Hopefully some kind soul will answer these for those of us who haven't (or can't) got hold of a copy yet

Who's the point of view character (like Magma was in the first one), if there is one?

Do you start with more or less the whole team, or does it build up slowly as you meet them, again like the first game.

I know quite a few of you have played it now, and my desire to get hold of this game and play it is reaching new obsessive levels. So....
What are the worst things about the game E.G. characters who are a waste of (mutant) DNA, powers you wish to god you hadn't wasted your hard won experience points on, glitches etc. And can we try and keep it general (i.e 'Juggernaut sucks 'cos he's slow', rather than 'juggernaut sucks when he kicks that guy into the lava during level three before you can question him') without spoilers please for those poor bas%£*#s like myself who can't get our paws on it yet.

Spoilerless replies to my endless curiosity requested please

1.How soon do you get Deadpool as a playable character? Really vague replies will do (Halfway through, a third of the way through etc) I don't want to spoil it for anybody.
2. In the comics IIRC Bishop generates his blasts by absorbing the kinetic energy of attacks made on him. Did they put this into the game mechanics?

Thanks for the answers, too bad about Deadpool though, you must have been pissed Makiavelli!
