Marvel/DC and Superhero/Comic Book Games Megathread - Wanna Take You For A Ride - Games

[QUOTE=VenomousBeetle;50827291]at one point Jean got knocked back so hard her feet detection got stuck under the floor and couldn't walk/fly normally Other than that it's pretty much perfect [editline]4th August 2016[/editline] Also it didn't interrupt gameplay thankfully[/QUOTE] That always happens to Jean in every fucking game.

[QUOTE=AaronM202;50828907]That always happens to Jean in every fucking game.[/QUOTE] It never happened in Lego Marvel Superheroes....not to me at least

Arkham and a load of Batman/DC games are on sale on Steam right. £12.50 for Arkham Knight or £20 if you get the season pass with it

[QUOTE=DEMONSKUL;50828999]It never happened in Lego Marvel Superheroes....not to me at least[/QUOTE] Yeah but that was [i][b]LEGO[/b][/i] Jean, common mistake. [editline]4th August 2016[/editline] Earth-1360

I liked Telltale Bat - I never really cared for their other games but this seems like a fun romp. Just hope there's more detective work per episode from here on out.

Finally took the plunge and grabbed the Ultimate Alliance double pack today. Ultimate Alliance 2 just crashes on startup, this is great Edit line? Wait wait wait wait hold up now something's not right here. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/C7VbiQR.png[/IMG] Since when has there been a Windows 7 SP2? I know about the Convenience Rollup, but everything I've found points out that's not actually a SP2

Hope it doesn't dick up on my main computer when it's fixed, just realizing I've only tried it on 10. Any other sysreq there you don't meet?

[QUOTE=SoftHearted;50806850]Hopefully now I get to meet more Facepunchers that play Marvel Heroes.[/QUOTE] I made a thread for MH once and there was less than zero interest for it. Sucks too because that game is fucking fun as hell. There are so many events that make any kind of grind super easy and they give away so much stuff.

I've got it running now, just installed every update available on windows 7, must have been one of those it needed. It's still not this mythical Service Pack2 the game wants, but hey, whatever. Haven't had any controller issues with it yet, using a PS3 Pad connected through BetterDS3, lots of stuttering and framedrops though, it's real poorly optimized. Real nice finally getting to check out the DLC characters I missed out on though, , can't wait for 1's patch to come out [editline]7th August 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;50846091]Because it isn't called that.

[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;50846110]It's still a service pack, Microsoft just refuses to call it that.[/QUOTE] And having it installed wasn't enough to make the game run, had to have one of the various updates after it

Now we won't have to worry about necro

Speaking of Marvel Heroes [url]https://forums.marvelheroes.com/discussion/290927/monday-update-8-8[/url] [QUOTE]Hey folks, For this week we're planning on deploying a patch this Thursday, August 11th. As part of the patch we'll be making some tuning adjustments regarding global boss health in Cosmic patrols, as well as some additional specific boss health adjustments in some zones like Hightown Patrol. We also identified an issue with incoming damage tuning in the Cosmic Trial which will be corrected with the patch, which should reduce the amount of damage players currently are taking there. We're continuing to investigate other tuning reports right now as well, such as Team-Ups taking more damage than expected in some zones such as Cosmic Danger Room scenarios. The Ms. Marvel Team-Up is currently on Test Center, as well as Emma Frost's new costume, both of which should be going out with this week's patch. Next week there should also be a couple new costumes coming to Test Center for Ultron and Black Cat, so keep an eye out for those! Further out content is still on track for this month as mentioned last week - Hulk's VU, the Chapter 1 update and Angela will be making their way to Test Center, roughly in that order with Angela closer to the end of the month.[/QUOTE]

Jokes on them! I'm gonna finish the current cosmic trial before they even manage to patch the damage income. #HardcoreModeEngage

So they never patched XP or what? Awesome if they didn't

Actually they did. XP before these couple of patches was obscenely high on Story Mode since they also increased the amount of experience you get from defeating enemies. I could get 3 levels by just talking to a mission NPC :V. They downgraded that now.

How many levels can you get fast now?

Depends on how many characters you have on synergy with the character you're currently levelling. I can get to level 50 with some characters before fighting Doom now with 6 on Synergy. Also Omega points help a lot once you get to level 30. Which I usually get around Elektra's fight.

I'm finally playing Legendary on MUA2. The last boosts I need are only available on it, then I think I'll have every stat related unlock/upgrade besides getting em all to max level. I got them in the 40s at the moment. For some reason it's almost impossible to get enough XP in a reasonable time after like 30 unless you're on legendary. My team rn is Wolverine, Iron Man, Iron Fist, and Spider-man They gave a 10% dmg resist because "New Avengers" team Also iron fist can spam a heal power to the team, and wolverine is good DPS and the fusions with the rest are one of each type. Probably best team for this. [editline]15th August 2016[/editline] And the boost medals im using are two XP (total 25% XP boost) and an all around 10% dmg dealing boost [editline]15th August 2016[/editline] Just beat Spider-woman (going pro reg so I can finish on anti reg, my personal choice)

I really wish the creators of the Arkham games would continue that universe through a Suicide Squad game. Especially now, since the movie came out. It'd be a great way to see more of the DC universe in the semi-grounded world of the Arkham series by visiting new locations and meeting new friends or foes. I'd love to see some of the underutilized characters like Deathstroke, Deadshot, and Copperhead take the spotlight- along with maybe a few others from various Rogues galleries- where any of them can die. I think there's a lot of potential in the concept. Or even a Green Arrow oriented game in the Arkhamverse.

The end credit scene for Arkham Origins strongly hints at a Suicide Squad game featuring Deathstroke, who was also playable in challenge mode as preorder DLC Idk if that's still on the plate or not though. Arkham Knight's mistakes may have hurt the marketability, especially since any additional Arkham games would be Origins devs, Rocksteady is done with Batman iirc

We got the Assault on Arkham film which is a SS film set in the Arkham-verse but then Deadshot shot Captain Boomerang through the head in the AK tie-ins, though there's nothing to say they couldn't retcon that since its just a tie-in. WB Montreal also haven't announced the game they're working on yet, maybe it is SS and WB decided to give them time to finish and perfect it so they didn't get another AO on their hands?

Since's he's the original Boomerang's son, there's already conflict and animosity between him and Deadshot.

Arkham knight is also literally the last of the series. They could just go back to Origins/Asylum times as expected

have they fixed mua1 yet? like, controller mapping and shit?

I would totally be on for a chance to play as Deadshot on a DC game along with Killer Croc and the Joker. I know Joker was playable in Asylum but being able to do shit as him in a open map is a whole different Story. Also I said this before but I wouldn't complain at all if they started banking on making more games like Marvel Heroes and MUA but with DC characters. Specially if they added characters like The Comedian, Rorschach and Nite Owl from the Watchmen series.

[QUOTE=Pops;50892829]have they fixed mua1 yet? like, controller mapping and shit?[/QUOTE] I never had an issue with it myself, I'll play it later. Don't you have it? [editline]15th August 2016[/editline] I was gonna 100% MUA2 cuz I like it more and hopefully they'd have DLC out by then

i have it yeah, but when the game tells me to press A and instead i have to press X, something's fucked up.

We need a fucking MUA sale that's for sure, so few people have it. I'd love to try co-op but I don't know anyone up for it that has the game [editline]15th August 2016[/editline] [QUOTE=Pops;50893081]i have it yeah, but when the game tells me to press A and instead i have to press X, something's fucked up.[/QUOTE] I'll go check it out [editline]15th August 2016[/editline] I don't notice any issues with display icons- did you remap defaults?
