For those who are angsty, I think it boils down to:1) The game is unplayable for some and causing physical pain for others. Some are pausing/quitting, which puts strain on alliances as well. 2) The developers gave a target date and people were excited to get back into the swing of things. 3) And this is the big one... there was nothing wrong with the old board. When I polled people on the forums, 87% chose the old board over the new. 13% chose new over old. Clearly this one has problems- some health-related, and the developers never gave an option to roll it back while taking time to make the proper fixes. Well, it’s “just” a few weeks right? The longer that timeline extends the worse the decision not to roll back the changes looks. 4) The overall toxicity on this board right now. I’m sick of “it’s not a problem for me, so it’s not a problem” posts. The lack of empathy, the flaunting of privilege and the outright hateful comments towards those who struggle with disabilities is sickening. This one isn’t on the developers, but I do put it on the moderators of this board, and am naming it because it adds to the overall “‘vibe” here. The posters who outright boast about their “flag” count as a badge of honor and high-five over trolling do so because they know they’ll get to stick around with their hateful comments. I mean trolls are going to troll and it’s whatever, but the fact that it’s allowed while other stuff is hyper-enforced, makes you ask the question: what kind of culture do you want to create here? It should be noted that Micheal1957 was banned from the forum, I assume for his hateful posts. He was bringing the most toxicity towards people who cannot play because of the changes. I'm not sure why they couldn't go back to the old board, though I think it was because of the speed exploit, and possibly other fixes that were rolled into the new UI. I don't know how difficult it is to program color but I concur that, if nothing else, the old color pattern should have been prioritized for the most recent update.

HoundofShadow said: 3) The players in the forum are probably out of the touch with the general playerbase as a whole. The players in here hate changes that don't benefit them personally. Every change need to have some kind of benefits. That probably explain the biasness of the polls. 4) what kind of culture are the players trying to create when they have been writing mostly hateful comments and insults regarding the dev for the past few years? They continue to do this because they know the moderator and admin won't punish them for doing that. It looks like a case of the pot calling the kettle black. It's fine to hurl toxic comments at the dev, but it's not fine when the players get some thrown back in their faces. What kind of culture do those players expect?

HoundofShadow said:2) The dev also shared with us one of their industry jargon related to missing targeted date, which is common in the industry. I can't remember the term but it was posted a year or two back in this forum. With that information in mind, I won't expect rollout to be executed perfectly on time. 4) what kind of culture are the players trying to create when they have been writing mostly hateful comments and insults regarding the dev for the past few years?

Thank you everyone for your feedback and patience as we worked on the fixes to the Gameboard. These fixes are now live in the game via an in-game patch (no need to install a new update). If you don’t see the change during play, you may need to do a hard reset of the game to see the updated board.
We made the following adjustments to the Blue, Purple, and Green Tiles on the Gameboard based on tests and user feedback.
Two refinements have been made to the enemy turn performance.
Power ready fill-bars are now easier to identify.
We hope these improvements improve gameplay for all. We have seen some feedback in regards to some Tiles may appear a bit less saturated and vibrant compared to the original Tiles and that is something we will continue to look at and review in future updates.
Thank you for playing MARVEL Puzzle Quest!
