broll said: Bowgentle said: The release schedule has been the same for almost 5 years.I'd say it's sustainable, yeah. It can't be more than 3 or 4 because that's when 5* came into being. Before that it may have been similar but couldn't be the same (before my time).Just because something has been the same for a long time doesn't mean it's sustainable. Whaling went on for hundreds of years and now that rate can no longer be sustained, many non-renewable resources experts say will stop being sustainable soon. If I could eat 4000 calories a day for years before I got so fat I couldn't walk/ If you have a forest with 10,000 trees in it you could cut down 1,500 trees a year for 5 years, but you couldn't sustain it past 6. I could put 200 gallons of water day into a 1.000 gallon reservoir for 4 years, but not past 5. The fact that something was done for years doesn't necessarily mean it's sustainable.

Stop trolling.They have released a character every two weeks since about March 2014.Of course the tiers of the characters changed.

It defaulted to the 2* one. Could use the 3* since I just sold a max champ and the replacement only had a couple of covers on it. Decided to use the undercovered 5* and it took around 3 minutes for me to find him. They can add all the characters they want, it will only be a problem if they let it become a mess which it is already starting to become.

It defaults to your lowest ranked Hawkeye, for some reason, even though all three of mine are boosted... Same with Deadpool. My X-Force is higher ranked than my 3-star Deadpool. Iron Man, though, it goes right to Hulkbuster at 209...
Straycat said: There has been a new release every 2 weeks for a while now. I remember the dev video released before the OML nerf where they basically said, we like the schedule and aren't changing it. And over a year and half later, they've stuck to it. The current roster is pretty huge, and its not hard to predict how big it will get if it continues. So the main question comes down to: Does something need to change?On one hand, dilution is crazy and will just get worse. On the other, I have mostly kept pace with the vaulting tokens and the 50-50 latest/classic tokens. At best I had all but 4 champed. Currently I have all but 5. I gained ground on the 5* tier. Aside from the other issues that have come up, like less forum discussion, overall apathy etc. what would happen if the game continues on its current trajectory?
