as the title says. heroup.com is accepting registrations and windows and mac users can supposedly play.
linux users ( like me ) are outa luck.
I am glad to see this didn't get cancelled with everything else, now I just have to grab the kids netbook and start playing.
(I would have posted this in the video game section, but considering this has been the only good news since toyfair, I'm gonna give it the main stage.

I'm shocked there's not more talk of it online. It's a damn fun game.
There's codes floating around for free playing time and exclusive characters.
Superhero - Free Subscription HeroUp! - Hulkbuster Iron Man (From the Taco Bell Kid's Meal Comic Book) mamarosas - Tuxedo Thing (From Mama Rosa's Frozen Pizzas)
Also, Wave 21 of Super Hero Squad have mini comics with codes. But they're not active just yet.

Heh. It's addictive. Especially unlocking all the characters and getting them leveled up. Considering Silver Surfer costs 25,000 Silver to unlock, I'm shocked I've seen people with him already. Plus earning the various medals with them. And there's clearly more characters coming.

They're not active yet, so I don't know what they do yet. But probably an exclusive character.

Oh I meant, maybe you could just post them for future reference. Perhaps they can be added to the original post with a red "Inactive" next to them.
By the way, my name in the game is Justice Crazy Berserker. If anyone happens to see me on or want to play missions.
Also, would anyone know know if the gold on the prize wheel resets once per day? Is there a 300 gold per day win limit?

The codes in the comics are not reuseable from what I can tell. Since they're all unique. Also, yes... the prize wheel resets once per day. So you gotta save up for the big guys.

No problem. Looks like the Subscription feature is active on the game now as well.
1 month is $9.95 6 months is $49.95 12 months is $79.95
I'll probably do it on a month to month basis. Since the game is so new, I don't wanna get locked into a 6 or 12 month contract. My current free subscription is good through May 28th anyway.
Just checked the comic codes, still not active as of yet. Hopefully soon.

Is that the free subscription you get through entering the "Superhero" code? I didn't know there was a time limit.
Also, let's say I buy Black Suit Spider-man. Would I still be able to use him after my membership runs out?

standard practice is to delete all accounts when a beta test ends, that way everyone starts at the same point.
$10 a month seems a bit steep for a browser based game, I hope they don't overprice themselves out of existence

Well I hope the card battle side adds some depth to the game. I am both a big fan of MMOs and CCGs. I also got a chance to play the card game from a couple free decks given to me from PAX. It's pretty fun, if not simplistic. I would play more but I don't know anyway else but my girlfriend that would play with me. I could see how being able to build your own deck would be fun though.
