Those patch notes seem way wrong. The bundles they say they are selling are completely wrong and there is no mention of Black Tiger in the event. I think these are the packs and buffed characters of the old running of the event.
Failure to last refresh is due to time issues. I have yet to place lower than #5 in a sub bracket from the system used in The Brotherhood, and I think it’s rather unfair to everyone else even though it certainly benefits me.
You’re understanding it correctly: that’s exactly what rubberbanding was designed to do. Of course youd be missing out on a ton of iso and probably tokens by doing that, but if you can’t afford the time, it’s fine.
Yeah and you could do that in the old The Hulk event. I wouldn’t be trying this until we verify this is indeed what’s happening though. The text they use for rubberbanding seems to be always the same, despite the fact that rubberband system for The Hulk is very different from all the other events. Basically, if by the second bracket you see guys with impossibly high sub bracket score (like 5 times the maximum you could’ve gotten by doing every mission down to 0), then it’s the old The Hulk scoring system, and that system you could just join the last 4 days or so and still catch up. That doesn’t mean you’ll necessarily place well, since after you caught up it’s still the same old cutthroat competition, but you can save a lot of work. The drawback will be missing all the sub event rewards in between, though you’ll be guaranteed to win several sub brackets too to make up for it.
Actually seems to be
Buffed characters for this Event: The Hulk (Indestructible), Punisher (Dark Reign), Hawkeye (Modern), Black Widow (Original), Black Panther (T’Challa), Thor (Marvel Now!).
Rage of the Panther - Lowered damage by 20% across all levels
Defense Grid - Fixed a bug where Level 2 would not reliably allow three Protect tiles to be placed.
Yeah, I think it’s a bit too early to call on the ‘rubberbanding is based solely off main bracket’ theory. While possible, it seemed like the devs seemed to like the method of doing it based on sub-event.
Why do Devs keep making the same mistakes over and over? Maybe people are getting fired and they are bringing in a new person to work on the same problem each time?
I lack the willpower to abstain, even one sub… daddy needs his fix. will see if I can hold off until I get out of work… boss has been giving me evil eye all week after he caught me playing on Monday. Damn elite tourney almost got me fired.
Wow, after relaunching the game I got my lvl 230 Hulk down from 230 to 206 and instead of Deadly this is merely Normal. Wow so much help. At least I got a black Hulk and some iso to level Punisher.
Black Panther still murders with his black, even at level 20. Some super buff here. I’d say by 80% minimum?
That makes me think it’s not based on the main bracket, then…because if it was, then Nevada would go down when you did Canada missions, just like your main missions. (Main missions are based on the main bracket, though…which would be expected.)
Not sure if I should even try to play or if they are going to reset it. After the connection lost like everyone else, everything is deadly 230 level, even after rebooting my phone.
This HAS to be a glitch. It was working fine until that connection lost.
Once the bar in the main event gets filled, a node opens up that gives you a guaranteed Hulk cover. The devs screwed up and set the goal for the bar at 4500 points, which was achieved in about 4 minutes. Those of us who were lucky enough to see the node got to complete it early. They then came in and set the goal to a much higher number. Once it gets filled again, then you’ll get the free Hulk cover.
Well it’s impossible to tell what system it’s under (in the first day rubberband off main or sub is the same thing because there’s only two total sub brackets) but it’d be obvious by day 2. In The Hulk system, it’d be like say you do every mission twice and have 1000 points, you’d see your sub bracket leader have 5000 points. In the sub-bracket based rubberband system, your sub bracket leader should have no more than about 1500. But you can only figure that out after the first sub bracket ended.
