Looks like another month to wait (March 18th) until they release Hawkeye and the next generation update.
So they announced an announcement of something that was 2 months away. Okay. They really are dragging this stuff out
I think they'll hold off on that until after Spider-Man gets added to the PS version of the game, which incidentally I bet Square is hating having had to commit to at this point. Honestly I think they should have waited for what I assume would be the meatier Black Panther or Captain Marvel expansions with new villains (Klaw and the Kree) for the next gen version. Two operations that STILL focus on AIM after months of waiting is just tiresome.

If they want to salvage this game they might choose to go the Final Fantasy XIV route and take the thing back to formula, that extends to making the game a massive online multiplayer, with the added bonus of creating your own character.

Looks like I'll have to move past gameplay footage
...Christ no. The multiplayer aspect is what has killed this game in trying to force it on top of the storyline in so many awkward ways and with a system that just doesn’t work for Marvel characters. And really the ONLY area of Marvel that could possibly suit an MMO like that is probably the X-Men, because that area allows for original characters as new mutants. Avengers pretty much couldn’t do that. There’s the Inhumans of course but then it would be an Inhumans game featuring the Avengers and we all know how popular the Inhumans are these days thanks to Ike Perlmutter...
id like a musou title for marvel i think it'd work well
for this game if it is around long enough to get Vision i think i'd try and get back into it
Mutants are far more common than random meta humans though. Plus there would be an expectation with an Avengers game that you could actually play as the recognised Avengers. Granted that would probably also be the case with the X-Men but with an entire school of upcoming characters that makes an easier setup for original characters (case in point X-Men: Destiny). With Avengers you’re either looking at Inhumans (no longer popular thanks to the ABC show outside Ms Marvel - who will get retconned into having Carol’s origins in the MCU anyway) or Young Avengers (who would just be younger carbon copies of the actual characters).
Destiny 2 works because it doesn’t have established expectations for the characters you play as. That system was never going to work for the Avengers.
So? Its a videogame. As long as you can play as recognizable Avengers, I dont see the problem with allowing users to create their own. He suggested revamping this game, not creating a brand new one. A revamp would include every existing character as well as those planned with the flexibility of a character creator.
FYI people expect to play X-men in an X-men game as well. The last console X-men game released didnt allow for that and it flopped. Having a character creator would have at least gotten around that as people could make any character that wasnt playable (ala DC Universe Online)

CD is determined to kill this game. They just made it harder for newcomers to jump aboard which is a major turnoff for anyone that was holding off to get this till the next gen versions came out
