    - Powered-Up characters will now correctly show their increased stats in the Character Select screen.

    This will be very handy, thanks for the update and fix!

    Jubilee is probably an April Fools joke. It better be because I have been waiting for Mr. Sinister for a while.

    Well, it's not obviously a clue for Dazzler, so it's probably just a space-filler.

    I'm still waiting for the [redacted] so that I can [redacted] my [redacted] because [redacted].

    Classic Jubilee or Vampire Jubilee? Blade has been a vampire slayer in a game without other vampires for too long!

    It looks like Classic 90's Jubilation Lee from the pic on the update today.

    Bah. I was hoping for a big announcement on the top secret new feature. I was hoping it’d be rolled out with the new season. And we’d get details now as that’s a week away. Though maybe that’d be a separate thread?

    Also, can we find out what the incoming change is that required the steam UI to be all fragged up? Please?

    To be fair, the new season starts next Thursday, so there’s still time for a grand announcement.

    Hi Everyone,
    Here are the release notes for the R149 update!


    • Players will now be able to select Doctor Doom more easily in the starting tutorial of the game.
    Finger on the pulse right here.
    This issue was actually bigger than it may sound. Players were unable to easily locate where to click Doctor Doom, in order to trigger the next sequence of events. Due to this, there were players that thought their game crashed or froze, causing them to not be able to progress further.

    This fix should now make it so it's much easier to locate the correct area to click, in order to continue tutorial progression.
    Snark recanted then. That is a big deal for new players.

    I thought it was Monday. Totally forgot there’s an off-season.

    What is this supposed to mean?

    Also, when are we getting news about the groundbreaking features that ended up trashing the Steam UI?

    Would appear that some players were not getting the right rewards, and now that's been fixed.

    If they told you when you're getting news, it wouldn't be news.

    Really?  Almost all TV and radio news on then planet would disagree with you. They tell you when they’ll be airing their news to an often obsessive degree. 

    So you’re saying if they said this:
    (Example totally fake)
    Stay at tuned to the forums on Thursday for news about an exciting new feature!

    it suddenly wouldn’t be news?

    But if they did that, people might not come to the forums until Thursday. Lower traffic = lower engagement.
