Are we about to have NO events ongoing?

Seems like we're about to go from three events at a time, one with up to three sub-events, to none. How will we spend our time? SHIELD training?

  • Weekly should start right after the weekend event.

    Don't even tinykitty joke about that... Hopefully more lightnings or episode 2 will come out. I would love to see more permanent PvE, like the current chapters.
  • At midnight, once the Doom tourney ends, the weekly will start, I am hoping they do 2 weekly again this week, I was able to boost my Spiderman big time this week, Thanks to multiple tournies....

    I'm not sure, but I think The Hunt was episode 2.
  • Cross my fingers and hope the fk not.
  • Hunt was ep2 -- Red ISO was Ep1. Now that said, IceIX did say something about R43 being groundwork for Ep2 and 2.5 -- so what's 2.5? Maybe it was the sub-missions, but I hope not.

    I'd expect the next week or half-week event to show up sometime between now and when Doom ends.

    That or they really want us to go all out on SHIELD.
  • He said on Dec 4th that 2.5 was still a ways off but that EP 2 would be within the next month, possibly much sooner. Whether Hunt (which started a couple days later) is EP 2, beats me.

    it was listed as episode 2 on the marvel puzzle quest facebook

    Ah, ok. Here's the quote:

    any vague estimate of time for episode 2? (if you say within a month, that would be good enough for me)
    Most definitely within that timeframe. Very likely to be much sooner. 2.5's date on the other hand is still written in wet unfired clay. Support is there, we're still tweaking it based on what we've gleaned from analyzing our other PVE events.

    I would hope that even if it were ready to go, they would stop and have a hard look at the Hunt.

    Well played sir.
  • The hunt is most likly the next farm chapter if not it should be but I'm more interested in the next event and another new cover maybe?

    So if The Hunt was episode 2, I'm guessing 2.5 is either a revamped version of a the shunt (sort of like the HEroic versions of Prologue missions) or something partially new using assets created for The Hunt (SHIELD base maps, maybe DD).
  • Now that The Hunt event is done they could make it a permanent solo fixture. After all, competition aspects aside, I thought it was all quite solid story/dialog/mission wise.

    I'd hate to think all the work they put into The Hunt would get discarded or just kept for a "rerun" event down the line. Plus, it drives me a little crazy to see two tabs: prologue and featured/events. You can't have just two tabs, especially if one of them is titled "prologue" - it's just wrong!
  • It would make more sense to roll out the first rediso event as a regular fixture.

    We asked for that after Episode 1 (Red ISO) as well; the response was "we'll look into it", but so far they've just re-run it once (with rubber banding added).

    But, to be fair, it would take awhile to actually make the changes necessary. Maybe Ep1 will show up in a week or two as a permanent PvE. And maybe we can finally 4/4 the early missions...

    Not that any of us are OCD. Nope.
