With the Variant traps Like outlaw brawl and chain in his water logholder, Are they stuck in them traps or can you use it as any normal trap to capture villains of that element?. Because do i need to buy another water logholder trap in wave 1 and another life torch trap?.

You can use them like a regular trap.

Be careful though. There appears to be a bug that is "overriding" the variant when a new villain is put in the "special" trap. See thread link below:

So i dont need two? So if i put gulper in it would outlaw brawl and chain go into the vault?

We still aren't 100% sure until someone fully tests it out.

Don't worry, Activision will produce a patch, like they always do.

Didn't they say no patches? And I was just on the phone to them and they had no idea it was an issue apparently, I called because my brawl and chain didn't work.

I think Ghost Roaster was just being ironic lol. I don't think they've ever issued a patch to address a game bug of any sort (like, the Wii glitch thing in SSA with whats his face). If I'm not mistaken, the only updates they've put out have been just that..updates to backend stuff.

Do we have any hope for the tablet version to get updates? Since it's an app.

I wouldn't count on it. Given the number of weird things we saw bug wise last year, I'll be chillin and relaxin waiting for you guys to give me your tales of woe. Not sure why I should just hand over my $$$ if there are serious bugs and no way for them to address it.

True, but there's always the risk of missing certain characters if you wait.

When I started the game up on my PS3 this morning it made me download an update, if that helps you guys in any way.

For those wondering about riot shield shredder. When he is in the life trap that he came is is riot shield shredder when I put him a different trap he came up as normal shield shredder. I should add they never leave the vault you can have the same villian in multiple traps. You can't clone variant villians. I over wrote my Riot sheild shredder with sheep creep when I put shield shredder back I he only shows up as riot in the trap he came in.

So the traps themselves are marking them as unique to avoid us making them 'viral' and sharing with one another. Lovely. Is there any difference between regular and Riot Shield Shredder other than color? And do they share the same color once you do their quest or does that much differ as well?

I haven't played that far into it yet.

Yeah, i am curious about the color after the quest too. That always annoyed me about fully upgraded QDRS.

Also, If i dont purchase another life torch trap and keep the riot shield shredder one, will i never be able to play as regular shield shredder in that trap. Without him turning into a riot?

I don't believe so. Whenever shield shredder is copied to "his" life torch he will always show as "Riot". However you can transfer him to any other life trap and he will show as the normal Shield shredder.

Better than my luck. I bought a riot shield shredder trap from ebay back in August and when I put it on the portal last night it was just a life trap. No villain trapped. My outlaw brawl and chain worked fine though.

Did yours have the Riot shield shredder on the front of the box? If so maybe when you capture him he will show as Riot.

Yeah had it on the box, will have to catch him today to check. I hope so or I wasted a lot of money.

Did he come straight up for you or did you have to capture him first. The outlaw b and c worked straight off the bat that's why I'm worried about the riot trap.

He loaded in straight away for me. I still waiting on my brawl and chain JB didn't get any in yet.
