    yeah, that kinda blows with that update. I could have seen allowing a 12 hour window after the event to cash in the token as that's token's event ??? In other words. After Smash event ends I would have 12 or say 24 hours to cash it in for Smash token otherwise it converts. I have a feeling that they were trying to fix the problem of it switching to heroic right after the event costing people that event's token, however they have just created another problem, being forced to use a token you don't want.
  • i see nothing new from my download.

    Can't we have an option 'Save the event token'/'Discard the eventness and turn to heroic'?

    If only I could receive tribute from all 4 of my alliances! This is he only feature I am interested in, and as far as alliance features it doesn't really come into the top 10 most wanted by anyone. How about you guys code a demote button? It shouldn't be so hard, you just switch an attribute in a SQL db. Do it... Do it!

    Wait. Can one guy be in SEVERAL alliances at the same time???

    No.

    The R51 patch is up in the Google Play store.

    Alliance members are reporting daily alliance login bonuses of (25 ISO * # of people who played yesterday in alliance [collecting daily reward as a qualifier?]), capping out at 500 ISO per alliance member at 20 members (25 * 20 = 500).

    Also the types of events are now clearly called out on the event cards. For example, Smash Hit now portrays a green border with a "Versus" tag on it.


    I got the patch on my PC client but I am not seeing anything about the alliance daily bonus... where did you see something about it?

    EDIT: So I had got the patch earlier right before the end of the venom event and I noticed that versus green banner but loading it up again now, its back to normal. Still says R51 though. Only thing diff I notice is that in the event rewards tab it shows progression rewards first now and you have to scroll down to see the overall event winnings. Also, the prologue now has black widow event tokens.

    I'm a bit perturbed by this change to the tokens. I don't understand why they didn't just include the option to keep or revert the token. It makes no sense to force people to cash in a token for a pool of characters they may have no use for.

    Did Putin force this change?
  • IceIX, this has probably been answered before, but why are balance changes so far and few between? Even if the devs are nervous about changes, couldn't they make quite small changes frequently and monitor statistics?
  • I have two questions if anyone would be so kind and answer them:

    1. What is MotD?
    2. Where/how do we see event history?

    I don't know if I've ever seen it used before these notes, but I'm pretty sure it is Message of the Day.

    Ooh, the store got a facelift. Interesting that $20 in HP and $50 in ISO are popular choices.

    I said I had 4 alliances, one can only be in one alliance at any time. Psyko jumps from alliance to alliance like nightcrawler!

    I thinking it will be more a case of sitting on a token you can't use hoping they'll update it someday in the future so you can use it.

    Don't need any Hulk covers, planning to wait till after Hulk event to load R51 hope it turns to Heroic. Odd situation is that I keep a small stockpile of 10-20 Heroics most of the time, in case I need a pick-me-up on a rainy day. Wondering if it will turn to Heroic in R50 then back to Hulk in R51. All depends on how they maintain the back end token data I imagine.

    I have a good idea of how old you are, now.
  • I just finished beating a mission in prologue and got alliance bonus afterwards as part of daily SHIELD resupply

    It says I have R51 on the launch screen but apart from the overhauled store I see no changes... what should i be looking for?
    There definitely are no changes to the Message of the day screen nor did I get any alliance bonuses when doing prologue stuff...

    It seems if you got your daily reward before getting the patch you don't get it... At least that's what I'm hoping.

    That is a fairly sound reasoning. We will see in a few hour. I would upvote you if I could icon_e_smile.gif

    Don't remember the thread, but people were wondering if they removed HP from the random daily reward pool because now they are in the scheduled list of awards.
    as of R51 They have not.

    500 ISO a day with so high levelling costs is not that big an incentive but still nice

    1000 would be much better ^_^
