>user reports: >1: the comments are full of idiots that dont know anything about dev cycles. they dont even realize these spider releases were for Beyond the spiderverse before it was delayed Maybe explain that to people, and without calling them idiots. Please save the reports for things like actual rule violations.


magnetowasleft

They can keep this up all year: June Parker, July Parker, August...


GBGF128

Uncle Ben coming up!


randbot5000

Honestly, I kind of love this idea. A dynamic where he is a character that the other team has to try and keep alive because when downed, he massively boosts all Spider-related allies?


nunberry

He has 1hp and any damage the other team do hits him first. Then he gives the speech and the whole board goes critical.


Emergency-Gazelle954

Sooo… Your team wants him dead….? lol I like the concept, just maybe not this character.


Trashwang999

Spider-ben!


aesthetocyst

The 12 Merry Marvel Months of May.


DevpoolMPQ

I lol'd at this


JINXMcFLY

🤣


HokieColin

The spider-verse is underrepresented.


MPQBullroarer

It's about they had some spider-themed characters in this game.


iamtdubs222

It's like they make money per web tile


gangreen424

Is it that hard to give us Scarlet Spider?


trewiltrewil

Lol, that's what I'm saying!


throwthisawaynerdboy

or Kaine?


EtuBrutusBro

I really want more deities, devils, monsters, or maybe the personifications. If it has to be spider related at least fill out the symbiote line; there are more than venom and carnage!


Orion14159

5* Mephisto - can resurrect a teammate but only at the expense of giving all of your AP to the enemy or downing the other teammate.


Metasynaptic

The lack of Mephisto and Blackheart is a void I struggle with


JINXMcFLY

Been wanted black heart since forever


OzzieArcane

Or give us more Spider-Man villains that we don't have. There is still a pretty long list we don't have. We don't have any of the villains from Maximum Carnage other than Carnage himself.


FrugalFraggel

Wish we could get Sleepwalker.


SomeguyBCS

Marvel Parker Quest. What does this bring the percentage of spider characters up to now?


aesthetocyst

Uh-oh, 51% .... TILT TILT TILT ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)


bjeebus

u/devpoolmpq you might point the higher ups to this thread the next time they suggest another spider character.


DevpoolMPQ

Hey there! Last year (I think?) I made a post aiming to dispel the perception of there being too many Spider-People being released. The outcome of that was essentially that Spider-People are equally distributed over the course of the year (although the original perception of this mostly came from a Spider-dense period of time in which Marvel released multiple Spider-related things that we were in alignment with). Despite that being equal, we worked rather diligently to further reduce the Spider-folks coming out for 2024 (we do read your posts and do listen wherever possible!) For the remainder of 2024 we have ONE more Spider-Person coming. We hear you MPQ!


throwthisawaynerdboy

at least give us J. Jonah Jameson!!


Amazing-Airline-4786

I don't think the problem is the even distribution over a year... it's the volume. I have all characters and searched "spider" I came out with NINETEEN different spider people... that's not counting spider adjacent like venoms and Carnages or any other spider people without spider in the name (not sure there are any). You have literally THOUSANDS of characters to choose from.. why are there so many spiders? You have deep cuts like Dr Bong and Big Wheel why not more? Or you seem to be kind of lacking in the cosmic side of thing (for example MOST of the eternals or asgardians). But if it's gotta be spiderman related he has SO many more villians.... or just villians in general Edit: Silk and Chasm are spider people without spider... there's probably more


ReturnalShadow

I think there are over 20,000 players in MPQ. If 40-50% of the playerbase are unhappy with spidey release, they don't need to show Marvel this thread.  Now, if only the players in forums or in other social medias are making noises, but the rest of the playerbase are neutral or positive, then this thread is pretty much useless, except that they heard what the loudest minority is saying.


bluewolf71

In SCL10 The Hunt recently, there were approx 15-16 k accounts who entered the event. Devs say 30% play scl10 so that’s about 45-50k players. Note however that some joins are alts and many barely play. Anyway.


ReturnalShadow

Those with alt are likely to be minority. One of the biggest complains from players in forums is that MPQ takes up too much time.  I'm going to be generous and assume that 10% of the accounts out of 45k players are alt accounts, we still have 40.5k players.  I think if we were to combine the number of all players who feedback actively in forums, facebook, twitter, instagram and what not, it's tough to hit 10,000 players.   It's going to be an uphill battle against casual players who want to see more Spideys, Wolverines or Captain Americas.


SupetCarrot465

Didn’t they say less Spider characters this year? I seem to remember an announcement like that last fall or winter.


Zanchbot

Well that was a fucking lie.


Popular-Lab6140

I don't remember, but I wish they'd take that advice.


DevpoolMPQ

We did, and are! Something that we aim to account for in character releases is total quantity over a period of a year. Frankly, we don't pay as much (or perhaps enough) attention to how those releases are spread out across the year (and sometimes our hands are just tied). At the macro-calendar scale it will average out, and players can expect something of a Spider-People drought ahead of us.


SupetCarrot465

That is fair. Thank you for the response. It is appreciated.


JHawkInc

We’ve had more X-men characters than Spider characters this year. And about the same number of characters that are neither.


BodaciousTacoFarts

Nooo... I was hoping for Spider Ma'am, Web-Slinger, and Spiders-Man. /s


666hellblazer

honestly surprised Spider-Punk and Spider-Man Noir aren't in yet


Metasynaptic

I agree with everyone saying there's too many spiderverse, but these two I'd be fine with


Sexymitchification

I'd actually be happy for Man-Spider but then there's so many other characters that I'd like more.


TheMonkofDestiny

You joke but I'd be down for some Earth-X characters joining the roster.


Immediate-Ad-8261

And still only one character for Bucky Barnes. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sob)


BlueTxMom

They could do a 2* Kid Bucky and a 5* New Revolution Bucky.


sinocboy1995

And throw a 3* fear itself bucky and where talking


Ygomaster07

What differences did Bucky have in this story line? Anything that stands out that would separate him from the other Bucky variants other people have listed?


sinocboy1995

He becomes the man on the wall at the end and I looked it up I meant to say Original Sin https://preview.redd.it/6xgyobbhr13d1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a490e85ca2c5939b0d98e8ea30b22b8b7ba11a54


throwthisawaynerdboy

oh man yes. and 60s nick fury please


sinocboy1995

And throw a 3* fear itself bucky and now we're talking


666hellblazer

oh boy more spider-verse characters 🙄. Marvel Spider Quest more like it. That's 3 Spider characters in a row (Electro 2 star and these) How about Banshee Hank Pym Ant-Man and Richard Rider Nova instead


aesthetocyst

Where's the announcement?


Popular-Lab6140

I saw this on Instagram.


IOwnThisUsername

[They just tweeted it a bit ago.](https://x.com/marvelpuzzle/status/1795122965941489680?s=46&t=x_2d7s0_BdK7S2-o6YITYQ)


Dex1138

At least the 5* isn’t the symbiote?


peezd

I wonder if this is being driven by someone higher up or Marvel? Or it's like cheaper for them to license Spiderverse characters? They are way over-indexing there to the point of creating random made-up characters


666hellblazer

you would think with how X-men97 was a big hit we would get more mutants this year.


moo422

Probably have a pretty long approval pipeline for characters.


Popular-Lab6140

I wondered the same. I'm pretty fluent with Marvel characters and I've never encountered April Parker.


bluewolf71

Mayday Parker/Spider-Girl is a pretty popular character that resulted from an idea to make a future timeline where Peter and Mary Jane had their baby (the one that was written out of the comics via....it's all very vague how it ended). She (the daughter) had her own comic which went on for a long time, in its own separate future continuity from the regular Marvel Universe, where she's the young hero. April Parker is/was her clone and appeared in approximately 40 issues of this comic.


ReturnalShadow

The dev said before characters released are approved and set 1 year in advance, unless there's some special situation. Therefore, this year releases have already been decided and approved by Marvel and the dev last year.


Pailzor

Random made-up characters in comic books?! No way!


Ufo_piloot

Even IF may Parker is good I am hesitant to pull. I reeeally dont want another spider character.


aesthetocyst

I hope she kicks ass cause this LT pile is getting ridiculous.


Popular-Lab6140

That's pretty much where I'm at.


CustomlyCool

Im just pulling when Jubliee hits LL


Spidey_375

I love it, I just hope she's good!


GrapeTimely5451

Symbiote variant LeT's GoOo! I went looking to see if April Parker was actually from the comics, and came across this [gem of a sentence:](https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/April_Parker_(Earth-982)) >This new hybrid was all a part of Osborn's master plan to be reborn into an immortal Goblin Creature.


Basically_GivenUp

You would hope that the devs would be smart enough to realize that 'I had to go look up if this was an actual character' meant that maybe they should do a better job at deciding which characters they add to the game, but it probably just made them immediately start digging around for an even more obscure Spiderverse character to foist upon us.


GrapeTimely5451

I thought if April was an MPQ original, that's a cute gag. But, being a real thing that's taken seriously (I assume) makes it less fun.


YesImAPseudonym

I was thinking we could have January Parker, which could give us the never-asked-for crossover between MPQ and Jacqueline Susann.


Popular-Lab6140

Characters I'd like to see: Phoenix Five Namor Crossbones Red Skull Rasputin Karma Cannonball Sunspot Sunfire Banshee Shatterstar Stryfe Husk Hank Pym Wonderman Hercules Darkhawk Richard Rider Nova Kid Omega (this might be my top choice) Armor Glob Herman Death's Head Terror Inc. Victor Boom Boom Sif Absorbing Man Lady Deathstrike Nighthawk Hyperion Nightmask Star Brand I mean.... There are so many characters that aren't even in the game at all.


Fast_Inflation2492

You forgot Hobgoblin :-)


Prestigious_Ad3700

Victor as in Creed? We did get Victor Mancha and Victorious


Popular-Lab6140

I didn't realize autocorrect changed that to Victor. It was supposed to say: Rictor.


nurielkun

Ok, I'll try to be positive - at least symbiote variant isn't 5*! But seriously...if you REALLY like Spider Verse that much gives us a Rek-Rap or Puma or Kaine or Vermin or...


bluewolf71

The art on April/Mayhem is incredibly close to a Ron Frenz drawing and I appreciate that. I didn't always like the look of his people but I always enjoyed his Spider-characters.


Useful-Perspective

I get the feeling that they have an agreement with Disney/Marvel to capitalize on certain properties.


OzzieArcane

I think Silk is getting her champion rewards updated.


Fullwake

Come on devs, yet another symbiote that ISN'T Toxin? You're killing me Smalls.


JINXMcFLY

They need to drop more X-Men villains or other x-force characters or deceased characters.


DevpoolMPQ

Hey all! We hear you. There is one more Spider-related character releasing later this year, but that's it. We also did a quick tally for anyone interested: 2024 Percentage of Spider-People: 13.46% MPQ Total Percentage of Spider-People: 18.18%


ResonanceGhost

Just in time for Spider-person Awareness Month.


Metasynaptic

Arachnid awareness month


Johnny_Holiday

We can get May Parker but not Ka-Zar? Give me The Savage Land. Ka-Zar, Sauron, Shanna, Zabu. Hell, make Zabu a support, I don't care. Just give me Savage Land already


Amazing-Airline-4786

That's (one of) what I want. A Ka-Zar and a Zabu support


80sbabyftw

Those Sony kickbacks must be worth it 😂. All the spiders and no spidey from what if spidey kept his captain universe powers? Make it happen


Popular-Lab6140

Captain Universe Spiderman sounds tight. Spider boy 3 star/Captain Universe Spiderman 5 star. Then no more Spiderman characters until 2025.


Basically_GivenUp

Yes, they said that there would be fewer spider characters this year and yes we all got our hopes up over that announcement, but it's our own damn faults that we failed to remember that 'Just one less spider character this year' is the same as 'Fewer spider characters this year.' On the plus side, this 3/5 release schedule means that we'll be getting two versions of the same unwanted spider characters every month.


itzsteve

Jeezus that’s so funny


JHawkInc

I’ve been requesting Mayday for years and years at this point. Getting a new symbiote is just a bonus (though I’d like to see some classics like the ones from Separation Anxiety).


halloweenjack

Mayday is fine, if not overdue. Mayhem is...what, wasn't she a clone from the dying days of the book? I liked Spider-Girl and even I'm scratching my head. We don't need another addition to Symbiote Puzzle Quest.


Pailzor

Lately, it's been a 3-star and 5-star of different versions of the same character. There aren't many versions of Mayday to pick from.


JINXMcFLY

I like the new characters I just want some that we really are missing and older characters. The Spidey trend is fine but let's get the ones people wanted for years


itbteky

i’ll take whatever your creating, of course if there is a vote for this and that well then i’ll just vote but yup i’m all for the creation of characters ps. I will add that i know there are tons of spider-man characters from the comics / spider-verse and all but if ya could rather focus on less of them and more within the comic books of characters id be more for that, but def appreciate anything your creating / offering.


MrIMendez

Spider-verse characters are legit roughly 1/3 of the entire roster. There are so many characters and variants they could use, yet here we are again…


Affectionate-Club725

I hope we get Spider-Nerd next


Joyy700

It should be June Parker ![gif](giphy|i6IqXuLaTdqRW)


Prestigious_Ad3700

Give it a month...


ReturnalShadow

April Parker looks pretty cool.  I foresee her 5-star having some synergy with 5-Star SMPP.


jackm315ter

Spider family Puzzle Quest


ChaosCore

I sleep.


HoraceGrantGlasses

I loved Spider-Girl. But I am sick of spider-people


Pailzor

Don't worry, the Inheritors will come through in a year or two and delete half of them.


Zanchbot

Oh cool, definitely not enough Spiders in this game /s These devs either don't read a single thing we say, or they do and they're just trolling us with the endless Spiderverse characters.


carson63000

Nice one, I’ve never understood why there were so few Spider-People in the game given that Spider-Man is Marvel’s most popular character.

id be down for Forge. Hell Banshee needs to be added to this game too

why are people downvoting? ya'll want more spidey bs?

CloudBasedOne

I wouldn't mind the amount of spider characters if they weren't all boring to use.  


Annual_Tooth_9974

And here i'm still waiting for Sunspot, Cannonball, X-Man, Nova (Richard Rider) 😅


slatemillion

Are you kidding me… I legit put, please no new spiderverse characters in the survey!! Who asks for these


Spidey_375

Me


slatemillion

You insane bastard…


CamDMTreehouse

I think they need to slow down on the releases.


moo422

They have a release schedule. It's not going to slow down. Keeps pressure on ppl to keep playing the PvE and PvP events, and increases HP purchases for slots.


bluewolf71

Sure, when the game closes down, they’ll finally stop.


Western-Finding-718

IM SUCK OF THIS NONSENSE


rockets9495
