What’s the deal with character buffs then?

When it was announced that Luke Cage and Red Hulk we’re getting buffed, majority of the community were really happy and pleased.

Since then though it’s all gone quiet, I think we all had optimism that it would be a monthly thing or 2 monthly to get all the out of date characters upto speed with recents.

It’s quite disappointing that nothing has been mentioned since then though, I mean you could come out with a list of champs your going to do the same process with, get us all on board with it.

Look at how crazy some champs are now, and then Iron Man just has regen... I mean he can virtually do anything with his suit and in game he only has a little regen.

Let us know who else is on the horizon for a buff and some sort of estimated time scale, as it was really appreciated the first time around!

i agree with you i think that at the beginning of the year or just before it Kabam should send a list out to the forums and then to our in game mail and have it say Spider Gwen and Khamala Khan will be getting a buff in January and so on i guarantee the community would be happy

I agree that this would be nice. But apparently fixing a garbage champ is difficult and time consuming. Since the majority of champs are pure useless garbage it is a pretty big task for them. That along with the many many bugs and problems in the game probably keeps the game team busy. Buffing a couple of the numerous garbage champs might be lower priority. They probably simply don't have time.

This needs to be seen by more people and kabam should actuall do something rather than ignore us!

Hey Everybody,

Really excited to see that you guys are happy with the recent adjustments that we've made, and with the Beta test. Now, I have a few things I want to mention about the continued buffs coming to some underperforming Champions, and Betas.

First, not every update to Champs will come with a Beta test. While we do want to Beta test more impactful or drastic changes for Champions, that won't always be the case.

Now, we do want to continue to use the Beta system to test other changes to Champions, but there are currently some bugs with the Beta system that are keeping us from doing any further Tests at this time. So, before we can take a crack at any more Champion Beta Tests, we have to make sure we get these Beta System bugs ironed out!

We want to get back to these as soon as we can as well, but right now, I don't have any more information on timelines or which Champions we're looking at to share.

Thanks for direcly answering the question instead of some sort of vague and cryptic thing

Why do updates to old champs take so long ? In most cases no new animations would be added, would be nice to just see some stuns and debuffs added to special attacks to make some of these old clunkers usable beyond arena. They never get any love but have been heavily forced into our 5* rosters.

DarkestDestroyer

Yeah thanks @Kabam Miike for the answer!

It’s even better to know that just because there might not be a beta, some old champs can still get a buff at any time 👍

GroundedWisdom

There will no doubt be more. Probably not every month like people were wishing for.

I’m confused - does this mean that updates are happening but they can’t be part of the beta process, or that the updates can’t happen until the beta system is back up and running?

I hope the bugs in the Beta testing program are not the thing delaying champ updates. Just scrap the Beta if that is the case and proceed with the improvements.
