    The eots event had to shift its end times for dst. All the rounds will start one hour earlier after today.
    Technically it's the clock that shifts, not the event itself. All the subs are still 48 or 24 hours.

    Slice 5 sub 1 just had an extra hour added to it for me... Timer hits zero, I complete the new main hub node and no new sub. I reload the game, extra hour on the sub and all my injured characters are now dead...

    Same. The three from node 2 starter (hawkeye & carol) plus the three heroes i last used in the 5* node all ko'ed. And back to grinding for another hour...

    I just experienced the same thing for EOTS sub 1. The node was supposed to end, it continued for 1 more hour. i finished top 10, but because of the ‘extra’ 1 hour i will miss my top 10 reward.

    Same here. But really, it's only the, what, ninth DST switch they have had since the game began? Need at least a couple dozen reps to really figure out a proper way to deal with it.

    It's been 4 years and you still haven't figured this out.  What compensation can we expect for 19 dead chars, no health packs / shields?

    This went from hilarious to super sad really fast.

    All last used chars are dead here too, opened and closed the game plenty of times...

    Timers messed up and any damaged characters on my roster are now ko’d, even as the events that should have ended now are running an extra hour.  Do not like this!

    Real life got in the way, so I didn't have time for 3 clears, only 2.  Being in a sensible time zone, I completely forgot about the changes until the game went berserk.

    I gained by having time for the third clear, climbing from 22nd to 10th, I don't know where I'll end up.  I lost by having to use up 6 health packs.

    I guess it doesn't matter, because everyone in The Four True Time Zones is probably asleep.

    Daylight Savings changes breaks the game.  Who knew?

    :edit: miscounted the number of True Time Zones.  Then again, there's only one that's Truly True.

    It killed off my characters and is now preventing several from being revived -- at all. C4ge is dead and cannot be revived, which is unacceptable as he's champed and boosted and I can't really win the tough nodes without him.

    This is unbelievably aggravating. How is it possible to screw [edited] up the most basic, maintenance code?

    Careful, use of similar words has been taken as avoidance of the profanity filter and has led to warnings.

    I agree with the sentiment though.

    Shoot, I thought it was OK to do that... I try to follow the rules but mess up on this one occasionally... I'll try to edit.

    @Brigby lots of dead characters ehen sloce 5 ended and more time added which I really could not take advantage because  all we get is 10 health kits (6 left after the grind) and suddenly I have  14 dead characters which i did not kill. Including all 3 essential characters and my best characters.

    Something bad happened to MPQ for DST and it really messed my ranking up.

    Instead of hoping they’d prepare for it, I did it myself by waiting until after the time switch to hop in. Sad that it had to be that way, but look forward to 100 HP that I’m sure is coming.

    @Brigby no follow up, and botched in the same way yet again? This is a predictable event. Why does this keep happening?

     They just didn't have time to fix it
