Those visual updates are so dumb. It just feels unnecessary. I kind of like the cartoony stuff. The "realistic" costumes look blocky in this engine.
2016, can you keep up dawg?
reminds me of the jump from Ultimate Alliance 1 to 2
it was a shit change there also

I don't mind the visual upgrades, especially on Cap's face. Always bothered me lol.
MUA2's issue wasn't the visuals, either.

Indeed. The game is done in that style and as more and more updates come in characters will look more and more out of place.

apprantley ryolnir said even marvel was shocked at the taskmaster costume
I think I need to say that I like a lot of the new costumes and models, just so it doesn't come across as "hate of change" just for the sake of it, but I also think some of it is not that necessary yet, and certainly not the way they are going about it. Parts of the world or enemies could do with a pass first.
Some of the more recent ultra detailed costumes aren't better either. I dislike Magneto's alt and I swear Iron Patriot used to look better before for some reason and now it looks like a plastic toy... if a few of them lose their initial charm just to make them more detailed I think that isn't a net positive, for me at least. *shrugs*
With that white Jean costume my problem is more that it is a recolor of the basic costume, yet it costs $14 because they never updated that dumb chase costume pricing scheme. They should've changed that first. I think Black Widow's base is great, but the less realistic face probably bothers them and it will end up changing too, which could be a shame.
Hawkeye's Ronin textures need an update so bad, so maybe all is not lost for me. Kinda wonder when they will get around to doing that one tho.

Iron Patriot never looked good in this game. That model definitely needs an overhaul. And the problem with Widow's default, along with a lot of the original costumes, is that the hair looks bad. And I mean BAD. Faces and general design are fine for the most part.
A lot of stuff like that is bad (hair and capes) but could be fixed on a character by character basis instead of updating the models. It could be that updated hair no longer fits with the rest and decide to change it all. I hope at least they have the sense to leave some of the launch costumes that were perfectly fine alone.
Well they made the right choice for Blade's alt, so I guess it's not all awful news from NYCC.
Playable Phyla-Vell, let's go!

I prefer Cap's old default over this new one. This hyperreal style just doesn't work for this game at all. It looks bad. The lack of a cohesive art style really came back to bite them in the ass. You can make dated stuff look alright with the right art style, just ask WoW. All this "all the fabrics are wrinkled! REALISM!" shit just doesn't play, and the faces are just... ew.
They had it imo - Jean's All New costume was the sweet spot. That's what I'd have liked to see more of.

Remember when raid 3 was supposed to be in the fall? Also, after seeing all those new costumes on my desktop, gotta say I'm not excited about any of them (wtf at that Ghost Rider costume?). And why is the crafting revamp delayed till next year too?

So, after nothing for so long......i get that dumbass GR costume. Fuck that. Should have been Danny ketch blue flames at least.
To top it off Blade, who i was looking forward to, gets two awful alts instead of something that at least resembles what made him popular in the first place, which of course was Wesley snipes version. So everyone will be using the trenchcoat white shirt version just to be even close to that.
I can tell the folks with fucking intelligence was let go by this company, and the idiots remained.

Would've required a new voice actor, cause different character, and have to be Enhanced.
Personally, I'm extremely happy that he's getting his 70s afro original costume. I'm gonna rock that one all day.
And Marvel is pretty much dictating them what costumes they have to use. I know they're saying Marvel "suggests" them, but it's pretty obvious Marvel is not just "suggesting".
Licensing is a bitch. They can't use the Wesley Snipes looks.
Yes, it's Gaz's fault that Marvel sold the movie rights for a while.

Would have settled for the same voice, at least it would have been something.
That and they could fucking finish the Alejandra costume instead of saying, oh well we got ya money.
Red Arremer

The last I heard, they can't even use Danny Ketch Ghost Rider at all. More red tape from Marvel.
Also, I don't have the Alejandra costume, what's wrong with it?

She was originally was supposed to have flame hair(the skeletal rig remains if you look at her behind a wall in xaviers hub). When that costume was previewed at a con long ago, they bragged about the flame hair technology or what ever and it was a selling point for the costume. When released, it didn't have the hair, just copy and pasted flames for the other costume. When asked WTF, devs said it was coming, just a prob with it. Never happened. When asked recently again about it, they pretty much said not gonna happen.
Man, if Danny ketch can't be used...that is gonna suck.

According to QoH's post earlier:
That said, I wouldn't be surprised if they did some sort of secret release for him.
And yeah, those Skrulls look insane. That Dr. Strange/Ghost Rider/Loki one looks badass.
Looks like they're not using Rl'nnd for the X-Men based one, though, since the one in the picture doesn't have Nightcrawler's tail.
Ah yeah that sucks.
And don't hold your horses for Danny. Don't expect him at all and you'll be pleasantly surprised if they can release him.

As good as those Skrulls look, they remind me too much of the (American) football robots that Fox uses. Can't unsee the similarities.

Honestly, the female and the magician ones are the only ones I like. Kl'rt looks really weird in that cyber suit and silly helmet, and the other 2 look like they're Orcs from Warhammer 40k. And God does that Wolverine mask look dumb lol.

thor small qol
BW is so much fun I stayed on super late and got her up to level 45. I don't know about timed explosive though. Even if I pile them on and spend over half my spirit on them they don't seem to do much damage. Maybe it'll be better when I have her properly geared.
That's good, he doesn't need much.
I thought they were trying to steer people away from just building for crit/brutal. Always crit moves don't seem to be the way to do that.

I might replace spinning strike with lightning hammer in my build. Might try a ranged build, too. Been playing Thor the same way for a long time now.
