Got this game a few days ago and it's strangely addictive, to the point where I rather grab the tablet than play with KSP's new update. I do have a couple of questions: 1- this thing murders my N7 2013's battery, is it normal? It doesn't seem normal. 2- I grabbed one of those heroic lotteries for 150 coins and got a dude called The Hood. First of all, I could swear this guy was DC; second, he's never going past level 1, is he? It appears even a few real world bucks wouldn't do much good.

So there's a DC Red Hood and a Marvel Hood-that-happens-to-be-red? Alright.SynthOrange posted:Yeah, the 150 random hero lottery is a bit too random to rely on. If you want a specific hero, wait for a particular event that gives out only that hero on sale, i.e. last week you had Thor and Storm available on their own, this weekend its uh... villains and hero 1 stars I guess. You can get Captain America in the 1-star event. I'm almost in my bracket's top 10  Getting specific heroes isn't my issue, though, it's leveling the characters after you get them. Even Thor (who I got for free for no apparent reason) - a 2-star hero - is stuck at level 4 while Iron Man and co. are all in their twenties.

I got my Captain, with the red power only since I couldn't make it past #15. He seems pretty cool, but at level 1 his usefulness in the tournament is debatable (even with the 150% buff).

I could use a few more covers to upgrade my dudes, but I assume it's best to hoard gold coins until the update comes along, right?

For some reason, Helium says I'm not allowed to backup this game. If something bad were to happen to my tablet, would I lose all my progress? Doesn't seem like the game has cloud-saving.

With the new update, it appears I have maxed Iron Man's red and yellow abilities; there's no point in keeping these covers now, right? Also, just got classic Dr. Doom on a recruit reward thingy

Really enjoying all this new stuff, but I could use some help navigating through all these characters; is there some sort of black and/or white lists? So far I only insta-sell classic Hawkeye and Juggernaut, which means I've been keeping everyone else and catalog space is getting drat expensive. edit: jumped on the fake facebook train too, added everyone. https://www.facebook.com/liam.blimey seravid fucked around with this message at 22:18 on Oct 24, 2013 |

delfin posted:Of the ones you're likely to get early on, and others can tear these impressions up as needed: Good stuff, thanks! Looks like I'm doing pretty good as I usually roll with Thor, classic Storm and modern Black Widow, with Iron Man and modern Storm as backup. I was wondering specifically about Venom, Yelena and modern Hawkeye; Captain America too but I guess he's still too new to know for sure?; also, some 3-stars like The Hood, classic Dr. Doom (though I'm keeping him even if he's sub-par) and classic Magneto. I'm sure they're pretty good but yeah, they're stuck at level 1(5), so I can't really see a reason to use them over a badass like my lvl 23 Thor.

I've maxed modern BW's stun so I can already disable the entire team (5 turns for the main target, 1 turn for the rest). Is Venom's stun better?

Waiting until the last couple of hours and spamming "skip" really works, I went from #70 to #6. Out of heals now so we'll see where I end up. e: welp, down to #8

How are defensive teams selected anyway? I fought against a couple of top ten players with sub-20 level toons, no idea how that's possible.

Venom is a frequent drop for me too; before this event I'd never used the guy but he's at 5/2. The heroic token got me classic Spidey purple. "Spider-Man reacts to threats before they impact his team. Removes a random enemy Special tile every time Spider-Man is damaged for 10% of his max health with 7 or more Web tiles in play." What the hell?

ghostwritingduck posted:Buy cover space with coins and hold onto your 2 star guys and higher. I ended up with Grey Magneto 3 times by random luck, and he's great for PVE. I'm up to 17 covers and keep everyone except the usual insta-sells; it's not working great so far.

Fritzler posted:I got a 2 star recruit reward. I got The Hood. Now I have Megneto Classic, Black Widow Classic, and The Hood with all one ability. I don't want to get rid of them in case they are needed or I get a second one (I did that with Daken, I would have a 5/1 if I didn't sell him, but now I am using a 1/1 Daken for this tournament). I have five 3-star characters and today was the first time I got a second cover for one of them (gray BW). Even then, she doesn't cut it against any of my veteran 1-star characters; I guess I'd need another three or four covers to consider replacing one of my main dudes, so maybe in 2015.

Crap, I missed the Hood's round; guess he'll stay in the bench. Doom's up next, though, and I am ready e: VVVVV Hood's round finished a few minutes ago. Doom's starting in half an hour or so. VVVVV

I don't know; I was looking forward to level my 3-star characters, but I'm seeing a lot of crazy-high level dudes out there. At this rate I don't think I'll reach the top 25.

Welp, top 100.000 This looked interesting but at this point it's just an easy way for high rollers to get 3-star covers so they can steamroll us even faster in the next round.

SynthOrange posted:The Lightning Round recruit page now features Doctor Doom. Anyone tried him out? His abilities seem kind of lacklusture. Starting at 950HP, he should be pretty beefy once leveled. His black power is expensive but does 34x2 damage, and that's at level 1.

delfin posted:Mostly Thor and Storm Classic. It's not so much about having the perfect team as it is going hard, fast and for the right targets (picking out patsies at first and then mid-range guys near the end who are worth more points). Though having Doom get hit and Storm blast the other team doesn't hurt... That's what I'm trying to do, but no dice. After the first few minutes the newbies disappear and I have to skip twenty lvl 80 Terminator teams to get a reasonable opponent. I suppose I could take on those guys with my lvl 46 Storm Classic and lvl 45 Thor, but I'd probably have to burn through my boosts and heals.

vibratingsheep posted:There was an exploit at the beginning where you could set your time ahead on the calendar and some of the time-based missions would unlock, but it wouldn't explain people getting that far ahead. There are some people I've found on the MPQ forums who are running three separate teams into the repeatable missions constantly. Ugh. I did the Ragnarok & Moonstone & Hammer mission three times - got 3x20 ISO for my troubles! - and already felt like I was wasting my time, I can't imagine grinding that thing over and over.

delfin posted:On the plus side, the difference between #1200 and #200 is about two hundred points, and there are LOTS of people bundled around that 550-750 point range, so it's easy to climb back up. Getting in that Bullseye Purple range and staying there will require more persistence than anything else. Why not go for Loki?

Starrett posted:This iron man sucks! I don't know, I kinda like his yellow power; getting stunned is no big deal since at low levels he's never on the front anyway and, as soon as he wakes up, you can trigger the power again since it's so cheap. Combined with Thor, it's hammer time all the time

I keep coming back so they're doing something right, but these events really are frustrating. Four times I was ten points away from the 900 mark (1,000 ISO reward) and four times I got attacked while playing a match. Win 20 points, lose 50

How many fake friends do you guys have? I'm accepting every invite blindly and am up to 159*, but the spreadsheet only has 86 names. It doesn't matter much, fake account and all, but I'd prefer sending out free stuff to goons rather than random internet people. *and I only get a couple hundred ISO per day

Helical Nightmares posted:Anyone else noticing that you are getting a lot more points per environmental tile recently? Or is it that they reduced the cost on the ultimate ability of the environmental tile? Iron Man 40 is great with those: he gets 8 points for each tile, which means you only need a couple of matches to drop a critical on the board (lab map all day errday). Add a 25% crit boost and you can really ramp up the pain. A couple of days ago a cascade netted me four criticals, now that's what I call a lightning round

Shwqa posted:I feel like this game is much friendlier to non iap users now than when it started. You only need 13 covers to max a person but covers are only about 50% rarer. You used to have level 3* with premium currency. Sure healing on level was nice, but ISO is so much more common these days, thanks to Facebook, that max level only take about a week. Only for you, man. I know it's the third time I bitch about not receiving enough free virtual money from my fake virtual friends, but at the current rate I'd need a couple of years to max out a character.
