Not played in about 3 months but when I do I really have a lot of fun. I have some G's to spend. What new Hero do you recommend?

No1newts · 27 Jun 2014 at 20:45

You can play as Venom?!

Out of the new heroes I would say Silver surfer > Nightcrawler > Doctor Strange however it depends on whether you like ranged or in your face type action.

Yep you read that correctly

Venom, Juggernaut and Magneto are the first playable villains to be released but there's no date as of yet.

Mr Fantastic goes on the test server next week so I guess he's coming soon with Star-Lord maybe the end of July or Aug.

I would say ranged. Somebody else was saying Dr Strange is good.

Cheers

So do you play the sane story? I'm assuming treating them as when they were reformed like a Magneto in the later uncanny stuff, Jugg mid Uncanny and Venom as Flash I think it is.

I just got two random hero boxes from Gamespot, but they are only one per account. So if you've not used the Gamespot random hero box, try this code:

<code redeemed>

One use only, first come first served. If you use it and it works, drop a quick post in here so others don't waste their time if it's gone.

Everytime I log into this game there's about 15 new items in my inventory that I don't understand. I tidy that all up, then have no idea what to do do and log off. A few weeks later, I log in again and there's about 15 new items in my inventory that I don't understand.

What are they? If they are freebies, then right click on them to get stuff, and either keep it or donate/sell it to a vendor.

Thanks for heads up about code. Just got a Dupe - Human Torch :-(

Steampunk · 28 Jun 2014 at 01:44

You can always use it to increase your ultimate. I don't know if you can give it away or trade it.

Vuvuzela · 28 Jun 2014 at 01:56

I don't think you can. Its my 4th HT lol.

Omaeka · 28 Jun 2014 at 03:03

You can't trade dupes, but the ultimate power can upgrade up to 20 I think. The code is valid until Monday I believe.

No1newts · 28 Jun 2014 at 06:48

Thank you for the code! Got Cable so that's a new one. Then used 175 splinters to buy a random box of my own and got invisible Woman so that's 2 new heroes

Yep, once you go over level 20, any dupe hero token can be used to upgrade his/her ultimate power one level. At the one year anniversary, instead of taking several randoms, I used about three of them for ultimate upgrades on my HT.

In the last couple of months I've had a Black Panther (boring), and the much more worthwhile Hulk and Punisher to go with my main Human Torch.

There's also a sale on for G's and many of the things you buy with it for this weekend.

No, Agent Venom is a separate character. This is Thunderbolts Venom.

The rule for villains becoming playable is that they must at some point have been heroes or fought for good. Doctor Doom is on the playables list because he joined the FF, Avengers and X-Men to fight Onslaught and later also joined the Future Foundation to overthrow the Council of Reeds. Mandarin is not on the list because he's always been evil.
