    With Season 20. He was fully intended to be added to Anniversary tokens, but we got hit by the server issues. By the time everything was stable again and the engineers that would have done the work were available, it was at the point that changing the tokens wasn't feasible since quite a few players had bought packs that would be (rightfully) angry if they missed out on a character who wasn't there before. Think the changed odds for the Anniversary packs, but across the entire game.

    Isn't that AFTER the event is suppose to start?
    I'm certainly intending to get things up earlier than that, but I'd rather allow for acts of god and pad myself a little.

    So the Galactus event will begin as scheduled which would be in something like 13 hours from now or something?

    So if I'm reading this correctly, both the Cyke and Grocket pvp's will be offseason, right?

    Damn, another week's wait to open up my Legendary token stockpile.

    Sounds about right. Bet they'll start the season with a Red Hulk PvP...

    Updated this thread with pretty much all completely new information. I apologize for letting this get out of date.

    More Galactus info tomorrow, testing went well today, just waiting on some final stability tests once it's patched in to make sure we've got accurate stuff for you all. So expect that before noon PST!

    Apology and ownership go a long way in my book. Thanks for the updates IceIX. I apologize if I came off as extra snarky or impatient, but was just trying to keep the thread updated and moved to the first page in case it wasn't, so it could be updated.
  • so three hours into the event we will get specifics about the event. this just gave me the best laugh ive had in a while. thanks Ice. icon_e_biggrin.gificon_e_biggrin.gificon_e_biggrin.gificon_e_biggrin.gif

    That should be before anybody starts fighting Galactus anyway, because if you sign up for a second round of that #$!@show without a detailed explanation of why it sucks less this time around you have only yourself to blame.

    Remember when "all events are locked in 3 weeks out"? Now it's "it might be ready by launch time"

    I will take that over "here try this rushed event and let us know whats wrong while you die" any day.

    I appreciate the explanation. It's certain a reasonable explanation for not having Bobby added.

    It's probably a left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing issue. icon_e_confused.gificon_rolleyes.gificon_lol.gif

    thing is "we were supposed to fail (die)", they got the premise (goal of the event) right, but wondered why we didn't like/accept it (because buying Health packs and boosts sucks).
  • One hour remaining, if they plan on starting at the same time as Galactus 1.0.

    What is taking them so long to announce their changes, if any?

    Please clarify if you mean the beginning of Season 20.

    i.e. "He will be added on 10/22"

    Token updates always happen at the beginning of the season, not halfway through.

    How is 10/22 halfway through? Looks like the beginning of Season20 to me...
