    Really like the new look.   

    Only ask would be a way to tab between PvE and PvP without going back but otherwise very happy with it.  

    The extra milestones were nice as well.   Well done.

    My first instinct was "GAAAH", but after playing around with it, I kind of like it.

    Positives: Shield Resupply button, Features Offers its own button, the graphical look of it...looks like a comic book layout. Campaign button I hope is eventually for more than just Prologue event. More Milestone Quests! 

    Eh's: What is Monica holding up? Looks like a Legendary token...oh it takes me to my inbox. Very good. Featured offers is still default when going to Recruit Heroes. I mean I know *why*, but doesn't mean I have to like it. I wish there was a true "Home" button to get back to main screen. 

    Overall, A nice revamp.

    Steam version looks good here. I like it! Nice shake up to the visual style.

    Some people might want to consider leaving one prologue mission open.  I have two I never completed from the original,
    and then they come in handy sometimes if you’re building your 1/2 Thor.  
    Like this very event for instance, I don’t want to deal with Mindless Ones setting their tiles every match.  Also alliance events.

    I’m good with the changes here.  Kind of like it actually.
    I have a saved team of Thano5/Thor/iHulk specifically for this purpose. I use it on easy nodes - court death is a predictable slug of health to eat, and those easy nodes aren't posing any danger of fighting back. Once i get Thor below 50 i switch to 4ocket/g4mora/juggernaut to blast through the rest. Usually takes a node or two to get thor right.

    Not a fan, but I'll get used to it. A solid step......sideways.

    Ha! Thats a very helpful tip.  My Thano5 isnt champed yet, but looks like he’ll still work.
    that will save me some frustration.  It doesn’t take much time but prepping 1/2Thor from retreating just feels like a slog.

    To me, the tiny folder suggests an "inbox" to me, as in messages and communication from the devs, especially next to the new-character thing, not the vine. Maybe if it had some cover icons (or perhaps a stack of them) and a clock, indicating what's in there and that they won't be in there forever? Or perhaps a file drawer, resembling a longbox, to further the "cover" imagery/metaphor?
    Totally agree!

    I agree but when players need 5hor hurt for PvP or DDQ this isn't so helpful.  I kept a prologue node open after a few reopened years ago, specifically for this.  Solid advice, guys!

    Hopefully the next update will fix how supports are leveled, maybe add support tokens and support shards into the rewards, so that I can actually level up the supports that I care about instead of getting more dupes. Because at this point I feel like I have more red iso than Scrooge McDuck has gold.
    Even if it was at a bad rate, letting people use some of their ever-expanding stores of iso-8 to raise the ranking of a support would be a nicer change and then the red iso would become usable again for more people.

    You’re using Thor for DDQ? Hulk usually shuts the open nodes down just by showing up for me.

    While I like the tile design, it seems a little too busy e.g. the featured event taking up space when you could otherwise have had the story and versus links being the full width of the screen and the duplication of having a recruit heroes button and a featured offer button seems a bit pointless too.

    Another thing that I would have preferred to see would have been the alliance button being on the far right of the menu bar, so that it remained in the same place as it was in the old ui and people have the muscle memory for already.

    wish i had started this game on the computer so i could connect it to a 60+ inch screen so things are not all squished together and i can see something. Devs have gone completely deaf and screwing up the game. They’re about to push me over the edge i don’t even want to open the app anymore no more enjoyment.

    Hit box for on top buttons is very small on Steam - very annoying to have to aim so much.

    It's a little busy, but overall I like it.

    Especially loving the color scheme.
