Alliances
    - Thanks to Field Agents' feedback on the S.H.I.E.L.D. Intranet, Alliance Chat history no longer scrolls to the top when new posts arrive. - Fixed an issue preventing the notification icon from appearing on the Alliance Button when new messages came into Alliance Chat
Gameplay
    - Agents are now notified if they finish a fight after an Event has ended
UI
    - The Black Widow and Hawkeye tabs are no longer visible in the Recruit Heroes menu unless the Agent has a Token to redeem for those heroes - Alliance rank now shows up on any Event that uses that ranking - A notification to join an Alliance now appears in the leaderboards for Alliances - The Cover cache now has a “Sell All” button - A new animation plays on collecting a reward from a mission or Comic Pack - The Cover Store has been heavily revamped, showing Agents a better view of the available characters in a given pack - The Info button in the Cover Store now uses a menu that stays inside of the Client instead of an outside web page - 40x Comic Packs are now available for Agents that want to try for a larger selection of recruits in a Cover Pack purchase - Except for the first cover, tapping on the rewarded cover in a 10x or 40x pack now skips the animation
Character
    - Black Widow (Original) is known for her nefarious tactics in combat. One of her most diabolical tricks has been nullified; When on an enemy team, she will no longer fire Espionage unless she is the most powerful color strength in a tile match.
iOS Only
    - The client now requires iOS 6.0 or higher.

    Doesn't seem like anything all too major. Are the changes that were supposed to happen during r51 ever even gonna happen though? Still haven't seen a lot of them.

    So what else that isn't on the list will be discovered the next day?

    Is this the patch that will also force iOS users to move to iOS6+? Or did that get bumped?

    Quality of life improvements mostly. Anyone else excited for the sell all button?

    Good call out Riggy. If that is still the case, then it should be put into the first post with a bigger font and bold so it is not missed.

    It's there now and I'm wondering if I was blind to begin with or if it got snuck in. icon_e_confused.gif

    Edit: Nah, Ice is adding that in now. Just compared to the News sub-forum. icon_e_smile.gif

    Yep, added. Good point, I just didn't think of it as a Patch Note (which it is, most definitely) since it's an Announcement on its own.

    That and applicants being able to read chat. (Though I kinda don't want that fixed. Made recruiting easier being able to talk to applicants)

    But also a little creepy when there are 8 applicants and we have that who do we want conversation in alliance chat where the people pending could hear us talking about them icon_e_confused.gif

    Okay, not that big of a nerf, but not sure what they are doing. Was she doing double tile damage on black, purple, and blue event if she wasn't the highest?

    I feel like that wasn't true but I've proven I pay little to no attention while playing.

    So assuming it's just me being me I'm glad to here it. OBW doesn't need any extra advantage.

    When she was an enemy, depending on the team setup it was/is possible for her Espionage to go off no matter if she's the one doing the damage or not. Only worked for AI, not for players.

    While we're at it, I've noticed a serious bug - When my enemy is using Patch and I'm not using Wolverine, his Best There Is does damage even though none of the tiles "bear his icon"!!

    Eh? Ehhhhhh? *waggles eyebrows*

    He *is* the Best There Is. He's so good he doesn't need icons to be his even when that's a requirement! But really, the Ai does have that showing for them in the background. Just don't have that portion shown to the player is all.

    So I was correct in my out loud scream that the AI is cheap and lame, they were playing with a stacked deck. God I hate the computer icon_lol.gif
