A weird gift?

My ex-alliance member sent me some random gift. How is this possible and what is this? I got scared.

Want to know from Kabam if i m safe? Was it some hack or malware that might affect my account? Just reporting it here. This seemed very weird.

Looking at banner seems it's saga related as SQ she hulk image is there.

As long as it's not a malware that bans me, i m good. Hopefully it's something intended or prank

After getting it as gift, i got the item to gift someone else. So it's just an intended prank by Kabam. Nothing to worry i suppose. I will also send to someone.

It's a zombie thing. Marvel Zombies just came out. Halloween is next month. It's just a fun thing.

nothing more fun than sending out confusing messages when your player base already assumes that 50% of what Kabam releases is bugged or broken.

Guys, do you know how can i play again when i’m infected ?

Hi all.

Just out of curiosity how do you get the feature to gift someone? My partner just got "bitten" but we were wondering how to send gifts.

KabamPinwheel

Huh, look at that.

Taken any vitamin c lately?

Sundance_2099

Just tough it out, don't take any Tylenol.

Curious is this progression based or random? I have three alliance members which are Thronebreaker and haven't seen this. I'll need to double my account, I'm Paragon. Just curious.

johnlaw3742

its the FF ping device thingy ?

Either way its very bugged- I know a bug in the game- believe it or not!

I was able to send and receive a few of them.. at no cost, now I have lots of energy left and can’t send anymore.

I haven’t been bitten yet. Is that a good thing? Bad thing?

Suckmysigma

so what’s it do? How can I get one?

Curious too, but there is no answer from Kabam and the rest of us are just playing along with theme of it. Maybe we will know or maybe not…

u need to be gifted which no clue how it started but i finally got it from a friend which i sent to others no clue what it does though or what its suppose to hint at

BowTieJohn

Thank you @Bendy!

Guessing I may not see it, unless someone who knows me as a friend on mcoc or in my alliance gets it. Alright for now my alliance is free from the hunger virus.

Frumpy_geezer

I wonder if they're going to do some event with infected vs uninfected...
