So my nodes all reset at noon today, eastern time.I finished all the nodes immediately after they reset. I just loaded my game and I notice all my nodes are locked and my timer was at 8 hours (implying they were just completed).

This screen shot was taken about 20 minutes ago

Also, in our line chat, 2 minutes before I notice this in my game, someone else posed the exact same thing, with the same question. Our nodes, even though all competed way earlier, show the countdown near 8 hours, implying they were just completed.

Is this a glitch or anyone else having this issue?

    Sounds like it's working as designed.

    Once you complete all of the essential pins/nodes, you either have to wait 8 hours for your personal refresh, or more likely the universal refreshes at set 8 hour intervals throughout the day, i.e. 8 pm EST.

    eta: the Ultron 8 hour timer resets after every battle. You unlock it with an essential. Play it, then it resets.

    Yeah, I get that, just it sitting at the 8hours shown, would imply I just finished all nodes. However they were completed much earlier in the day, so that countdown should read closer to 4 hours or so.

    Ah, I see, you completed the last node much earlier in the day - 4 hours ago? If so, that is weird.

    This may be obvious but did you advance a round? That resets the timers.

    Yah the timer in the middle means nothing, i've had it say 6 hours, then at noon, refreshed as planned. Don't sweat it, you will get your nodes in about 25 minutes.
