additions and tuning improvements to the game are definitely welcome. Do we have any info on some of the greater bug issues that are plaguing the game? Specifically:
1) Android login but that has some folks blocked out of the game for 2 months now
2) crashes of the game while starting a battle in Time Rifts (most often level 7)
3) hard freezes of the game while already in a battle of Time Rifts (again, mostly in level 7)
4) other crashes when starting a battle in the dungeons or special locations
personally, i feel the length of time so far for item #1 is mind blowing, but ultimately, i just want my fellow troopers to be able to play again that i know are locked out because of this issue.
How big is the update? I have 200MB left in my 3G plan and I don't want to blow it all :(
Yeah, internet and 3G in Brazil sucks A LOT.
You have to do the dungeons or get lucky when doing secret location to get 3* evo shards. You can however get 3* evo runes and 3* colorless evo shards from campaign. Good luck and cheer up lad! 😃Quote:

Will the drop rate for 2* red evo runes be improved with this update?
Thanks!

3) One of the bug fixes (for the reviving minion) relates to that. I think we also had a fix for the notorious reflect all killing countering enemies bug, but I'm not sure if we thoroughly tested that it fixes it in all situations or just reduces the likelihood
4) Same as 2
I'm not sure exactly, but the app store update should be roughly the same size as the previous update. The additional data for new characters/environments shouldn't take up too much of that remaining amount you listed.Quote:

Fingers crossed. I miss Jennie, she's been locked out for 57 days now according to my trooper list, and definitely due to this bug.Quote:

Sparton,
When the event is over will the new characters still be available to get. What I mean is since the space couldn't be updated, will I still be able to aquire the new toons when I do get room?
Thanks
Anyone besides me wearing out their thumb hitting refresh...? This is killing me!
Naaa No point wasting battery, i just watch for the Title to change fromQuote:

Stoked though. A great game that has a great team behind it now. Can't wait.
Follow-up regarding this... the change we did for War-Torn was intended to slightly reduce the damage, but the way his numbers for the base skill and the numbers for the skill shard improvements were not aligning, so it seems something unintended was definitely occurring. We're going to internally test with values along the lines of what we're expecting, which should fix his damage output. This will not go live this week/weekend, though.Quote:

This will be clarified in the Halloween Event thread.Quote:

Just a heads up to everyone, we're leaving Maintenance Mode up for a bit longer. We're triple checking some stuff and still waiting for the update to propagate to all countries in both stores.
Son of a rat bastage, daughter of a brick!
*starting to get the shakes*
Hey Sparton, please answer, I saw the splash screen that Vampiric Talisman set heals 15% on perfect hits, but the live version of this set only heals for 15% HP in PHYSICAL damage type attacks. Will they now work with all types of damage?
Game changer update now the game got started
Yup! All old ones you got from founders pack/early secret location drops/etc will be updated with this functionality. But since it doesn't drop elsewhere, this'll be your opportunity to get more!Quote:

Just downloaded the update from the US iPhone App Store!
Yes, the event will drop both sub-types.Quote:

Hello developer team!
This is so good news! I remember that i have mentioned about Pharaoh Sand Spirit's talisman slot issue before. Its so nice to see that it will be fixed. It feels like I have participated with game development even it is small, which feels very good. I really appreciated your efforts.
And one question:
Since i am a hard-die fan of Iron Maiden - Powerslave album and ancient egyptian mythology ( I believe there is many in our community), does Horus & Aset and Sekhmet (Goddess of destruction) will be playable chars in the future? Because as I see Horus is Sentinel, Goddess Aset is Magus and Goddess Sekhmet is in Warrior class. Which looks like pretty badass ancient egyptian gods team. If you guys add them as playable chars, I believe you will make many people happy and more attracted to the game.
Is it just me?
I got the iOS update and got super giddy, but I'm still not able to log on. Still saying that server maintanence is happening. That one hour update is looking like a three hour festival of pain and withdrawal... can anyone log on and play?
Not complaining, (yes I am -- because I'm an impatient hack) I'm just excited for some new content!
Thanks.
Well, my fellow Powerslave fan, that is a secret :)Quote:

Looks like a great update. I can't express how pleased to see an actual Halloween event!!! :D
So I guess we Europeans are ******* again (as usual) after 5 hours instead of one hour downtime, were losing a day out of the Halloween event :( (already passed the 2 minutes to midnight). Sorry to my troopers, I go to bed now ...
Just a heads up for everyone; we're wrapping up the extra chest we need to do. Maintenance mode should turn off soon. I will update the first post accordingly.
That said, we did find an unfortunate bug to be aware of: troopers will count towards the max party cost, so lower and mid-level players may need to adjust their teams accordingly to use all of their troopers. We will fix this by making troopers free in terms of party cost in a subsequent update.
Thx Sparton, I will try to stay awake so that I can use my SoT before I hit the bed. Keep up the good work, and have a nice weekend btw. 😃
