In all seriousness, I don’t have an eta I’m sorry. We’ve poked the team again and will let you all know if we get any specific details. The info I have is in the upcoming weeks.

Also, this is one of those things we hope to have improved systems and automation for to prevent this sort of delay in future.

Thank you all for your incredible patience

Smokes Pipe and tilts front of hat down more in concentration

Lead Detective Kafka reporting from deep under cover assignment.

Uhhhh…The word on the streets is that The Hanged Man is infact a woman!
I’ve managed to hitch a ride on a less than reputable ship to follow more leads.

I suspect this voyage will lead me to the body and I will return in the coming weeks with her so the proper arrangements can be made.

Please keep an eye on the weekly bulletin for the exact date of my return.
I wouldn’t want to pre-emptively alert of my return with the victim before she is safely away in the burial Vault.

Quick update:

I’ve made the bug report and done a little testing.

I can confirm that bonuses not being applied in the Collection menu when you select a Troop from inside a team on the left hand side are:

  • Pet
  • Team Kingdom
  • Team Troop Type
  • Team Color

The following bonuses are applying correctly in the Collection menu when selecting a troop from the left side inside a team:

  • Kingdom
  • Guild
  • Renown

We always show base stats in the collection prior to bonuses so you know what your base cards have on them.

However, I thought it did show you the team bonuses if you put the troop on a team then checked it from the team… So this might be a new bug.

I will report this just to check it’s not something that slipped in.

I believe this is probably on the list of things to automate in terms of rotation - there’s a few things like this at the moment. I’m not sure if they’ll ever all be available at once as from a business side of things it does help to have rotating offers. I think that’s pretty common knowledge so I should be ok to share that with you as it’s just how shops work in every kind of retail?

It’s about balancing what feels great as a player vs what meets business needs so we can keep this ship sailing powerfully through the waves :slight_smile: don’t ask me why I’m thinking of boats right now. It’s an ADHD kind of day.

I’ll let the designers know you’re all keen for more Warbands or something more to do with War Coins as they’re stacking up. I’m sure there’s already plans though it just has to slot in with everything else we’re doing as well :slight_smile:

I’ll also mention how maybe the appearance rate of War Coins for mid-endgamers might be running a bit high so the data folks can check what kind of stash we’re all sitting on and see if there’s any adjustments that can be made that makes sense when taking the overall playerbase into consideration as most of the people here in the forum are hardcore so your experience skews a bit different from the middle of the bell curve - your experience is super important but it just means there may need to be more nuance to any solution depending on what the data says about the rest of the playerbase as well!

Just saw this, going to go open my DMs now, just give me like 5 mins :slight_smile:

Also sorry, reading back over my post on friday it was a bit dark I guess - let’s blame it on end of week brain. I forget sometimes that it’s not really common knowledge what sort of stuff we deal with all the time and I wasn’t trying to draw attention to it, just being like, out of all the people I hear criticism from Four wouldn’t be a bad one as I know he’s usually pretty respectful and reasonable to talk with :sweat_smile:

Hi keen observers!

If you play on PC, mobile or console you may notice a very small game update today. If you do notice and you’re wondering what that was about:

This update only contains changes to the back end of the game and has nothing in it that touches any of the game features etc. so no changes to playing.

Happy gem smashing!

It looks like there’s an issue in being able to release it at the usual time sorry :frowning:

I’m hoping it will be out by Monday 13th November. We’ll keep you posted!

  1. Will be fixed in 7.3

  2. Request we’re aware of already. I’ll raise it again before the end of the year to see if we can get eyeballs on it - can’t fit into 7.3 - can’t promise anything at this stage, but it’s a reasonable request!

  3. We’re already talking about changes for this - probably not 7.3 though due to time constraints (we were already in the middle of 7.3 development when 7.2 officially released)

Hey folks,

We’re working on getting the fix out today.
This will also include putting Treasure Guardian Rooms on some dead end map tiles that have already been revealed.

If you have played the dead end battle you will see the Treasure Guardian Room chest which you can open.

We’ll also be sending out 10 Torches for everyone.

Thanks all for your patience while we’ve been working on this!

If you don’t use the auto click feature then you can safely use the controller without worrying about it triggering hack detection.

Yes for sure!

If you write a ticket and you don’t want one of the CX team to answer it my Manager will answer it.

I really think this will suffice, but if you really want me to open my DMs on here I will, but I’m not sure I’m the person you want to talk to about it either. I’d really much prefer a ticket as it sounds like whatever you want to talk about might be something I discuss with my manager afterwards regardless.

If you feel like it might upset staff or feel insulting, maybe, I don’t know what it is you’re going to write, but we literally have players threatening us IRL on the regular so whatever you’re going to write is probably just par for the course for a Friday. I don’t think you’re going to try to be insulting or to upset anyone, so whatever you’re going to write is probably going to be far less bad to read than whatever else we’ve dealt with this week.

We’re also fully aware of communication issues - I’ve been doing this for a very long time. I will say things a...

Hmmm, I’ve not encountered issues with the Xbox Elite Controller and hack detection.
I’ll ask the team how that fits into the picture and if there’s a risk there I’ll prod for it to be addressed.

I’m not sure I’ll be able to provide more info than that about it.
Bit of a - this is a genuine concern but have to think about how my answer could assist cheat creaters.

Leave it with me.

Playing all weekend isn’t unusual, it’s hardcore - or possibly someone with a bad case of insomnia and a lot of energy drinks on their hands :slight_smile:

I can’t go into details about how we detect tools being used but we have checks in place for all sorts of things just to ensure the smooth running of the game, some of those checks allow us to tell if files have been modified or tools are being used.

Just sticking my head in here to let you know I’ve asked about this and will let you know once I have an answer.

I know a team member who has probably been waiting for this feedback request their whole life @Jeto :rofl:
