please don't launch a new char during Christmas

Shadow

The R90 preview seems to suggest 2 more new chars to be released this year. I assume one of those will be starting around 17th December. One week off after hulk then new char. But there's no more time to release another one after that unless it comes on 24th December? I hope this isn't the case.

Hopefully, it is more like 1 new char for from 17th - 21st December and another new char from 21st - 24th December if there are really going to be 2 more new chars for this year. This is much more preferable compared to a launch during Christmas.

I think they're actually releasing over the end of the year/new year.

You're going to be awake anyway, why not spend that time grinding in MPQ?

Yes, stuff family and friends. I plan to spend my entire Christmas glued to MPQ!

Santa: "What do you want for Christmas little player"
Player: "I want the new 4*!"
Santa: "ho ho ho ho! No problem! Just grind my 7-day event and you'll receive your 4* on New Years Day! Ho ho ho"
Player: "Nevermind I'll take the football"

Hope you aren't assuming that every player celebrates that holiday.. i don't, and i am in the US.. making exceptions for non-universal holidays, especially religious(actually, commercial) holidays, would be bad form for an international game.

maybe.... A new surprise character's cover holiday gift for logging in on Christmas Day..!!! yay..!!!

Monged4life

Well if you do celebrate Xmas, and you're seriously considering dumping your family at that time so you can grind MPQ for the new 4* that you HAVE to have... Then what you have is a problem.

That's a good point, but I think it's worth noting that many in the U.S. and West get those days off regardless of their religious observances, which means more time to play. Or, you know, watch your kids grow up if you're some kind of jerk.

Although if this is the new character, then all is forgiven.



(thanks, Punisher5784! yes, I know it'd be another Wolverine, but if you don't like the idea of Wolverine: Santa Claws, then your heart is two sizes too small.)

Or will be, once he's through with you.

It's not like they are releasing a new character every day. They have pauses in the releases. If the pause so happens to coincide with Christmas or Ramadan or whatever, is that bad for an international game?

i really hope there is one so i have something to do.. Really though think about it its not as bad as you think it would been. I thought the thanksgiving new event would be bad but Got to remember you only have to

Log in every 8 hours or just do a double tap and then play at the end...

If i was not put in a death bracket thanksgiving i would of made top 100. make 128th.

I would think more people would have problems at thanksgiving then Christmas finding time to play. (at least steam users)

I would only expect that if they launched new characters over Thanksgiving, or Labor Day, or Independence Day... oh. Nevermind.

JVReal

I don't celebrate, but I have 11 days of no work spanning two weekends... so I'm ok with it. But I can see how it would be inconvenient for those that do celebrate it.

Do we know that the two new characters referenced are both 4*s? I mean, it would be weird to release new rivals at different levels, but they could have meant the unannounced 5* for the month and a 2nd 4* after Cho.

He's the best there is at what he does, and what he does is deliver presents! Also some murder. Mostly the murdering, really.

so...wolvie claus or santa claws?

ps. I'd vote for no release over major holidays too but not holding my breath - its their SOP.

Launch 4 * during Christmas's dinner.

TxMoose

um...ok I'm thinking an average group of mpq players would look very different than that pic lol

slidecage

if pattern goes back to normal i could see releases on

Dec 17 and 31th (if there is a 31th release) every 2 week the pattern was

really dont care when they come out BUT it would be nice if they would give us a few week warning.. Dont know why they like hiding info so much its not like we are going to make our own Marvel Block questie thingie and steal their ideas
