October 2016 Tuning Update (LIVE)

[The Educated fool]

Good point. I think you're right... it does have potential to confuse new players.

I've been putting up with all the bugs in this game for a very long time now (since launch), and I was hoping that this latest update would fix at least some of them. However, I can't even play the game now (on Android 6). This was the last straw. Time to uninstall.

I feel ya brother. But I'm not throwing in the towel just yet. I am hoping they fix this and realize they have made a huge mistake. I am also hoping that the update I have been playing with is some kind of error. Give them a bit of time they are trying to fix major issues that fell into their lap.

Sorry about the communication blackout everyone. I've been keeping a pulse on the team's work throughout today and wanted to relay what I can before I head to bed.

Without getting into too many technical details (which I might still get wrong), the tuning update we tried to push out ran into complications, and when we tried to hold it back, it seems that some people got them anyways (partially). There's an issue in the app version of the game that's live which is preventing people from all being on the set of game data, so some people have new data and some people have old.

However, for anyone who does have tuning changes, the actual rewards being dropped are still the old values, because the servers are arbitrating the rewards. This likely is also why the 0 gold/0 XP/etc is occurring for people with the tuning changes; the client and server disagree on that and something is 0'ing out those numbers. From what I can tell, deleting your cache (Android)/deleting and reinstalling (iOS) should force you to redownload the entirety of the old data so you can at least get gold and XP again from battles. As with any time you're doing that, though, make sure you have your username/email/password saved and ready t

The team has fixes in place in an internal build. Much of our team (QA and other departments) have been helping to hammer it today, and we'll be continuing to work on it tomorrow to release ASAP.

Thank you very much Sparton for the detailed response.

Thanks for the info Sparton

My view of the update/nerf: I think that balancing out some of the chars is fine, but leveling everything out is wrong. Instead I think that you should have created more "peaks". What I mean is, talismans are being leveled out, more equal, but you if you would have taken, lets say green/ward, and made the "magic" rise equally as "overwhelming" when leveling from 4* to 5*, then it would have been more of a choice. The game is already made so that you're not overpowered against all, so this idea could probably have been applied to chars too, so that some of the never used chars in one way or the other could be overpowered, when facing x-toon. I hope you get what i mean.

Thank you, the reinstall brought me back to the old version where I again receive currency and my Pharaoh Eddie is restored to his former glory (albeit temporarily).

I do hope you guys will consider the feedback regarding the talismans...that's a tough one.

But I do want to say, I trust you guys are going to get this right despite the problems inherited and present hiccups. Thanks for your commitment to making this game great!

I'm gonna ask it again: What about players, who don't have the game sinced with FB/email/roundhouse account? I lost 2 days of playing,trooper badges,login rewards,etc. and i can't do anything about it, because my client is still stuck at the "additional data download". if i reinstall now i will lose all my data=can as well just delete the app and move on with my life(3 months of every day hardcore gaming and some real money invested will go down the drain, not because i did something wrong...)
