The Mysterious case of the missing Moonstone...

So I'm playing Venom Bomb and the node with the 3 required characters. As I usually do to save on health I use the loaners who can normally get the job done. Fire up the node and...well there is a Moonstone shaped hole and I'm fighting with 2 toons only! I still won (which maybe says something about Moonstone) but is this just me or anyone else had this happen?!?!?

    I had that happen to me earlier. Quite strange. At least it was her rather than Carol that vanished!

    This is a little off-topic but I mistook my Moonstone for Riri! I had used Riri and Carol for the gateway node to open the sub, and then the loaner node features Carol again so my mind did it's trickery and I fired Moonstone's red thinking she was Riri and would end the match but... bleh. Cap would have ended it with his red too had I been paying attention.  :p

    Happened to me with Carol. Made for a slightly rough match.

    OK, I can understand mistaking Moonstone for Carol, but for Riri? ;)

    The curious case of the cut-off Cap?


    My Cap is champed, but I tried to use the loaner.

    Cut off Cap is rough! So this is a bug or...evil plan of Hydra?

    This is a bug reported in the bug forum.  It only affects loaners.  If you take a team of all loaners, you will randomly lose one and go as a 2-(wo)man team.  Once you've lost one, you will continue to lose that same one on that node each time you re-run it as long as you select all loaners and don't switch devices.  If you switch devices, it will randomly drop a character again (maybe the same one, maybe one of the other 2).

    tl;dr:
    Use the right forum.  It's been repeatedly reported.  Don't use all 3 loaners.  Pick 2 loaners  and 1 rostered character

    Thanks abmoraz. As for using the "right forum" then the moderators are free to move this thread if they so choose. Maybe you could have just linked where to go, eh?

    Or you can just go back to the selection screen and switch back and forth between your toons and the loaners until all three show up, as I did.
     
    tl;dr switch 'til they all appear, avoid bad advice.





    Same device, different character dissappeared, restored by swapping til loaner showed up.

    Looks like Moonstone just got punked after CM and CA said they had her back if she wanted to go after Doc Ock for what they said he said about her.
