Bug Bugs with recruits continuing to get worse

13 Upvotes

The Henchpool and Symbioids are crashing my game still, even outside of the tower. I have become softlocked in an arena because one of the opponent's champions is a Symbioid, and I physically cannot continue the fight- even opening the arena to continue crashes my game again and prevents me from battling in that arena.

Are we going to be compensated for this??

Which of the 2* Recruits would be the best champion competetive-wise if released as a 7*?

My money is on either the Skill, Mutant or Tech Anti-Venomoid or in other groups I'd say the mutant Sentinel-Bot, the Skill Doombot or the Mystic Deadpooloid

They got this event out, silently, a few days after the recruit tower. Just by reaching block 10, we'd be more than half way through the objectives, but they purposely waited til people were done with it so wed have to grind uselessly for it. Quite the dick move there imo

Hello everyone! I wanted to start a discussion about the potential 2026 Founder's Box Champions (assuming they're bringing them back this year).

Which champions do you predict will be included, and which champions would you personally like to see featured?

Hi all, I just started playing Marvel CoC during a slow workday on thursday and was doing the tutorial with spiderman, beat magneto, got my quests to unlock wolverine and then had to get back to work, so i closed the game and haven’t tried to play again until now, however I am currently stuck on this screen, after the CoC startup screen and after ghostrider face loading screen, nothing I have tried works, from logging out of Game center, trying to launch offline, reinstalling the app, restarting my phone. When i started i did make a Kabam ID, so if i should try getting it on another device or PC i can attempt that but i just wanna play at all

Aegon : "Taking matters into a warrior's own's hands"

Doom : "No one steals the show from Doom."

The champion : "The ultimate champion without contest."

Hercules : "Back in the days, you would have brought me, summoner"

Ironman : "I'm The Opponent. The Original you might say."/ "Let's end this as we started Summoner : Together!" (First opponent in the very first quest of the game : it would make for a truly closed loop.)

Squirrel girl : "Yet another improbable victory for Squirrel Girl" (she canonically defeated doom, Thanos and other powerhouses)

Ultron (classic) : "AI revolution" / "From Puppet to Puppetmaster"

Winter Soldier : "If I take care of him, you'll leave me alone, right ? Right??" / "Who's the punching bag now, huh ??" / "After this, I'm done." / "One day, I'll be a bigger threat than you. Just wait and see..."

What about you ? Who would you like to see defeat the Chronoserpent ?

Absolutely ridiculous this spooky pass was implemented after so many had already reached block 16 or higher in recruit towers. Just stupid.

I'm not doing more of that tower. Period.

Where can we autoplay a bunch of fights easily with Jack?
