Marvel's MMO, Info available!

[Tank]

Marvel Universe, the upcoming massively-multiplayer role-playing game based on the comics publisher's roster of heroes and villains, will be free-to-play. That and many more details - the first for the game![/URL] - have been provided by PC Gamer.

Most important aside from the fact it'll be free-to-play (meaning it'll charge you for upgrades and/or perks along the way) is news you'll actually be able to take control of existing Marvel characters, like Iron Man, Captain America and Thor.

The game's villain is Dr. Doom, it's beign written by Brian Michael Bendis and is firmly entrenched within canon, meaning there'll be no super-surprising shenanigans done story-wise.
You can read plenty more of the nitty-gritty stuff at the link below.

first off it's gonna be F2P!

WIN!
but playing as signature characters. not so much win...

hope they include proper character creation

the lack of character creation confirmation has me worried

a proper super hero mmog to take on coh/v would be win!

and Marvel's uni is perfect for it.

This could really be a good game if done right or the exact opposite...

The F2P is a bit worrying though. I hope you dont have to buy items to level up quicker etc..
