    Is no one else worried that they're going to bring their precious scaling metrics and tight fisted reward schematics to DDQ and make it just as unpalatable as other PvE experiences?

    "Here's a daily 4* node, 6 waves of level 350 Ultron Sentries! Complete the node and receive 1 4* chip, exchange 5 chips for one 4* cover of the featured character! Enjoy!"
    whoa, this would make a lot of choices indefinitely easier.

    And we are not certain yet that it will be a daily 4* reward. I still somewhat doubt that. Anyway - the US is only waking up (maybe drinking coffee) so let's give them a bit of time to deliver the announcement. It will not go live today anyway (probably on Thursday earliest with the patch? aren't they usually on Thursdays?)

    I Believe at least parts of the management are on West Coast time too, so we probably won't hear anything for several more hours.
    There's usually a patch on Tuesdays, it can screw up your Lightning round seed teams if you aren't careful. icon_e_smile.gif

    I'm pretty certain we are not getting a daily 4* from DDQ, but some number of CP available.

    But then I was pretty certain another event would have started opposite The Gauntlet.
  • Looks like they replaced the deadpool graphic with the old DPD graphic. So they are going to cover it up?

    Keep in mind that the old graphic always changed on 4* Challenge day. Those four yellow stars around the bonus node are not normally there. My guess is that the reversion is not a true reversion, but just switching to the normal day 5 screen and will go back to super-chalk drawing background tomorrow.

    There is generally a data push every business day between 4:30 and 5:30, Eastern Time. They do a full update every two weeks - we're not due one of those until a week from today. I expect they'll give us some clue to what it's likely later this week, and we'll get the full version on the next patch, after they introduce Coulson this weekend.

    New characters are included in the full update (which is why they give hints when they post about the patch.) Changing DDQ doesn't necessarily need to be done in the full update (it's just an event, after all, they can tweak those without either a patch or data push,) but they probably will. If there's any kind of new code (something that isn't a part of established events,) it definitely will be a patch.

    Brigby is active now, any chance we can get a more official update on DDQ change?

    We all have bosses , I suspect that Brigby was told to remove them by somebody so you can't hold him responsible.

    At least we know there are changes coming

    Tuesday now so we will no doubt get the promised update from brigby in the next few hours icon_e_smile.gif

    I see the Deadpool background is back to normal, i think it was the "redacted" version this morning.....but i blew through DPD so i dont really remember.

    so, i think the next DPD is the same format. we may just learn what the update is starting tomorrow.

    New info about DDQ under the"Help" button within the game! Good changes overall: Easier BE, More Iso, CP node, Crash available everyday

    So, an extra 2 CP a day, a third taco, and the Crash is available every day (but still only resets once every five).

    Gutted, I was hoping for a 4* version of the Big E that rewarding a 4* cover on rotation. Or a crash everyday even if they made it a 4* only token lottery.

    Yeah, an extra spin of the RNG wheel of misfortune once every 10 days is a bit underwhelming.
