Cosmic Chaos is my favorite event. Easy leveling, gearing, and legendary/omega exp.

Still trying to get adjusted to not having 'Trick or Treat' buff anymore, the number of uniques I collected was just stupid fun.

Went cosmic on Juggernaut. Played a chunk of the evening, made it to level 15.

Good lord, what have I done.

can not tell if new zone sucks or just bad because of the broken stuff

spider clone artifact had a 100% drop rate right after patch, so they set them to no loot and later said they fixed it
certain bosses are not spawning
and have to wait til next patch till they add xp to the icp boxes

new code
PATROL
Gives a Patrol Boost
Patrol Boosts give you a 100% Bonus to SIF, RIF, and Orb Attraction Range. They also have a chance to give Heroes an awesome jackpot loot explosion from Brooklyn and Midtown bosses, showering the floor with Patrol-specific loot & riches!

also to note, they did some nerfing to juggy, +power duration no longer apply a couple of powers
looks like it could be an open door to have +duration not apply to other hero's sig and powers

If they nerf power duration for Dr. Stranges sig I will burn their offices down.

Ok probably not, but I will be pissed off.

Signatures/Ultimates are not intended to be affected by Power Duration and Juggy's are no different. Scion/Wrath essentially act as an "extra" Signature for him and therefore it is also not affected

It's sort of amazing how Gaz can be on such a roll of good stuff then follow it up with changes that makes me not want to play their shitty little game anymore.

And then they fix it (usually) and give out of a bunch of bonuses as a mea culpa. The Marvel Heroes cycle.

The intent was never to nerf the XP from the boxes. The intent was to remove the behavior where the XP from the boxes was drastically better in some zones compared to others. We want it to give the same amount no matter what zone you open it up in.

With that said, we will be increasing the base XP from this box to compensate for that fact that it's no longer affected by region modifiers.

still doubt they will be as good as there were
removing the zem, took away +36% (midtown) to +155% (sh story)

I think they also made the xp orbs unaffected by the cosmic prestige penalty by mistake.

Fucking sucks cause I just now stepped into midtown, if I had caught it this morning i could have ground out some serious levels today.

on stopping the event early

In addition to the issue where boxes are not giving enough XP, they are also ignoring Cosmic Prestige's restrictions, hence our reason for disabling the event.

To make up for it, we're going to tune up server-side XP.

That's not even an exaggeration, literally it'severy single week.

Although, they are doing a F2P model where you have a very active and changing game each week. The point of constantly changing the game is to get players logging in a lot to see the changes, making them more likely to stay in the game and spend money. The side effect is lots of broken things.

They are still better than most companies however. Partial blame for their slight buggy builds is the fact that they try to push out content fast because the playerbase basically demands it. So it is a lose/lose for them as they set the expectations early on that they will keep pushing out content left and right basically every few weeks.

Thankfully, the bugs are usually pretty small. If the bugs are game-breaking, they either fix them ASAP or disable the cause of the bug (power cosmic bug the other week) and compensate elsewhere. One thing you need to take into consideration also is the MM Box event is something for the playerbase to enjoy, they do not have to do it and they could basically pull a Diablo 3 and just live in mediocrity and say "fuck the playerbase" until they need another money-grab (expansion). I think a lot of people take the granted that they do for the players and these things are basically unheard of in games like it, just we as players are expecting perfection every time even though they've gone above and behind everyone else as-is.
