Boss Battle frequency (poll)

Redrobot30

Simple question. How often would you like to see Alliance events take place within a year time frame. Seems like every one of us love these events as they promote Alliance teamwork and they are usually pretty fun to play.

Personally I think Quarterly would be great. Not too far apart and not too close to where the Devs might think we are getting too many good rewards on a frequent basis.

I'd run one in between PvP seasons. It's a perfect lax time to focus on going all out on a boss.

How bout this calendar, to align PVE and PVP cycles?

. . . . . . PVE . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . PVP
Wk 1 ... 7-day "no pressure" event . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3* events 1-3
WK 2 ... 3-day event / 4-day 4* release . . . . . . . . . . . . 3* events 4-6
Wk 3 ... Weeklong double iso event . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4* event / 3* events 7-8
Wk 4 ... 4-day event / 3-day boss battle 5* release . . . . 3* event 9 / Offseason Event 1-2

A monthly event would be great I agree, I guess I was playing devil's advocate and thinking what the Devs would likely grant us.

My initial thought was every other month, but I really like what you have laid out here. Maybe slip in one Growth Industry-type event as well. Very nice.

Who are you, a player, or a dev?? What do you want as a player?

Personally, as a player, I want these events every other week....

I want Ultron and Galactus as 5* playable villains....

I want more iso.

I want a 1 up button.

I want the ability to share cards with alliance like a tcg.....

I want scaling to be fixed in line with 5* characters whose rosters are all below 200....

I want a chat system that actually works.

I want something more than rngesus for money spent....

I want a whisper system in chat...

I want, I want, I want....

Until everyone quits playing, I, like you, will continue to play, and love, the game.

Once a month is far too frequent for me. Just my opinion, over-saturation gets old fast and fighting house party protocol gets stale even faster.

Smudge

Once a month might be okay, but it could be pushing it for being a little too frequent what with the push for new characters still happening. Two a month is by far too many on a regular basis... between all the new character releases and two boss events, this past month was very burnout-inducing.

Aesth's schedule could be quite promising though. I'd be on board with something like that. My vote is still every other month, but I'd get behind his idea too.

This would be amazing. As a commander who promotes chatter between my Alliance mates (without using Line) I would love having an actual conversation without super long lag.

Well they could use all the boss battles so far so we would fight each boss every third month. Ultron/Galactus/Civil War

Ctenko

Please not every month. I could not handle that. Seriously, twice a year is great. That's the point where everyone finds them special, where everyone kinda looks forward to it, and it has lots of time for build up.

Run it every month, and people will get sick of it quite soon I imagine.

No matter how much I'd like three Four Star covers, and an LT every month.

Bummer that "Once a Month" is the lowest time-frame I can vote for.

It's PVE on progression! Where you can get three covers (what a way to release the new 4*'s!). Wish they'd run them with every new release, at least.

veny

To be 100% honest? I would prefer one by one... same as PvE events. Why not? Rounds are time-limited, do not consume as much time as usual PvE events. But this would need some reward revamp, sure...

Eichen

Needs a voting option for every 4 or 5 star new character release.

Even if not a boss battle for all new releases they could at least do like ant man and garbage hulk events for release.

Jarvind

Voted once a month. And I would 100% be down with all new character releases being done this way.

Hell, I never got to see Ultron and I'm still hoping they re-run him at some point.

smkspy

I could once a month but no picking a side either have it as fighting cap, IM, galactus, or Ultron.
