Marvel Super Hero Squad Online -- Ground Zero

[Charles LePage]

This is very much sad and disappointing news, but everything ends. And we at least have till the end of the year to play. And yes, we should plan multiple get togethers in the game between now and then.

I will do my best to be online the last seconds it is online.

Well the fractal hackers will have a field day buying all the non-agent gold badges; good luck to them reaching level 40 without access to XP potions. In the meantime I am buying select gold badges for my non-agent account; too bad the Midas bundle is not discounted, neither are sidekicks.

I wish someone can find a way to make the game playable offline; after all, the game files will remain on our hard drives or SSDs and I don't mind not getting up on the survival leader boards, I'll just play for myself.

I just discovered I let my membership lapse, and now there's no way to become one again.

What about this thread? If CBR's not removing it, I'm staying here. Maybe we can talk about other Marvel Games, like Marvel Heroes, Contest of Champions, Ultimate Alliance, Spider-Man PS4, etc... Or maybe even movies and comics...

Always sad to see a game go.

While I haven't played the game in years, (I even had to create a new CBR account today to post because of the old reset where accounts had to be remade) I had such a good time with everyone I met because of this game. So many good memories. So many awesome tornaments. As simple a game as it is, this game and the community that grew from it helped me through some tough times. It will be missed.

I'll for sure be popping in game every once in a while before the servers go down. Get the last few bits of SHSO before it's gone.
I still have a lot of gold and fractals from the last time I played. May as well use them up now

Thanks for so good memories,heroes,and missions.
I will miss you.

P.S This may be a Off-topic but: Is there any way to refund money which was wasted on this game?
Thanks.

With this coming so soon after Avengers Alliance closed, news of this game closing too is just... devastating. I feel absolutely gutted. With these seemingly popular Marvel games closing, its really difficult to try and get involved in another. I mean, Marvel Heroes looks like good fun, but a year from now we could be getting another "Well its time for us to concentrate on other projects. Thanks for everything" messages. I really believed that this game would go for maybe another couple years, since this is a kids friendly game and more and more kids are getting into comics with all the success of the movies and tv shows. My son, who is now 8 (almost 9) has been playing this game since he was 3. He learned to use a computer because of this game. He learned about pretty much all the Marvel heroes from this game. I imagine many other kids had similar experiences. For me, it was a way to connect with my kids and it was honestly stress relief. Picking a character like Wolverine or Hulk and just smashing the crap out of robots was very satisfying.

Considering we already download the files onto our computers as it is, it would be fantastic if they gave us a downloadable version so we could still play it offline. Sure there wouldn't be any other heroes walking around the town (or maybe program in random characters automatically doing things), give us access to all the different zones, Halloween and Christmas too. Make it cost like $100, same as a year long membership and its yours to play forever.

I don't consider any of the money I spent on SHSO Online wasted. I probably should, to some degree, but I don't.

That's two votes for this suggestion. I would add making it networkable, so that it can be played in a family network so that the zones wouldn't look so deserted.

I know that the game is going to the end and so does the wiki, But I'm enjoying completing it.

[Irritating Hurricane Ferret]

Anyone know if they are gonna add the retired heroes to the shop and give us all membership rights before the game closes?

Listen up everyone, what if we started a petition on ''change.org''? I know that most of the times they don't really change nothing, but we can at least try to take a shot, especially since we don't have nothing left.

If anyone here has a twitter account, try tweeting ''BillRosemann'', he's the Creative Director of Marvel Games, and he has proven to take a lot of interesting in supporting the fans. He added the Marvel Ultimate Alliance DLC (since the re-releases came without them) after the fans (*cough *cough me and other guy) started a petition. When we got around 700 signatures (in 2 days) they confirmed the addition of the DLC to the game.

Here's the link:
https://www.change.org/p/marvel-give...iance-remaster

This is pretty much our last shot at this point. Since I doubt Gaz would step back on their decision, or anyone would buy the game to continue it.


P.S. Anyone here knows exactly why they're shutting down? Small number of people working on it? The code it runs in? Price to keep the servers up?

The Cap nails it for me. SHSO was the first computer game I actually played 'with' my boy Helmer, playing on different computers as two distinct characters inhabiting a world together, and it was - and still is - a great bonding experience. I'm not sure what will replace it at the moment. I'm dubious about investing in Marvel Heroes for the exact same reasons as Cap, that sense that at any moment the plug could be pulled; and in any case I think the game is intended for 13-year-olds and up so I think Helmer - at 9 going on 10 - is just a little young still. That was the great thing about SHSO (and still is until January), it was fun for kids and adults both. You never knew if you were in a mission with a 6-year old or a 60-year old (although you would have your suspicions...).

I have been running SHSO on two different Win 10 laptops with no problem. One thing you might want to try changing up is your unity web player. The version I'm using is 4.5.5f1. My firefox version is 47.0.1.

OK, well that's good to know that there's no reason why I shouldn't be able to play SHSO on my new laptop. I'll keep trying, it would be fun to play the game on this computer since we actually bought it because it had good spec for gaming!
