Fixed an issue where switching from a Proficiency Deluxe Avatar back to the standard Avatar required a re-login to take effect.
Resolved an issue where other players viewing a career profile would not immediately see the latest scores added after reaching maximum proficiency with a hero. A re-login was required for the changes to take effect.
Corrected the blocklist full notification, which mistakenly stated that the friends list was full.
Maps and Modes
Fixed several terrain issues that could cause characters to become stuck or clip into strange areas.
Resolved various problems with broken collisions, floating objects, etc.
Addressed multiple map sound effect issues.
Heroes
- Loki's Disappearing ActFixed an issue where Loki's UI would vanish after he transformed. The God of Mischief can now keep his tricks visible!
- Human Torch's Meteor MishapResolved a glitch where the Human Torch's Flaming Meteor ability could sometimes trap hit enemies inside walls. Now, foes will feel the burn, not the barrier!
- Persistent Pyro-PrisonFixed an issue that the Human Torch's Pyro-Prison wouldn't promptly disappear upon his defeat. No more lingering flames!
- Loki's Blessing BlunderFixed a problem where if Loki and his doppelganger placed Regeneration Domains that overlapped and Loki walked over the overlapped area, then back into his own Regeneration Domain, it would lose its healing effect. Now, the trickster can heal without a hitch!
- Punisher's Missile MayhemAddressed a rare issue where the Punisher's Ultimate Ability would sometimes continue to detect enemies and fire missiles during network disruptions. The Punisher's firepower is now accurate, even in chaos!
- Hela's Knockback KinksResolved an inconsistency where Hela would sometimes be launched up after unleashing her Ultimate Ability. The Goddess of Death will now fly firm to rain destruction her foes!
- Wolverine's Leap of FaithFixed a quirk where characters launched up by Wolverine's Ultimate Ability would sometimes exhibit exaggerated
