    It feels like there are two groups of ppl working on different builds of the game and every second release we get the same bugs from two releases ago

    It's not crashing in Lost in Time -- they just set the challenge node to the old scaling again.

    Aka, they STILL don't know how to fix it.

    It's whatever. As long as it's the same for everyone and it stays that way the whole event it's fine. It's only an issue when it affects the integrity of the competition.

    I'm not embarrassed for them, fwiw. The ability to feel that died somewhere around the 12th consecutive month of every single PvP fight being Okoye/Hulk. They don't know what they're doing and they haven't for a very very long time.

    I've just now reached the point where I no longer consider it to be fine. Part of that is due to personal life changes.... I suddenly have almost no time to devote to this game. So, putting time into it is an effort. I genuinely don't feel like putting in that effort when it doesn't feel as if the devs are making an effort themselves.

    But I understand my personal life matters not at all to the overall heath of the game. And, as you and I have acknowledged on many occasions, it's not as if I'm going to uninstall.

    But I'm at the point where "As long as it's broken for everyone fairly, who cares?" is sucking the fun out of it. Just fix your freaking game.

    Sounds like you need a break, or just to play less. It's a game, it's supposed to be fun.

    If you're looking for an alliance with no minimums and no play requirements, I might know of one!

    Another visual bug? On 3rd clear of SCL10 he’s making strength ~2,000 Strike tiles, which are no joke!

    I wonder though, we don’t have a playable Kaecilius in game. Could he be one of the next 6 stars??

    Its easy to get him, I use Polaris blue and Sabertooth black to get many anti-knives, and shang chi to blow them apart and take the blows

    I didn't realise you could stun him.

    Edit: I've just realised I have always read this wrongly, and thought the strike tile damage reduction was dependent on an enemy being stunned. How many times have I misread this. What a fool!

    On the one hand, BSSM needs a rebalance for players to find him more useful. He’s not necessary at all for the Ksilly node.

    On the other he’s in some (one?) nodes as an enemy. A CN or 5E. And I don’t know that I want harder nodes anywhere with SCL 10 and the crapshoot that is the boost list.

    He's in the CN node for the last sub of Venom Bomb, I think...

    He is, and it’s one of the hardest challenge nodes on offer (in my opinion), unless you’re able to gun him down within the first few turns.
    (Admittedly anyone with an ascended 1 star Hawkeye may now be able to achieve this)
    Those damn symbiote goons get him so much green AP he’s chucking a police car at you every other turn - stunning your front character for 4!! Those things were no joke on the old SCL10, never mind the new one! 😳
    Incidentally this is one of the coolest themed/animated attacks I can recall in the game.
    Has anyone else got any favourites?

    I used to love OML black transformation of slowly unsheathing his claws, like things just got real now. Unfortunately, the one negative of his buff is that he no longer transforms, and that animation is just gone.

    That’s true, that was a good one! Very satisfying. I guess I hadn’t noticed it has gone because I have animations off these days.
    But now that I do know…. RABBLE RABBLE!

    Huh, I went and checked out the animation for automotive artillery, and it’s a red sports car, not a police car he throws. It’s clearly been a while! Go figure
