yeah, they're gonna share a general feel with their counterpart characters, maybe some basic moves will be similar, but they should have some stark contrasts. Hawkeye appears to have a sword in his trailer, Kate doesn't.

Kamala is tied to Carol and I think they've shown Captain Marvel related swag that Kamala has so I bet she'll come eventually.
Quipping wasn't something RDJ made up. After the "Demon in a Bottle" era, Tony became a much more fun and funnier character character.
His biggest trait in the comics now is always being wrong, let's be fair.
He's a less worse Beast
I just got to the Tony part of the campaign, and I think Nolan North does a great job in the cut scenes. I like his characterization there. My problem is with the battle dialogue.
To be fair I've not read an Iron man comic since Doom was in his series post Secret Wars 2. But that was some good stuff.
Actually I did read Civil War 2, and thought he was decent in that. But nothing after.
I like how Kamala and her father talk in a mix of English and mother tongue in the opening cinematic. Reminds me of Spiderverse but slightly better coz I actually understand the meaning of the words in this case.
The poster of Captain Marvel in Kamalas room is literally an in-game model.
We're getting her.
I was really worried the post launch character arcs and story updates were going to be warzone missions with some ancillary dialogue beforehand for the next couple months. I am so incredibly hyped to see the post launch story seems so fleshed out and just as well produced as the main campaign. As a primarily solo player I hope I can just keep getting quality Marvel story content out of this for years.
Well, no. One, all superheroes have quips. You're expected to do snappy banter the moment you wear a costume. I have no idea why people think that's an MCU thing when it's a superhero thing.
And no, Tony wasn't "more fun" after the Demon in a Bottle era, unless that era lasted from the late 70's to 2008. He was serious businessman until RDJ came along, and only when he put on the suit did he have a lot of witty comebacks.
Right off the top of my head I can point to OG Civil War which was 2 years before RDJ took the mantel. He had great comebacks during that.
Edit: Even in the early 90's he was quick witted in the animated series and in Spidermans' show. My memory is crap so I had to think more on this.
Aww I was hoping for captain marvel...
My guess is they'll have a bigger "cosmic" event that features her as the lead new character next to maybe 1 or 2 GotG

Civil War is arguably the most out of character Tony Stark's ever been written. If we wanna include that we can also add the Bendis era of Avengers where everyone is very much a quip machine.
But like I said, it's kind of walking a fine line. Superheroes constantly have jokes in costume.
I am loving the full game immensely so far. My only drawback right now, is that on certain missions, it just feels like you're completely bombarded with enemies/range attacks/etc. I'm getting taken down easily because it's hard to keep up with the amount of flashes for dodges. I had the same problem with the beta at times. I probably just need to get better.
Don't think there is a way sadly.
Great catch, thanks for pointing that out. Makes sense!
It's good that I subscribed to Marvel Unlimited recently, you need something to do while you wait 10+ minutes in the matchmaking screen.
Edit:
Oh lol and now the game hard crashed in the matchmaking screen.

Late October seems like a while thought she'd be at the start. Pretty cool though that you go from straight into Clints story. Seems like she has her own moves as well and I guess there will be some carry over between the two.
Nice, thanks! Im happy to see that they are going to have content designed for solo players besides the main campaign.Yep. From the PS Blog article:
Marvel’s Avengers launch War Table reveals Kate Bishop
Clint Barton’s protégé is the first post-launch Hero to join the roster.blog.playstation.com
Wait, so the Secret AIM Lab mission that they announced were actually the Raid counter part that they were teasing before?
And that game is often heralded as one of the best MPs this gen.
Never really been one to put any money down on cosmetics.
Does anyone know how pinging works? Does it only function when you're in a group with other players? I'm on ps4 if it matters.
It was overwhelmingly positive for everything before the WarTable, first 30 or so pages is everyone talking up how amazing the campaign is.
Uuugghhh, they did not add "Just regular ass subtitles" -option :( who thought this audio description only was a good idea...

There's speculation the raid was Black Panther related and they've pushed back the announcement.
Probably that woman who was in the trailer? I'm not placing her from the comics so either she's an original character or a different take on someone else.
For those of you playing:
- Are the red Verizon outfits available now? I keep checking Verizon UP but haven't seen them yet. Maybe on actual launch day?
- Is playing with friends any easier than the beta? I had a really hard time getting in with my friend to play because the menus were all super confusing.
- Are there any story related things we can do together or just open ended missions we do for multiplayer? I really liked progressing the map together with my friend in The Division 2, but i also didn't mind the missions we did in the beta. Are there more secret areas to unlock? Different variables on the missions for replayability?
I'm aware of those speculations, but the press release is saying that the Secret Labs are Raids.
So the DLC characters come with $10 character cards (battle passes)
As far as I know these:
-Don't expire
-can give you (enough?) currency towards a future character card
-give multiple skins?
Are there also free character cards for DLC characters or is it just the paid ones?

Then all that's left is to guess whether the Secret Labs were always meant to be the raid announcement or they filled in for the Black Panther spot.
Quick question, since I try to use my skins realistically in the campaign, is there a point where I get the new costume Tony was talking about to Kamala or should I use one of my others now?
They cost 1000 credits each and you earn 1300 from them.
They don't expire.
They give you multiple skins alongside nameplates, finishers, resources and the aforementioned credits.
I don't think there are free versions of them for the new characters but all 6 of the launch heroes have the cards for free so you can earn enough for the new ones from just getting through those.
I can't believe no one replied to this. Made me LOL! If only! "Iron Man Alcoholic Pack" Drunk emote, sloppy suit, and broken ass Iron Man armor all for only $15!" Haha!
It still is, no? I mean from a gameplay perspective, it is fun. Why are people annoyed at the War Table reveal? Because we got Kate instead of She Hulk or Danvers?
Post-launch content confirmed:
AIM Secret Labs that rotate every week (raids) and need endgame gear
Mega Hives are like horde mode that has you using every hero until they die (seems like solo play, yes)
Villain Sectors - this one was the most confusing. Even the press release didn't explain whether this is weekly, daily etc.
Is this like an actual tweet or report or people conjecturing? O_o I wasn't aware they held back anything due to the death and all.
They said at the beginning of the stream that they have altered the contents of the war table due to the death of Chadwick Boseman.
Does anyone else find themselves occasionally yelling "Get on the ground you metal piece of shit!" at Tony when he's decided that he'd rather just get hit in the air over and over instead of actually fighting?
No? Just me?
No? Just me?
A small correction on this one. Raids won't rotate weekly. They are only available at the weekends.
