    I’m having the same issue. I’m sure others are too since I’m sure the event was completed before many could join.

    Well, that’s just dandy. I’m feeling a small amount of rage at the moment.

    They'll reset the event and you'll still be able to get your alliance rewards this weekend. Be happy fir your alliance mates that they were able to get some extras

    My alliance is still at round 5. This is a top alliance problem. :D

    I’m not in a top alliance. Just one that plays a lot.

    So leave your alliance and join another one just for this event.

    I opened at round 8…. 30 minutes into event. Nothing.

    edit*** I’m placed 4th, so this will kill entire alliances unless there is a fix

    Mod note: edited out unnecessary political reference. Scofie

    Well we are a small alliance with a lot of new players, 10 of us have played and got level 8 done so those US players who haven’t played yet will miss out on all alliance progress

    I expect this will be similar to last time and it will reset to start in a few hours

    It is not just a top alliance problem. Our casual alliance in the group finished the whole event with merely 6 players, so 14 players got no chance for alliance rewards. Also, young rosters that have to start in round 8 are having big problems getting any personal points at all. Apoc was never friendly on 3* rosters. Reset please!

    FYI, if your alliance got all 8 rounds done you will get your rewards the next time the event clock resets (8pm EST, 2 AM EST, Noon EST). Have run into this before with my alt or helping new players start during boss event weekends.

    Oh they surely have to re-set, we likewise finished with 9 players. I asked my guys to play early to try and get a leg up on points. Wasn't expecting quite this much of a leg up! Still - those who followed the plan got a nice reward.

    This is a problem for alliance players who play too much then. :D

    Also, old advice for APoc - if you can't beat him, do what damage you can with powers and then retreat to bank points = damage done BEFORE you make a match to end your turn.

    Props for the guys in my alliance who got them extra covers. I guess BCS will reset the event. It is easier to reset then refund basically everyone.

    Getting good personal points but zero alliance points. Think there’s various bugs with this that affect different alliances in different ways.

    I got it! We are welcomed to an apocalypse Era! So nobody will score anything if not having a strong roster.
    It's coherent thematically that can't be denied.

    We’re taking advantage until the event gets fixed

    If what he said happens for this boss even, then BCS doesn't need to reset the event and compensate players. It's too early to celebrate.

    Whether they give out compensation or not...the event needs to be reset. I joined when it was round 8 and only like 8 players had joined.
    The scoring was borked and needs to be readjusted.
    Whether I benefit or not, they need to rerun this. It is no different from last year when all subs were open in pve on day 1 They need to do it for this as well. If I miss out on bonus rewards, then I miss out.

    It will matter for lower tier players who cannot push into the 8th round.
    They won't be able to get their regular rewards.
    It is not about the tiny majority, but the larger player base who may have no idea whats going on.
    Everyone should have a fair shake at personal progression.

    edit** supports and mmr have nothing to do with and is totally off topic. I'm on a wait and see stance for those things...though I don't have high hopes.

    This is a great point and it drives home that for the VAST majority of the player base who might be much more casual (I was there for the first 8-10 months of play) they have NO idea what’s going on. I don’t know what the reader base is on here or over on the subreddit, but this is a lot bigger than just us vocal commenters.

    Thanks for the perspective.
