    I'm with you on this. I can use 2 of the 3 covers myself. I happen to have 5 purpleflag.png already.

    I love these events - it's my best chance to get a large number of 4 star.png covers. Beyond that it shows the alliance teamwork. Hopefully the feeder nodes don't have ridiculous scaling!

    I agree I'm only 5/2/0 for profX

    Not everyone has every cover...

    PS when does this start ??

    EST is the time zone on the US East Coast. So yes, US time, for parts of the US at least.

    It would be really good for a dev to comment here and tell us that either "Yes, Ultron will coming in less than an hour" or "No, we have to delay it until ????".

    I am really not a fan of Ultron taking turns. Seems like this ruins the nice puzzle that Ultron used to be.

    Thanks for making Wolverine an essential and then not using him in the side matches. Now I've got to go scrounge up a Hawkeye cover or be **** for the entire event.

    Edit: Anyone else seeing Ultron's health not decreasing on the event screen?

    Double Edit: Ignore the above, I think it just got stuck when the round finished.

    FYI, Kate Bishop does not count as Hawkeye and that stinks.

    Anyone know if Ultron unlocks when a new round starts yet?

    I just grabbed the 1* version. Should get interesting when the difficulty scales up.

    I always keep a stash of 2* covers in my unclaimed rewards queue so I had a Hawkeye, but this seems like an oversight.

    Well that sucks. Didn't he unlock the first time they ran this? I could have sworn he did then.

    Yep, he did. And called that this would happen as part of the "streamlining".
