Missions can be completed with levels of success though. Failure to complete all objectives in a mission will result in lower prestige which affects your ability to recruit more heroes into your team. We know there'll be a variety of powers to be used in the game, but what about weapons, armor, and items. That s not to say the plot wouldn t give a particular item to a character, but heroes like to win under their own steam. We feel that it isn t appropriate for super-heroes to be shuffling through their backpacks in the middle of combat.
Heroes are about big powers and costumes and items specific to particular individuals.
Yes, we intend to ship our entire editor and scripting language that will allow users to create their own missions using the same tools that we do. If I can t find somebody who s made their own Muppet superhero missions after we shipped, I ll view at as a personal failure. You ll be able to build your own heroes and make your own missions, to varying degrees depending on how much time you want to dedicate to the task. They will ship, though I won t commit to a date.
