    Mine are turned off and will stay off forever.

    Boat's a bit crowded. Could you scooch?

    I'd turn it on for Boss Event starts and round flips. Anything else might be valuable to others, but not for me at this time.

    My wife has an MPQ account now that she (sometimes) plays, could we send her notifications to ask if she can grab me a beer from the fridge - that would be super helpful and then I can blame the game! Ta!

    • Boss reset (not only on timer but when alliance flips!!!)
    • Selected pve slice sub ending (30mins before)
    • shield expired
    • More than 10 pvp reds
    • Lightning round start
    • New ally chat message
    • Getting kicked from an ally
    • Getting promoted to ally command
    • Being approved when pending in an ally
    • New mpq update available

    Of course everyone of them should be able to be toggled on/off. I'd keep all those on :-)

    Don’t mind if we get push notifications but wish we didn’t get so many ads in game for purchases, sometimes get 4 in one game if I’ve been working all day

    That’s no way to talk to your best pal. :(

    You're right. You're just the messenger. I'm sorry.

    If you click the offers tab after the first ad, the rest won't popup. They want you to click the tab.

    When a long vault (say 7+ days) enters its last day it would be cool to get a reminder.

    My only interest would be in opting out of them, but as long as that’s present yall can knock yourselves out rolling them out.

    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.

    Still no response to the fact that for some notifications don't even work and you're looking to add more?

    Can we get an in-game calendar for upcoming events, vaults and deals?

    I have all notifications disabled because they are not granular enough. The only notifications I would care about are Boss Nodes (event starting, new level reached, side/main node reset). But there's no way to only get those and not get the rest, I just disable them all.

    I don't play PvP nor do I care about when my roster is healed nor daily rewards or events. I get the news when I log in daily, so I don't need/want that either. PvE events are consistent enough that it doesn't make sense to get notifications about them.

    I play MPQ when I want to play MPQ, and I really am not at all interested in MPQ screaming at me to play it while I'm doing something else.

    As long as every single notification can be disabled they can do whatever they want (and actually, I think we can disable them from the operating system even if the app is being a jerk, so maybe none of it really matters?).

    What about a notification when, x player drops their shield? That should be a popular one for you.

    Or a notification whenever a person in the top 10 drops their shield. That way you don't need to specify players.

    Maybe 7 or 8 years ago. Today, by the time you get the notification, open the game, skip to q them, and complete the match, they'd generally already be shielded again.

    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!"

    I would hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiighly argue against this. Because they'd most likely use it to notify you about ALL deals, not just HP ones. It's bad enough when I start the game and have to go check out the deals or I'll be drowning in popups.

    Though I guess as long as it's something you can opt-in or select what you want pushed, anything's fine lol. Personally, I'd use it for boss flips, maybe pve/pvp when you have an hour left before it ends? Sometimes I click the wrong time and think I hit 9pm when that's actually not a thing and it's 9am heh.

    Other than that, hm...maybe when a new vault is up? Or specifically a new vault that isn't just attached to pve.

    Only use I had for notifications was in pvp when shield hopping. I got the notification I was hit waaaaaay before the pop up screen and corresponding red node. It let me know I was about to get rolled by a handful of teams and cut my losses and shield up.
