    I was just going to mention this too... according to my calendar, the Black Panther tourney is the mid-week tourney. I think we're missing one?

    Hmm, you're right, count is off. I don't have access to the calendar at the moment, but I'll recheck when I can. For now, enjoy having a mystery tourney! I bet it's really Old Man Wilkins.

    if you run concurrent pve or pvp events, players are going to complain about not having heals to fully engage in the live events. Lower engagement = big no-no to D3's bean counters. icon_lol.gif

    not sure if that is true since i think they said they want to see how gaunlet runs along the side of HULK PVE.. Meaning we could start seeing a gaunlet running every 7 days right along the side of other PVEs

    I think they did the same thing with the last Gauntlet. As I recall, another event started about halfway through the runtime.

    According to the in-game countdown, the season ends in a week, so that would leave room for only 2 more pvp's after Hulk (which would make it a normal 10-pvp season). Something is very off with that schedule indeed.

    QS is most likely the next pvp since Hulk doesn't have Mr Fantastic as top 1 reward, but after that it's either Mr Fantastic pvp as season end (so another new character pvp at the end, just like Xpool's last time, and also the first pvp to offer legendary tokens if I'm not mistaken), or BP's as in the list above, with Mr Fantastic in the offseason.

    this gets my vote. hitting above your weight becomes very hard dragging dead weight with you. I think every **** event possible should be off season.

    He's literally the longest unchanged 3 star in the game. Did the math.

    I know it takes time to write content, and i appreciate how tough it can be to do that well. My point is that it doesn't need "testing" like new powers do so it needs an author not a tech team.

    The problem is that it doesn't earn money directly, just makes players happier in the long run and feel part of something that grows over time instead of stuck in a loop that they will, eventually, grow bored of.

    Tbh, I rarely read the dialogue past the first screen, if I even read that. It really doesn't have any bearing on the gameplay and I'd rather just get to the action.

    I don't read the story either. Maybe I had, once, but I'm not even sure. However the repetition of the same dozen bad guys in the same dozen configuration doesn't color the game in a good way.

    New character is fine, but as far as I'm concerned it's not really "content". I do not deny it requires work but it doesn't really change the landscape of the game. You can add as many weapons to a FPS as you want, people are going to ask for new areas.

    The story is pretty disappointing...as a noob I was curious what happened after you beat the node, and there's barely anything. Hell, one of the stories ends with GO READ THIS COMIC!!!

    Equally odd is they pass this to a Marvel writer, so it's not just some person coasting off his/her work(or maybe it is?).

    UPCOMING VERSUS TOURNAMENTS

    Hulk - Smash Hit
    Quicksilver - Blue Shift
    Mr. Fantastic - ???
    Mystique - Identity Theft
    Black Panther - Predator and Prey (End of season 18)

    Umm...this doesn't work. There's only 3 PvP's left this season.

    Hulk (Slice 1 Sun-Wed)
    Quicksilver (Tue-Fri)
    Mr. Fantastic (Fri-Sun). End of Season. (there's 6 days left in the season).

    So either Mystique/Black Panther are offseason events, or they're the start of 19.

    Nope, it's only a 4 day event.

    You'll have to find something else to complain about.

    So the events extend past what the Season is indicating. The game shows the season ends in 3 days but there's too many events. What's gonna happen when the game strikes zero?
