    D3, do you still feel that making the 5star level luck based was the right decision? What are your plans for those with less than average luck?

    I can tell you I have way below average luck and have no 5 stars. We are discussing this and will update when we have something!

    Let's do it like they used to ask one question per post and then upvote any questions you would like to see answered (ignored)
    I'll start:

    Why have there been no Double ISO events in over a year?
    We used to have Double ISO PvP every once in a while.
    Could we have some back please?

    We have been discussing the ISO issue and I will discuss this with the team tomorrow to find out. Thank you!

    Thank you cthulhu for responding to this thread. We eagerly await more information from the development team.

    Just checking back in to see how the conversation with the team went? Any word on the ISO shortage fix? Please don't say we are working on it

    As much as I want an answer like yesterday give the guy some time. It is an issue that had plagued the game for over a year now, Cthulu is highly unlikely to magic an answer over a weekend.

    Thanks for the suggestion on double ISO. The team is considering this for an upcoming event (this is not a promise!).

    Bagman? We just got trolled.

    Edit: I just looked at his history and saw the intro post. Hi Bagman!

    Double ISO would be great! It used to happen once every few months. I don't think it's happened in maybe 1.5 years. I'd love to have it back! I remember when special rewards would flow more regularly.. I miss those days! Thanks for your response! Good to hear from a red!

    I have a question:

    What is with the devs love affair with the critical boost? The game passed that particular reward by about 18 months ago. I don't mind them being handed out randomly along with the other boosts, but to continually see them as rewards for hard nodes in PvE is insulting.

    Hello everyone,

    We do have a double ISO event coming soon! Check our social posts etc for more details as we lock in the dates (it's really soon, promise).

    We are also reviewing a lot of stuff that people have been writing to us about, it's at the top of our priority and we are working on it, but we do not have a release date or any set in stone solutions at the moment.

    We will provide updates as soon as we can!

    Could I go so far as to say...I think a lot of the community would be just fine if we had literally 0 new characters for, say...2 months?
    If the only updates we got were game based like improving scaling, improving ISO drops, improving prizes and so on and so on, diverting a lot of the design and programming attention away from new move sets and so on and instead focussing on making this game overall more enjoyable and rewarding to play, I think people would be okay with it.

    I'm aware these are all different departments in the dev cycle, but the art guys could still do some work by, say, improving some of theold character art, maybe? And the character moveset guys must have expertise elsewhere they can utilise.

    Just put a break on the flow of new characters for a while and fix the core elements of the game...maybe?

    Seriously, though, I sincerely hope I'm wrong.

    What is concerning me is that this is a double iso "event" which suggests that it is TEMPORARY. The iso shortage isn't going away anytime soon and is a PERMANENT problem.

    Cthulu, is there anything in the works for a PERMANENT solution for the PERMANENT problem?

    How about just double ISO? There are too many players sitting with 10+ 4* at 13 covers and can only level one every 3-4 weeks and that is with grinding many hours of the game. There is a lot of HP, CP, and covers in the game right now but the one resource needed to progress you roster is so scarce for higher end players. The champion featured gave us an opportunity to get many more 4* covers but there was no increase in ISO. In fact the champion feature is an ISO loan to the Devs where we get paid our ISO back over time, but the interest is paid in CP, HP, and covers. I just sold a Falcap cover because I have a 14th Thing cover and a 14th iceman cover sitting in my queue as I am trying to gain the ISO necessary to champion one of the 2. I am also sitting on CP that I don't want to pull because I am turning 20 CP into 1000 ISO, since I have so few 4* left to cover.

    Please come out with a more permanent solution the double ISO event is appreciated but it is like putting a bandaide on a bullet wound, it is not going to stop the bleeding.
