Do you plan on reworking gadgets? Literally 80% of players just use hover turret and adrenaline rush, it would be nice to see some variety

We've made some balance adjustments to gadgets in 8.00 to make some other options more competitive. We'll be keeping an eye on these and iterating going forward.

With the free hero voucher we are receiving tomorrow, would we be able to Recruit heroes we don't have in the CB from previous events that are tied to a questline (for example: Carbide) ?

Yes. Carbide should be available for recruitment (for a voucher) on the Blockbuster page.

As of right now in the game, if I'm using a constructor (say Heavy Base) and another friend of mine is using a Power Base, the person who places their B.A.S.E. second has their B.A.S.E. wasted if the B.A.S.E. covered tiles are overlapping. For example, in an SSD, if I place a Heavy Base B.A.S.E. and then then Power Base places his B.A.S.E., then the healing effect of Power Base's B.A.S.E. will not be applied on the tiles on which these B.A.S.E.s are overlapping. Is this intentional? If not, is it being addressed in v8.0?

Not in 8.00 but thanks for raising this - needs a discussion for sure. There are potentially balance and performance concerns here, but ideally each player would get full benefit from abilities.

With the AFK system overhaul not currently acting as a deterrent for many abusers, how will toxic behaviour / afk'ing and general asshattery be managed ?

We're still iterating through the AFK system. We believe we haven't exhausted all our options in making this system better. We're going to be making more improvements in season 8, some visible and some not (we don't want people to game the system). Please sending us feedback, it does make the system and the game better.

Yes you will, at the same ratio as the conversion (240 Gold per 100 Coins)

Any plans to make the rewards in the collection book better? Currently they are a bit underwhelming being at level 285 and pl130

Revamping the collection book's functionality/rewards is on our radar, though unlikely to be within the next season or two.

We're planning on a bunch of SSD quality of life improvements soon. Won't be season 8 though.

Any changes to the functionality or visibility of alerts in game? Ie. Seeing cooldowns

We aren't happy with how obscured Mission Alert quotas currently are, and are planning to make changes to them, tentatively in the late season 8 or early season 9 timeframe. The design isn't completely nailed down yet, so we can't share further details at this time.

Will we be able to unslot every hero in our book including every rarity for each hero if available?

Yup!

Are there any plans to revamp the In-game hud/UI? As it stands, it could use an update to reduce clutter and improve some things.

We do want to update the HUD but it won't be in S8, but we agree we can do better here.

In 7.40, there was a bug fix where schematics would not give back their perk materials when recycled, that had been leveled up after patch 7.20. But I haven't been rewarded my perk materials from the schematics I recycled during that period, despite writing two separate tickets concerning two separate maxed out schematics. Will I ever get my materials back?

Don't want to make specific promises for your account, but we do have a check rolling out in 8.00 that will attempt to grant missed materials around this bug. Thanks for your patience!

What about SSD‘s? We all love them and want to continue playing them even after Twine SSD10. Have u thought about adding additional ones (or maybe unlimited) that grant special rewards?

We're going to be adding some awesome SSD improvements in seasons after 8.

Do you plan to add areas after twine peaks?

We're experimenting with different types of area content, but going to take some time. Really want to see bigger maps!
