Marvel Heroes

It "should" be going live at 6PM BST for Ultimate pack owners. I caved in the end and purchased the UP pack and got a refund for my X-Force pack. The drop rate of characters and costumes just seemed to be pretty much non-existent. I also enjoyed the game in beta a lot more than I expected too. I'm a pretty big fan of the Marvel Comics soooo I guess that side of things just gripped me :p

I'm hoping the live servers will be up with no problems tonight looking forward to playing this. Still undecided on my first char, tempted to go Spiderman with symbiote costume but I'm guessing a lot of people will be running around with that :p But so far Spiderman, Hulk and Deadpool have been my favourite toons. So its going to be one of those.
 
I'm quite looking forward to this evening. I dont get home from work till about 8.30, so hopefully that will be enough time for the initial mad rush of UP owners logging in to have calmed down a bit.

And I also have tomorrow off work, so after going to the gym in the morning I'll be able to hardcore it all day :D

I agree, the drop rate of characters and costumes were very poor during beta(1 hero drop in 2 months). I was a day late upgrading to the UP :( Never mind will have to wait for Friday now.
 
Oh dear :/

Also the forums are stil down. All you get is this:

The Marvel Heroes Forums are offline as we reconfigure for Early Game Access. We'll bring them back online on May 28th before 10AM PDT.
 
Well there seems to be some progress at least. My account has updated to show I have the Ultimate Pack. And I have a wallet balance of 4930G

Keeping my fingers crossed that there might be a game for me to play when I get home in about 90 minutes :)
 
Hello everyone,

Today is a big day for everyone on the Marvel Heroes team! We’re in the process of getting ready to put the game live, but we are going to need a little more time.

Late last week, we found some serious issues that we felt we could not launch the game with. The entire Marvel Heroes team has been working for the last 96 hours straight to get the game ready. This process is nearly complete, but we have to take some more time, and ask for your patience.

We always want to find these types of potential errors, so we’re glad we had the opportunity to fix them in advance of launch.

We will not leave this studio until you can play the game. We hope this will be in a matter of hours, not days.

For those who purchased Ultimate Packs, we’re working to get the game up and running as soon as possible. We’ll issue updates in the game launcher as we get them.

We appreciate your understanding,

David Brevik and the Marvel Heroes Team
 
A bit disappointing, but these things to tend to happen with online games. If its working by tomorrow then I wont raise any fuss over it.

I bet there will be some idiots out there who demand a full refund on their Ultimate Pack, despite it meaning them losing all the heroes/costumes/other perks.

There are/were a fair amount of bugs last time I played (3 days ago); and IMO they still needed more time to fix things and probably more things I didn't realize.

But they still want to release by said date ... I don't mind really; was still quite playable and I still had fun. Just like someone said lots of people will fuss and whine about how there are bugs or they didn't get X ...

If I'm honest I was expecting it. I thought to myself if they actually get it Live when they said I would be well and truly surprised.

That said..... it’s still not live ! I just briefly checked their twitter and they are still "working on it" that quite shocking. Especially that they have not given an ETA. Ok it’s a F2P game but it should have been live last night for those that paid ~£130 for it.

I really hope it's going to be up tonight otherwise I will be really disappointed. I mean a few hours delay fine, a 1 day delay though is taking the mick a bit. If it takes longer I will be extremely unhappy. Especially given that UP were meant to get 7 days early access and Premium packs get 5 days.

4 Days for PP owners, but yeah, this whole situation ain't very good. They say they will compensate UP owners, but with what? They already have everything no?

I don't know about you guys - but it was obvious to me from playing the beta the past couple of weeks that this game wasn't ready for release (but they probably got pushed or felt pressured because of a date).

If they get it released for the UPP users I would think a compensation with gold would be good enough. I mean people could do what they wanted with it then - more exp boosts or more magic find etc ... they get so much with that pack but at least they could get some extras...

I just hope I get to play on time (Friday evening) since I bought a premium pack - don't want my time to start on Monday which I will be working all week
 
I think the worst part of this has been the communication.

I think people are ok with it been delayed as they would rather see a working product but when you keep giving the same reason over and over again you can understand why people are getting ****ed off.

The whole team should shut shop for 24hrs go get some rest and then get back on it. Your team will be more focused and more productive. Surely staying up 96hrs is illegal and it cant be very healthy.
