Live Chat Q&A: 3/17

[Commander-Rex]

That picture is a oversimplification of events but yes

[Jester_II]

I have a few questions

1 w.i.t.c.h is an interesting case because the animation is not Disney but the comic was published as “Disney Italia” and the game is under the name of Disney

so I am asking if characters from this franchise can join the game?

2 why TS4 and ralph 2 had their characters for the premiere of the movie and new movies get their characters after x months
(was it just Disney marketing)?

3 will riley and bing bong join the game (because bing bong “is dead” and riley is human and the movie focuses on emotions)

[Spark]

Does the team like Rickrolls?

[Champion_David]

@Miguel_DLXXV

Intersting ! Can we know which hero has the record of the longest development ?

Cough Cough

Kim Possible screams for three years.

@DoubleBeans

Unfortunately, no, she will not be in Disney Heroes. Sorry, we’d love to have her too.

Ah well. It is what it is.

(Can’t complain too much when we got Treasure Planet characters.)

[Scarce]

I just realized that lol

[CodeMore6]

Well I am sitting back now…

[Spicyboi]

If Edna is added, I bet one of her friendships will be Jack-Jack
Bonus points if you know why

[Spark]

Auntie Edna

[Speen]

(not sure if this is looked down upon but, bumping this)

[CodeMore6]

Oh i see why…

[Victory_1515]

Are there any plans to add Disney junior’s characters?
For example, Sofia the first and Elena of Avalor.

[DoubleBeans]

I see this question a lot! The answer to this is far less interesting than I think players think. We considered adding him very early on but we moved in a different direction. His enum stayed in the game much longer than we considered him. I hope this answers your question!

[Leaf]

@Wave9Nut

What character do you relate to the most? In anything.

Steven from Steven Universe, probably

[Witcheress]

@Leaf

To be honest, it’s harder to kit the women from the older Disney movies and that’s why you don’t see as many of them in the game. We’re still trying! But it takes awhile to come up with something compelling for a battle game. It’s much easier to kit Disney women from the more contemporary movies.

I hope you figure it out, there have been lots of nice concepts for the classic females on the forums in the past. And thanks for answering our questions.

[Kira]

Hehe, just thought I ask for fun Leaf, but if it is completely fair if you can’t choose between dogs and cats :-).

@Leaf In terms of women characters that are from the older movies I don’t think they have to necessarily be harder to make kit wise, it is mostly about having them less attack focused and instead more Support and Charm focused for example :-).

Most people in the Heroes part of the Q&A said that they wanted Support characters, and so I decided to make this poll in order to give some kind of sample to you at PerBlue in terms of what kind of Support sub-type we want to see the most, and so far Cleanse(Team Deuff Removal) is leading.

[Myeong]

I actually thought that was Rickroll link and clicked on it… I’m actually disappointed that it wasn’t.

[Filadae_Djaq]

So will Lumiere ever be added to the game?

[Commander-Rex]

My disappointment is immeasurable. And my day is ruined.

[CommanderJack]

@Champion_David

I know it is Polaris’ job to manage us (And they do a great job at it.), but do any of you just come on randomly to stalk the forums?

All the time…

[Polaris]

@Myeong

Did you ever watch Cutthroat Kitchen?

Nope, but I’ll look it up!

@Kira

Q: After the Live Q&A is over will you Polaris update the Roadmap on Trello? :-).
It technically should have been updated this Monday, but we had the Q&A coming I thought we could wait until after it in case we get to know more that could be included in the Roadmap on Trello, and yeah no worries if you just forgot Polaris.

I don’t have any updates for it this week! We’re in a QA cycle right now but I’ll have changes next time!
