Galactus tokens were a bust. 3 pulls = 2* Ares, 2* Wolverine x2.
Heroic gave me Antman Purple, so there is that.
Daily Deal Anniversary token gave me IW blue.
Ice IX said the difficulty would be equal to that of the last run of Ultron (the one for Ms Marvel). It isn’t. I think in response to the forum’s ideas of beating Galactus, they ramped up his difficulty, but didn’t take away the already built in difficulty of the quantity of CD tiles, Cosmic Tiles, AP gained in later levels.
If this is how run 2 will be, I have no desire to play it. If it gets tougher as it did during the first double run of it… I absolutely don’t want to play it.
It just doesn’t feel like last year. As stated, Galactus by Round 4 is VICIOUS. It’s a GREAT event, but for Anniversary Week, I wish we would’ve been given something a little more laid back to compete in. At least we don’t have to face an additional node like in Ultron to get the tokens. The fact that this a brand new event, instead of a rehash of old events, like last year, is cool too. That’s a welcomed change. If I’m not mistaken, there’s additional Anniversary tokens added to the PVP events, so that’s right on. Even with the improvements, as least for right now, I’d place my vote for last year’s run. The biggest reason being that right now, I’m literally locked out from playing at all. I don’t have Jean Grey, so I can’t unlock another Galactus battle. Thanks to my slice selection in PVP, I’m locked out until tomorrow. I remember being able to play until I dropped out tired last year. I’m also being prevented from taking advantage of double ISO. All in all, not the overall Anniversary experience I was looking forward to this year. Hopefully, the rest of the week will have surprises to make up for it.
Absolutely. I mean, what’s the harm if 75% of alliances manage to get all three Cyclops tokens? It’s not like that cheapens the character in any way because you’d still have to spend months afterwards getting the other 10 you needed.
DD introduced, and almost 10% draw rate for it in tokens.
Tokens with much higher 4* draw rate (all 4*'s combined) as well - well worth 50hp daily.
Three event mini-season with alliances rewarded DD.
DD daily drop for year-players (day 365/6/7).
Last anniversary was lots of fun - though it didn’t last. I was hoping their double ISO would stay (it should have). I was hoping the higher token drop rate would stay (it should have). I was hoping three-event seasons would stay (they should have).
I was hoping -something- would happen this year that was entertaining. Super tough Galactus…great. Basically re-skinned harder Ultron as “new” content. At this point introducing 4*'s isn’t new -or- exciting, but just more monotony.
Anniversary one: bringing people back into the game. Anniversary two: showing people there’s no reason to come back (or stay).
The part the forums lit on fire for was when the actual anniversary passed without anything special happening, because they were waiting until the offseason for the festivities but didn’t actually say that publicly.
Just started thinking…we’re thinking about this all wrong. This isn’t a celebration for US, the playerbase. It’s a celebration for the Devs, of course!
