Have you honestly left nothing to do?!

An off season PVP.

That's it?

Can we all have a 24hr extention on our stored covers then, since we can't do anything to earn the assorted resources the player base needs?

    I have something to do.

    Go out and enjoy one of the last weekends in the (Northern Hemisphere) summer!

    If I didn't do that, I'd still have something to do.

    Play a different game!

    But then, that's what I do every time my health packs run out. I guess the Devs don't really care if I play a different game, get addicted to it, decide to put my money there.....

    I'm not usually someone who calls for compensation for minor oversights, but turning off an entire gameplay mode for a day with no notice is a bit more than a minor oversight.

    Everything we would have gotten for 4 clears would probably be a bit much, but there should be some level of compensation.

    I'd accept a Webbed Wonder token and some ISO. One more chance to get a Howard cover seems like adequate compensation.

    That's not too unreasonable, SOMETHING to help out since the game is set up to push us into maintaining daily momentum.

    Yeah, I wish this had been pointed out while they were in office. Damage control is still possible though.

    You must not live in the southeastern US. You don't "enjoy" summer, you endure it.

    A bunch of iso and a blue Howard cover (T10 reward this time round so less likely to be maxed) seems like a suitable level of compensation. icon_mrgreen.gif

    I'm about 10k away from championing Beast, and have a cover expiring in the queue with no way to level him up. WTG, devs.

    This REALLY sucks.

    Wait for them to admit to the mistake, then open a ticket explaining the problem and requesting a replacement cover.

    Beat a team in SHIELD Simulator with IM40, Steve Rogers, KK and wait for the attacks.
    Retaliate and beat the last team with them again. Rinse and repeat. You'd get your 10k in less than 2 days.
    Unfortunately the SHIELD Simulator closes down tomorrow...

    A lot of entitlement in this thread. "I demand extra stuff since you gave us a break."

    "Given us a break."

    "Unplugged the game we were expecting to play without warning".

    "Tom-ay-toes."

    "Tom-ah-toes".

    I AM extra grouchy today though. Sat at home and about to get some painkillers in me now, so I will likely chill out :p

    If you're upset about the incredibly small break on a free to play mobile game, I think you have a problem.

    If it's free, why does it cost me money?

    I'm no whale, but I've got my VIP and I'll drop a Logan's Loonies every month or two to help with my roster.

    Does the arguement therefore go "don't bother spending money, it will **** out at random anyway"?

    You choose to spend money. Its not a cost to play. And again, its an incredibly small break. Imagine if you told a child, "No dessert today, we ran out," and they cried up a storm about it. Would you say the child had a problem? Absolutely. Might want to reassess your incredible over-reaction to an incredibly minor incident.

    If I paid for a desert, then they told me there was none, I would at the very least expect my money back for that desert.

    I don't think you understand what my problem is. I DO pay for this game. I'm having a bad day, and wanted to play my game. I am unable to play my game today for reasons beyond my control.

    Okay, I'm going to be buying Pokemon Sun/Moon this year. It is going to cost me less than I spent on MPQ (to be depressingly honest, you could chuck a new console on top for the money I've spent over near a year). THAT game will not arbitrarily be unplayable on a day I wanted the distraction without warning.

    Do you not understand my point of view here?

    Back in my day, we had breaks between every pve. People complained when the devs decided to change that...
