In the main or the subs? Main event reward missions are normal for me so far. Also, someone above has cleared the sub(s) once and didn't report anything unusual. I would restart your app, and if that doesn't fix it, report a bug.

Yeah I posted about this happening to me on the previous page. Just restart the app. I had 8 iron man covers before I figured it out.

Oops! There are. Thank you for catching that. Fixed.

The extra token in alliance rewards is nice, but the ISO is kind of miserly.

What on earth is the deal with having a red Iron Man token reward for every node?

Edit: okay weird, I killed the app and restarted and now I see more normal rewards.

Dang, the same thing happened to me! If you see even one Iron Man cover, restart immediately or you'll miss out on a bunch of ISO.

So these endless Iron Man covers are a glitch? I just thought the MPQ REALLY wanted me to have another 1 star IM35.

TINYKITTYYYYYYYYYYY! I had about 10 before realizing something was probably wrong.

Maybe they reduced the alliance rewards ISO to balance out the new daily ISO bonus?

I wondered the exact same thing, but the alliance ISO awards in the Hotshot PvP tournament were unchanged. The last Hunt was pre-alliance, so I can't go back and compare. /shrug

Are you sure the main alliance reward for top 2 is 500HP? Playing on Steam right now and it is showing 250HP.

Yeah I just finished the last essential one and what were 300 point missions are now 30-40. I thought maybe it was a rubberbanding thing since I'm now so close to the leader. If so that is quite a huge rubberband.

edit: @TheLadder - you're right, even on my iPad it's showing 1-2 2000 iso and 250 HP so both numbers are off

Mkai my posts on topic also got moved I think moderators are still getting used to handling forum threads/posts' moving function =] - EDIT: phpbb by przemo works nicely in this regards IIRC from my moderating days oa forum

Anyway - on topic:
The point value of all the repeatable nodes dropped SHARPLY after I did every node once... I am not sure since unfortunately I did not take note of the point values but I would suggest to bleed dry the most profitable nodes (ie - the "essential" ones) before doing the other nodes at least once

And people seem to be grinding those nodes for ~20-30 points lawl

And so the community scaling hits those who play by the rules ;-P

It's more that moving posts has to be done a page at a time ... and that changes the pages, so each page needs to be done again... meanwhile, people are still posting. So it's about a 15 step process to split off a runaway discussion.

I think this time value of the nodes is constantly chancing by how high you are placed. I did everything twice, ended up second and they were worth about 7-30. About hour later some of them were worth over 300 and I was at 57th or something. Played couple of them and they dropped to under 100 as I was in top 10 again. Now about 20 minutes later, im in top 30 and nodes are again worth over 100.

Yeah I think they changed the rubberband so that it's pretty sharp early on, but a lot more elastic further away. I kind of like the change cause it requires you to do more missions to catch up, but it's still doable and it doesn't let you just slingshot past the leader.
