Isn't the map rewards supposed to be tripled? We are running Map 5 for 4 days, and each day the map reward does not look like they have been tripled? We are getting the same as before. Shouldn't we at least get a little more since we are doing only 4 days out of 7, instead of 5 out of 8?
My exact sentiment. My alliance run map 5. For simplicity i will try to illustrate what is happening and will use Battle chips (BC) as comparison.
Before AQ Change Map 5 x 5 days BC 2225 per battlegroup. So 2225 x 3 battlegroup equals 6675 So for the 5 AQ days cycle we were all receiving 33,375 BC per member per AQ cyle
After AQ Change Map 5 x 4 days BC 2225. So according to the update our rewards will be tripled. 2225 x 3 equals 6675 At the end of, since we have been switched over to a 4 AQ days cycle we will receiving 26,700 BC per member per cycle
33,375 - 26700 equals 6675 BC. Where is the remaining 6675 BC??? We all are getting less BC now for those running running Map5. The only reason i love so deeply Map5 was because of the battle chips due to my time constraint and lack of desire to play countless hours arena.
Anyone notice it is near impossible to join AQ, it just keeps loading today, 20th November.. someone in my ally mention they experience same thing.. just wondering if it is same for everyone.. im located in Jersey.. EST..

For those that haven’t read the other places that have been commented on this.
*note, new week starts in about an hour, so new set of 4 entries for everyone will start all over.
Why was the AQ timer still running when according to the main post the week is supposed to end Sunday @1800 (1500 eastern)? We’ve started a new week of AQ without rewards from previous. With a continuous cycle, when can members switch alliances to make sure they don’t miss any rewards?
Our AQ map 6 enemy variation is the same as last week. I don't recall running the same map 2 weeks in a row prior to this new AQ format. Am I just forgetting that this happened before or is this a new issue?
Also, why was Anti-Venom swapped in on the 2nd section outside right path before Thor (Jane Foster) with the AQ format change? No enemy changes beyond the mini/boss were announced in the notifications that I can recall.

Oh, looks like it did say “Monday to Sunday”. Well, taking that it also said 7 days, that would be hard to have it end on Sunday after just 6 days. The last “day” would start in Sunday (if that's what it was intended to mean), and END on Mondays.
— And as to earlier ask of “when”, that was asked only 37 minutes after week ended (no matter how front-loaded you setup all your days, the week didn’t end until now). Too early at that time to expect rewards in such short time.
*** Update - After reviewing a recording of my fights, the Bonus buff is indeed working as intended, it’s just not showing that the buff was equipped.
Why are the Bonus Buffs at the start of the AQ map not equipping? For several days now, when I select the bonus buff when I check later it shows no bonus buffs equipped.
Appreciate your response, but looking for an official answer since there is no way to just tell from the information given. Currently you can be in bg1 on day 1 and bg2 on the other days, so in theory a 7 day run for a single player might be possible.
Nothing has been said that an alliance couldn’t set it up that way and shift players to different BGs on days that their first BG is off. Only that each BG can only enlist for up to 4 days.
There’s a bug with the AQ scheduler. We set 1 of our 3 bg’s to run from Tuesday - Friday to allow for a new player to be brought in, assuming aq rewards would be distributed on Monday afternoon. Aq started and the bg we moved to Tues - Fri reverted back to Mon - Thurs which we had run the previous week
Also, as of now, 10:09pm (pacific time) still no aq rank rewards.

Did you Setup the “then-Next” week for that Tues-Fri days *prior* to this past weeks series ending ? Or had the new week already started when you tried changing it, so that it won't be until the new Next week that will start ?
And was SAVE pressed so that the changes were saved ?
Last week, my Ally had a different Setup for the then “This” vs “Next”, and once new week started now we are correctly running what previously had been in the “Next” week setup. And (also correctly) what is now the new “This” week has also copied itself to be the starting setup for the new “Next” week.
After first week of playing we noticed that kabam said that the score over 4 days will be around the same as 5 days. Normal we make a score of 430k now we only scored 326k.
So what kabam has told is is not correct. The same with the rewards normal we get 3400 + 1100 aq cions and now only 3700. This also is a big set back and seems we player's pay the price of the change that kabam made.
How does kabam going to solve this. The scores and rewards difference is to large compared with old system.
If this stays like this please put back the old play style we player's are better off.

We are still to get rank rewards. Wait for the correction.
Something to keep in mind, although it would NOT seem to account for the various scoring/rewards problems being reported, is 2 other factors (which, yes, might mean a little less stuff earned each week).
(*) Since AQ Series' are now just 7 days instead of 8 days, it would be logical that for EACH Series(week) that we might get 1/8th less of rewards now, since we will be getting them 1/8th more often.
(*) Also (may or may not be considered relevant) is that our overall EFFORT put into AQ is now 3/56th LESS effort (less # of days spent doing AQ). So nearly 1/20th less effort (see other places if you want to see that 56 day cycle math). Even tinier than first point, and may not be considered in the new reward structure, but worth pointing out again anyways.

I trust in you kabam that you'll correct the errors.
Don't betray us.
The C word is about to be used.

MCoC really needs to have video tutorials once large changes are made to any game mode.
