I tried, the forum isn't allowing it from my iPad. Basically, the attack I made earlier now shows trophies in the log, whereas before it didn't. But that's now the second one down, I've made another attack just now and it shows zero trophies - but my trophy count has risen. Maybe there's some kind of delay, or it's just the top one in the list that shows zero. I'll monitor it.
Okay, no, this is more serious. Another attack made, the previous attack that showed zero trophies in the log now has a value, but the attack I just made shows zero. Worse than that, my trophy count didn't rise at all. I 3 starred the base.
Right, final update on this. I closed the app, restarted the client and the last battle shows trophies in the log - plus my trophy count has risen. This is all down to the first issue I mentioned, losing connection after a battle and before returning to the base. I just need to work around these issues while the servers are as they are. I'm not giving up, I started the first British alliance, British Cluckers, and we're full at 50 members.
Are there any plans to compensate players or do you just hope and pray everyone will forget your game was offline for 5-6 days in a row and still going
There will absolutely be compensation. Once everything is running smoothly, we'll be discussing it in more detail. This trophy issue is a curious one. It is likely all related to the larger server issues, but it's definitely something we'll have to keep an eye out for. So you know, we do also have our own forums for the game at: http://www.subatomicstudios.com/forum/forum/fieldrunners-attack-technical-support This might also help you parse any other issues you find. We're also active on Facebook and Twitter.
I asked about compensation for us subscription iap folks on facebook and they replied that there will be compensation for subscribers.
Quote "We are planning to compensate said players. We can't announce yet exactly what, but there will be more information." Should be noted, my question was directly about the subscribers so their response was just as specific.
I hate to sound like a whiner but I have to say this may be the worst launch of this type of strategy game in the entire history of the app store, as far as I can remember. It's almost unbelievable that a game that isn't ostensibly doing anything terribly new would launch in such a state. I guess that's why other companies have resorted to soft launches to prevent this kind of thing from happening. Personally I was this close to investing in some IAP when the servers just stopped working, now for days. My money went to Dawn of Titans instead, which plays fairly similarly conceptually and has far better graphics - but still lacks the charm of this game. I sincerely hope the developers can course correct and win back fans. I'm still willing to give them a chance but my patience is really wearing thin.
Same I almost subscribed but put my money into other games, as right when I was gonna buy the servers went down
Bah.... wife at Xmas party I was looking forward to playing... O well... time to fire up the PS4 Pro and the PSVR for Robinson:The Journey and Battlezone!
Question on Ammo Usage Anyone have a clear understanding of the ammo usage? It seems to be a bit random on how much ammo gets used up when I attack. Currently have 2 heroes. Sometimes uses 1 ammo, sometimes 2. Could have sworn it used 3 once but not 100% on that one. Tried posting this on the subatomic forum but I can't post on their forums from my iPad.
Connection lost befor battle Another day and I still can't go into battle. I am still getting the connection lost error. The problem is I have now run out of funds to build/upgrade the buildings I want. Seriously loosing patience especially as everyone else in my hood appears to still be playing.... Why can some play and some can't? Ickle
If any dev is reading this.... can we please please please get a fix for the crates not giving us anything once clicked??? Drives me crazy when clicking the 24 hour crate and having timer reset without getting the rewards...
We are definitely reading, and we are very aware of the issue. It's related to the larger server issues, and is part of what we are working on. We've been able to get the server up for some periods of time, but it's certainly not what we want it at yet. Believe me, we're absolutely feeling this one. We actually had a long-running (for much of the year) Soft Launch in Canada, and even right before the global launch, we did not run into these server issues. Unfortunately, the soft launch simply didn't provide the level of traffic that could have prepared us for this. We're still working on getting things to work consistently. Once we have everything fully sorted, come back and give us another try!
Bah.... saved up 16,000 in gold and just had my HQ hit 5 and with that my guns go be upgraded... I click the 12,000 gold 8hr build and as soon as I did the game crashed and upon logging back in my 12,000 is gone, turret still level 4 ... Also... I had 445 gems and log to 50 and then 3 minutes in it went to 312... The crates still don't open up after collecting.
Still getting connection lost when I go into battle.. I really don't understand how so many members of my team (Brexit) are playing and gaining trophies but I just can't attack and have not been able to for days.. Is it just me or are others still getting connection lost when you press the attack button? Ickle
