    So apparently something in this update may have borked the tokens again. I have been saving a single token from every event (pve and pvp) for the last few months. All of the one-off 4* pvps (that I really wish they'd rerun), Ultron, etc.

    Now when I tab right I go from Heroic to Hulk, to DPdaily, Real Steel, stockpiled DPDaily, Gauntlet, DA Heroic, TaT, EotS, Made Man, ISO8 Bros, and then... nothing but Simulator tokens. Every single one has been converted into a simulator token. Either that or it's now bugged and won't scroll right anymore, even with 70+ (more than the tokens I had) taps.
    Confirming this bug. The stored up tokens have disappeared; they weren't converted into Simulator tokens. That infinite scrolling is just another bug. I had about the same number of tokens go poof. Just sent in a CS ticket. Suggest everyone do the same.

    Facebook linking appears to have some issues after the update as well. I was logged out of both of my phone and tablet after installing the update. Logged back in on both devices but it doesn't seem to want to keep me logged in.

    Looks like this update also changed Bullseye's tile icon and the icon next to his power bar from arrows to an Ace of Spades. Probably because 3* Classic Bullseye won't be represented well by the arrow icon when he doesn't use a bow. How's that for a hint about new characters?

    Why couldn't they just simply use a Bullseye? What are they going to use for Gambit now? Wonder if 2* will get a 3rd power to coincide with the new 3*

    I noticed a couple strange things after this update:

    1. The deadpool daily quest for Lazy Cap blue reset. You can re-run the event for the cover, ISO and taco tokens, even if you had run it before prior to the update.

    2. My facebook backup seems to be reset... or at least the pop up window asking me if I'd like to backup to facebook (even though I was already doing so for the past year) suggests I am no longer backing up? Should we reconfigure the FB backup a second time or wait and do nothing (since this may be a glitch)?

    Gambit

    Haha. That guy's never going to show up. Don't you know how popular he is? Giving the people what they want is never going to work. We've got 3 Wolverines and 3 Storms, but still waiting on a 2nd Cyclops. Plus Beast, Psylocke and Colossus only have 1 version so far, so Gambit should just wait. Also, after Ragnarok, I don't think they're ever going to release a Charged Tile character.

    If they really want to use card suits, I'd guess they'd have to use Clubs for Gambit. Spades goes to Bullseye and Diamonds go to Vision. Doubt they'd use Hearts.

    Definitely having problems with the backup between two devices. Played a bit after the update on my phone then switched to the tablet. Gained two event tokens in Real Steel, and one in Hulk as well as 20+ covers in PvP. Waited a while and switched back to the phone. Points in events were correct so leader board is synching, but the tokens and covers weren't there. However, all characters had full health and I was back to full health packs. Played a few more, waited, then back to tablet. New leader board points were there, health packs gone, but tokens and covers back.

    Really weird.

    Well people begged for Cyclops and eventually we got him, even if it weren't the 90's Classic we really wanted. Maybe they will wait for Gambit's pending movie from Fox.

    Why would Beast, Psylocke and Colossus have more than 1 version? Besides the 3 of them being the least used characters in MPQ, their look has not changed much in the X-Men Universe (Yes Beast started Human, but that's about it).

    If not for Sexy Cyclops, we would be lacking for hilarious meme's... they chose right!

    You should submit a ticket for that. Hopefully when they fix it they can restore your tokens properly.

    I had a similar issue last night. I logged in on my phone post-update, had to log in to Facebook again, fine. Ran a few nodes, got the Hulk green cover and some points, logged out.

    I opened up my tablet later and had to log in on Facebook there too. But the nodes no longer showed as cleared even though I had the points, and my Hulk was back to 4 green covers. Worried, I re-ran the Hulk node and got his green cover back. I went back to my phone and all was still fine there. My Hulk had his 5 green covers and the proper nodes were cleared. Everything seems back in sync now today.

    D3 seems to have made some curious decisions about what aspects of the game are stored on their servers vs on Facebook's (or, if you don't use Facebook, only on your device!). A player's roster is clearly the latter, which would seem to expose that data to hacking shenanigans and mishaps. I admit, I was curious to try & snapshot my device's data before & after that Hulk cover when I figured that out.

    Too similar to an Invisibility tile?

    Moore"]Good day everyone,

    Let's take a look at what's in the R76 update.

    R76 Patch Notes:

    UI, Tweaks & Bug Fixes
    - Reduced the size of game saves to prevent save corruption.
    - Star-Lord’s Oldest Trick in the Book and Everyone With Me abilities now properly modify AP costs when used as a Team-Up.
    - Team-ups properly activate Kamala Khan’s Bring out the Best and Professor X’s Psychic Convergence abilities.
    - Teisatsu's “Turn to Smoke” ability now triggers after tiles are matched.
    - Abilities without any eligible targets now give the correct error message.
    - Fixed a bug where players were unable to select a mission in the tutorial.
    - Fixed a Shield purchasing exploit.

    R76 completely broke Teisatu's Turn to Smoke power. Turn to Smoke now appears to be severely bugged with this new update. It now triggers regardless of whether they're stunned (defeating the purpose of tactical gameplay), and triggers 3-5 times per Tiesatsu.

    Riiiii--ght... Here's a rather small and modest helping of some of Psylocke's other looks:

    Go and look for Beast and Colossus yourself and be amazed...

    And triggers ... and triggers ... and triggers ... and triggers ... and triggers.

    I just downed one Teisatsu in DDQ and when the wave switched that one downed Teisatsu filled just about the WHOLE board with attack tiles.

    So, did this happen? I have an alliance mate who still can't play.

    This issue will show up for folks that have Simulator tokens that are several Simulator runs old. There's an attempted fix in the next data patch (which we typically ship several times a week). The tokens are still in your save data and should return when we fix the display issue.

    Bullseye is pretty well known for the Ace of Spades!
