Hi Everyone - 

Here are the R203 Release Notes.

"Fierce mental attack"

MPQ wraps up the month with exciting bundles and content! And look out for an all-new Introduction Event with the release of this next character!

  • Reduced the rate of a rare crash that some players were encountering.
  • Taskmaster's power names will now correctly display the most recently selected version outside of battle.
  • Offers will no longer flash rapidly if viewed as they expire
  • Storm (Mohawk)'s comic cover info now correctly lists cover variant
  • On the Steam version of the game, while typing a message in Alliance chat, the text now scrolls after reaching the right side of the box (to match behavior on other platforms)

Thank you for playing!

    Fierce is drag queen lingo: 5* Shade (the drag queen mutant) confirmed.

    I'm going to make a wild guess and say the clue refers to Moondragon.

    @LakeStone

    Is it safe to assume the next character is a 4* and the intro event is another welcome to shield?

    If so, big thanks to you all for allowing us time to “catch our breath” after the back to back 5* release!

    @IceIX,

    Any plans at all to update the sneak peak thread??

    I think Ice is a little frozen at the moment, he may thaw for June sneak peak ;)

    When does this patch go live? That line sounds suspiciously like it belongs to Hellcat and Welcome to SHIELD, even though those things will have passed before the patch goes live. 

    Beyond that, the release pattern for the year has been alternating 5's and 4's (skipping a 4 that they intend to save for the Black Widow MCU release since the movie got moved is how we got two 5's back to back). I would personally be very hesitant to guess that the next character would be a 4.

    It's already live in Google Playstore. It does sound like it's for Hellcat, but R202 also mentioned the new training mode.  :o

    Steam has it as well.  iOS still missing at the moment.

    I agree, I wouldn't put money on this being another 4*

    It's iOS's turn now. 

    I thought the hint for each release note is related to the next new character, rather than previous released character.

    But, information lately seems to be pretty inaccurate, so, it's probably referring to Hellcat. Legion is probably the next new character.

    Geez. It is possible that they did both an updated ST for a 4 and are making some introductory event for a new 5. Have a little optimism. (I know!  It’s hard with the way they are doing things lately!  But try!)

    Also, there are a dozen or so high powered psychics besides Legion.  How about Mentallo?  Quentin Quire? Hope Summers?  Rachel Grey?  Nate Grey (X-Man)? I could go on......

    Ignoring the mental part.. a fierce attack is also called an onslaught, isn't it?
    on·slaught
    /ˈänˌslôt,ˈônˌslôt/

    noun

    1.  a fierce or destructive attack.


    From the Oxford dictionary.

    Hi Everyone - Just wanted to give a heads up that Google went live quite late last night and iOS is in the process of going live now.  Should be fairly soon.  Thanks!

    Nice to see that Google Play is actually coming came out early this round rather than getting stuck for a day or so like the last couple of updates. :D

    We skipped a 4*... shouldn't we skip a 5*? : / Should I wait yet again for LL to be Apoc, Yelena, and [NEW]?
