    Ya know, despite the fact that I'm working on the game and know what HP stands for in relation to MPQ, I still have to translate HP into Hero Points instead of Hit Points every time I read it.
  • It's not so much a sale as a bonus. Must spend $20 to get any benefit.

    I'm so glad to read this. I still trips me up.

    I was literally thinking the exact same thing yesterday. Lol. Too many years of playing RPGs, I guess. icon_lol.gif

    In that same frame of mind, I think of certain characters in classes such as Tanks, Healers, etc. I am such a nerd. Lol. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Perhaps it should have been HP (hero points) and MP (Marvel Points) icon_e_biggrin.gif
  • Everyone should just call it gold.

    Gold is for M:AA, we don't use such simple metals here. ::WhisperToArtist::Wait, our Hero Points are gold, aren't they?::Whisper:: Never mind, move along!

    Still seeing normal prices, no bonus.

    From the other thread: There's one up for Android at the moment. iOS will be getting an equivalent one sometime this holiday weekend/Cyber Monday as well but I'm unsure exactly when. Which means that I personally have to wait till then too.
  • Out of curiosity, since iOS doesn't have the sale yet, what is the bonus HP this time?
  • 145 extra HP at $20 level (3045 instead of 2900)
    Next tiers are 8925 and 22000 HP.

    Also bonus ISO8 at the same tiers: 8400 and 27500

    Hm, that's certainly a bit less than the last sale...

    A whole 5% icon_e_sad.gif

    It was 3600 for $20 a month ago. I was hoping for something decent like 50% for black friday.

    Steam sale it's not. Developers actually make tons of money on those.
  • That's not much of a sale. :/

    Ah, thanks. Apologies.
  • Now that I think about it, given their track record of bugged tournaments updates (boosted tiles not getting priority, lost boost for Juggernaut, locked out Widow in heroic, points in Venom), I wouldn't be surprised if this was supposed to be a 50% bonus but someone messed up and made it 5%. Hopefully iOS bonus will be better.
  • I'm actually more confused here by the amounts in general. An extra 145 Hero Points for $20. How am I supposed to spend 45 hero points? I feel like I'm buying Microsoft Points and trying to figure out how to get back to zero. Same for the $50 one since I'd end up with a loose 25 points. Although I suppose if I were willing to spend hero points to train a power, that would get rid of the 25 extra. Still not sure how to get rid of the 45.

    You're right. After health packs went up in cost, there is nothing in increments of less than 25 (125 for 1* upgrade and 25 for selling 3*).
