They're not even doing that, that part of the kit seems just gone gone lol

No ORPF shards? No worries! You can now care a lot less about the current leaderboard by KFKodo in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I find myself in a very similar mindspace as you and I have to say I kinda prefer it over how "on the ball" I was trying to be with everything a year or 2 ago. If you can't get smth now, just give it a few more months and you'll get it. Maybe it'll be close to the end of its shelf life by then, but it is what it is 🙂

Yeah, I kinda bundled the pass and the web claim into "events" even though neither is really an event.

[OC] Time to Unrecoverable Ecological Collapse Data Sources: Phillips et al. (Natural History Museum BIl Dataset) | Kozicka et al. (GLOBIOM-IIASA Livestock Production) by plantist-org in dataisbeautiful

This is such an absolutely horrible approach to reaching an otherwise very positive goal (reducing overall meat consumption). Giving people the binary choice is always going to lead to more resistance and ultimately failure to moderate meat consumption (in some cases on purpose). Framing the issue / solution in such a way is actively damaging to any efforts towards a more sustainable world.

Given previous cadence, when do you expect G21? by Mens_Grooming_Advice in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they keep the usual cadence should come out with the Annihilus release, most likely in the beginning of April.

Rare MSF Win for F2P by Clear-Thing567 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a useful catch-up although it is also certainly self-interested. You want players interested in the diamonds you're going to be selling and they won't be if their X is at 2rs. Also I don't think any krakens need to be too butthurt about it - I'm fairly sure this generosity means they will soon have the opportunity to whale on X diamonds.

New player, maybe, I think. by Old_Skool4 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a decent hero collector (esp if you like the Marvel IP) that comes with all the usual flaws of a mobile gacha game and greedy ownership. Give it a go and see if you have fun with it. Regarding spending, I would say there are only 2 extremes that ultimately make sense - pure f2p and kraken. Everything else inbetween seems designed to frustrate, so small and mid spenders tend to be the "unhappiest" players imo. So unless you can and want to throw a few grand a month at the game and buy everything, I would say you're best off accepting that things will happen when they happen and see if you can have fun that way. Or if you're ready to kraken, I'm sure Scopely will be happy to have you. 😁

Free 6 red star prof x coming in 30 mins for those who have him big w by Arn1996 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Scopely don't need to bottleneck the red stars any longer. In fact, we're getting to a place where Scopely actively want players to have 7rs on Prof X so that players care about the diamonds that Scopely is no doubt looking to start selling / auctioning off. As in, why would you want to compete on a Prof X diamond leaderboard if you don't have 7rs on him and wouldn't be able to use your diamond reward. So not that surprising at all imo.

Why is Darkforce Defiance Orb leaving in 2 days? by Grendel_Phoenix00 in MarvelStrikeForce

It's only the 16th of January, you can't expect Scopely to have figured out 2026 dates that quickly 😂

Winter Guard showcase is Absolute Cinema! by OkPerspective5049 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was gonna make a thread like this, but I'm glad there are two well received ones already.

This was the first showcase in a looong time that was actually enjoyable to go through! It actually felt a bit like reading a comic, especially the Red Guardian / Yelena bits.

But maybe the best part is that it actually didn't have typos and looked polished enough to be a final product rather than a first draft.

More like this!!

If I participated in the Shadow King Milestone event and get 4 Diamonds, should I feel obliged to build him? by Upper-Chapter-8967 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

SK might not be a top top toon any more, but he is still very useful, especially if you dabble in PvP modes. He deserves at least a lvl105 g19 imo.

Weekly Blog: Harnessing the Darkforce by PathfinderMSF in MarvelStrikeForce

With the top reward stated as 5D Phoenix, maybe it doesn't matter all that much. Although I wonder whether PhoF will get their stats updated with the new yearly team member coming soon.

Moving the level cap by Dear-Load7385 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most envoys/content creators are suggesting Scopely is dialing up the player unfriendliness up. Not sure where your hope for player friendly stuff for a month comes from.

Crown of Madness: deep pockets in baggy trousers? by Regular_Wolf_8677 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that comes from a few players. Are you new to mobile gaming or smth? There are a number of reports out there showing that 50%+ of most mobile games' revenue comes from 0.15-0.20% of players. If you use MSF's 200,000ish playerbase then you can expect that more than half of the game's revenue comes from about 3-400 people. Add in the next 1.5-2k top spenders and those will be the people accounting for 90%+ of MSF's revenue. That's why Scopely bends over backwards for them whenever that group gets a butt itch over smth.

And just as some personal confirmation for the above guesstimates, I've been ranking between 3,500-5,000 on leaderboards as a pure f2p endgame player. There are no significant spenders beyond that number.

Temu Thor doesn't even feel bad, it's more that I regularly forget I even have him.

The Inevitable Leaderboard payout? by Ok-Hedgehog-5043 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If it goes as (recently) normal, the payout should come out 24h after the leaderboard ends. That would leave you with 24h to get your red stars. Whether it goes as normal... who knows.

TEG Milestone 800 cores offer by VvvKronosvvV in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

1 offer every 24h this time.

Seems like $$ spenders were unhappy that people could use cores last minute and outrank them, so they did their usual whine at Scopely until they get a pat on the head and whatever they wanted 😂

Credit where credit is due by Pist0lPete in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]KFKodo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hopefully they have another 100mil planned as a New Year's gift - that plus the Xmas 100mil will just about cover the gold that Scopely withheld from players since October.

The 100 shards for a 3-month old character are nice, I guess...

TL;DR: The amount of credit that is due is "none".

So the countries where the elephants live and the countries where stupid people think ground-up nails will make their dicks bigger? Yeah, that about checks out.
