for all i know they could be making even more, but this stuff is generally kept secret until they're making insanobucks

Nhex, Monday, 10 February 2014 20:54 (ten years ago) link

yeah, you're probably right

New tourney, new card. Psylocke! Looks like a combo of OBW and Punisher.

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:50 (ten years ago) link

That's too bad, Punisher looks kind of like a deformed Nosferatu in the in-game art, at least she'll have OBW's silly mask on.

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:51 (ten years ago) link

is this the 80s/90s psylocke or is there an updated version of her i am unfamiliar with? feels like they are pulling marvel characxters out of a hat...

I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:53 (ten years ago) link

she hasn't really changed since the '90s

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:54 (ten years ago) link

EDIT: And Devil Dinosaur is back! (As an enemy...)

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:55 (ten years ago) link

waht, noooo

I AM SORRY FOR YOUR LOTS. T_T

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:56 (ten years ago) link

that's the asian psylocke

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:56 (ten years ago) link

kind of hilarious that they pulled in Psylocke and not Emma Frost

Fight the Powers that Be with this Powerful Les Paul! (DJP), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:57 (ten years ago) link

Didn't realize there was a non-Asian Psylocke? I mean, aside from the Betsy Braddock origin stuff?

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:58 (ten years ago) link

Also, ISO tax averted! ^_^

As a summary of what this will look like with R48:

- The Victory Bonus begins at +30 Iso for a win
- The bonus lowers by 10 Iso per Skip
- The bonus disappears at 0, then caps out at -10 Iso per skip after additional skips
- The bonus returns to +30 Iso after the match is completed, win or lose
- The Victory Bonus is only gained if the Agent is successful in their matchup

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:01 (ten years ago) link

You don't remember or know about the Psylocke/Revanche nonsense? oh man

Fight the Powers that Be with this Powerful Les Paul! (DJP), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:01 (ten years ago) link

it's dumb as hell yes

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:04 (ten years ago) link

Don't know, and it sounds like I missed out.

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:06 (ten years ago) link

um, holy shit the rewards for the daken/xforcewolverine/thug mission, about seven in, is 3 separate 5k isos
this is a cornucopia here right now

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:16 (ten years ago) link

Wonder if it'll be patched out...

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:17 (ten years ago) link

lol, up to 33k iso. I've enjoyed not spending it.

Jeff, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:28 (ten years ago) link

hahaha i totally forgot about Revanche!

ugh i was gonna wait until later to grind that simulator mission but FINE, i'll do it now.

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:48 (ten years ago) link

probably worth it. i just put in about forty minutes and got my spidey up to level 62 from 53

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:49 (ten years ago) link

holy shit @ 5000k iso-8. I only got it once, but still: maxed my captain!

Euler, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:51 (ten years ago) link

is this normal or hard Simulator?

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:52 (ten years ago) link

hate all you hoarders who compulsively play this game

mh, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:52 (ten years ago) link

damn work, always getting in the way of my MPQ time

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:53 (ten years ago) link

Nhex OTM.

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:59 (ten years ago) link

ATM I can only play vicariously through all of you.

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:00 (ten years ago) link

oh it's ON. SIMULATION 04 for reference.

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:35 (ten years ago) link

awww not repeatable :(

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:35 (ten years ago) link

actually it is, but the reward only drops once. whatevs, 5000 iso, can't complain

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:36 (ten years ago) link

how the hell do you move up rankings if you can't repeat missions and both missions give the same points for every person?

mh, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:36 (ten years ago) link

the missions in the subevents are repeatable, but on in the "main" event

Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:38 (ten years ago) link

ah

mh, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:39 (ten years ago) link

just got my rear handed to me by obw/mod storm/hood. that's a horrifying combo if you don't shut it down fast.

eric banana (s.clover), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 04:00 (ten years ago) link

surprised how much Modern Storm has been showing up in high level combos, but her loop is fast i suppose

Nhex, Wednesday, 12 February 2014 04:41 (ten years ago) link

Well, that 5000 ISO mission is out of my reach.

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 05:40 (ten years ago) link

on the regular track?

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 05:44 (ten years ago) link

def. glad i got in on that mission before the scaling turned on. on the hard track they're 230/230/230 now

Nhex, Wednesday, 12 February 2014 05:53 (ten years ago) link

oh shit, i shoulda kept playing.

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 05:58 (ten years ago) link

Regular track, yeah. Couldn't make a dent in Daken.

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 06:07 (ten years ago) link

he sucks but a double or triple power attack from a high-leveled thor does him in just fine

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 06:13 (ten years ago) link

i guess i'm due on this nonsense:

Thor - *85 of 85 (max) - 5/4/4 (max)
I WILL NEVER SELL U no matter how much they nerf you I LOVE U BOO
Wolverine Astonishing - *85 of 85 (max) - 5/4/4 (max)
you i no like so much no more
Daken - *69 of 69 (max) - 5/5 (max)
seriously; this guy is starting to look like a great third wheel for every match
ModHawk - 67 of 85 - 5/5/3 (max)
no more leveling until he's mission specific necessary again
OG BWidow - 64 of 85 (85 max) - 3/5/5 (max)
i was planning on staying focused and leveling her to max for the best usage but spiderman covers distracted me
Spidey - 63 of 77 (141 max) - 3/2/3 (5 left)
he's in that uncomfortable place where I need about two more covers to really get some use out of him (plus he's due to be nerfed). i can't help but try to get him bulked up with iso, even though his hits are weak and he's still not a solid defensive weapon at this point.
IM 40 - 55 of 89 (141 max) - 4/3/2 (4 left)
I begin to see why I should've leveled him up a bit more earlier; he's become the default IM the computer forces on you
Punisher - *51 of 51 (141 max) - 0/3/2 (8 left)
kinda useless without a few more covers
IM 35 - *50 of 50 (max) - 5/4/4 (max)
ModStorm - *50 of 50 (max) - 5/5/3 (max)
MagNow - 43 of 85 - 5/5/3 (max)
Ragnarok - 43 of 51 (115 max) - 3/2 (7 left)
ModBWidow - 40 of 40 (max) - 5/5 (max)
Juggernaut - *40 of 40 (max) - 5/5 (max)
Ares - 38 of 45 (85 max) - 2/0/5 (6 left)
i should probably be building this guy up
Invisible Woman - *34 of 34 (230 max) - 1/1/0 (11 left)
Hulk - 32 of 64 (141 max) - 5/0/2 (6 left)
this is CLEARLY the guy they want you to use as a tank; I've been dropping a level into him after every spidey level as of late
Classic Storm - 30 of 85 - 5/5/3 (max)
I'm stupid for not building her up further
Wolverine Patch - *30 of 30 (141 max) - 2/1/1 (9 left)
Wolverine X-Force - *30 of 30 (230 max) - 1/0/0 (12 left)
Doc Doom - 28 of 41 (115 max) - 3/1 (6 left)
Loki - *28 of 28 (115 max) - 2/1 (7 left)
Leveled to max just for the simulation tourney since they want you to play him so bad
Classic Mag - *28 of 28 (141 max) - 2/0/1 (10 left)
Hood - *28 of 28 (141 max) - 2/0/1 (10 left)
Cap - 27 of 85 - 4/4/5 (max)
Grey BWidow - 25 of 77 (141 max) - 3/0/4 (6 left)
Moonstone - 21 of 85 - 5/3/3 (max)
Bullseye - 21 of 45 (69 max) - 2/5 (3 left)
Daredevil - *18 of 18 (141 max) - 0/1/1 (11 left)
wow, this guy suuuuuuuuuucks
Venom - 16 of 40 - 5/5 (max)
Classic Hawk - 15 of 40 - 5/5 (max)
Bagman - 7 of 53 (85 max) - 4/2/3 (4 left)
Yelena - 1 of 40 - 5/5 (max)

3 open slots, 450 HP.

Dino's prehistoric bite SUCKS.

Jeff, Wednesday, 12 February 2014 14:20 (ten years ago) link

I beat the regular track Daken/X-Force Wolvie/goon combo once but it's kicking my ass now, for some reason. I wonder who the hell I used?

mh, Wednesday, 12 February 2014 14:51 (ten years ago) link

oh wait, there's no reason to do so, there was only one reward

mh, Wednesday, 12 February 2014 14:54 (ten years ago) link

he sucks but a double or triple power attack from a high-leveled thor does him in just fine

Does 45 count as a high level? Srsly, the game has been pretty stingy with me over Thor covers. He's level-capped right now, and along with my Cap, they're both my highest leveled characters after L77 OBW ♥. I will seriously feel broken up when they nerf her.

Anyway, I'm going to re-try that mission with a bunch of boosts, thinking +10% all, +20% Dark Avengers, and +20% color (probably blue/purp because with a maxed out Espionage, OBW is carrying a big stick).

eeeLectrelane (Leee), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 17:54 (ten years ago) link

I gave in and just maxed out my classic storm. Well, to 77, I need one more cover. Really wanted to do a three star, but lacked covers.

Jeff, Wednesday, 12 February 2014 17:59 (ten years ago) link

this game is engineered to make you feel like you need to work harder somehow

PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 18:30 (ten years ago) link

also, to make you feel like you wasted ALL THAT EFFORT when you get knocked down 100 spots in a tourney an hour before it ends. really, there's no point in jumping in too early unless you're ok with grinding it for ISO and boosts - definitely not starting at the very beginning again
