Bug? I don't know if this is a bug or not, but in the obedient dead deck, there is a card called blister beetle that says when blister beetle enters the battlefield, target creature gets -1/-1. If you play this card, you are forced to use the effect. That means if you summon this thing when there are no other creatures in play, you have to target the card itself, making it a useless suicide summon. There is no option to finish or cancel, so you are stuck using the effect on your own card to progress the game forward. It just seems odd, as I haven't encountered any other on-summon effect that works this way. And yes, I do realize blister beetle is a "bug". lol
That is correct. Unless the card includes includes phrasing stating you "may" do something, then you must. Even if the only valid targets are cards you wish you didn't have to target.
why did my player status change, and why are some of my decks that were previously unlocked and customized, like peacekeepers, now locked..? my campaign and challenge progress is reset, too. how do I fix this..? I see this is happening to others (according to the tech issues thread at wizards.com). I would post there myself, but I can't register since the user agreement is unreadable on the iPad (it won't let me scroll to the bottom). just got off the phone with wizards. they say there's no way to restore the data, so i have to play the whole thing again..? this can't be right, and there is no way I am doing this (hours of gameplay that i am not going to do again to simply get back to where i was). and they say I can't get a refund unless I go through apple (since I bought it from the app store). tell me there is another solution to this...
Mine was showing like that when I played it after unlocking 2 sets. I did not have any net at the time so It did not auto log me to gamecenter. When I went home and started the game, it logged me in automatically and my game was back to normal.
not happening here. I am logged into game center, but my decks are locked, except for the original ones. and even the born to flame deck, which I had previously unlocked all thirty cards for, shows 0/30 cards unlocked. my game center scores show correctly in game center, but incorrectly in the player status window...
Take my Money Now!!! Take my money now!!! This game is always been amazing and this may be the ultimate way to play it. Does it have local multiplayer and has anybody here tried it out?
Just happened to me. Come one guys! This is @&££@ horrible. A week of playing down the drain and all is lost. You know what, I ask apple a refund and delete magic for good. Starting over with the risk of loosing everything is not fun whatsoever. I could take the horrible UI, but this not.
I'm sorry to hear about the issue you are having with your saved data. Have you tried closing the app completely (so it's not running in the background), then logging out of game center, logging back in, then reopening the app? If that hasn't worked, please contact our customer service by going to http://wizards.custhelp.com/ .
talked to them. they say there is no way to restore the data. they say you have to play the whole thing again. they also say they currently can't keep it from happening again, but the developers are working on it, bit when the fix comes, it will only prevent it from happening again; here is no remedy for those of us who have already had it happen, and currently no promise that it won't happen again. this went from being my favorite game to one I won't play.
Is there a possibility of implementing icloud save? this could solve the problem. I had mine crashed and resetted my game to very beginning, too.
Can the people with disappearing progress play multiplayer online ? I've seen a couple reports of people having Game Center connectivity problems presently ... which would explain where your stuff went. ymmv
I should have stated horribl UI for me. There are various elements that make it tedious and slow and lot few annoying bugs. But that a nothing ... I just lost a week of playing and I am not amused. I am really thrown between risking and starting again or just ask a refund and delete.
I will keep an eye is GC is experiencing issues creating the problem. For the refund, ask apple. So far they have always honoured even if I haven t asked me for a few months (luckily) ... So things might have changed.
Same happened to me...fired up the game and it kicked me back to the beginning. All of my campaign progress and unlocked cards are gone. Not happy after dropping 10 bucks on this game...
sure, but you don't have your decks to play with. I am afraid to start over, because I don't want to overwrite data. but they (wizards customer support) told me that once it happens there is no way to get the data back. they also said the achievements might stay in game center, but there is no way to restore the in game progress, which means all decks that had been unlocked no longer are. I guess this happens automatically. and, at the moment, there is no guarantee that it won't happen again (since the problem is not fixed).
Ok, something is weird. The app now stated I have changed user in GC (not true) ... So it restarted and all is back! I suggest everybody who lost progress, tries one more time. It might be indeed a weird GC glitch.
I was not encouraging you to play MP, rather just to test to see if you can get into it as a means to ascertain whether or not Game Center connectivity was or was not an issue with the app. I would definitely not encourage actually completing any matches at all if you wish to retain your original progress. edit: oh, and regardless of what WotC CS told you, I doubt your progress just disappeared. They might not know what the issue is, but I dont' think it just vanished.
not here. I am still stuck at the beginning of the campaign, with decks locked, but achievements showing.
