I will be cryptic by design.

The current problems being experienced in Modern War may soon yield a very positive result.

A complete explanation will be forthcoming AFTER the problems have been rectified.

Do you think there is something more than you can see going on behind the scenes?

Will it be positive or negative in the end?

Frankly, I'm hoping we'll soon see a very positive change.

I guess they fixed some boost problems server-side but forgot to do a proper deployment to the production servers

Many people happy will be very happy when Gree details what they have done.

The boss fix is but a small part of what I think Gree is doing.

Goodness gracious, I do hope I'm right.

I hope you are right, that this is not yet another typical f...up, which we have had plenty off, but that this is an unfortunate mistake due to major positive change.

However you don't strike me as the naive optimist, so what's up?

Did they finally realize people are hacking the game? That the boosts aren't working server side? That someone forgot a decimal point and that is why the bosses are more difficult at high levels? I won't be holding my breath

Pure supposition, but there is an intriguing comment from CJ in one of his posts....Relating to builds.

Along with other current game issues mayhap we will soon see the end of the supposedly non-existent "no casualty" glitch...

One can hope..

Just cause he said he didn't know why that build should be coming up at all.

I always wondered if the reason some people got no casualties was due to an error on the players game side software. Something along the lines of the loss comes in, an acceptance is returned to the server but the actual event (unit loss) is nulled out and fails to do the reduction on the players device.

But wouldnt you eventually run out of units on the server side and start losing since all battles are calculated server side?

Not if the "get" function takes the info from the players side each time...

Example:
Server asks for and receives information.
Server calculates you lost three units and tells the player side this.
Player side says ok, but never actually removes the units as that command ends up in a null sector.
Next time the server asks, it gets the info from the player side but those "lost" units are still there and are accepted as valid.

CJ "said" even though the units do not show in your inventory, the server will account for them during battles. Seems to contradict your theory, but you would have to believe the server "accounts" for them first...

Perhaps just as the great majority of players in the game provide the "entertainment" for the higher level spenders within the game that this is a case of "Quid Pro Quo"...

Pirate Justice Is just returning the favor, keeping you entertained whilst the dev's are trying to fix the problems there end of things.

Then again.......he is a Pirate.....so he might just be playing with your mind and distracting you while "his crew" sneaks in and nicks all your Wavebreakers....

Im not talking him down , or at least its not my intention. I'm merely stating my opinion. Pirate Justice is a intregal part of this game. I'm only trying to figure " why now". Thats all. I have the utmost respect for the pirates. They, and Ferr are the ones who keep the wheels turning on this game. I only wish he wasn't so cryptive in his speakings. I just find it wierd that all the sudden he is making himself available on these forums as of late.

PS for what it's worth my PJ style 'guess' at what's going on is a new client update with scratchers (winning vote on the black panther survey) and nothing more. It's fcuked with the boss event somehow and oooops up side yer head.

I'd love for an unhackable, easy bosses for level 100+, no cas glitch free, working boosts game but let's be honest it ain't ever gonna happen.

I live in hope Speedump :-)

If they came out and said it was an issue and now confirmed as resolved I would join you, not in your league but would certainly spend a vault or three "visiting some old friends". Best bit is they would all be sitting on a lot of Valor so you could keep going back lots of times before that got exhausted.....

Ajk, its easy to figure out why hes spending more time here. For months and months we have been working as hard as anyone for changes. Not just hanges we would like for ourselves, but the same issues that evryone has complained about. We usually see and understand the ramifications of different issues right away, and voice our concerns to the powers that be. As we all know that can be very drustrating with the level of results that we have seen over time. The more visual and louder we are, the more people involved, the stronger our voice is. I think we have donr our part in proving our long term commitment to the game, and its only fair that we should be able to ask for and recieve solutions to long standing problems, and to also ask for new ideas to be implemented. Everyone wants something difefrent, but most of us agree on a good many things too, and those are the ones that should be of primary concern. I get the impression that some things are happening, and they will be ood things, will they fix everything, i seriously doubt it, will gree be any more forthcomming in the future? Dont expect major changes there either. My personal button at the moment os the no loss glitch ,and many players who are cheating. Im not saying the hackers, im saying tthe cheaters. There are many ways to scam itunes for money to buy things in these kind of games. Just google it. The havkers are easier to spot and get rid of.

There is not a single one of us who has not had a run in with glitchers. They really burn me the wrong way. I can beat them everytime but pay such a huge price for it. Millions in cash units and tens of thousands in Valor units. I know quite a few I want to go back to just to pummel becuase they have no economy and no real strategy and no real plans. Just shoot as much as possible becusae you never lose units.

Don't know answer to the dress up bit, as for the pretend bit.....

If you like I can P.M. You a few names so you can visit some in the game and either post the "fake gold" spam message, or multi message their board so that you "reset" their speed dials.

When they "pop in" to say "thank you" you can ask them about that. :-)
