    First round, new character event gives Winter Soldier, then Civil War progression gives Winter Soldier.

    So why not:

    Second round, new character event gives Warmachine, then Civil War progression gives War machine?

    Is Warmachine potentially too good for a mass prize? Was Winter Soldier cruddy enough to be a mass prize?

    The first CW run didn't give Winter Soldier for progression. I wish it had, but my alliance cleared all rounds of Team Cap and never got one from that event, just the PVE before it.


    Did it for round rewards? I may remember it totally wrong.

    Alas, no. It would have been nice to do it that way for both runs, but FalCap was the 4* round progression rewards for Team Cap.

    That's right! I forgot, it was Falcap. Well, I guess all is well. Sorry!

    This right here is exactly the type of ignorant, frankly spiteful changes that the devs make with no regard to the players. Eliminate a fun, powerful, well covers character for most players and replace with either **** ones or ones with few covers. Once again an unfair advantage for anyone who did Team IM in round one.

    Another fine reason never to put money into this game. This bahvior should not be rewarded.

    Simple answer remove Mr F instead

    This is frankly a pathetic answer from the devs - forget relative power for a sec - it's IM vs Cap with the best IM not boosted

    Yeah, this. Who in their right mind is going to use Mr. Fantastic against a stun-immune boss? (Setting aside whether it would be sane to use Dr. Richards against a boss who can be stunned)

    Wow, just wow!!!

    Now I am outraged! So Fury and Reed are ok but IMHB it is not! This is complete ****. And Quake ? She was not part of the comics, and she was not part of the movie, but hey! she is part of MPQ Civil War!!!

    Man, I dont know what else to say, Devs keep laughing in our face every single time.

    It does make you wonder if they really do sit around the office concocting new ways to annoy the players. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever why a version of Iron Man should not be boosted in an Iron Man event.

    lol wouldn't have been better to get rid of Mr. Fantastic than an actual IM character?

    And the legendary token and last 4* cover was switched ok i might be ok with a 3/1/1 antman or 2/1/1 quake if we get that far but rather have a nice token that would give a random 4*... So no boosted hulkbuster cause what 2 or 3 maybe 4 alliances finshed both sides wow someone is icon_redface.gif

    Well wonder who's going to buy the devs a nice rock...

    Personal progression has been nerfed from 1.228 million to 790k, this causes me too believe they greatly cut points/victory

    I thought it was interesting that there was no mention of any change that would prevent people from completing both sides again. I bet you're right and they just conveniently omitted that part.

    This would also indicate that the boss will have lower levels than before right? Since the "points" per win are the bosses hp.

    This is **** hilarious. I'm sorry you're the one who had to deliver this giant pile of manure.

    Not necessarily, I think it was Galactus had more health than points/victory, something like .8:1

    re: HB "phased out"

    Why can't they look at how the "participation" was for last event, and say "Gee, it seemed very imbalanced because 80% of the alliances went Team IM because they had HB's, and Team Cap didn't have an equivalent", and they didn't want a repeat of that?

    I cruised through the IM node w/ my championed HB+champed 3* Cyc+Hood (and I imagine very one else who had them did the same thing).

    So they want to force players use a different team (because they want it to be a challenge), for a 5* reward (!). Who can blame them?

    Does the quit and reload thing work with this event? Back during the dark days of impossible events (e.g. Galactus first run), if you were going to lose a boss battle you could force-close the application, start it back up and retry the same battle (lost some health, but node stayed open).

    If that trick still works, and if the dev's kindness to us is as bad as prophesised, then I can see many people using it...

    I think this is actually to players benefit. This should make it easier to transition from one side to the other without hurting the individual.

    I know personally I was short of the 1.228m when we finished Team IM in the first run, so I had to 'waste' points finishing that while we moved on to Cap.

    Since the devs answered that question, here's another non-inflammatory question that hopefully they can answer as well: Why does team Iron Man only get 4 buffed 4*s, when team cap gets 5?
