Red Room (repeat event)

[Andrew]

This Thursday, Red Room Event will be repeated. Bugs have been fixed and progression issues resolved.

New Nameplates will be available.

And it makes sense due to the movie getting released as well, this is how such events ought to be timed in the first place. ^^

Hopefully the new Nameplate will unlock for me since the original one never did even though I completed all of the challenges.

I also hope it has the Rooskaya Protocols included instead of just the Red Room Takeover.

I don't have that information, but it may have the old nameplate available as well because the devs expressed how bad they felt about having new content being released and some people not being able to participate and enjoy the events.

The sad thing is I did participate in both events associated with Red Room Takeover. I did everything past the requirements and both the Rooskaya Protocols and Red Room Nameplates remained locked. I never was given the Team Temporal Assault Nameplate for the first event, Tachyon Anomaly either.

I was understandably skeptical but with this latest Cosmic Cube event, I actually unlocked the Team Nameplate. I noticed the Mission Summary layout has changed and it now displays unlocks such as Nameplates along with Gear. It may have something to do with it.

Good luck this time around. Red Room in approximately 4 hours from this post.

They felt so bad they never fixed the bugged event and told people tough luck.

They told it would be fixed for the repeat events, so everyone still gets plenty of chances to get their nameplates.

Well, the Rooskaya Protocols part of the Red Room Takeover didn't return. When the event went live, I instantly got a notification in-game saying "All Red Room Challenges Completed".

My Cosmetics shows two locked Nameplates: Team 001 and Team 002. The Event Challenge Assignment shows it rewards Team 002, but I'm hoping it will also retroactively give me Team 001 once I complete the challenges this second time.

1st red room in I can tell they certainly didn't fix everything...

All rooms can be completed in less than 5 minutes but finishing the missions and the "get exotic" mission will be a grind. Push a million enemies into the lava? This is going to be a long grind.

It's not a million. It's 350.

I have all of the challenges completed already except for "Quickly defeat Vaulted enemies" -- I don't recall that challenge last time but it must have been in there. Apparently it didn't give me any trouble before. This is all I have left for the event. I know Cap, Nat, Tony and Kamala can vault but it's just not happening. All I do is roll around.

Edit: I got it going now. I need to HOLD my dodge button and not just press it while running towards enemies. This is actually something I just naturally do when playing Cap or Widow. When I thought about it too much and actually tried to do it, it became frustrating.

Fun fact: If you vault over an enemy on a platform or near the edge, they automatically get kicked into the techno lava.

The other challenge which didn't seem to count no matter what I did or who I used, was "In a single wave, defeat seven or more enemies with Power or Signature Attacks" -- For one, there were only specific circumstances where I even had close to seven enemies. Also, the waves don't really last that long. What ended up counting was charging headshots with Black Widow's High-Caliber Shot.

[Andrew]

I only use the high-caliber shot... Not a fan of the Spray and Pray guns (I like the stun damage but you have to get in melee range, and if that is the case... just melee. I used to use the dual pistols but the damage is blah.

So yes, the Power Shots are not a big deal for me.

You misunderstand. I didn't have issues with the power shots. I almost always play Black Widow with the high-caliber shot as a sniper.

I'm commenting that Nat's charged High-Caliber Shot seemed to be the only Power Attack which counted for my progress. I lost count of how many times I attempted it with Cap's shield bash and Kamala's double punch and kick and even Thor's hammer smash both with and without Odinforce.

Thanks I'm having trouble with that too,
