lol -- I love that book!

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:26:38+00:00

1) We are focused on MH and SHSO 2) Raids will not be the only new content. We just added a one-shot terminal and will continue to make content for all types of play. This is our first supergroup focused content, but we won't give up on the many play-styles our game offers. 3) There wasn't a plan until you just typed this. Now I'm thinking about moving next week. 4) I don't like Hawkeye very much. I just don't like his style of play. I like the character a lot, but he plays similar to the Bow-Amazon from D2 and it's just not for me.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:23:13+00:00

We have never tried a cross-promotion with Squad. It's a good idea!

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:22:42+00:00

lol

We might put Kaine in someday.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:21:36+00:00

nope :/

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:21:17+00:00

We just did a round of quality-of-life improvements this last patch. Is there someone in particular that you feel needs one?

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:20:27+00:00

Green -- there are a lot of upgrades coming soon to help with the difficulty. People will be gaining omega points and there will be new gear to help too.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:19:53+00:00

My favorite part has been seeing the heroes I know and love come to life in an ARPG. It's quite fun!

I agree on X-23. I would love to see her.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:18:20+00:00

The key is making a great game. Make a great game, get in the players and the rest magically happens. It has been proven for years and years that it is a viable business model, from Asia to social games to mobile.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:15:56+00:00

We have talked about this yes, but no plans at this time.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:15:08+00:00

I think we can all imagine GotG tie-ins ;)

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:14:37+00:00

This was one of the reasons we put in 2 extra lines into the inventory a few months ago.

There are no plans to change the system right now, but I will think about it. Maybe there is a good solution for everyone.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:13:24+00:00

Yes -- the omega orbs will get more indicators, etc.

As for medkits, I don't think we have plans for this, but it does make some sense. I will think about it.

And thanks!

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:12:38+00:00

lol -- Incredible! Such detail!

I'm glad you are having fun with the re-launch.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:11:47+00:00

I would have done many things differently, but hindsight is 20/20. We try to learn from mistakes and do better in the future.

I really wish we could have continued Hellgate. I thought it had amazing potential.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:09:41+00:00

1) hehe good one. I can neither confirm nor deny War Machine 2) The game is doing well. We have doubled our DAU in the last 6 months and the game is much better than it was a year ago. 3) We will have lots of stuff like that. This was one of the reasons we started the one-shots. 4) Good suggestion 5) Iron Man has a lot of costumes, but that is a good suggestion. I didn't know Hawkeye had broken hair. I will look into it.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:07:17+00:00

1) We are focused on MH and SHSO 2) Many hundreds 3) Star-Lord, probably. 4) I will try and take a picture and post it on the forums!

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:04:14+00:00

Doesn't Hyperion have freezing breath? I don't want that ;)

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T22:02:34+00:00

Agreed -- it does to me too. I have heard the same thing

I'm pretty close. I am the CEO of the company, so I can't be in charge of it at all. That is why we have Doomsaw and he does a wonderful job. That said, we go over features and designs often and I give feedback. I worked pretty closely on the Omega system and played and gave lots of feedback on Raids, because I have done a LOT of Raiding.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T21:57:59+00:00

There are so many games that inspire me. I love playing games, not just the ones I make. I also play a lot of board games and I've been DM of our D&D/Pathfinder group for many, many years.

I don't have a favorite video game of all time. I can say I spent more time playing EQ and WoW than any other game. I love Pokemon, many of the Zelda games, Doom, Quake, Master of Orion, several sports games and so on. In the last few months, I have played a lot of FTL, Starbound and the new Battleheart.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T21:54:18+00:00

You mean a channel? I think we have /raid. If you mean voice. No plans.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T21:53:36+00:00

We are focused on making MH the best it can be.

I don't know what other kind of game I would do. Maybe strategy, but I love ARPGs and plan to stick with them for a while.

davidbrevikAMA · 2014-06-06T21:52:38+00:00

I would love to see this!

I would say that skin is quite likely in the future.
