I just want to say, I understand bugs happen. It's clearly a complex system to create, update, and maintain. I hope nothing I post is coming across as rude or offensive. I can be brash (or a smart ass) at times unintentionally.. it's just kind of my nature. In short, I realize you all don't WANT bugs and I don't mean to ever infer you are unsympathetic to issues. The bugs, to me... honestly just add a level of unpredictability to he game overall :) Basically... please read things as if I were smiling when posting.. I most often am :)

I do however, think the daily rollover should include a SOT refill (maybe a SOW too), that would help compensate users for some losses. If not a full refill then 50% or something. Just a suggestion. I realize that would mean a user could expend all SOT before the rollover... wait for it.. then have SOT again which kind of cuts down on some using refills. So.... well... I'm not the bean counter. :)

Emphasis mine.

That'd probably be why you're not getting a response; if you're spamming the system to take up more of the CS team's time, they're going to look into other people. We don't appreciate people who try to waste our CS team's time by trying to open multiple tickets for a single issue, as that unfairly wastes time they could be spending actually looking into and fixing people's problems.



I know a fix for a hang after reviving with Ironite is being fixed, but I'm not sure if that fix fixes the issue you're running into here, or if it's something separate.

Did that battle happen around the timestamp of your post?


We are aware of an issue where stolen buffs will duplicate the buff icon and the "empty" buff will remain even though it has technically expired or been removed.

no spam with 2 tickets with 2 different bug ^^
they just don't have the time or solution because it is a general issue i think

PvP has so many bugs I can not even mention them all. Normally I would address it one by one here but my pc broke and this forum sucks on phone format. It is extremely annoying to lose from bugs and crashes.

GET SOME FUCKING GAME TESTERS.

This is not the case with me. Were being taken advantage of by being free game testers cause they cant even test anything before releasing. Every single update brings more and more bugs while they "fix" old bugs. Its a vicious circle of anger and frustration that we really shouldnt have to deal with.

It's really not that hard to just test everything before releasing an update. Its common sense. Might as well rename the game to LOtB BETA.

Awesome, thanks for much for these details. Just a couple questions: are you reviving just before this attack that then leads to the freeze? If not, what wave of battle are you freezing on? Is it consistent, or does it seem to change?

I haven't been needing to revive, and the freezing is rather inconsistent. It actually has happened before on Crucible of Pain. Instead on the game hanging, the whole screen just freezes, it happened before the update, where I would give it time and it unfreezes. Similar to when you defeat the last wave of a mission and it freezes for a few seconds. Only recently it would freeze at random times and it never unfreezes.

But I was grinding Crucible of Pain this morning and didn't get any long term freezes so it is too random for me to exactly pinpoint.

No one... I mean NO ONE is forcing you to play this game. Your life does not depend upon it. In fact, your life may be richer if you did NOT play it. No one can "take advantage" of you unless you allow them to. If you do not like being a "free tester" as you put it... stop playing. It's that simple. If you are unable to stop, then certainly badgering, insulting, and belittling the people behind your unending supply of LOTB is really not the best way to see your issues resolved.

Hopefully this works for more of you than the last workaround I posted when I first joined the forums. When the game freezes in both PvP and love, I noticed if I shut off the screen for a few seconds than turn it back it on it helps lots of times. For the more stubborn occasions I'll open another window (YouTube, forum, etc) until the game music stops. Then I open the game window and it usually fixes the issue. Once in a while I get no success however. Good luck and if it helps let me know.

Heads up for everyone in this thread; the hotfix update is going live soon(-ish).

The fix is going to arrive in two waves:


Server update: This just went live about 6 minutes ago
App store update: This will go live in your platforms app store; Android should arrive within the next few hours, and iOS will come later, potentially taking a day or more (the latter taking longer due to it's update review process)


The fixes are as follows:


Fix for Trooper Eddie's Survive not reviving correctly (server update)
Fix for the game sometimes hanging on the victory or defeat screen (app store update)
Fix for certain cases of revive being able to cause a hang in combat (for example, from paid revive) (app store update)
Fix for combat kickers (damage, perfect timing, etc) not always displaying (app store update)
Fix for talisman information not being displayed/fetched properly for troopers (app store update)
Fix for the animations/SFX sometimes playing at incorrect speeds for Trooper Eddie (app store update)

Yup
11-24-2017, 11:55 PM
Also note that there's apparently an iOS11 update available as well. Not sure if that will alter anything for anyone or if it's been out for a bit. I just got presented with that alert a few moments ago, but it may have been delayed due to preference settings on my own devices.

I finally figured out a team for the Warlord that would basically allow me to spam his Ghost blade ability every turn, but now it seems that Aces High's Do or Die skill no longer applies permadeath to remove that perfect ghost status? Anybody else experiencing issues with this. I have to wait a few more days to see if this also affects the blue Lord of Light. It's too bad because I can see this particular team setup being pretty fun to play as well as effective against most teams.

Farmer - when you suggested this setup I tried it out but became frustrated when do or die would fail to permadeath the ghosts. I tested for a while and was only getting it to work around 50% of the time so I gave up and moved. On.

Yup, I can confirm this. I battled Don yesterday. I started. After his turn, all my toons are still alive. I used Clair's fury to get full health. Game freeze during the fury release. I waited a long time, tapping and swiping. Nothing happened. So I minimized the frame with the game (glad I did not close game), and opened a new frame and opened forum and made a post telling about it.
I then closed that frame and opened the frame with the game to force close the game, when Clair to my big surprice (and joy) continued releasing the fury. A win I thought lost became a win after all. 😅

Hope this can help others too.

Cool on the hot fix. Thanks for the update Spartan.

I also wanted to add a little positivity among all the negativity. The new store Frontier addition is very cool! The option to purchse the toon you want, and the skill shard pack is a really great feature! Really happy about that.

My first 2 pulls were both Trooper Eddie. Lol. Still I’m happy to get him first, and I can grab the others soon enough.

Now let’s get those bugs squashed.

anyone else finding it difficult to determine when one of your troopers last played? The update indicated that it would more accurately show when a trooper last played PVP, and that is fine. But when I look to see if I have any troopers that I can let go, to pick up a request, all have the same passage of time. I know that is not accurate as my daughter has not played in a month since she got a new phone. I did a little testing and I think it is actually showing when I last played PVP, and not the trooper.

Likewise Ezz. The first night I had the warlord Do or Die worked great in conjunction with Ghost Blade. I only tinkered around for maybe half hour - 45 minutes but it worked fine. Since then not so much thats why i was asking around if anybody else was seeing this. I guess I'll wait til Tuesday night and see how it works against blue Lol. Thanks for confirming.

Game updated when I logged in but the Bugs seem to be worse... couldn't complete 2 out of 3 arena matches. So irritating.

Found 2 bugs regarding Trooper Eddie.

1. His song no longer plays when you use his Fury

2. The Perfect Immunity granted by his Fury will cancel the Gunner Valkyrie passive. Her PI wears off and doesn't come back when it should still be infinite.

If Trooper Eddie used Spur and the allies gained Counterstrike, you don't see the buff.

Arena isn’t unplayable, but 2/10 I’ve had to force quit because of buttons disappearing. Odd bugs happening. No extra turn from AOF (no prisoner either team), my Dog got an extra turn once without AOF On team, I don’t have echo talis on him. One lock up last night after VHE revived. Several toons doing things they don’t have Talisman or the ability to do. Etc.

Interestingly enough, after writing that post I restarted the game and your trooper was still playable, like the game didn't save anything when it froze.

If it did that every time we had an error I'm sure things would be a bit better.

FarmerEddie
11-25-2017, 05:22 PM
Ha right on. I noticed that on a few rare occasions as well and I seem to recall Sparton mentioning them working on improvements in that area. Hopefully a sign of better things to come in regards to trooper use.

Spartan,

Just a few minutes ago against Shaolinlando. My Prisoner just got killed while invisible.
Also, VH killed even though UR-W was very much alive before and after attack. Prisoner on my team, but No passive blocker on his team.

Garden of Dismay X, locked up after Assassin Undead Rescuer with Immortal Talisman revived.

Side note, I apologize to my troopers, travelled over thanksgiving, so was gone for two days and didn’t get everyone done. , Also, because of lock ups, have lost points for a couple of you.

Edit: and, it happened again. Undead revives, game dead.

Edit 2: in the arena, was able to stun a toon that had immunity, was taunted while I had immunity, and void shields don’t really seem to be working imo.

Yup
11-25-2017, 10:03 PM
Viking Eddie - Endure Buff, once applied NEVER goes away even though he can be killed.

Shield graphics often do not go away once the shield is gone, leaving the spinning emblems which have no effect.

11-25-2017, 11:15 PM
Ok, I lied. The arena lock ups are worse than I’ve ever seen. I feel for you NF. I really do, you tried to put in new stuff, and it bricked again. The bugs are so many this time. The whole game has me murderous. *goes back to playing because masochist*

We're at the mercy of Apple's review schedule on a holiday weekend, so no idea. Hopefully by the other side of the weekend.

The Trooper Talisman Pack was only live for the Trooper debut event and went away with the end of that event (about 4 hours ago).

Seems like revive is a sure lockup in arena... Sure does mess up the current event.
To bad we have no ingame inbox so we can receive compensation for poor game performance. I love this game and have worked hard and spent a lot of real money to get where I'm at, which isn't far compared to a lot of top players, but still I'm starting to feel like I was ripped off when the game doesn't work properly. Sorry for the rant just very aggravating

JJJ428
11-26-2017, 08:19 PM
Well here is a new one AOF granting extra turns to the rest of his team while he was dead. I have seen him grant it when he gets revived and a kill happens but while he is killed the other team gets a kill and the whole team gets an extra turn is just crazy.

JJJ428
11-26-2017, 08:22 PM
And a 2nd time, this time it wasn't even when it killed someone on my side. First his entire team took their turn and then all were granted extra turns this is really getting out of control.

11-26-2017, 08:41 PM
I had the staring contest bug in the arena this morning, but something strange happened. When the character on the other team revived (I think it was Eternity Eddie) and the buttons disappeared, I tried hitting autoplay hoping for my toons to, at least, finish the battle. Apparently nothing happened, and after a few minutes I force closed the app. Surprisingly, when I headed back to the arena to fight again the same enemy, it was counted as a victory! So maybe if you hit autoplay the battle continues internally even if you don't see the toons moving. It's worth giving it a try if it happens!

If thats the case I am ready to give up this week put up a cheap defense and let people wrack up the wins against me. There is no defense against random free turns for an entire team. I wanted to see if this is happening for everyone who has AOF on their defense or this glitch is only working on a select few.

Nothin new, no secret, heavy hitters + AoF=cheap ass wins!!! Just had ur AoF grant 2 entire team extra turns. Then an error. How'd it look on ur end cuz we fiqured it out b4 that u don't get the hold but I got the loss of match & win streak!

Yep, so it worked correctly this time...the win/loss I mean. AoF should be banned from arena! Kinda important bug! Y I won't put it on defense. Use it on offense alot & it's bugged the opposite. Half the time u don't get the extra turn until the last kill??? Targeting the proper toon 2.

11-26-2017, 09:18 PM
I knew he would grant when he was revived which I didn't think was too bad because there are plenty of ways around that. But just random granting of extra turns like this is nuts honestly they need to just change his passive to something else. This extra turn BS is terrible and needs to be done away with. Its a shame that when it came to the decision between leaving broken mechanic in or having it not work at all they sided with leaving it in. I think I will change my defense for this event and let the free wins commence. :)

Cuz no ones playin! Top 25 2 weeks ago...zero refills! Walked away yesterday with an hour 2 go. Not cuz of bugs/freezes/crashes but cuz every fuckin list is 90% VHE...boring as shit! ♡ the start of the week, low ranks, lots of variety. Some can actually be challenging.

Don‘t take this game too serious brother. I have one of those defenses set in PvP and last thing I want is you to feel cheap with it! For me it’s for tactical reasons and I also think it’s not shit but I want it to be a little fun as there is not much left of this with all the fucking bugs in this game! AND I think we can help each other with it especially in running PvP event as wins are guaranteed and there are no losses due to many PvP bugs. So everybody would have a great chance to get enough fragments for the assassin krim. I’ve seen many of those defenses today and many are fun to watch and play. Thanks to all who set them! Like i said, take it easy! Should all be about the fun!

Yeah, I get the concept but destroying low level defenses is not fun, imo. If everyone was doin it...np. But when ur playin around in the top 50 or so it don't work.

Interesting that AoF doesn't even have to be alive to grant an extra turn to the team.... nice bug.

Fudjo
11-27-2017, 04:56 AM
With the change to Call To Arms, it immediately grants another turn. It also increases your Fury meter when you use it.

So you can use Call To Arms repeatedly to fill up your Fury meter every turn.

With a team of Wraths and Beelzebubs, you can fire off four Fury attacks every turn in PvP, or 3 in PvE.

This probably needs to be fixed. :)

I love this Game from the first minute i played it, i started early this year, after i get a new phone.
I was really happy to play it and i think it gets better but this combination of updates and events with so many bugs isn't that good in my opinion...

Actual it is again like an winter upgrade.., freezes everywhere, so many freezes, bugs and crashes..,
Waste of Ironite for SoW and SoT.., this is really annoying and gives the feel that the updates aren't tested enough..
But a lot of shop things to get more and more money..,
And for an arena event it sucks, when your teams suck as hell.., counterstrike doesn't work properly, your teammates are corrupt and destroys your own team. And so on..,
Sometimes it is funny :D but all over it sucks if you lose so much matches because of this, especially in an ARENA EVENT.... :/

I think there needs to be a change..,

this are the negative things, but i wanna mention, that i like this game, and i hope that NF will try to get better in future..,
It would be cool if you would more focus on game updates like "Night City" (which shows 'coming soon' when i started playing) and things which give us more gameplay features.., and not character after character and things to buy with real money!
I think lucky player will more often buy things, than people who gets a broken game..

Pls this isn't hate. only some critic in an i hope understandable english. xD
btw. this is my very first post in the history of playing this game. :D

An FYI to everyone following this thread; the iOS update has finally been approved, and should be available in your iOS App Store soon (if it hasn't propagated to it already).

This fixes the "hotfix" items that are listed at the bottom of the patch notes (http://forum.ironmaidenlegacy.com/showthread.php?9229-Trooper-Update-November-21st-2017).

An FYI to everyone following this thread; the iOS update has finally been approved, and should be available in your iOS App Store soon (if it hasn't propagated to it already).

This fixes the "hotfix" items that are listed at the bottom of the patch notes (http://forum.ironmaidenlegacy.com/showthread.php?9229-Trooper-Update-November-21st-2017).

Sparton, is the fix for the Claims/Achievements in this Hotfix? What about those of us who are missing the Crimson Pharaoh Dog fragments due to the Achievements bug?

Regarding issues with getting rewards from challenges (Daily, Mission, Achievement, or Event), I can only recommend you contact CS via the in-game Support button.

Our CS team is tracking the issue and working with the programmers to figure out when a fix will go out that will prevent this issue from occurring, and determining what rewards have been missed that can be gifted accordingly.

The hotfix update only fixes the items labeled as "November 24th Hotfix" at the bottom of the patch notes (http://forum.ironmaidenlegacy.com/showthread.php?9229). The counter/revenge issue is known and is being worked on (initial code changes have been made for our internal builds and we're working on updating data and testing to ensure the bug is cleanly fixed).

Thanks Sparton. I did contact Customer Support and received confirmation from them that they are working with the developers on a fix, but was hoping that the fix was in this patch.

No worries, I can wait...have two more Achievements that are lying there waiting to be claimed, but I’m just sitting tight on them until the fix...don’t want to lose anymore rewards.

That being said, with the Trooper Talisman Fix in place, will that now allow us to use Troopers to complete the missions?

The fix is that they were not being displayed correctly in the My Team screen, and that may have caused problems when using them in missions, but from what I understand, Missions will still not track progress from Troopers' characters (for stuff like the Zone Eater mission). That issue is still being investigated by the team.

Ok cool, thanks Sparton. Guess we can test it out and see whether it works.

I only have the Lightening/Predator ones left, but have to wait until Gunner LoL opens up on Saturday.

In PVP I went up against DYSTOPIA (cool name btw)
He has:
GRE
GCR
Sentinel harpy

I used:
Pharaoh
Beelz
Prisoner
Hellhound

From what I see, none of his toons can inflict permadeath. But Everyone on my team except eddie got permadeath'd somehow...

What am I missing? Is this a new bug? Are there permadeath talismans I don't know about?

Did his GCR or Harpy have Thorn Talismans that applied the shields? That could be the main reason why your team got Permadeth on them if you then attacked the shields with Physical or True damage.

Thorn talismans were equipped on one of his toons. They return True Damage and can apply Permadeath

Since when can someone get a critical heal???? Wtf

Facing Allied general, viking eddie, golden pharaoh dog, and dog of war.... just golden and general left. General uses his ability, and then the dog heals and gets a critical heal of 21k on the general... This caused a draw cause it had already been too long and I was frustrated when I saw that. A critical heal is just ridiculous.

Lol, yes he does...JJJ’s defense team is one which I just hate facing. But Kudos to him...I like facing his team and it is a good challenge. I don’t have VHE or any of the Valkyries, and I do ok thanks to some good advice from folks on here (esp. a few Eternals who are stellar dudes and very helpful). In fact, this attack team would win 100% if it weren’t for the stupid AoF bug which gives the entire (remaining) defense team an extra turn even if that team is a toon down already.

Btw, I have a good friend who has a maxed VHE but doesn’t use him, and is usually always in the top 10, so you really don’t need VHE to do well.

Since we are on the subject of VHE I was wondering if anyone else has seen lately when he revives with his fury the toons he revives do not come back with Crit status its only the toons that are already alive that are given crit status. If this is an intended nerf its one I am ok with. Even though I use VHE I still say his fury was/is over powered being able to revive everyone, give them all crit status and (before) do massive damage all in one move was beyond OP. At least now with less damage and if intended the toons he revive do not get crit status I might say its actually balanced.

Buffs are REALLY messed up. They appear and shouldn't, they duplicate, they don't appear but should, they should go away and don't... I don't trust ANY buff in the game right now. I've lost track of the amount of times I've killed a toon with the Endure buff active... or been attacked by a toon with the freeze buff active.

It seems only the yellow buffs are acting correctly. But to be fair.. I haven't been watching VHE revive.. other than to kill that bastard :)

dragonmat89
12-01-2017, 09:01 AM
I don't have VHE but I don't mind the revives/crit/etc. - the thing that gets my goat about him is the number of extra turns. I've had one (without echo talismans) take out my entire team one at a time before. One hit kills are fine and are part of the perk of having the toon, just limiting to one or two per turn would be good :P

Yup
12-01-2017, 07:24 PM
I haven't seen a VHE that can "one hit kill" anyone on my attack team.. it's those damn extra turns her gets that are ridiculous. I agree. But inevitably he's easy to kill... you just have to what what OTHER characters he's got with him. They make all the difference.

You really should hire new programmers and TEST you ******* updates before you push them live..,

Sparton, regarding Aces High Eddie's Do Or Die skill, I've been keeping a closer eye on what it does, and I am even more convinced that the move prioritizes removing a beneficial effect over turning the endure status to permadeath. A few scenarios that I have confirmed:

-If endure is the only status effect, it removes endure but does not inflict permadeath (the remove beneficial effects part went first and after removal, there was no endure to convert to permadeath).
-If an enemy has endure and another positive effect, sometimes it will remove endure and not inflict permadeath (in this case, the remove beneficial effects part chose endure to remove). In other cases, it will remove both effects and inflict permadeath (in this case, the remove beneficial effects part chose the other positive effect to remove, and then it saw the endure status and inflicted permadeath).
-If an enemy has perfect immortality it always turns it into permadeath as intended, regardless of if there are other positive effects on the enemy or not. This is because perfect immortality can only be removed with permadeath, so it always fails the check for removing beneficial effects, but then is turned into permadeath afterwards.

I haven't encountered immortality or ghost regularly enough to test, but I have to imagine these findings hold true for that as well. The solution seems to be to switch the priority. Have the move check for endure/immortality/ghost first, and then after inflicting permadeath have it remove a beneficial effect.

Hope this information helps!

Excellent summary Coletrain, and I agree, I noticed the same things and I use my Aces High all the time.

I can confirm that his “Do or Die” Skill does indeed work on the Magus LoL Boss and applies Permadeth successfully when the Boss is Ghosted, thereby killing him immediately.

There was a blip where it was missing from the store, but if you force close and relaunch your app, you should see them again. Sorry about them being missing for a bit.

EDIT: Actually, there may still be something still wrong with the PVP store setup. We're investigating.

I'm noticing Voids and Thorns don't seem to be reflecting damage or effects from counters - has anyone else spotted this? Damage is still reduced but there is no effect back at the countering toon/team. Could this be linked to the removal of multiple reflects bouncing between shields? They work fine during normal combat and taunts, just not from counters.

Sparton, will there ever be a fix for the 'cinema bug'? I just had to quit twice in a row against dje because of it. Annoying, as I would have won both times otherwise.

Would there also be a possibility for the game to detect when it's hanging due to a lack of input, and then register the fight as a Draw? Would prevent a lot of frustration I think.

EDIT: Both times it was the opponent's VHE casting a Fury against a Thorn Shield and then dying. Don't remember the specifics as much the first time, but the second time Enduring Talis on that VHE were probably involved too.

Will this fix also include the bugs with being unable to claim the Achievement and Daily Challenges? I have 5 Achievements waiting to be claimed but am not doing so lest I lose them like I did my Skill shards.

I'm definitely seeing no effect for damage types that previously were reflected from counters with thorns and voids, as well as attacks that are reflected normally (i.e. in normal combat rather than counters). Plus there are no secondary effects appearing at all (buff removal for voids/permakill for thorns) for counters.
