How the Hulk scoring system works ?

Oy, I'm sitting at 49.1k at about 1300 with only the Final Showdown left. I'm pretty sure I'll need to beat that mission in order to stay in top 1500.

Why oh why are there no timers or anything to give any indication about when or whether the missions reset. The lack of any communication in-game about how these events work is astonishing to me. There's going to be a lot of pissed off people tomorrow (again).

Lack of information on resets is a two-edged sword. Not having it sucks, but if everyone knew at the start exactly how things reset, the game would go to whomever is most willing to disrupt their sleep (and everything else) schedule to grind immediately upon reset. That's not a championship of skills, but one of OCD and masochism.

I enjoy these PvE events a lot, but I think the basic mode of competition in them isn't working well.

Otherwise this event will be disappointing in terms of how close we got to 50k. I couldn't care less for Hulk but I was excited about the Punisher cover. Now he's sitting 2k away with "repeatables" not actually giving points.

If they replenish every hour or even two, it'll be an ironman competition to stay up all night, at least in my time zone.

I won 3 tokens from the last 2 missions (top4 and top200) and they turned out to be normal heroic tokens instead of event specific ones.
Is that normal?

The award says normal heroic token, not Gamma Bomb ones. Not sure why the sudden change, but you didn't get anything unusual.

I'm sitting at 49675 points with nothing left to do. I repeated the missions with 0 points just to make sure it's not a display issue (it's not). I hope these missions refresh in the normal 8 hour period.

Looking at these point value I'm guessing you have to be around 49500 or so points before the final set started to have enough points to hit 50K if the missions do not refresh, but if they only refreshed once you still need around 49K at the start of this set. What sucked is I could've gotten another 325 points from the sub-brackets but I thought there was going to be one more sub-bracket so I saved a small amount of points for them.

That's lame... I wanted one last shot at the Punisher
Turns out I will fall short of 50k too, since there are no repeatable missions that give points in the last stage. After 8 days of grinding, I'm a "little" pissed right now

I hate it when people assume stuff about this game and get angry when they are wrong. If you haven't realized it at this point, they aren't going to be giving you information about how the events work, so quit assuming that you know. Instead make educated decisions based on your observations. Everyone is going on the same information, so it is a level playing field, and figuring out the most effective strategy is part of the competition. Could they give us more info? Sure, but honestly I kinda like figuring out things and doing well because I make good decisions.

Also quit complaining about not getting a single final progression reward. You got a **** ton of good stuff along the way and the final reward should be reserved for the best comepetitors, not just everyone who plays. It SHOULD be hard, most people SHOULD miss out, that is what is fair.

You also need punisher to even unlock all the end missions. I thought I'd have him by now but all of my Heroic/Gamma Bomb token awarded me nothing but Cap America which I already have maxed. Total dissapointment.

I'd love for an actual developer to explain the reasoning behind so many odd decisions for an otherwise fantastic game.

Ugggghhhh. I'm sitting at 49407. I think I may be juuuust shy of getting a Punisher. So frustrating. The 4 events I can see are currently worth a total of 317, which I assume will decrease as I do them due to me eating up my rubberbanding lol. What are the point values on the 2 unlockable events like?

Lol I'm just sitting here doing No Man's Land while RB brins my mission points up

Calm down guys.

You're right, not everyone SHOULD win all the rewards but hearing that so many people are within 1-3% of acheiving their goal only to fall short is pretty telling. It's not a coincidence that many dedicated players are right around that 48K range in the final hours.

49728... so close. And unless I get a perfect board, my current team isn't able to handle that last mission. Man I hope those missions with zero value increase to something more than nothing in the last few hours. At this point I just want that Punisher because... because... ugh. So close...

Unknown

I'm not stressing It's just frusatrating to be so close XD I was either in the top 300 or close to when the sub brackets ended (I stopped at 268th I think with 2 min left, came back like 10 min after, was in 316th), so I feel like I'm guaranteed a top 1500 placement, and have a good shot at a top 300. Just, getting the Punisher would be icing on the cake =D.

Unknown

Displayed values have increased about 25% for me since we hit the 12 hour mark, from: 26, 33, 40, 59 to 33, 41, 50, 74.

Hmmm are we thinking these won't refresh like the Hunt?

Or maybe they could just debrief the event at the beginning and avoid us getting angry at all?
Also this event pay=win.
If you coughed up the 30 or so euros needed for a guaranteed punisher you had access to the missions giving the most points, that made it so much easier to get to 50k/top300. How is that level playing field?
Actually, after 8 days of playing the event you can't even see the ending if you don't have one! That's just stupid IMHO.

Unknown

If all the top 10 have hit the 50k mark I would say that they planned the final progression reward perfectly, and am super impressed that with rubber banding and Christmas deadzone/increase in playing due vacation, that they were able to determine right where the top players were going to be. I've seen a lot about the top rewards not being attainable, which has been totally valid. this is an example of them doing a great job fixing that.

Unknown

Plus side, I am ranked in the top 20 or so right now @ 49994..and I have one mission still not completed (3rd search n destroy) for about 20-30 points..so I should get castle regardless, but the lack of refresh on your page to show the mission dropped to zero after one play is def irritating. I would have saved some till later had I known. Though, lack of repeat means I HOPEFULLY don't have to worry about dropping out of 1500. Top 300 would be cool...just on the chance that some day they make 4**** useful (see: probably not retroactively). I missed the last events red ironman by a game or two so I am happy that I should be getting this one.

ALSO...the standard tokens are definently coming up as heroic for ALL these missions...so def repeat them ..point or no points.

Unknown

Considering this ends at something like 5am for me, I'm glad these last missions are the way they are. Presumably I can sleep and not worry too much about dropping in the ranks too far.

Pay to win? Nope. Haven't spent a dime. Got lucky with one Punisher from a token, others from a tourney. I'm in the top 300.
