Marvel Heroes 2015 1.44 Patch Notes

All thirteen episodes of Marvel's Daredevil, starring Charlie Cox, hit Netflix just days ago so Marvel Heroes 2016 is celebrating with a host of things. Improvements to the character, extra loot from his enemies... Check out everything below, as well as find out about this weeks Odin's Bounty.

DAREDEVIL CELEBRATION!

In honor of Daredevil's Netflix series, we've made a few nice changes to Daredevil in this week's patch that should get him back on the streets and kicking butt (notes on those below). In addition to that, we're trying out a few other ways to celebrate his new TV series!

• Daredevil will receive +50% bonus XP until the next patch!
• Kingpin in all Daily Terminals will drop extra loot
• Elektra and Bullseye in Midtown Manhattan will drop extra loot

ODIN'S BOUNTY

• Starting at 12:01AM PDT on 4/11, we'll be holding an Odin's Bounty loot rotation!
• The schedule will be posted soon, and for multiple time zones!

GENOSHA HUB - HAMMER BAY

• Hammer Bay has received an update. The Cosmic Architects have forced the NPCs to reshuffle themselves so the Heroes don't have to stand so close to each other. No one wants to get too close to Venom.
• The maximum population for Hammer Bay has been reduced to prevent overcrowding. The Genosha Liberation Force was pleased to see so many willing volunteers to throw at Onslaught's… onslaught… but honestly you guys were really over-crowding them.
• The Enchanter decided to see why everyone in Asgard was clamoring about Hammer Bay. He brought along an extra S.T.A.S.H. vault.

COMMENDATIONS

• The amount of Hero and Protector Commendations gained from the Man-Ape One Shot and the Daily Shared Quests has been increased.
• We'll be adding additional methods to gain Hero and Protector Commendations outside of raids in the coming days.

INFLUENCE FOR GENOSHA LIBERATION FORCE

• All players who logged in during the previous week have had their G.L.F. influence set to 200. This will not affect the weekly cap, although the initial login will display 200/200.
• Influence will no longer increment when relogging.
• Known Issue: Influence gains will sometimes not be displayed until a hero changes regions.
• Known Issue: You must gain some amount of Influence for the display to reflect your weekly amount correctly.

POWERS FLAVOR / NAME CHANGES

• Silver Surfer's Supernova is now called Singularity.
• Nova's Supernova will be renamed Gravimetric Surge.
