Support NeoGAF

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Looks like I'm gonna lose all my crystals on Gamora, SG and CM costumes, so it looks like the new characters aren't going to be available to me for some time.

I'll have to choose one to slowly work towards with daily chests, apparently they aren't farmable, which is no surprise.

As for new characters, I hope they add some more villains as they've fucked up the balance with the past few updates.

 

[Fright Zone]

How long is the maintenance for?

 

[Drayco21]

How long is the maintenance for?

Based on previous update times, most of the day.

 

[AdawgDaFAB]

How long is the maintenance for?

A little less than 6 more hours if they stay on schedule.

 

[Durden77]

Holy crap, what excellent deep QoL improvements. They just won't let me stop playing this game will they? None of the 3 new characters interest me, but a few of the uniforms do. Also yay for Ant-Man getting a 6 star skill! Been slowly working on getting him to 6*, at 5* now.

I've been dicking around with this Star Wars Heroes game while this one's under maintenance, and it definitely takes a lot of cues from this game. Similar "biometrics" type system and the like. Good. FF is one of the only full fledged F2P games that doesn't feel like a rip off to me, and it always actually feels like I'm earning something when I play. The more people that take heed, the better.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

How long is the maintenance for?

8 hours.

 

[Drayco21]

Game is live- enjoy your free 100 crystals, rad new costumes, and sick new background for the main screen.

WE GOT FUTURE SIGN

 

[shadowstar]

The daily chest selectors work on the new characters. I've been saving them and kept rolling speed thinking I was unlucky. All three new spiders are speed.

So lucky...

 

[Fuu]

Game seems to be running smoother on my 5S, not sure if placebo. It wasn't running badly by any means before, but now it's like butter.

 

[Fright Zone]

So the only way to get the new characters is through chest selectors and random bios from villain siege etc?
I never seem to get speed or universal in the selectors.

So glad that the AoS loading picture has been retired!

 

[mreddie]

Just the game is giving out bios with the free daily boxes so upside, it's just a very slow crawl to beef them up.

Much better than it used to be, at least you get 8 daily for the 4

 

[superdeluxe]

Dislike that bonus is now merged with max 5 runs

Speed Selectors feel like the most common of the four types so far, so it shouldn't be too hard to get them to an okay level as a F2P player. Trying to 6 star them is going to suck ass, but that's true of most characters.

Real shame there aren't Special Missions- maybe when Kaine and Agent Venom come to the game, there can be a full Spider-Verse special missions section added to properly allow for grinding.

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Gamora's costume looks AMAZING, my jaw dropped. Sister Grimm's also looks cool, can't wait to eventually get her to 6*.

Also I'm okay with having to use daily chests for the new characters, I don't have a speed character to farm anyway so now I just have to decide which one I want farmed first.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

I take back what I said, I already miss Bonus Missions. Sure, the Lv1 Chips were useless but I got all types of Norn Stones, instead of two types each day. Of course, the quantities were lower, but consistency was nice.

Used to provide a lot more potential daily gold too.

I don't really mind the change though, I really only played one daily and bonus a day for my 25 crystals anyway.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Actually, I think the gold loss is negligible at best, don't forget that the first few bonus levels barely gave you any gold. I prefer the new bonus levels, especially that I can put it on repeat.

 

[F0rneus]

What's up

 

[mreddie]

What's up

HOW?

 

[F0rneus]

HOW?

6 star mega ticket from the sales haha...

Spoiler

And a login pack for 5* and 6*. I'm not rich...but I need MAH SPIDERS!

 

[shadowstar]

Bought all the costumes yolo.

 

[shadowstar]

What's up

Saw this on reddit, wondered how.

 

[The Kree]

I died in the middle of a villain siege and a new character selector popped up instead of just going back to the menu, but the game froze when I made my choice.

 

[Drayco21]

Netmarble put up another new trailer for the update. It features the characters in a snow environment.

New Christmas themed event levels like the Halloween one still forthcoming? Could see them doing that and just giving the Spidey heroes as the rewards.

 

[mreddie]

Does anyone know Hero Ranks work? Iron Fist got reduced to 2 attacks but he's 3 stars

 

[F0rneus]

Saw this on reddit, wondered how.

Painstaking farming of their bios, of course! I mostly have the farmable heroes for a reason! Just keep doing these heroes's multiple missions, and they'll be yours!

Spoiler

My wallet cries every night

 

[mreddie]

New trailer shows snowy NYC setting, Christmas Missions incoming?

 

[F0rneus]

Oh shit. I'm hoping for some sort of gift box too haha.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

This is awesome, I almost posted the other day that some Spider-Man supporting characters would be cool, and these are exactly the three I would have wanted!

 

[-Deadpool-]

All speed character, going to take a while for me to get these new ones. Ended up just using my selectors for 8 bios each. Hope for some luck from mission results (if they are available there) or just fingers crossed for speed selectors for the next three logins haha!

 

[Bunta]

Man, I wish I had saved my daily selectors now.

 

[Messi]

So how do I go about getting Gwen and silk?

 

[Drayco21]

Log in everyday for your 8 bio hero selector. Most of the time it'll be speed (They have the most one star characters, so they're the most likely chest to open), which you can then use on Gwen or Silk.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Shit... Why is it now 1.4 GB after the update?? The App Store description says 666 mb, but installed it's over twice that.

 

[i23mix]

Been playing some team-up and it seems Ms. Marvel got some serious DPS buff.

 

[Frostinferno]

It's just an odd thing about how the game is. Every few updates you should just delete the app and do a clean install (make sure to connect to Facebook first).

Weird... I deleted it and reinstalled, and it's showing up as 1.4 again. In fact I've done it twice now, and the second time I haven't even opened it yet, but it's still showing up as 1.4.

 

[Zero-ELEC]

Okay, this may just be me, but it feels like this game runs way better now on my dinky iPhone 4S than it did before the update. I mean, framerate still drops to the teens when fighting tons of enemies (which happens more often now that the stages are shorter but the enemy counts remained the same) but the rest of the time the game runs better and crashes less often. Heck, I can lock my phone then return after a while and the game doesn't start from the title screen anymore! I could even connect my Facebook account to it to back up my save data! (Before I couldn't because it opened the Facebook app which made it so that Future Fight crashed)

I need a better phone. (Or computer, my laptop can't run the game on Bluestacks either)

 

[Frostinferno]

Miles will be the daily check in reward character for this update. Silk and Gwen will be BW rewards for 3* bracket over the coming week.

There actually is no 3* bracket, the upcoming BWs will all be >4* zo be prepared for that.

Really? Ok so at this point I should just wait on buying anything as far as bios for the new characters? I have about 2100 gems I think I want to get Spidey & Gamora costumes. I want War Machine but he doesn't do anythign new except look vs the Iron Patriot Costume.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Don't get me wrong, 3* BW will probably be back at some point, but in the upcoming week it'll all be 4*+.

 

[Bunta]

Awesome.

 

[Mrcapcom]

Got Silk with the login reward bio selector. I'll get Miles via 7 day login so maybe ill buy spider gwen pack.

 

[mreddie]

Also, some missions are Time Attack missions, think of it as Horde mode.

 

[Gentle Rodriguez]

Sucks that they didn't add more characters to the chaos token chests, I hope they do before I hit the cap but I doubt it.

 

[Frostinferno]

And that's what I get for posting things really late when I should be sleeping.

 

[Durden77]

About the only QoL improvement I'd like to see now is when I select a material to find, I wish the menu pop up would show which bio was associated with each mission too. Usually if I need materials, I'll go to the mission that I want the bios the most for, but cycling through all of them is a pain. Whether it just be a little picture or something it would be nice.

Bought Cap's Winter Soldier uniform. Can't decide on which others. Ant-Man is long overdue and I finally saw the movie so I'm setting aside 750 for him. That leaves me with two more I can buy.

Don't have War Machine's IP, so I might go for his Avengers one.
