Upcoming Patch Preview - R50 Discussion

Unknown

I am in aggrement there needs to be a notification about a new chat. too easy to just ignore.

But at least with the points, I can tell if my alliance is doing anything.

Adding my voice to the "these new crit tiles are horrible" chorus. They look like they were taken out from a very, very low-grade Las Vegas slot machine.

With regard to the 25 HP daily resupplies, those have not supplanted any formerly guaranteed heroic tokens or covers, have they?

I know this goes away after a while, but I'd have to think there are better ways to handle the data needed to run the game.

It's really a one time unavoidable thing to switch over to the R50+ way of doing things. There were quite a few assets that had to get shuffled around in how and when they load. Several smaller loading screens was looked at as a better method of doing so than pushing though a 90MB initial download then another 100+ in a batch as the data files get redownloaded in bulk before the user can play at all.

I got a random 50 hero points today, with a guaranteed 25 in 3 days.

That's good if they haven't removed the random 50HP reward.

I'm not sure what day you are on, Beezer, but can you still see your guaranteed tokens or covers in the future week or so?

Nope, they supplanted the random rewards for a few of the days.

Don't you mean a guaranteed 500 in 1 day 21 hours?

I see 25 hp on day 170, and heroics on 171 and 178

I agree completely. The new crit tile just seems egregiously out of place with the rest of the art direction. I think the whole point of replacing the tile was to make it more obvious that it was a multi color match, but now it just looks like a low quality Myspace gif.

Thanks to all for the answers on the daily resupply!

That new Crit icon is absolutely horrific looking....

There's a special prize if you can get 22 of them up on the board at the same time.

Does the board magically morph into a fir tree to show off these new blinking Christmas lights?

Is it just me, or does it seem to load a bit slower (on an iphone 5s)

Yes it does. Blame the new crit tile, it's at least 5 times bigger AND uglier than the old one

A couple of questions:
1. Was there a change in Steve Roger's haircut? (Serious question) It feels like it to me
2. I agree new crit tile looks like it was taken from a cheap toy but I can handle that. Not too important. Oops. Not a question.

I'm very pleased with the UI changes, alliance chat and clarity on points. I especially like the addition of mouse scroll support

- The top three Alliance players in an Event are indicated by trophies next to their names on the Alliance Leaderboards. S.H.I.E.L.D. congratulates the top performers!

Where is this on iOS? I must be blind because I sure can't find it.

Go to the event. Click on Alliance Rank. Click on Your Rank. Click on your alliance's score. Note: you can see any alliance point contributors.

Perfect! Thanks! That is totally not obvious in any way.
