Lockjaw not being playable will be a bigger disappointment.
Lockjaw not being playable will be a bigger disappointment.
Unconfirmed playable doesn't necessarily equate to being an NPC, does it? I mean it wouldn't make sense to me to feature her that "prominently" in the image if she wasn't going to be playable. They could have easily shown Vision or just left her off. I mean I was very surprised by her inclusion at all, but it would be a real shame if Crystal, Lockjaw and a few members of her family wouldn't be playable. Since the Inhumans didn't do well on television, it would be great to maybe win them some new fans through gaming.
I definitely got the vibes that Crystal is playable. I doubt they'd put her on the big splash image if she wasn't (especially since she's not exactly a character you'd expect).
Sadly I think Nebula will be a villain/boss rather than a playable character, but I hope I'm wrong! I'd love to be able to play as her, and they could do a lot of fun moves with her.
Also desperately want:
- She-Hulk (slim chances, sadly)
- Wasp (decent enough chance, plus if costumes return they could easily do Jan, Hope, and Nadia)
- Storm (strong chance)
- Rogue (slim chances)
- Venom (strong chance, just so my boyfriend will shaddap)
That character specific combo thing is good news because it indicates that this game won't be the team super-based nonsense that ruined UA2 and we won't need full teams of four. Pull up with my Sam and Steve combo.
Crystal and Lockjaw wouldn't be there if they weren't playable. It's them, Black Bolt and Medusa if they want an Inhumans set. The X-Men are probably going to get four characters as well. I'd imagine Cyclops, Storm, and Colossus.
Yeah, Crystal and Lockjaw are probably going to be playable (as many have said if they weren't they wouldn't have appeared in that scene with all the other playable characters).
Well, maybe just Nico, she's had solo adventures. So that may work.I
And yeah, I know Cloak and Dagger go together, but they have done some solo stuff and in the Lego game they are individual characters, so it could work. Wishful thinking, maybe haha.
Yeah, I was so sad that you could fight them, but not play as them. Maybe they could do something where it's Dagger and Cloak is some of her moves? That would work. Though I would rather have them separate, but I'll take what I can get haha.

Bingo. They are saying they are not confirmed in gameplay yet not that they are npcs. They are not saying they are not playable. They even say this in the gamefaqs thread.Unconfirmed playable doesn't necessarily equate to being an NPC, does it?
Here's my initial guess on the roster:
Confirmed:
1. Captain America
2. Iron Man
3. Black Widow
4. Thor
5. Spider-Man
6. Hulk
7. Wolverine
8. Star-Lord
9. Groot
10. Rocket Raccoon
11. Scarlet Witch
12. Gamora
13. Falcon
14. Crystal (Yes I'll assume she is confirmed)
15. Nick Fury
16. Vision
Certainly Making it:
17. Captain Marvel
18. Doctor Strange
19. Black Panther
Speculation:
20. Hawkeye
21. Wasp
22. Ant-Man
23. Storm
24. Ms. Marvel
25. Iceman
26. Deadpool
27. Jean Grey
28. Daredevil
29. Iron Fist
30. Luke Cage
That and maybe a few villains as the launch roster. I don't know how they'll do DLC.
Other characters that I feel could make it:
- Psylocke, Gambit, Cyclops, Squirrel Girl, Quake, Ghost Spider, Miles Morales, Spider-Woman, War Machine, Black Bolt, Medusa, She-Hulk, Punisher, Moon Knight, Nova, Ghost Rider.
Nico would be a fun player, although the Staff of One is tricky to pull off. Are there four spells that can be reused? Is it essentially random? There's no practical way to let you choose any spell but only use once.
Crystal being unplayable is disappointing. Crystal being confirmed to be there is still fun. I assume she'll go with Lockjaw and I suspect she'll have a relevant plot role. Crystal could be a very fun player. That being said, given the choice between Storm and Crystal, it's a no-brainer (assuming Storm is in the game).

Interested in reading Daredevil? Not sure what to read next? Why not check out the Daredevil Book Club for some ideas?
I don't really expect her to make it into the main game when Spider-Man is around, but I'd love if Spider-Gwen/Ghost Spider made it in through DLC at the very least.
I don't think they would have included Crystal in the group shot at the end if she wasn't going to be playable. Inhumans are going to be in the game.
Quicksilver would be very cool, though his powers might be an issue balance-wise.
Well, I think she would have to work in a similar way as in Lego of Marvel Future fight. If I recall, they don't really have her use random spells, just have her a set number, or something like that. Plus, she can kinda use the same spell more then once. I think I read somewhere that if she says it in a different language, that works. But I may be mistaken.

And some villains since we're supposed to be seeing them. It's honestly hard to speculate when you don't have a hard number to go with for the roster size, but I kept it AROUND 30.... ish since most people are doing that, but included enough characters so that we get all of the classic characters as well as popular ones and a decent enough spread for the roster to keep it, well, interesting. This way we get a few different team bonuses too, including: The Avengers, The X-Men, Femme Fatale, The Fantastic Four, the Guardians of the Galaxy, The Defenders, etc.
