    My shield intercepts have largely dried up. Did my entire initial 4 clears in pve without a single one. Why place a cap at 20 times if you are never going to reach that anyway??

    It doesn't really matter, since any SHIELD intercept you see is just going to result in an error and no reward. Yeah, empirical evidence yada yada yada, but I did my final grind clearing (almost?) everything down to green checks and didn't get a single one to work correctly (to be fair, I'd say my success rate in getting them to work over the weekend was closer to 50%).

    Perhaps the errors exist intentionally, to force you to buy V.I.P. where there are no errors and it is all glory for the small price of $$$.

    I had no errors all weekend. Today, playing on a different tablet with MUCH less memory? Errors every time.

    Meh. Win some, lose some. I'm telling myself they were all going to be 250 Iso.

    I had errors all Sunday morning, but Sunday evening they were working... it was so weird.

    I had one this morning and literally no others at all for the entire day, and I definitely played for about 5 more hours (I know, that is way too much for a mobile game). That's gotta be wrong, right?

    Can we stop with the tinfoil-hat conspiracy posts? icon_rolleyes.gif Honestly, we can see in so many ways how bugs crop up in this game endlessly and how long it takes to have them fixed. Does anyone honestly think Demiurge is going to squander their limited resources coming up with ways to deliberately screw the players? Get real.

    I didn't have errors the last few days. I'm positive that this is not trying to pressure us into getting VIP. Bugs happen some time. Beside, we didn't have ads before, and somehow we still pulled through. We'll be able to pull through with partial or full ads as well.

    I still seem to be getting errors, though they feel less frequent. I've been force closing the app after a few successful ones as I've a theory it's only occurring when the app has been left running for a while. This seems to be helping, but isn't fool proof.

    Since update, no errors at all, but 250 iso8 is more frequent.

    Barely get anything now. No failures but rarely any rewards either. I did get 100hp and 2000 iso when they did come though, so better than a poke in the eye with a pointy stick.

    Yep, seems like with each passing day 250 iso is becoming more and more frequent. I just assume that they give a heroic token instead of 250 iso. It's worth the same amount and at least there is the slight gamble of something better.

    I'm still getting a good variety of rewards. I've been logging them since they started, and I get a decent mix of HP, HT, CP and Iso. I've had much more HP in the last couple of days, and am heartily thankful for it.

    The lack of it is enough to make me abandon my Steam noob account, though.

    so i'm quite literally the only one not getting these anymore?

    maybe i'll get some compensation?

    with these intercepts/video ads, are they live streaming as they play?

    or are they downloaded at some point (daily data push or patch, etc.) and then played from your game/phone storage?

    just curious if it matters for my phone data usage. I try to play on wifi only, but obviously sometimes i don't.

    sorry if this has been addressed.

    I would assume they are live streaming. The game probably using the ios/android api to bring up ads

    It's not live stream for sure. One can say, it works similar way as watching Youtube, with simple application to view the film incorporated to the MPQ game.
