Is there a threshold that could be reached that would flag the player for a looping warning, perhaps in the future when the game can be analyzed? This could be a deterrant to ensure that the (evil) deck is played with the goal of reaching a win condition (Teferi mill, Chromium damage, etc).

Plausible for sure.

Is it true the guy who looped Nexus infinitely against Shahar Shenhar was only banned for 2 hours?

Correct, it was an initial ban with an e-mail sent to them explaining why. Repeat offenses would escalate the time, with the potential of the account being permabanned. The first goal is to educate the player to stop the bad behavior. If they don't respond to that, then we escalate.

I bow before our new digital overlords.

Dublin, Ireland here.

I've noticed that the in-game mouse cursor stays responsive while the rest of the game freezes up. Maybe that'll help to identify the problem?

My GPU is a GTX 1070.

With everyone so far being over the pond, and knowing that the cursor stays responsive my experience say this is an internet issue. We're investigating.

If its happening when you play a card (or when the opponent does) I'd expect it to be an issue with communicating with the servers, or an issue processing the game state from the server and not a video card issue.

Can people having the issue share rough geo-locations?

It's annoying that you start to time out when your opponent combos off. Timed out because a life gain deck was comboing off, and had about 20 triggers to all manually click resolve on.

Definitely not a feature I like.

Just wanted to pop in to say this is something we're actively working on. Specifically around how to address instances when there's a large stack that needs resolving.

Oh man, what a read to start my Monday morning. So many mixed emotions.

At least you get a nice strong hug before you're smashed into the ground...

We couldn't reproduce this in house. Do you have a twitch clip of the issue or a more complete reproduction of the steps to see the issue?

Comment

I forwarded this to our build group, we're investigating.

I'm referring to when I open the game I get a notice telling me I need to run the installer to update.

Are you running MTGA.exe or are you running the MtgaLauncher.exe first? The launcher is located next to MTGA.exe in C:\Program Files (x86)\Wizards of the Coast\MTGA

If you run MtgaLauncher.exe the game should just update itself.

Thanks Charlie. I have submitted (ticket ID #543436).

Though when I try to sign into https://mtgarena-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/signin with my user name and password - it says it's incorrect.

I have the same user/pass for the client and forums.mtgarena.com. So not sure what to do.

It should be okay if you don’t log in, you should have an email and our support folks will chat with you through that thread.

Anyone else getting this issue? I need help.

I've searched reddit and the official forums, troubleshooting on my own and I can't get anything to work.

Tried 1) Uninstalling everything via Revo Unisntaller and installing again

2) Turning off virus checkers

3) Changing my DNS and flushing https://forums.mtgarena.com/forums/threads/39131

https://mtgarena-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000834323-Flush-DNS-and-Winsock-Reset

4) Running a windows clean disk

5) Removing and adding from my windows host file C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

6) ...

Sorry for all of the headache, Lejind. Your client is pointing at the right place, I'm not sure why it would be timing out. We'll probably need to troubleshoot further with you step by step. Can you open a support ticket with us if you haven't already? https://mtgarena-support.wizards.com/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=360000003203

/u/WotC_Charlie Any chance to get some kind of statement of what is going to stay and not in the output logs when the full game releases? The information provided is very useful and a lot of people use it. Would love to get into a log parser project myself but I am hesitant to make stuff that breaks as soon as the game releases and debug info is gone.

If we make any significant changes we will do our best to communicate about those ahead of time.

We’re currently not planning to reduce the amount of logging — if anything it will get more verbose, but can’t promise anything there.

Changes do happen, and it’s hard for us to keep track of what changes might be breaking for folks.

It's almost patch time!

In an effort to reduce the scrambling required by anyone who parses our output logs, we've gone ahead and captured an advanced sample copy.

https://gist.github.com/WotC-Charlie/public

Enjoy!

Edit: Since it's a set release, we've also included cards.json and loc.json, so you can match up our new IDs to card names.
