Avengers Alliance - Part 5

[Webfoot Hero]

Looks like we won't be getting SO 24 this weekend but they are dropping Karolina Dean (another Runaway character) to at least give us something new. Really wondering why they're having such problems with the next SO when they've had nearly a month to get it done.

 

[Dark Raven]

Do they not usually drop an SO on the weekend?

I'm guessing Karolina Dean will probably be one of the deploy requirements along with Falcon and Karnak most likely. I was hoping to recruit a different 90 CP hero.

Does she really wear flip flops to fight? And is she a lesbian?

Well this is a surprise. I'll complain less now that we have a new hero. This SO must be giving them hell. This seems like compensation and I'll take it.

Well, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink it.

Pun quota reached. lol

Karolina Dean's sprite is pretty bad ass.

 

[Dark Raven]

They keep delaying the SO, which is why I have to resort to horse puns in the meantime.

Now FB is requiring me to do a captcha on every gift since apparently FB's spam detection system is starting to see game gifts as spam. It wasn't doing this yesterday so it looks like they're phasing it onto different servers. It takes forever collecting and it's really pissing me off.

That's annoying. I just saw that as well. I don't think it was doing it earlier today either.

I see Volstagg is also available to recruit, but only for a limited time (until Feb 10th). Don't know if he would be one of the deploy heroes still though, because if someone didn't have enough CPs or gold to recruit him by the 10th, then they're stuck and can't do the epic run.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Now the game is just doing forced refreshes every few minutes. Hopefully it'll settle down once the flood of players getting Karolina Dean dies down.

 

[zeroapoc]

Yep. Same for me.

Also Woods confirmed no SO this weekend.

I want him, but not sure I want to blow through my stockpile of CP and gold to get him if he's not gonna be one of the required deploys.

If the game crashes due to them only adding a somewhat unknown general release hero, I could only imagine what would have happened had they actually released SO 24. You can definitely tell players are really wanting new content and swarmed the game once there was some, no matter how small it was.

 

[Dark Raven]

Yep. Same for me.

Also Woods confirmed no SO this weekend.

Straight from the horse's mouth.

 

[Dark Raven]

I haven't recruited Karolina yet as I am not sure whether she'll be needed for the epic deploy. I know Molly was last time, but once Medusa was the most recent 90 CP hero before an SO and yet she wasn't the one required.

 

[zeroapoc]

It's working for me now without refreshes.

Same here. Finally got to use Karolina and start leveling her.

 

[Kahran Ramsus]

Glad to see Karolina finally in the game. Now we need Chase.

If we had Beta Ray Bill, we could have a steeplechase.

Usually don't use blaster in the 12.2 but Karolina been working in there and up to level 8 now

I have her training to LVL 10 now. She definitely gets better once her other skills are opened up since there's great synergy between them.

Also, with her gone until tomorrow morning, I can do non-stop runs through the daily mission today and try to get as many EIso as possible. In 4 runs so far, I've gotten the Bruiser EIso that increases defense when attacked by melees, the Scrapper EIso that purges beneficial statuses from enemies, and the Sharpshooter EIso that increases the chance of ranged criticals.

 

[zeroapoc]

I love the daily missions that only take 2 or 3 fights. Having good rewards for them is a bonus!

 

[GeneralAntilles]

I wonder what's giving them so much trouble with the new Spec Ops? Having trouble balancing and refactoring characters?

It could be that, or could just be a horse of a different colour.

Also definitely not Volstagg now as one of the deploy heroes, as I initially thought he wouldn't be anyway.

 

[Webfoot Hero]

Looks like some news on MAA Insiders tonight. There'll be a CO for Rogue's alt that starts Saturday. Also, the SO is in testing, which means it should release within a couple days if there aren't any problems. They said they don't work weekends so if it's not out by Friday, then expect it Monday or Tuesday.

 

[Dark Raven]

Damn. Looks like I'll have to get Rogue as well then. I was actually planning on getting her anyway as one of the next 90 CP heroes, but wanted to wait to see who was needed for the SO. But this just means now that they will force my hand. But I wonder how interesting her alt will be. I would've liked a new CO hero instead.
