[QUOTE="Admin, post: 58834, member: 1"] Just under three years after its release, support for [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/marvels-avengers']Marvel's Avengers[/URL] is winding down. Today, Crystal Dynamics released Patch 2.8 for Marvel's Avengers, which adds some final features and bug fixes to the game before it gets delisted later this year. Crystal Dynamics revealed the patch via [URL='https://avengers.crystald.com/en-us/patch-notes-v2-8/#:~:text=Update%202.8%20is%20the%20final,End%2Dof%2DSupport%20Q%26A.']a blog post[/URL], which thanks players for their support. The patch focuses on introducing some final features to the game and includes a host of new bug fixes. Patch 2.8 makes many of the game's cosmetics more accessible, fully removing the Shipments and Hero Challenge Cards systems from the game and instead putting their rewards in the Marketplace. The update also automatically converts players' Credits balances into in-game resources and turns Hero's Catalysts and Fragment Extractors into a permanent 1.5x multiplier on earned Fragments and XP. Additionally, players who earned at least one Trophy before April 1 will receive Iron Man's Variable Threat Response Battle Suit as a thank you gift. The patch notes, which can be read in full on the [URL='https://avengers.crystald.com/en-us/patch-notes-v2-8/#:~:text=Update%202.8%20is%20the%20final,End%2Dof%2DSupport%20Q%26A.']Crystal Dynamics website[/URL], also detail quite a few bug fixes that address everything from combat to certain animations.
