    Mephisto already says it. I don't know if they'd go to that well twice.

    Do we know yet how many more of the recent 4* we'll see in DDQ after Red Hulk? Or when we'll start cycling back through?

    Don't worry, I am sure a Demiurge wouldn't even consider releasing a new character and or story event during a major holiday. That sort of thing only ever happens when they are lots of staff around for when "something has gone awry."

    Think the plan is to go through all of 'em, so that's, what, Ghost Rider, Chulk, and whoever the upcoming release (Miles! Miles?) is if it aligns with the schedule. What I'm curious about is whether the reset will be the same matchups, or if XFW will get a non-Cyclops (4* Cyclops?) opponent.

    Holiday pvp and new pve? I am excited. icon_e_smile.gif

    I look forward to earning ALL the Kringle points. If they're particularly festive (or particularly Roman Catholic), it'll be a 12-day event that ends on January 6.

    So we are going to see BACK TO BACK 4 stars again

    DEC 17 and DEC 24?

    Please slow down the 4 stars i mean your going to kill the game

    2 4 stars per month is fine the 3 per month is just way too many. hopefully back to 2 come jan. i mean 3000 per month needed for slots is just a little too much for many

    also can we PLEASE get an update is the new features have any chance at coming out in dec or its is a JAN or later plan now
  • So it is Miles, next is Eddie Brock.

    I think its great that we are a getting a 7 day pve that no one wanted.

    What I'm really excited for is the new pve right afterwards that I will not be able to completely partake in because I didn't sacrifice the week before Christmas getting the new 4* character that will no doubt be required for said new pve.

    Good will to all.

    nowhere in the original post does it say the holiday weekend pvp is a new release, just a new event. They may use the next new 4* as a villain in the new event, to test out spidey against.. and release him during sim.

    There was initial outcry about a release over the holiday, so now that miles is being released BEFORE it, there is outcry..

    The initial post mentioned a new PVE after ISO Brotherhood.
    UPCOMING PVE EVENTS

    Venom: Heroic
    Iso-8 Brotherhood
    New PVE - ???
    Simulator Challenge

    What I'm saying is I expect the new spider-man to be a required character for this new event. Unless its something great like Growth Industry, but to the best of my recollection I thought the pace was to run those type of events before the new character was released in the standard pve fashion.

    I would be super happy if d3 never does a 7-day new character pve ever again. That's way too much work and not at all fun. Even if I play a ton, I never make top 100 individually, and unless I score a certain amount, then I won't even make enough for an alliance to hit top 100. Even if I do score enough, that's only 1 cover after a week of endless grinding... it's just not worth it.

    i think the outcry is cause its a 7 day event
