    Seeing the same thing.

    just another regular day where the devs devalue our roster and nerf the 3*.

    It's not mentioned in the patch notes.

    That's a seriously bad stealth-nerf.

    It may just be a bug not a nerf. I would assume bug with all the other changes being spelled out.

    Falcon's Redwing doing the same thing. It used to be three turns and now is four.

    And "I've got a plan" went off the turn it was cast for the AI.

    I'm on iOS and have the same problem since the update earlier today.

    Along these same lines, Falcon's Redwing, which is supposed to be a 3-turn countdown, starts at 4 turns (mentioned this in the Release Notes, too).

    This update has a bunch of "countdown" fixes that obviously effected other things in error

    Play on Android. Happening to me too. Both Scarlet Witch & Falcon are putting out 4 turn tiles instead of 3 turn tiles.

    This is clearly a switch glitch.

    Before the update, didn't the CD get created directly before your move? now it adds it after the enemy turn? Cuz it seems longer to fire off at the wrong time too!

    Either way... It says 3 turn tile but the number is 4.

    Best screenshot guys....

    Bugged powers. I think it is happening all over the place, but sometimes it's hard to notice. For example, yesterday I was playing with Shulk. I have her at 5 Green covers. I fired it off twice, which should have reduced 4 of their colors to 0. I looked to see if I had wiped out the color I was going for. Only 2 of their colors had been reduced to 0.

    I think that some powers, if you have them at 5 covers, are acting like you have 3 covers.

    I think the Hammer soldiers are affected as well. (yay!)

    They used to have 4-turn pinks and 5-turn greens, but now the pinks are 5-turns as well!

    But boo that it's affecting SW and our characters.

    this affected many team strategies during last night's grind. it borked using her with jean, rulk, winfinite. this really needs to be fixed.

    and stop updating during critical times in release events!!! please. it really messes things up when there's bugs - and that is far too often.

    saddest part is that it took an update to break it, it may take until the next update to fix it... so we may be stuck with it for a while.

    This wouldn't be an official patch if it didn't break something completely unrelated to the stuff that was getting patched... nor would it be an official patch if it didn't have bugs that are immediately obvious to anyone who's actually playing.

    Well, Falcon was in bad need of a nerf anyway icon_e_wink.gif

    So are we also getting extra turns on CDs we'd want, like XDP, or is this only affecting the CDs that we want to expire asap?

    Haha yeah. Star-lord and XFDP countdowns are now a turn SHORTER.

    Just kidding.

    EDIT: Just so I'm being constructive; BPs defense grid seems to be working normally. This may only affect CDs that are placed passively. Anger and Life of the Party would also be suspect, although I haven't tried them.

    It appears to affect passive CD's that occur at the end of everyone's turn. So CD tiles that are placed as a result of a power or some other move (like Hulks' anger or XFDP's life of the party) would not be affected. Trying to deduce from their list of bug fixes what could have caused this but man this is poor QA. Does no one march out a few of the more popular characters to see if they work properly? And the timing of their deploy could not be much worse (last day of a new release? Really??)

    Would be nice to get some sort of acknowledgement from D3/a red whether this is, in fact, a bug or somehow a horrible new "feature".
