Devs need to stop trying to control the players and take control of their game.
That’s an extraordinary level of consensus. Even such subjects as “Do you like air?” will often have some level of disagreement.
Maybe start a new account and “buy HP” for healthpacks, shields, covers etc instead. Yawn!
Obviously Phantron hasn’t found the thread yet.
They way I see this is that, this change wouldn’t be so horrible IF THERE WERE ANY OTHER 2* P/BK CHARACTERS THAT DIDN’T SUCK ASS. Any player transitioning from 2*->3* has literally no other character to use to synergize with a G/R character. The only exception is MNMags+Cstorm combo. Ares? Thor? Wolvie? You need OBW since every other off-color 2* sucks ass. There are too many goddam G/R characters it’s ridiculous. And then they go and make She-Hulk G/R too, when she could have been R/P/Bl. But for some unknown reason they made her steal/heal green which makes no sense. CAN WE GET SOME GOOD NON-G/R CHARACTERS? Too bad they’re never going to make another 2* since that doesn’t get them money. The 2*s seriously need another usable character on the off-colors.
This change won’t actually affect me at all. I don’t prologue heal any more, and I don’t use a healer in my main team, so all I do at the moment is use my main 5-6 characters until they’re nearly dead, and then shield/leave the game until the health packs regenerate. For me, nothing really changes. That doesn’t stop this being a ridiculous idea that I will never support.
I’ve bought stupid boosts in a hurry by mistake (at least not the 500 HP ones); have never bought a health pack even when desperate, never will.
If anything, I will be now even more conservative in my play and try to minimize incoming damage; join tourneys later and use a single 3 h shield closer to the end; abuse Patchneto to hell and back despite wanting to try out various combinations; NOT buy lazy Daken covers yet despite being ready to do so back in Season 2; cry for my teammates and numerous other 2* players that are going to be severely limited in their playtime by D3.
I distinctly remember them saying that every type of player was welcome; one that invested money and one that invested time. Another sweet lie?
What’s the true reason for a change like that? Can’t be ‘for diversity’s sake’, or else even the most incompetent designer would have improved Moonstone and mHawkeye’s skills eons ago.
I’d be ok with these changes if non-downed heroes are automatically healed a percentage of their total health at the end of every fight.
Otherwise this really does feel like a cash grab. You can buy health packs to win. You’ll feel like you need health packs to be competitive. And worst of all, you need health packs to play the game for any sustained period.
I refuse to spend hero points on health packs. Full stop. I encourage everyone else to do the same.
They made that one a lie as soon as they tweaked the PVE refresh time to 2.5 hours - it’s not much of a hassle if you’re mobile but it’s super inconvenient for most steam users*?
*It’s installed on my lappy so I can sneak games in now and then. But no pooptime games for me 
pooptime games are the best cos you’re sitting there longer when a match drags on, increasing your chances of developing piles. LOL
Does anyone think this has anything to do with the recent sentry exploit? Thanks guys!!
If you’re spending a ton on boosts and shields for the sentry exploit then you’ll probably spring for the health packs too 
.
As for me it’ll be me buying less health packs. I stopped buying them for PvE when they put in lvl 395 scaling, i’ll stop full stop when this change goes in. It pisses me off and my wallet will tell them so.
You were reading the full details. It amazes me that you rather choose to cover your eyes and pretend there is anything more.
Also you’re welcome to use your cupcakes after the A team died just don’t start another thread complaining you lost 150 points in the half hour you played the next game with them and and another 350 15 minutes later when the other players happily ate it for breakfast.
You know there are quite many players with roster starting a full page of 120+ full covered characters, and still taking the pain of healing up as using more than the 2-3 best would make them lose bigtime. Nothing this far implied it will change.
For all of u running obw team should gather as much as season point u can get now.
All I see now is blood bath recruitment by the end of season 3 for top 100 spot
I will just build double or triple the characters I do like to play with.
Never bought a health pack & I ain’t starting anytime soon.
Alright, who’s the one moron?
I PERSONALLY WILL NOT EVER BUY A HEALTH PACK!!!
I think the best way to make money is for D3 to have health packs regeneration turned off and to have all iso and hero points to be taken away, and iso and hero points removed from prizes both individually and alliance. then D3 will have a so much of a money grab that they won’t know what to do with it. if you are not willing to pay to win, you are not the players they want on their game anywhoo.
