    This is fantastic response! Are there still things to work on and improve/fix? Of course, there always will be. But more so than the free stuff, this proves y'all are listening, and that's really encouraging. Thanks Brigby for your endurance and patience.

    If so, that is an exciting reward structure! Casual people not in coalitions get access to it, people in casual coalitions have access to it, and if you already have it, its a decent amount of crafting orbs! This is wonderful!!!
    I think people who are not in coalitions wont be able to participate in coalition events. So they still wont have access to it.
    True!!! I didnt think about that.

    They can just create one for themselves to be able to play.

    Yes. The team has a to-do list of areas they'd like to work on, and fixing critical bugs is certainly at the top. They're still working on getting the card set release schedule caught up to tabletop Magic's schedule, however I'm glad players are enjoying the moments when the team is able to push out a quick hot fix update from time to time.

    Max Nodes are now set at 5, therefore players now have 24 hrs to complete the first two charges of each node.The Immortal Sun is also awarded at max progression for players in each tier.Progression threshold lowered to 750.
    Thank you for all of this :star:@Brigby

    PVE does require someone to be in a coalition, however they could start one for the event, or jump into one. There are tons of friendly groups looking for players in the Coalitions subforum!

    I wonder if by catching up, they are planning same day releases as they do in paper? Because if so, then they are still in a race to meet the deadline. After that though, they would be indeed caught up and on a less intense schedule.

    An in-game announcement suggesting players not in a coalition consider making one, joining one, or looking to certain places (like this forum) for help in joining a coalition would probably be worthwhile.

    I think they snuck a Battle Log fix in at some point without mentioning it, the last hit actually shows up now! At least, it does when it's a creature attack, I haven't checked anything else yet.

    Please let them know its ok to be a little off from the paper release schedule.  We are more than willing to wait an extra month or 2 if it means a cleaner release.  

    The release-day bugs (and the fact that every single paid for exclusive did not work properly) are unacceptable.  If we have to wait longer for the new set so that that doesn't happen again, it is well worth it.

    Please convey this to the devs @Brigby, and thank them for all their hard work thus far
     Hard deadlines may be playing a role in having $40 cards rushed out. Making money is important for D3 I imagine. Or not, who knows what goes on behind the curtain.

    The event just ended, how are they awarding the immortal sun? I didn't receive one with event rewards.

    Different event. Immortal Sun is for BoFT, which is next weekend.

    @Brigby

    It would be extremely helpful if we could see both the recharge rate (i.e. X hours per charge) and the current and max number of charges per node (something like X of Y charges, for example). I know the Q&A session is closed for the month, but is there any way you can pass this on to the dev team? I saw in another thread that you mentioned there will be an update in the near future. It'd be awesome if this could be put into that next patch!

    Thanks!

    Technically from a development standpoint they aren't,  paper had more time to develop and prepare. When RIX was released WotC was actively working on a late April release in January. Oktagon started after RIX was released in March...two months behind schedule.  So no, I don't believe they are caught up if they want to sync with paper like they've been trying to do. After Dominaria though... they certainly would be caught up and on schedule with development alongside WotC development timeline
