Upcoming Patch Preview - R44 Discussion

Not a huge patch for player facing changes, but quite a few changes made on the backend for future support. Small enough that I’ll just repost the changes here.

UI

  • Heavily revamped the Comic Pack Store display
  • Added check marks on earned progression rewards in Events and Tournaments
  • An icon now displays instead of a numerical value when a character is buffed
  • Updated the ability firing UI to show cost and a charge bar instead of just numerics

Misc

  • Fixed another occurrence of Events appearing greyed out when they should be active
  • Ability UI sounds when full are now 100% less ear shattering

I love the change to the ability sounds. I love it. Thank you so much.

So will we be able to easily tell how much the character is buffed?

“Ability UI sounds when full are now 100% less ear shattering” is one of my more favorite changes icon_e_biggrin.gif

Yay

Sounds like we are being given less info so that they can change buffs on a whim? That or I am not understanding. Sounds like its just removing “200%” and replacing with a smiley face.

Just a small update patch, was hoping for a big one *sniffle. Ui change on powers sounds like it could be helpful.

Nice QoL change I had hoped they would do eventually.

Not as easily, but it also allows us to do other stuff other than simple “numbers go higher” buffs. When there’s a number there saying what everything changed by, people think that’s all that changed. An icon obfuscates this some, but also opens up the opportunity to be more creative.

Hopefully with different icons representing different things? Could be promising.

After playing a high level Rag in Lightning rounds for the first time, I’ve gotta say – it’s just sick. In the DA tourney he rules, but he’s the only 3*. In normal tourneys he’s powerful, but not totally overpowering (IMO). In Lightning rounds it’s just a slaughterhouse. Not even close.

Glossing over all the guesses that IceIX won’t be able to comment on anyway, I really hope this means that characters will be getting santa hats for the Christmas tournament. (Y’all will be having a Christmas event, right? Like, SHIELD needs agents to gather little flecks of ISO Red and a newly discovered ISO Green to decorate the helicarrier?)

Interesting. Creative sounds good. Look forward to hearing more when you can share.

Lol…“agent, you need to stop a new strand of green ISO from getting into the hands of Osborn”
end of last mission finally, we have the green ISO. Now why is it so special el jefe?
“For the christmas party…” Devil dino seen wearing a christmas hat putting a star on top of a huge tree.

Secret nerfs to all things NOT rag maybe hehe

I really like the changes, in particular progression check and also wonder what the new Store will look like icon_e_smile.gif

Since it’s preview, R44 is to expected within a week or so?

You think? In my experience when game developers start talking about obfuscating buffs and getting ‘creative’ it means someone is about to get shafted

R44 is available to download for android

I really like R44, the store looks great. As does the daily deal thing.

One criticism… the red iso flash every time you go into a featured mission is a bit much for me. Other than that, well done.

Is anyone seeing the checkmarks showing up in The Hunt progression awards?

Available in the Apple App Store too. Not downloading right now.

I am not in that or Bad is Good…
