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

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.

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

that's the asian psylocke

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

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

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

um, holy shit the rewards for the daken/xforcewolverine/thug mission, about seven in, is 3 separate 5k isosthis 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

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

awww not repeatable :(
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

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

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
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.

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
