You think you could splurge on something but you can't, you're in line to pay, you've made the order for it and nope bank rounded up.

in this case, yes. But - per your bank example - your bank basically knows that (almost) every number they are every dealing with - at least every number that might need to be formatted - is a currency. So they can apply rules accordingly. Like, because it's currency, your bank is rarely going to - if ever - truncate a number for UI "neatness." Your bank is always going to favor absolute precision in every case. But we use the same rounding and truncation logic for basically everything. Damage, kills, games played, KDR, and currency. And yes, we could "always round down." But does that make as much sense for games played? Or damage? I am less sure. And yes, you can make it like an optional arg - round down/round up - but then you have to think through what's "best" in every case, and then make sure you have test cases for all those things, and ... Well, that's why I had found this be such a whack-a-mole type of debugging process to get right.

So, like officially, i have literal nightmares about situations like this. I wrote - or at least inherited and rewrote - most of the original number shortening and formatting logic in Apex. It's been mostly replaced by a new system now, but the guts are mostly the same, so I have great empathy both for my teammate who wrote this code and for you having experienced what I guess I'd call a "quirk" of the system.

And - having done number shortening and formatting on another game as well - I can say that is probably one of the most complex and most "GOTCHA!" prone systems you can imagine. Largely because there's way, way more subjectivity than there might seem. Truncating trailing zeros, for example. 1.20K makes sense. But 1.20 makes less sense. Sometimes you want to round up.

This was probably a case where round down was better, but like, let's say you were 1 CM short, would 1,199 really make sense to round to 1.19 rather 1.20? It makes sense but also doesn't. It's m...

Hi, all. Thanks for the continued DMs - even if you haven't had a direct reply, know that I've been compiling these. One last update from me on this: if you have not seen progress restored for your Breakout Challenges, please create a ticket so that the team can manually look into your account.

Flagged with team. Will add to Trello if/when we can.

Cheers for the usernames, all. If you're still missing Breakout Challenge progress after our latest update and have not yet sent me your gamertag, please do. (here or chat)

If you're missing progress other than the Breakout Challenge, that is separate. Please create/add to a thread with EA so that your account can be looked into.

Pubs should be back up, let us know if you're seeing otherwise. May need to restart the game.

This is specifically for Breakout Challenge progress. If you're missing more than that, then you'll need to create a post with EA so that they can look into your account.

Been dealing with lost progress as a disabled player for 8 months now. would appreciate any contact:)

If you're missing anything more than just Breakout Challenges progress, then the issue is separate. You'll need to create a post with EA so that they can look into your account.

nebulaEXE, I've also created a support ticket with no follow up for 2 weeks now. I got rollbacked during that day + my challenge progress was not restored (missing heirloom shards I got that day aswell).

If you're missing content from the reset (more than just Breakout Challenges), then you'll need to create a post with EA so that they can look into your account.

If you could DM me your case number with Customer Support (should be 8 digits or so), I can have someone take a look into it.

Hey, all. If you're not seeing Breakout Challenge** progress restored, could you reply or drop me a chat with your username?

Cheers for the usernames so far. Some of y'all have great names. XD

Some Ranked Badge and Challenge Progression being lost recently is actively being investigated by the team.

Please keep watch on Socials for a follow-up on when those will be addressed.

But yes, the team is aware of these issues.

Hey there.

Any Apex Coins purchased during last week's incident (Apr 2nd - 3rd) should have already been reapplied to all impacted accounts.

If you still haven't received coins, I would suggest reaching out to Customer Support to look into your account.

This is a Make Good for all players due to the inconveniences caused recently.

The team is working hard to address concerns, we appreciate everyone's patience.
