Demiurge_Will has continued to pop in when he has time and answer a few questions. He has done this for March and April and hopefully will find time in May. To make it a bit easier for him I am condensing some of the topics that have been mentioned over the past two months below so Will can pick up on any of them as he chooses.
Please ask new questions below with these ground rules:
1. Do not tag Demiurge_Will he is aware this thread exists and his answering questions is a function of time not being alerted that a question has been asked.
2. Try and keep your question concise. If it requires paragraphs to explain it probably isn’t of general interest
3. Don’t post “where are the answers” or “Hellooo where are you Will” we have received more information over the past two months in these threads than the previous twelve.
I repeat my Thanks to Will and Brigby for allowing this to continue.
Outstanding Topics from previous months:
Versus/PvP
Are there plans to open up MMR?
Are there any plans to add 4* into the rotation?
Can we get weekly 5* buffs?
Can we change the roster of required villains and heroes in Lightning rounds?
Story/PvE
Time slices being made more convenient for those who don’t have an ideal choice ATM?
Is there a way to move the dialog screens to someplace where we can see them all at once and not have to skip them while playing?
Could the animations for Mindless Ones be accelerated? The placing of their tiles is very slow.
Roster Slots
Any thought to changing the cost?
Boss Events
Difficulty of Side Node Scaling jumping so severely after 24 hours, could it be more gradual?
Rewards seem to be lesser than for a typical Story/PvE event, will they be normalized?
Can you increase the difficulty of the Boss; advanced rosters have more trouble with the side nodes.
Deadpool’s Daily Quest
Will there be a node which rewards a 4* added?
Can we have a daily Crash of the Titans?
Supports
Will the flow of Red-ISO be increased?
How often are you planning on releasing new supports?
Will they be added to Daily Resupply?
Will there be a token store dedicated to allow purchase via in-game currencies?
Quality of Life
Can Prologue be updated?
Can we have an “Open All” token button?
Can we have a token which can be purchased for Purple-ISO?
Are there new game play nodes on the drawing board?
More alternate Covers?
Can we have some more information on how you view the flow rate of 4* as 5* feeders?
Token dilution in both the 4* and Classic 5* pools
Has there been consideration to a puzzle-based/conditions-based win condition?
Is there consideration to a re-balancing within the 4&5* tiers to make some of the older characters who have become obsolete due to power creep?
I think I got everything. Please add in anything I missed in a comment please.
Again my thanks to Will for taking time to answer.

Yes. In the upcoming R152 update, there will be an indicator on characters that shows which one has a Support attached to them.

Has Auto-play been considered and can we possibly expect it in the future?
Last year there was a Survey asking if we would want Auto-Play. I don't know what the results of the survey showed but the perfect place to do this is Deadpool Daily Quest (DDQ). This been the most positive game mode since its creation but at this point it’s boring and timeconsuming. However it is necessary to play for the resources (e.g. Iso, covers, tokens). The system could look at Shield Rank (maybe 60 and up) and ask if we want it auto-played for the rewards.

Blindman13 said: Are the Guns-N-Roses references deliberate? Is there a big fan on the design team?Symbiote Destroyers have an "Appetite for Destruction" ability.In the last sub of The Hunt story, Iron Man says "Welcome to the Jungle!" (its the first panel on that node, so I see it briefly every time before I hit the skip button)There's probably more that I'm forgetting or missed. Would these be too on-the-nose for one of the Storms to have a "November Rain" ability or one of the magical or Hand characters have a "Use Your Illusion".

There are other musical references lying around. I believe in the first sub of Meet Rocket and Groot there are nodes called Can't Stop, Won't Stop and Don't Stop referencing the Beastie Boys song. I remember others scattered around but can't recall them off the top of my head.
