It feels like many of the 5* since Omega Red have been lackluster. Is there any chance you guys are going to redo the power budget for 5s? Many 4* kits are much more interesting and we’d love them on a 5 without taking months/years to ascend.
You have many variants of the same character, each with its own star value. How do you determine its star value: by costume, abilities, cover source? In other words, what makes a variant a 1-star vs. 5-star, possibly an alternate costume?
With the iso-8 desert expanding for many players due to ascension and the 3/5-4 release schedule, what solutions or adjustments to the game economy has the team considered? Maybe expanding LRs to at least M-F & more frequent 2x iso?.
Is there a reason why some PVE events have been run multiple times in quick succession over the last couple of months? E.g. Cosmic Chaos. Since the return of the 7 days PVE, they have only been ran once? Will this formula be mixed up soon? Thanks
With the ascended character now making loads of new 4s and 5s the SCL system could do with updating. Are there plans to change this soon SCL 10 must be getting overloaded now as it’s been years since a new SCL was introduced
Can we get more ascended character offers and in vaults (like 2 and 3 stars ascended to 4 stars) like when you released each batch of ascendable characters?
Are there immediate plans to update the rewards for both the S.H.I.E.L.D. Simulator and Season rewards. At the moment, I can finish in the 11th percentile of a 28 day session and get 3 tokens and 45HP and some R/Iso. Sim rewards also not comparable.
Ascension destroyed the sanctity the game. A 1* character is now more powerful than a 5* character. Will we stop getting overly comlplicated powerset 5* characters that requires a bible to translate? Will you now consider lowering the boost levels?
Can you set the default 3-characters before starting a battle to be event-specific? For instance, when I go into PVP, I don’t want to see the 3 characters I just used in DDQ or PVE. I want to see the 3 characters I last used in PVP.
You could even take it a step further, and keep the defaults separate for each individual event (Simulator vs PVP1 vs PVP2). I can’t tell you the number of times I started a battle in Simulator, with the required PVP character in the center by mistake.
What 1 star character is now stronger than a natural 5 star? I mean, I guess you can truthfully say that juggernaut is better than oml, but I don’t see anyone using jugg over mthor, shang, chasm, Omega Red, or collosus.
