Because I hoped someone knew what would be new…

No serious, it’s September, tell me what is about to be going on!

    "Missing nowhere to be found!"

    Prepare for Battle in Season!
    Zap! Marvel at our Lightning deals getting slightly more expensive!
    Swoop into battle as the high flying Vulture! Wait, he was August? Ah. Never mind then.

    Well to be fair, it was a holiday for the US yesterday.
    So the community manager - if we are getting one - won't start until today.

    I remember when I was a kid there was a Comic Shop near me that I would often visit. I loved browsing the comics and cards, and chatting with the workers. Then one day, the door was locked with a sign "Gone Fishing". I thought it was odd to close the store to fish.

    • The following day, still fishing
    • The following week, still fishing
    • The following month, yup still fishing.
    • The following year.. building was knocked down and replaced with a Home Depot.

    What does this have to do with MPQ? Idk, this post reminded me of the comic shop though 😂.

    Can’t you just play the game without a schedule, you know like the 100,000 other people playing this game or the millions playing others. I don’t get this obsession with being spoon fed what events are coming up. I don’t play any other games where people are grumpy because the devs are talking to them every day.

    I mean, yes, but they also said a community manager would start in September.

    25 more days to make that statement true :)

    The new manager is reading our posts, getting to know everyone and the tone of the forum, I bet

    OR

    Still trying to get his company email, time card and other IT stuff setup, along with any compliance training

    I don't care about the schedule at all, but I'd like to get some posts from them about the characters that were updated, new character previews...stuff like that.

    They're a crew of 20 employees, I doubt they need days to set up a new person.

    All that stuff should just be an in game notification. 'Character X has changed, check out the changes'. There should be more in game stuff so everyone see's it. Rest I couldn't care less about. I couldn't care less if they never post on the forums again, none of it has any bearing on how I play the game or how much enjoyment I get.

    That's a really good point and I agree with you.

    But if all notifications were in-game, where would you all go to argue?

    The new admin is on maternity leave and decided a newborn is easier to deal with than us.

    All this speculation on who will be the community liaison between you good people and the bcs team and I can confirm that it's me!
    After doing such a good job of answering everyone's queries that they have asked me to do my lunacy on a full time basis.

    • I said more spider people
    • I said vulture would have powers
    • I said chasm wouldn't be touched
    • and I said what's new mpq has gone in the bin.

    Sadly they haven't asked me nor have they commented on my, quite frankly hilarious retorts
    Should have our answers by the end of the week so we might know more, or maybe we won't.

    Who said anything about days? It's the start of the month after a three day weekend.

    Just because you don’t care about it doesn’t mean there aren’t others out there that do.

    hands down the quietest MPQ has been since BCS took over, and about as quiet as early 2022. It's difficult to accept that BCS doesn't want to communicate - they did a decent job until this spring. Can't help but wonder if Marvel has too strong a grip over the ability to release information, conduct updates, and interact with the overall community.
