    I thought it meant, we just lost half of our paying customers and we need new ones.

    Woot woot! I'm going back to consoles, consoles, consoles. *sang like LLCJ*

    I'm impressed by the bravery/obliviousness suggested by this:
    reminding the forum that YouTube exists while the announcement of an unpopular round of character fun-balances is barely 1 day old.

    Emeryt is going to have to download the app again and spend the 1,000HP his video is going to win him so that he can rage-quit all over again, netting him another 1,000HP.

    D3 announced a nerf to one infinite combo and then introduced another the very next day!

    What's that mean????
  • In other words :

    help us spread MPQ on the social networks, to advertise a game that rewards you so little for your efforts.

    I'm sorry, but no thank you.

    It doesn't matter to me why D3 is doing this. I like free stuff icon_e_biggrin.gificon_lol.gif Count me in.

    I have one of those "parental protection " apps that records every button push of every web site in real time. It even records all my MPQ game time. Which means that I have a LOT of footage. 4 memory cards full of stuff icon_e_surprised.gif . I have a really awesome idea for a video montage. It will start with a match I had about 6 or 7 weeks ago against level 260 Goons.

    I was using 153 Patch, 166 Steve Rogers, and 140 Big Thor. I had 2 match 5s on my starting/opening board. One at the top of the board, one at the bottom. Made the one at the top first. Made the second and got a Megascade - (megascade is my term for mega cascade). I timed it on the recording and start to finish, it was 27 seconds long. During the cascade, I got 4 match 5 criticals and multiple match 4s. When the board settled, I had 2 more match 5s icon_e_surprised.gif . Both were in the middle of the board, so I could only make one. I made the match and got another Megascade with 2 match 5 criticals. When the board settled I only had regular match 3s, but 2 goons were down and the 3rd only had 73 health. icon_e_biggrin.gif If only they were all that easy. I would like to start my video with that match.

    But, I've never posted a video to YouTube before. Could someone that knows how to do that post instructions on here so that I, as well as anyone else that might not know, will know how to go about doing this? It would be much appreciated. icon_e_biggrin.gif Thanks.

    I love free stuff, too, but having this offer start today is so tone deaf it defies logic.

    I like the idea of rewarding players for expanding the game through gameplay videos. These are a popular niche of YouTube but usually have something unique to draw in the views. 1000 views is pretty hard to get unless you have a dedicated channel or some trending topic. Most the gameplay videos I have seen either revolve around a glitch or speed run. MPQ has several old hack videos on YouTube but few interesting gameplay videos. By removing the cool factor options of "check out this one shot kill" or "winfinite" really all were left with is videos of the same footage we would get if you played the game straight up.

    That said I think that 1000 views is only going to be achieved by the very few. I don't even have any experience with gameplay videos so I would need a run through of how it's made. Maybe the only interesting concept I could come up with would be taking all the dialog screenshots from the PVE and have a comedy spoof.

    If the developers own videos like https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... vV9eAeYU-F can't get 1000 views how can players be expected to.
  • Sounds like they want us to do their dirty work for them... Free promotion=more $$$

    That was awesome. Thank you for posting. Glad I got to see it before it went extinct.

    The Rage Quit of Emeryt?

    Can you guys credit 1000HP into the account of Emeryt?
  • Wow 1k hp? Just multiply that by 2.5 and you get enough to buy one cover for a character you guys will turn into a turd weeks later. What a deal

    This is the larger issue I want addressed.
  • Almost wish I had a video from the first balance of power. Was using old school modern storm, obw and bullseye to consistently one shot BoP 270 Juggs, then they took my forest away and nerfed little 1* storm.

    That was the most satisfying tournament ever though.

    I won't bother making a match 3 at this point.
  • Oh my god watching youtube videos of people playing MPQ is hard...dude had mystique IF and x-force and spent 22 black ap to surgical strike Cap twice in a row destroying a total of 4 yellow tiles when he could have just shapshifted into masterstroke to end it, or IF purpled twice for damage to end it...some people have all the toys and not a lick of sense or skill SMH.

    P.S. Does show how utterly foolproof certain teams are though -.-
  • I would love to see someone post a video where he got a lot of cascading attack from the opponent and finish all his characters in 1 shot.
    Let me know if someone really have the video, then I will give 'like' to the video post. icon_lol.gif

    Are they serious ?!?! icon_rolleyes.gif

    If I would tell anyone about this game and hers requirenmets to sanity, sleep, if I would tell anyone about deceptive practise of develepers (who are almost at of level thieves and defrauders right now), if I would tell anyone about level of developers incompetance,
    that person would tell me Im stupid.

    Instead of videos showing so called "roster diversity", show us videos where you win over 320 level Ares without boosts and ofc without (nerfed) Thoress. And ofc do it 4x a row, in order to place top 5 in that idiotic PVE.
    THAT is video I want to see !!!!
    My friends are persuading me to DELETE this game, because they see how it mess with my life !!!!
    I would recommend this game only to my worst enemy.

    There are atleast 3 people leaving my alliance because of your incompetence !!!! Level of sadness and frustration is super high because of recent changes... And you want us to promote your game !!!!
    What arrogant from you !!!!

    Im going to refresh it numerous times.
    Your video is super proof of theirs incompetence. I hope you win (seriously).

    But as someone has written before, they change HP price for ISO.
  • I don't like this at all. Anything that gain you an advantage in the game should be earned through game play only. This unbalances the game even if just a little. For developers that promote "FUN BALANCING" this stinks. If you want to promote the game do it yourself or give players reason via game play for us to want to promote this to our friends.
