    This is a slick way to address the iso shortage many experience while also not forcing unneeded iso on those of us that have far more than we can spend

    I accept a ban is appropriate for posting this.

    **Mod mode definitely off **

    A ban, followed by public execution would be my vote. Unfortunately, posting it not against the forum rules, just the Geneva convention so will just have to let mob justice take its course... 😜

    I just got the standard reward (Maria Hill cover), instead of the 3 options. On Steam, if that matters.

    I'm on Steam too, so it doesn't seem to matter in this case. As rainkingucd noted, it seems like it's only for the 'unassigned' days. We used to get a random reward for those, now we get a choice.

    Well this is new. We now get to choose our SHIELD reward?

    As of yesterday, we implemented a "Pick 3" feature for the tutorial for new players that lets them select among 3 covers to make the game a little more accessible. Most of you aren't going to see it since you've completed the campaign already and this Pick 3 in the SHIELD reward is being tested so some might see this pop up. :)

    Thanks for clarifying this. I was excited about it this morning because I thought the "empty" days were finally being addressed. Would mind passing along the positive feedback of this post to make this upgrade a reality?

    To confirm Sokun, this is currently a ‘random’ a/b test and so not everyone will be receiving the option to select from additional rewards?

    Edited to add: While I'd be eager to get this option and hope it gets added for everyone soon, I'm not complaining and just want to make sure the fact that I didn't receive it is not a bug that I should report.

    Why does this need testing?
    Will there be ANYONE who picks a random reward over 3 fixed rewards, each of which is much better than the random ones?

    Maybe testing is the new word for ‘we didn’t expect this to happen, but we’re just going to roll with it?

    Based on the past weeks, I can’t help but wonder if this was supposed to go out for the campaign only, but then it magically hit Shield Resupply as well… 🤷🏻‍♂️

    Lol you may have a point there.

    Yeah, I mean today I got some boosts which I didn't get because I already am full. I would have had that 10k iso in a shot! Dammit MPQ, you make it hard some times!!!!

    Could be they aren't sure how it will affect the game's economy and they want more data before implementing the change for everyone.

    So I guess we can say "Na na na na. Na na na na. Hey hey-ey. Goodbye." to DAZ0273? :s

    I took the Fool’s Gold. I too already have the 500 shards but I’m waiting for it to go post-event and then treating it like a lottery ticket. By my math a 1/81 chance of a full cover for my most valuable 5* is worth more than 2 heroics.

    Wait, wait, wait! I can save myself! I can bring good to this forum! Howzabout:

    Oh, no that didn't help, OK, I got this

    Gah! No! Uhm...

    So is the test over already?
    Had an empty day today, got 5 health packs.
    If so, testing this for exactly one day is an odd choice.

    Perhaps if no one said anything, the devs wouldn't even know and we could have kept getting these rewards!

    This was my first empty day since reading about this. I got 250 iso, so either the test has finished or I'm not in it (I'm on android). I was hoping I could opt for the token to try for a lucky pull for another 500 5* shards. Instead I'll just have to sit here quietly counting my 250 iso...

    I was able to pick yesterday, but not today, now I'm sad.
