Gonna be a bloodbath grind fest for top 2. 
Other than that this will be a fun event, even with the bullseye troll. 
Cool, i have every powered up person besides bullseye. Good thing too as essentials switch in this event. Sentry, wolverine , , and mystique have no synergy together tho which stinks…
is there certain people you need for this event
Sigh.
Didn’t they say something about slowing down with the new characters?
My question is this;… How in the world does D3 start an event that releases a new character when the scoring glitch is still here? It kind of sucks when you complete a node only to find you have less points than before you started! 
When did they say this? I don’t recall seeing that, but I did recall seeing them mention that 4* characters would have plentiful releases.
Speaking of which, when they start dropping those all the time, I hope they don’t stick to the top 50 format for everyone going forward. That’d just be brutal.
Mmm - I think they said something about returning to the ‘usual’ release rate, after the onslaught of new characters in the last couple of months.
I’m more irritated that they said no more new characters this year… yet sure enough, here we are. Sure, this one ends ‘next year’, but has two days of grinding in this year, and over New Year’s Eve, which I find sadistic in the extreme - particularly considering they’ve thrown in Lady Thor as a top ranking reward.
Reeeally unimpressed. Certainly won’t be putting in the effort for anything more than T100 at best. Hell, if I could get away with it and still help the alliance to get Luke, I’d just aim for the token. I’d much rather the chance to get someone I really need, than another new character that’ll just rot away quietly.
Maybe by ‘slowing down new characters’ they meant instead of releasing characters every weekend PVE, they’d release them every…week-long…PVE…every week?
I don’t understand D3’s concept of time?
People are whiners. Normal rate is a character every two weeks. We are back to the normal rate. This character isn’t released until next year. They kept their promise about next year.
I actually WANT more characters. I’m getting bored and have nothing left to work for. Don’t need the covers for like 75% of events now. Just sitting around waiting for available 4 Thor covers (though I won’t grind a top 2 in a PVE). Need more content, game’s getting boring.
I think that’s why I started playing Contest of Champions. At least it lets me switch back and forth between match-3 and fighting.
They sure are. 
More seriously, I think you’re mistaking ‘whining’ for ‘expressing concern from a particular point in the game’. And winning a character next year doesn’t negate the fact the event for it is also taking place this year, and over a fairly significant holiday. My concern isn’t that a new character is out, it’s that there was an implication we wouldn’t have to be grinding for anything new this year. Which is not the case.
I’m slightly frustrated its another weeklong event. The only reason I did halfway decent in enemy of the state is because I was sick from work, lol.
I guess I should just be glad they aren’t making PVP weeklong events, too…
Again, D3: Can we have a WEEKEND event? I don’t care if they only character offered is 0 star bullseye at this point 
They release characters every two weeks. If you want to say the characters are awarded every two weeks, or their events start every two weeks, it’s the same thing.
And not everyone is in the same situation. Lots of people have MORE time to play during the holidays.
Also, I’m not sure why people feel like you HAVE to play every event, or win every new character. It only affects the essential nodes of the one event immediately after. ALL other events are fine. I played this entire last event without Elektra, and it didn’t ruin my MPQ career or anything.
No surprises, Patch is essential in all 6 nodes.
How long is the sub?
2.5 days. Normal and Hard running simultaneously.
That is ridiculous. Even normal sim is going to scale like crazy over 2.5 days
No one likes 36 hour subs
D3 gives us 24 hour subs in Enemy of the state. Everyone loves it
They follow up with Sim and give us 2.5 day subs?
Nodes (this is Wolveroach and his 2* roster) (Exactly the same levels for Moon Roach and his somewhat stronger roster):
Normal:
01 - Shinobi 7, 2* Storm 15, Teisatsu 7
02 - Juggernaut 7, Colossus 40, Bagman 15
03 - Pyro 8, Blade 40, Pyro 8
04 - Grenadier 6, Konran 6, Muscle 6 (1000 ISO)
05 - 2* Hawkeye 15, IM40 50, LCap 40
06 - 3* Mag 40, 3* ASM 40, Falcon 40
07 - Loki 40, LDaken 40, Black Panther 40

09 - She-Hulk 40, Ragnarock 40, Punisher 40
10 - Loki 40, She-Hulk 40, Captain Marvel 40

09 - Rocket & Groot 40, Ragnarok 40, Hulk 40
10 - She-Hulk 40, Elektra 70, Falcon 40
I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with scaling, but…
Given the time frame, if we choose a 6 pm (Eastern) end time, does that mean we have a sub ending at 6 am, or will they all end at 6 pm? Because I’m choosing completely based on that; I’d like to pick a non-midnight nd time, and I’d like to pick an “off” time for easier competition, but a 6 am end time will undermine all that.
We also seem to be back to 2.5 hour refresh times.
