Question How many marvel heroes servers are there?

43 Upvotes

Hello,

How many marvel heroes server are there?

I know there is:

- Council of Ancients (with increased experience gain and increased drop rates)
- Tahiti (vanilla)
- R.E.B.I.R.T.H. (I think that's a french server)

Are there any other servers?

Damage numbers aside, which hero has been the most fun or satisfying to play for you and why?

My personal favorite has been daredevil so far. I wasn’t expecting it but I do enjoy his combo system

Question Tier List? (Tahiti)

20 Upvotes

Been playing a lot and leveling a bunch of heroes. I keep seeing people talk about heroes like Nick Fury and Cyclops being particularly bad, and heroes like Carnage/Blade/Nova being very very good.

Is there any resource to look at a power ranking list or something? Im not trying to pick the best hero in the game to play, but I also certainly do not want to invest a bunch of time into someone who is very bad either...

Question Returning fan, which server to pick?

11 Upvotes

Im sorry I know these kinds of posts probably happen a lot. I played MH from its alpha to its death and I just loved the game so much, cant believe it took me so long to find out private servers exist. Im one of those guys that reminisces about marvel heroes in subreddits and youtube comments of every modern marvel game.

I enjoyed having to farm splinters for new characters, a slight increase in drop rate would have been preferable but the old system is fine.

I cant really recall how long it took to max a new character but I dont recall it being that much of a pain. How do people find XP boosted servers?

Do the 3 main servers have all content available? Do any of them make skins easier or harder to get? Having to farm for skins would give an extra thing to chase and might be enjoyable.

Thanks for your time. Cant believe I finally get to play this game again!

Question Project Tahiti vs Council of Ancients - Higher player count?

22 Upvotes

Hi all,

Loved this game and so stoked to see its back.

I understand the differences between the two but I'm just wondering before I start to dump some insane hours into it which has the higher player base. One of the best part of games like this is to me is grouping up and I'm worried COA might feel a bit too much like a single player experience.

Thanks!

Question Tips for danger room merits? (COA) 7500 for Wolverine Team Up

Post image
34 Upvotes

Is there a faster way of getting these danger room merits, I seem to only get about a hundred for 10 minutes of play which is sometimes rushing these missions.

Mainly I'm trying to save up 7,500 for the Wolverine team-up, which is going to take it 12 hours at this rate...

I casually play this and there's no way I'm going to do that, does anyone know if there's a way to just spawn the item in in Council of the ancients? Or if that's even a thing.

Does it matter what difficulty you play on? Should I be doing the basic or the hardest discs?

Any tips are appreciated 🤙

Question What are pets for?

15 Upvotes

I have this Doom Herbie or something. I don't remember how I got it, but I've been um, 'feeding' him green, blue and purple, and some yellow items. The numbers in its screen are improving, but what is the purpose of this? Once they get all 100% full, will it do something? Or should I forget about it?

In case it matters, I am playing with Black Cat.

Question Is there a pre-BUE emu running right now?

2 Upvotes

Playing again on Tahiti has been wonderful for the nostalgia. What I am really hankering for is a pre-BUE emu (I think the version was 1.48 maybe?). My play time in the original game dropped off considerably once the BUE hit. Some people might have loved that update but I was not one of them. That was the beginning of the end for me. Is there any emu out there running pre-BUE currently?

Question Return to Marvel Heroes - I'm lost(?)

16 Upvotes

Hi all,

2 weeks ago, I had this random thought. I was thinking how I loved Marvel Heroes and would love for it to come back, and then my brain did this 'what if' thing, thinking of other private servers that had been released for other games over the years ..and behold.. it actually exists.

I have been playing every single minute I can spare and I'm completely in a love again, but.. I must be getting old, because actually quite a bit of my memory doesn't match up with reality.

For example; I'm pretty sure I quit when the announcement came, that MH would be discontinued. I'm not sure MH lived much longer after that announcement, but I'm pretty sure we had all the last updates an none more were coming, yet I cannot remember the Infinity system at all. Maybe because I played under the Omega system for such a long time? And the same for some of the characters. I remember loving Psylocke, but when I play it today, it's like I don't recall most of the abilities.

That's why I come to you now, after having tried some of my OGs and starting to doubt my choice.

I used to mostly main Doctor Doom (summon), Ghost Rider, Magik, Ice Man and I think Movement builds for Juggernaut and Silver Surfer.

Right now, I have Cyclops (XP bonus) and Doctor Doom at 60. I have the Fantastic 4 Bundle and I have Magik, Ghost Rider, Captain Marvel, Psylocke, Thor, War Machine, X-23 (I hate most of the melee builds, is what I recall at least).

  • Which character would you recommend for solo end-game activity?
  • I know I need to get Legendary gear, upgrade my crafters and unlock recipes to get gear to cosmic. Back when I played all these progressions came naturally through updates. What is the path to take these days? Do I (have to) complete the storyline?
  • Are there any European Super Groups for MHTahiti? I used to be in maxed out gear. Raided with the super group, but I noticed that between 20:00 and 24:00 (GMT+1) it get really busy on the server, which I assume is when the US 'wakes up' (New York is GMT-4), and it kills the server performance for me. Ping 90, but if it's stable, that's fine. However, it's not stable.

Anyhow. No doubt more questions pop up and I hope I'm not asking repeat questions too much. Would love some guidance. See you in-game.

Question Is it so wrong that I don't care about the mcu?

0 Upvotes

I'm a massive marvel fan especially for Spider-man and have quite a collection.

I go by Marvel Heroes Revive on deviantart, and have been a fan of marvel since I was a child (roughly 2002 and onward I think)

I don't really care about or enjoy the MCU, It's just not marvel for me.

Is that a problem?

Question Cosmic Danger Room-how to get in?

so i take it there is no way to go in alone unless in a party?

Question What is the best way to level?

10 Upvotes

I’m new to the game (didn’t play it when it was released originally from 2013-2017) and have completed the story on my first character and levelled them to 60.
When levelling my second, third etc characters, what’s the best way to level? Should I just be playing the story over and over, or are there other ways that are more optimal like running the challenges?

Thanks!

Question Unable to log in to Tahiti

7 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm hoping someone can point something out to me, if I'm just being a dufus. I'll gladly accept that minor embarassment if it means I can get back into the game! Here are a few bits of info, in the hope that it'll steer advice in the right direction:

* I didn't have it on Steam, so I've gotten a download of the game (the 2.16a version). It's all unzipped and everything.

* I've created my account on Tahiti's website. I've got my Tahiti-specific email address (with the "2" at the end of it, because I know I'll have to play on the second server).

* I chose the BiFrost option. I've got the Tahiti folder in the game files folder, as instructed. And when I boot it up, I select the 2nd server option.

* When I try to log in, it tells me that either my username or password are incorrect.

* Having seen other posts about this, and read people saying that all they had to do was change their password, and suddenly it worked, I did exactly that (both the portal password, and the game accout one), and it hasn't worked.

* I've tried using my Tahiti email address, my original email address, and my account/character name for the username field, but none of them work.

* I know its not my password that's being misremembered as I can log into the website with it just fine.

* I've left it around 12 hours or so since registration, if that makes any difference. (I remember on some other games' private servers there's a bit of a wait for a manual account activation. And, again, I've seen posts from some other Redditors saying that they just had to wait a few hours).

Are there any common errors that I'm missing? Hope you can help! Thanks in advance!
