You Can Keep Your Agents-Only Heroes!

Finally a release worth talking about! After about a month of gimmicky Mystery Boxes and Caption Contests we get to finally play as characters that we spent our hard-earned gold on.

About time, I say! Can't wait to blast off as Iron Man MKI again!

In other recent news, yes, Thanos was released, and yes, it's another Mystery Box, this time cleverly referred to as an "Infinity Box". No news so far if there'll be a mission, but it sure would be fun to play as movie Loki and battle Thanos, (hint hint).

They also give a 10% increase to XP if you purchase gold. Well, I guess I'm eligible so seems like I'll be getting more XP when I log in again. The reason I haven't been in the game is because my computer is really, really, old. Also, all the friends I used to play with don't play anymore, so it's hard to find motivation. However, I'll still be here to finish up my What-If series properly with those two bonuses I've been teasing, as well as to give my opinions on newly released content of interest.

Well, with a tied poll, it looks like its up to me to decide between purchasing gold or becoming a member. And I have reached a decision.

I will be purchasing gold to get Ends of the Earth Spiderman and, (if possible) Spiderman Noir. My reasons are thus:

• I haven't maxed out all my current heroes yet, and that was one of the things I wanted to do before I became a member.

• My computer doesn't let me play on SHSO anymore because it's so slow, meaning I have to play the game on someone else's laptop. This is more complicated, but it's the only way for me to play the game until I get a new computer. So it makes more sense to purchase gold because I won't be able to take full advantage of the rewards of being a member, such as collecting my daily dosage of gold by logging in and spinning the wheel.

It's mostly these two reasons. Now it's just up to deciding how to purchase the gold I need.

SHSO offers many different packages, and last time what I did I purchased a ten dollar one and a twenty dollar one, giving me around 3,500 gold and I spent 30 dollars.

Well, that's my advice. Never go with the pricey $50, $90 and $150 ones, (and let's be honest; those are their REAL prices. $149.95 is pretty much $150).

If you want a lot of gold, become a member. There are excellent reasons why and I explain it all in one of my first posts, How I Earned Gold which you can see here, (It's at the end of the post. But read through the whole thing if you haven't, because what I say still applies)!

Anyway, I think I'll get the $20 gold package which will give me enough to buy the two Spider-Man repaints I want and that should be fine. When I get a new computer I promise to finally give in and become a member again, but until I do I don't think it would be the right choice.

By the way, at first I thought Ends of the Earth Spiderman was the final version of Iron Spider. But he isn't, which means they still need to release Iron Spider!

And where is that Mysterio mission?!?!

Grumble, grumble...
