Gems of War Dev Tracker

Like SilverStream, my first thought is to do connection troubleshooting, as it freezes right on the Xbox login - which usually indicates the game server is having issues connecting to Xbox Live.

Here are the connection troubleshooting steps we get people to run through:

We’re aware of this and have investigated several times since it was first reported, so far though it is incredibly hard to reproduce, and investigations into the code and what could cause it haven’t turned up what’s causing it.

So it’s under ongoing investigation.

Sorry folks, if we could see the cause we would definitely get a fix out ASAP but right now we’re not sure still.

Hey folks, following up on the Campaign popup:

This is a bug - but it will work itself through then work fine in future.

Basically the Campaign pop up happens at a maximum of once per week.

Because it is new and because we’re in week 5 of the Campaign, the game is currently basically catching us all up to the week 5 notification… so once its done that it will stop popping up every login.

This was not intended to work this way as we know pop ups are annoying as heck. We’re sorry that it’s running through the 5 pop ups after updating.

During QA testing it appeared to work as intended, so I’ll ask the team to find out how this was tested so we can improve our QA for these timed pop ups in future.

Just confirming tagging mods generally doesn’t get you a faster response, we’re checking almost every thread every day (outside of ie. Guild recruitment threads).

I will generally see you tagged me while I’m already in the thread reading it before I see a notification for it - we are pinged a lot across every platform we work on so they become noise rather than helpful alerts.

We get more pings than we can physically keep up with as a human being with 8 hours in our work day.

Obviously we check for PMs but we only reply to PMs on the forum if it’s about an issue between forum users (arguments, threats, privacy issues etc), or something else that should be done in private (ie. maybe we asked for an invite code or an email).

Because you mentioned it: we have in the past asked players to not ping us and explained it doesn’t make a difference but it is what it is, and that’s ok.

I think we should keep it on topic in this thread though please.

Hey, is everyone who has noticed this on Playstation and Switch? (any Xboxers, PC players with controllers, or PC/mobile players without controllers?)

Hey, are you playing the game in English or another language? (if so which one?). I just tested this and my troop wasn’t upgraded and no resources were taken.

This should only have triggered the first time you signed in. Did you get it more than once today on the same account?

Heyas, I’ve given this feedback to the team. I’ll let you all know what the plan is before the weekend.

The Dragonite Gnome (outside of GAPs) can drop a minimum of 20 Dragonite and a maximum of 100.

However, the chances of getting 100 Dragonite from a Dragonite Gnome are VERY low.

So on average, as a whole, players will earn around 30-40 Dragonite from the Gnome.

I thought the amount you folks were earning was very low, but then someone pointed out you’re encountering them in a GAP so you’re being affected by the low level explore balancer (not sure what else to call this) in your rewards.

The regular Gnome drops are a lot higher.

Posting here as well for visibility - I made a mistake on the Chaos Orb drop rate article sorry!
I basically ommitted just the Orb of Ingots from the list and it only added up to 90% chances for the Chaos Orb, after I added the Orb of Ingots to the Chaos Orb list, all 100% is accounted for.

I’ve double checked both lists and they are all good now.

That’s my bad, I missed Orb of Ingots from the article, fixing it now, it has a 10% chance.
I will double check both lists in the article to be sure.

Edit with update: Checked the article, only the Orb of Ingots was missing from the lists, sorry about that!

Which platform? It may have just not downloaded the latest text files when you first saw this window.

We have made some changes to the UI around Troop upgrades. These changes are intended to make Troop Upgrades easier for new players, and faster for existing players, and also allow us to add new orb types.

• The Troop Card popup in the Troop Collection Menu has new buttons:
  • Arrow Button – This is the Recruit button for a team (Controller still uses same shortcut)
  • Level Up Button – This takes players to the new Troop Level Up Menu
  • More Upgrades Button – This is wh...

We’ve released a fix for an issue with Xathenos’ spell, which may also fix this issue.
Please let me know if it keeps happening.

This issue should be fixed now, please let me know if you continue having trouble.
