Where did X Force Yellow go in shield sim?

alphabeta

Have I missed something - was xfw yellow now GR black?

I know a lot of vets weren't happy but as a non vet I'm now unhappy - my xfw is equal highest covered 4* and that yellow would have left me 1 short.

Surely if it was a mistake it would have been corrected sooner so if it's bowing to pressure (which it looks like) couldn't you have just added the GR cover in at 2500 or something.

While xfw may no longer be the best 4* the prospect of nearly having him cover vs adding 1 cover to my 3 covers on GR is pretty galling - silent minority/majority losing out and now I have to comment on every thread on forums where vets want something to make sure the other side is heard - thanks for that, grinning over Christmas was already fun enough without now adding forum lurking to my to do list

It's possible that the change had nothing to do with forum comments and GR was always intended for that reward. GR does fit the existing pattern of putting a recently released character there.

It does suck for the people who actually wanted the XFW cover, though.

It was definitely them bowing to pressure.

Sorry that didn't work out for you.

I 1000% believe it's bowing to pressure or it would have been changed in a day not nearly a week into the season

What? It was changed? I needed that cover!

Remember when they told everyone about that exploit that had been going on for 2 years? They handled it poorly and lost a lot of trust, so now they're trying to get some back.

I think that both this change and the Venom nerf are examples of Demiurge quickly giving in to forum reactions. Then they can say "look, we quickly changed that thing you didn't like".

fixed it for you.

If you really want those xf covers, try harder to get more LTs (from pve). Xf seems to be a very common pull from those tokens.

That yellow X-Force was the last cover I needed. I actually started toward it yesterday and got 1/3 of the way there. One GR cover helps me not at all. Changing existing rewards really messes things up, IMO.

Mine is 2/3/1 on day 543, so 1/1/1 came from dailies, if I've ever received any from progression, it's only been one or two. Stop pulling my covers

I'm assuming GR was supposed to be the 2000 cover because that follows the pattern of the 2k cover being of a 4* released in the previous season

I wonder if anyone managed to get to 2k before it switched.

Did anyone have a screenshot of the 2k reward? I started towards it a couple days ago because I actually need it for my xforce it will make mine 5/5/2 so I plan on contacting customer service

....Really?

Your XF is as usable as he's going to get. That last yellow will make almost ZERO difference. Even being able to fully level your XF won't make much of a difference.

Where's the thread where they stated that? I can't seem to find it.
