Hey there folks,

I hope you all enjoyed your holiday and are getting a head start on the new year. Something I'd love to field to you all is your desire and preference for MPQ notifications.

The last Devs used to utilize them more often and we'd like to see if there is still an audience out there for them.

Let me know in the comments if you would utilize push notifications and give me a Wishlist of what you'd like to be notified about. IE, Boss Battle Starting, Puzzle Ops returning etc.

(I'd like to preface that some things you might want could be impossible to implement so please don't get your hopes too high up.)

    How about Pvp notifications actually working on Android?

    Yes, reminders of shield expiring in pvp.

    Android push notifications worked until a couple months ago. I posted about this in the bug channel on discord. No response.

    Not only is this possible, but it was available. From the sounds of your post removing push notifications was intentional.

    I got a push when my shield expired. More importantly, I got them when I got hit in pvp. It sucks to be out and not know you just got hit 5x because the hit screen has appeared.

    Please fix this and bring back notifications. I can't speak for notifications on iOS or steam.

    Is there definitely no boss event on 1/30?

    It would be good to highlight whenever the standard 4-week cadence is changing.

    In general, I’d favor push notifications for when a boss event is starting. Extra credit: notify whenever a boss can be hit (from round clearing or a timer)

    You could use it for the Limited time offers as well. Kinda like how Amazon will just say "we got this thing you might like", you could push some offers that way. "Come get this LL Token and more for 200HP!"

    This.
    When the event starts, and each time the boss nodes refreshes. If possible, I'd also like a reminder 1 hour before each refresh. Maybe it could be toggled on/off like others...

    I would not mind notifications for offers for low hp deals. I’m not sure any others are useful for me.

    I've been asking for notifications for years. I'd love alliance chat, alliance Team up requests, alliance event notifications, perhaps health packs full (at 10)notices,expiring covers warnings. All optional/selectable only, please. Thanks for asking!

    • Extend current options available on mobile to Steam. Because I don't have a list of all the options mobile have (and Steam has virtually none), there may or may not be repeats below
    • Turn off notifications for attacks in pvp
    • Turn off notifications for new daily offer - OR AT LEAST set them at a customazible time - so it doesn't get in the way of S2 pve
    • Reminder for Lightning round - I always find myself surprised when it spawns on Tuesday
    • Reminder when shield will expire
    • Boss event notification - 3 to 5 days early
    • when a 3/4* becomes ascendable, showcase it's stats so we don't have to ask dataminers or sandboxes for infos?

    Notifications for Community Challenges would be great, we mostly miss those because people don‘t get it there‘s one ongoing. Push notifications would at least reach a higher percentage

    Boss events definitely: start, new round, boss reset

    If chat is getting overhauled, then chat pushes with text included being optional.
    Having an optional choice to show sender and text so you can choose standard app notification or show the full text on the lock screen.

    Mine are turned off and will stay off forever.
