    German

    I wish there was an easier way to switch the game language to english though, apart from changing the OS language

    you and me both...I appreciate the effort they took to translate the thing but in some places the translation is lacking and with many things I just prefere the original language.

    How do they populate the brackets anyway? Is as simple as first come first serve or do they start a few and feel them up skill based?

    First come first served.
  • I'm digging on the 5k iso reward! All in favor of making it a standard reward, vote aye!
  • Ha! Cheater already got banned in my Hard sub-bracket. Guy went up to 10000 in the time it took me to clear the first 5 nodes the first time through. Seeing a name disappear like that just never gets old....

    Something is wrong today... I already pulled 3x 3 star covers from standard tokens O.o

    yeah, I pulled two doom covers from the standard tokes as well

    I wish I could say the same... I'm getting my standard IM35s and Modern BW... hoping luck will come my way soon!

    None of the forumites i recognise so far appear to be in any of my brackets.

    I've felt we needed our own space for a while now.

    It's not you it's me.

    Seconded. Battle thongs FTW lol
  • Holy tinykitty, the Maggia grunts are still overpowered.

    There is no way the first round of the simulator should be terrifying to complete successfully....

    Pistol... Pistol... Pistol... Sniper Rifle...

    How in the universe are level 20's grunts downing 85+ characters with relative ease? icon_eek.gif

    Levels scaling some, but only a small gradient (Thugs in first easy node began at 25, are now at 30). Not sure if scaling is per node or cumulative yet.
    Cumulative. Although with a much better gradient and something that we looked up called a "ceiling". Progression rewards were tuned to be more in line with what harder core players are capable of earning. We went a bit too far last time around on them. Although there were people that got them all, it wasn't as many as we would have liked.

    Hey IceIX, what was the design reasoning behind the levels scaling cumulatively as opposed to on a per node basis? A lot of the forumers (myself included) were requesting static scaling so that only each individual node scales, and I was curious as to why you guys were doing this scaling across the board.

    Also, does this level scaling persist across different subevents?

    Bump for visibility.

    Came home tried the hard simulator and no way to beat a level 120 boosted daken wolverine goon combo... Daken has over 5k hp, regens close to 400 hp per turn and spams 87 dmg strike tile. I don't have a 2 ap cheese stun to get past the level so guess it aint gonna happen.... hate broken pve content.

    I honestly think that, level for level, Maggia Muscle is the toughest opponent in the game.

    This event is a blast...I'm enjoying mixing and matching teams. And the ISO, so much ISO!!!

    Thank you.
  • IMO toughest opponent is always boosted Daken (don't have a usable Spidey)

    I can beat them within 4 minutes using Maxed classic storm, Maxed Obw, and level 75 moonstone. Boost are REQUIRED, i use +3 all ap, +3 purple/blue, and +3 black/green. I stunned daken with c storm, then i targeted xforce with moonstone photon blast, stole ap with obw, used storm to collect ap, finished xforce and daken with all that ap. Maggia didnt stand a chance in either mode. I also managed to get enough ap for control shift if needed.
