough from capt. The blue defense tile left over from Lazy capt blue ability makes him viable in fights, something which Capt will never be able to do. While slow to build up, Lazy capt play style is strategic and i love how I need to plan ahead to maximise his blue ability.

    So don't dish lazy capt... he's different enough from capt, more so that Lazy thor is with thor.

    I expect Mohawk Storm to not be a lazy. Her looks and story is different enough that I think she will have a different skill set.
