What are the new SHIELD Intercepts?

Hey all! I track the SHIELD Intercepts because I'm a compulsive data hoarder. I'll post my results from the old system on a different thread, but since I use a code to track the intercepts, I need to know what's out there so I know how to change the code. Today I've gotten eight intercepts, 6 were 500 Iso, 2 were 2000. My gut says they've probably doubled the iso, so those were probably the hits for 250 and 1000 Iso respectively, but I'd like to know for sure. I'd like to know if anyone's gotten 250, 1000 or 4000 Iso...

If anyone is interested in my coding system, I basically made it 1 for Iso, 2 for HP, 3 for CP, and 4 for tokens. In the Iso, 1a was 250, 1b was 1000, 1c was 2000. For the HP, 1a was 10, 1b 25, and 1c 100 (very rare, about .5%.) 3 is 1 CP, 4 is a Heroic token. I then used 0 to indicate no reward - I wanted to see how often the rewards came since they stated the chance for a reward goes down the more rewards you get. So, for example, yesterday looked like this:

1b 2b 0 0 0 0 1b 0 0 0 1b 3 0 0 0 1b 0 0 2b 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1b 0 0 1a 0 0 1c 0 2a 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1b 0 0 0 0 0 0

So my first reward was 1000 Iso, then 25 HP, then three nodes with no rewards, then another 1000 Iso, etc.

So anyway, what have people gotten so far?

    Tiny sample size since I just did DDQ but I got 3 intercepts in 5 missions for 10HP, 1 Elite token and 1 Heroic token.

    Update - Did another 19 nodes in PVE and got the following:

    3x 500 ISO
    2x Elite Token
    1x 2000 ISO

    So in 24 possible attempts I got 9 rewards most of which dropped in the first 12 fights.

    There, that's out the way. Carry on, chaps!

    I didn't count the nodes, but will tomorrow.

    So far today I got:

    500 iso x 4
    2000 iso x 1
    elite x 1

    I was hesitant to even mention the 500 vs 250 issue, but it's out there now.

    Heh, I hear you. Hopefully they intended to double the Iso, and it didn't (somehow) reactivate the double Iso from last week.

    I didn't remember what I've got. But it was certainly less than before!
    It means just 5-6 Intercepts for about 60+ matches in PVE instead of 20 icon_e_sad.gif

    I've only hit one so far today. It was for 1000 ISO.

    I've received 250 ISO several times today. Unless I'm missing an update, they didn't double the ISO. My game says i'm running R117.

    I haven't received an intercept reward since they updated it. I am on a Kindle device, so I guess amazon store users are grouped up with the Steam guys now?

    guess this is another middle finger to steam users ... so glad no longer putting cash into this game and never see ever doing again
    though with almost 30,000 hp there is no reason to even spend anything more

    I suspect the intercepts are based on ip address. This morning I woke up and joined a fresh bracket of iso8 brotherhood and began my 6x clears. The first 10 mins had very frequent intercepts (had both a 2000 iso and a 1000 iso in the mix). Then for about 60 mins there were none. All this was while I was playing at home on wifi. As I head in to work, playing on the train commute for another 40 mins or so, I kept getting more frequent intercepts. Many of which were 1000 iso. Which leads me to believe, the server thinks I've started a new session when my ip address will no doubt have changed as my 4G is locked on to different towers.

    Since new rewards started yesterday,I've gotten 10 and 25 hps,250,500,1000 and 2000 isos.heroics and elite tokens and a command pt.only missing the 100 hp.so looks like the elites and the 500 iso were the only additions.no subtractions unless the 100 hp is gone,but that was always the rarest for me anyways,so I think it's probably still around as well.

    I got 100 hp today so it's still out there.

    I haven't gotten 250 ISO since the update, but have gotten 500, 1000, and 2000. Looks like maybe they replaced the 250 ISO with 500 ISO? I've also got at least 2 HTs and only 1 ET yesterday.

    Couldn't tell you. I haven't seen a single one since the patch.
