    From a completely player point of view, it's an interesting little extra piece of data that I can see on every character so I know how much Iso I have left to invest in them. Even if I'm not going to invest into an Iso purchase for leveling in a fell swoop, it's kind of cool to know that it'll be 22,035 Iso-8 to take my Daken from level 50 to level 69.

    That's awesome. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Any chance that this sort of precision will be added to the in-game damage tooltips? That way I don't have to guess or reach for a calculator to see if "Best there is" or "Magnetic translation" will do enough damage to outright kill that last guy given the strike tiles on the board? icon_e_biggrin.gif Cos that would be awesome as well. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Cheers.

    I don't know. I kinda like the idea that you have to do a little match to figure out if a power should be used or you should wait. Especially with powers that have drawbacks like Onslaught-ing Thor icon_e_biggrin.gif
  • This game has the feel of a four-man dev team with one business analyst and one graphic designer (shared with other teams) and one middle manager.
  • Will there be a confirmation button on the ISO-spend to avoid accidental drops of 140k ISO into a cover-maxed 3*** character (and the resulting CS tickets that would follow)?
  • Patch is live on PC... Don't really wanna test some of these buttons... icon_lol.gif

  • Can any one confirm that you are able to level up your character to the max level you have ISO for? Say you have a fully covered Patch, but only have ISO to level him up to 90, is that an option?

    No, either you have the ISO or the game prompts you to buy ISO. There's no option to use all your ISO if that won't max the character.
  • Thanks for the info. I would like that as a future feature then! It would be better than sitting through a couple minutes of continually pressing the level up button!

    Just curious, how many levels do you upgrade at a time? I usually do 5, which doesn't take much time, even at 125. Although, I recently took cMags from 20 to 50, and that did take a while.
  • Same, 5 or 10. I was more talking about when they release new characters, like Daken, whom I've saved up my ISO for. Going from 15 to 100 or more is a bit tedious!

    I usually alternate 3/2, because it seems that's where the breakpoints are in where the powers increase in effectiveness.

    That was asked a few times in the suggestion group, most common reaction was "I wish I had that problem".

    That's something the devs should really have gotten right on day one of this feature.

    yeah, the ability to chat in a chat feature.

    Sadly it does and I hate to say more negative things but it does come from a good place. I really do enjoy this game and want to see it get better. Get some funding and hire more people to help build this game D3

    I saw suggestions for 1x, 5x, 10x leveling options, but I am not sure a change like that is needed. For me it would be enough if I could level a character with a simple click (not waiting for the bar to fill). A max options is OK if we still have the option to level characters without the game using all the ISO we have.
  • So, does the dump.iso button have safety behind it like the shield use? If nit..that's a big issue as when I am.at the gym and finagling with my phone I have a tendency.for it to magically go to an iso page. One click is all it takes now to lose a huge chunk of my 370k iso on say, baglady? I hope its a "are you sure" and then a "r you sure u are sure" after that lol.

    My versus tab still says "Events" on iOS after the update. My character level screen has the raise level button with one next to it in purple showing the ISP needed. I am not going to click it to see if it asks if I am sure.
  • Tons of issues with this new Patch.

    On first log in:
    Not in alliance (have been since pretty much alliances started)
    No Events
    Still no rewards from heroic mode

    Second log in:
    In alliance
    Events back
    Still no rewards
    Played two rounds in IM40 event points didn't count and no progression reward
    Connection keeps dropping out (I tried both wifi and 3G)

    Third log in:
    Not in alliance (have been since pretty much alliances started)
    No Events
    Still no rewards from heroic mode

    Obviously more testing is needed
