  • I couldn't understand why Ares was getting Green so easily then realised it was his minions.

    I think Ares/Green minion/Green minion would be actually impossible at 230

    When does the first sub end?

    Just gone past 19 hours left (18h 56m). I believe they are 26 hour subs - similar to TaT

    Thanks! Time to plan when to join this thing...
  • I won all 3 Psylocke covers and I still can't say I like that she required. I win max amount if her and she is required immediately after. A lvl 15 1/1/1 fighting enemies starting out at too high of level. There's gotta be a better way to handle introducing new covers into events.
  • Psylocke is major boosted so she's about level 115. She probably still seems weak because all her abilities are at level 1 and do very little damage.
  • Is it better to get in a bracket with crazy people in this event? I was thinking they could fill up the bars quicker.
  • Yeah it's goofy in a "communal" points gathering event that they choose to lock away sub events from people without the proper cover.

    Since um...I and all of us without psylocke would be helping the greater good by playing these sub events!!!!!
  • I love this game, let me just say that, also I'm addicted, but I do think it's silly to have to use Daredevil in a match against goons who only lay timers and do not move tiles at all. (Peru.)

    It's interesting to duo it while DD takes a lunch break, I guess.
  • Yeah requiring Psylocke in these missions just to get to the end really sucks.

    For a few sheckles you could place well. Just a couple of bucks in IAP. Every week. For every new event.
  • lol, after one battle against lv30 Subjects, all my missions became 230s, this is so great.
  • Truthfully, I'm not bothered that Psylocke is required. I've been playing MPQ long enough to know that it was likely she was going to be required for whatever the next event was. So I made a choice, and busted my hump to grind for ten days to make sure I had at least one cover. (I finished 24th, and got two.) The way I see it, this is my reward for seeing Simulator through to the end, busted scaling and all.

    I'm enjoying Episode 4 a bit more than simulator, in that it's a bit more of a relaxed pace. I've seen a few complaints here about the relative lack of nodes. I get that, but for me this is better as it returns the game a little bit back to 'casual' mode, which is what I prefer. If I'm having to grind 3-4 hours at a time to stay competitive, truthfully, I'd be better playing something on a console. This game is supposed to be casual - having 4-5 nodes is a positive step in that direction for me.

    I can't tell if you are being sarcastic or not, but let's just say, they get enough of my money...
  • I agree that it sucks that they require new characters for certain missions, although at this point it is expected.

    I'd be more angry about it, but I have had really good luck pulling the required characters from tokens. I didn't get any Daredevil covers from Thick as Thieves, but then pulled one from the event token in the progress awards for the Oscorp Heroic. Then today, I had the same luck. I didn't win any Pyslocke covers from Simulator, but pulled one from the Assault team token I got as a progression award.

    Really miss Hulk-Hunt times without scaling. Those were best PvE on my memory.

    We all do. Except the devs.

    The good times, I miss it so much. Another PVE I don't have to care about and just play casually for the ISO.

    These progression bars in subs are interesting, although I don't see how we're ever getting Peru.

    Psylocke was just downed in three turns vs Daken, Moonstone, and whoever else. I am struggling in this event so far. The constant 230 opponents are becoming slightly annoying...My roster compared to others isn't that impressive either.

    I'm not actually sure how to play this with scaling in place: I can repeatedly grind stacks down, but that just leads to the inevitable 230s... hmm....

    Yeah, I've kind of just done one quick run on all the nodes and waiting til the end to do all the reps to hopefully prevent the scaling a bit.
    Although the community scaling is still causing it to go up pretty fast.

    They always seem to "underestimate" the ammount of people playing and how this affects the scaling.
    Even if they overestimated it just once maybe, at least people wouldn't have to grind 230's so much and might as a result have a bit more fun with it.
    Eh. :/

    I kind of expect to see a wall of 230's before the event is done.

    These subs are pretty competitive though... I think I'm going to do each mission twice for 2 refresh periods for the tokens. Chances at Psylocke after all, especially given how theres no way I'm going to be able to win the 1* tournament this weekend...
