MPQ Sneak Peek: May 2019 Edition *Updated (5/29/19)
Comments

Dark Phoenix releases on 7 June, whereas Spiderman Far away from Home releases on 2 July. Assuming there's some sort of celebration for both movies that last for 3-4 weeks, then it's plausible why Phoenix is required earlier than usual to avoid the celebrations overlapping.

@JHawkInc Yes. Civil War will technically be 3.5 days longbluewolf said:Re: Phoenix. Endgamebration - ends May 26. My list shows that the next Classic after Phoenix is Cap (Infinity War) so maybe - maybe - they wanted to end it with him so they skipped two Latests to sync that up. Making Phoenix essential on 5/19 allows them to run Cap on May 23 for the last PVE, since they like to stick to their order once it's established (interruptions/repeats aside).
Could they have planned that? Because that would actually be cool for reasons obvious to anyone who's seen the movie.

It would have been nice to get those full details to civil war, but i guess we'll just get the usual 12hrs advance notice... assuming we get anything.
I know the top alliances will just do both team cap and team IM, earn everything, so it doesnt matter what covers are offered for which team. But not every alliance is capable of that, and it would have been nice to be able to come to an agreement on what we go for, ahead of time. As a lot of alliances span multiple timezones, having a discussion takes time!!
I know one of the teams will likely reward Xpool, but what is the other? And why on earth must you hoard this info until the very last minute? What could you possibly loose by letting us know a few days ahead??
You dont even need to do a fancy table with all the iso rewards etc... Just add a simple line!
In the sneak peek where you listed the required characters for each team, just add a simple line:
Team cap:
Required chars: 1,2,3,....
Round rewards: 3*: A, 4*: B
Team IM:
Required chars: 4,5,6,...
Round rewards: 3*: C, 4*: D
How difficult is that? And why cant we know this at the same time as knowing the event itself??? Holding back this info serves no other purpose but to make alliance coordination a miserable affair. Please consider this for the next time, i beg of you!5 -
I'm not usually bothered about too much advance warning but my Co-Commander is likely going to be out of action for part of this and so knowing that info in advance would have been pretty useful in organising things with the limited time I have available to me. Otherwise Civil War is simply just chaos.Unfortunately, the downside of playing this game has always been the expectation that the world revolves around it and so you had better not have anything else going on like working, sleeping, eating or losing access to the MPQ Matrix.3

Knowing webbed wonder details, you could figure out what you get (3*Grocket, 4* Xpool) even if there is no sepetate info.
But civil war is special, because it offers a choice. However, that is not an individual one, but one the entire team has to make. Together! And a global team takes time to make such choices!!0 -
Safe to say one side is going to award XF Deadpool, I wonder who the other 4-star reward will be.0

Well, now that it's in-game, the other one is Bucky...
Team Cap gives 3*Thor and 4*Winter Soldier (with Switch and Clagger for individual progress)
Team IM gives 3*Grocket and 4* Xpool (with Sentry and Hulkbuster for individual progress)1 -

Thanos-Endgame as essential for Shield Training??? I just bonus-heroed a medocre Talos to 11 covers and now he gets skipped... My Thanos-EG is only 2/3/2.
And isn't it a bit early for another 4-star release? Rescue was just releases this weekend.5 -
S.H.I.E.L.D. Training - ??? (5/23/19) *New Update*So you're going to distract people from how the Endgame celebration is petering out by setting a dumpster on fire?
Required Characters:
4-Star: ???, Thanos (Endgame)
No one enjoys when the new characters are required before we've felt like we've had a chance to acquire them, but the devs keep doing it anyway. Why keep doing things people don't enjoy?
It's so hard to be optimistic when the devs keep kicking us while we're down.8 -
Loved that we were told Magik was a "mistake" but here we go again with Thanos.10
-
I'm guessing we're getting a new character release so soon so their Versus event can actually take place in-season and not take away an off-season event like what happened with Ronin. Regarding the inclusion of a recently-released character in SHIELD training, I can't say anything there.Savory (5/23/19) *New Update*I appreciate getting DDQ details this far in advance, but... that's only four characters. Should I assume Storm is supposed to be between Magneto and Luke Cage?
3-Star Required: Black Panther (T'Challa), Magneto (Classic), Luke Cage (Hero for Hire), Rocket & Groot (Most Wanted)0 -
Magik had at least been in tokens for a fair amount of time before being required for S.H.I.E.L.D Training. Thanos has been in tokens for like a week so far. He's my sole BH and I've only gotten one extra cover for him so far.
Granted, I'm hoarding right now, so not pulling a lot of 4*s anyways (the odd one from Heroics), but I haven't even pulled a cover for him from tokens yet.4 -
Ah man I’ve been working hard to get talos done and he’s skipped. Right now I’d love to tell them where to shove this celebration but it would get me banned.
I feel for those people who emptied a vault to get more talos. You know that carrot they dangled.5 -
Wow Thanos End Game really @Brigby? As a person that does play on the high end of the game, my Thanos is only 3/3/2 at level 168. How are we really suppose to be able to cover these characters when you don’t even have events outside of the release events to collect them?
How does this make sense for the player base?
Are you and the Dev team trying to limit the rewards for Shield Training?
Why would the Dev team do this with somebody that has been released like 6 weeks ago and just got into tokens and he wasn’t even a SIM reward?
Why not make Pepper Potts the 5E for the next PVE then?
I hope you can answer these questions on Monday cause the player base seems a bit pissed off with this decision.9 -
Oh also, new release on a major holiday weekend that is a 3 day event so another 1hr apart PVP and new release PVE on a major holiday weekend. Here we thought that Iron Man, Captain America and Thor was the Trifecta. Nope this is it!!!2
-
Any chance there's been an error here and Thanos (Endgame) for the SHIELD Training should instead be Namor or Talos?0
-
I'd also point out that one of the more frequent complaints and most constructive of criticisms has been to improve the communication. Everyone would like to see an attempt to make communication 2-way with responses, rather than just announcements and run away.
Dropping this at the very end of a Friday when the community clearly has a bunch of questions is not a step in the right direction. In fact it feels pretty calculated.6
