Hey all,

The in-game calendar stating that the LTQ was supposed to start today is incorrect. The LTQ is scheduled to start tomorrow. We apologize for the confusion.

So is the LTQ scheduled for the 28th to 2nd then?

Seems to be a recurring issue. Should probably double check the dates before implementing it, or is it just a convenient excuse?

CJ does nobody in Gree ever second check anything anyone does?

The amount of basic errors that are made is phenomenal.

Then we get some excuse that nobody believes.

The confusion was because of yet another error on their part. They do seem to screw up on the dates quite a bit. I know it's happened before, and I swear the splash screens for the last LTQ said if you finished prestige mode by 05/29 you would win the big prize. That date was obviously wrong. Someone over there needs to learn how to read a calendar. I'd try to teach them, but they don't seem to listen making it a waste of time.

CJ, for players in Europe or other timezones, please be more specific. For us in Europe tomorrow means Wednesday May 29. Please state date, time AND timezone as this game is played worldwide. Please confirm start LTQ on Tuesday May 28, 20:00 W-Europe time

How many times can you all do this before you make sure things are correct---in all of your games? You all should be paying attention to basic details that matter to your customers.

I'd also like to suggest that you consider some type of better support and communications on weekends and holidays. You run a game. You are a business, but your product is enterntainment. And that entertainment is done when people have time for it (evenings, weekends, and holidays). It is counterintuitive that you all do not schedule man hours accordingly. Get a grip on this before it is too late, please.

regarding pvp battles, iīd say it is a lottery....

announcements should be correct. It reminds me to the first ltq when it wasnīt said, thereīs a prestige mode.

And Memorial Day... like Easter... all those days donīt appear suddenly (lottery). Same mistake again and again...

I love it when CJ comes on here to try and clear up a prevailing issue. The immediate responses are like a pack or reporters at a presidential press conference looking for other answers to fifferents things, followed by people saying "I dont believe you" followed by people scolding the spokesperson for the general business model of the company.

It's positively pavlovian.

Its comforting to know that it only takes a multi-million dollar company around 12 hours to respond to a large problem they created (well at least the simplest of the large problems created).

Difficult to strategize in this game with almost no information and misinformation at times.

.

What I saw as an immediate response was a bunch of people in Europe asking for a specific time, which they have to do every time there is an event schedule foul-up. I would think that after all these times of screwing up the times on events, that CJ and/or the GREE folks would figure out that they should specify the time zone they are quoting times and/or dates in. It is a valid question that should not have to be re-asked.

There are many problems with your statement, I guess you have not been playing Modern War very long and therefore unaware of all the issues we have had in the past not the least of which are deadlines not being met. Since this is loosely a strategy game one would expect that it's players employ some strategy. Which can be difficult when game parameters are in a constant state of flux.

The complaints are born from the ongoing frustration of little to no communications from the company. Again a long standing issue and though things are considerably better then when I first started playing in Nov 2011 they are still far from ideal.

It seems to me that the programmers do what they please, screw deadlines and then hang support out to dry and face the irate customer base. Not an uncommon problem within smaller software companies where design staff are intensely into the product but totally fail to understand the importance of maintaining communications with their customer base.

Have you not wondered why there is a thread on here about wait times for support replies? Could it be an anomaly or perhaps it's actually a problem.

Then to make matters worse the parent company Gree is whittling or perhaps the better word is carving away at the remains of Funzio the original developers of this game as well as the one you use as your avatar...

So I assume if the person making your burger spits on it you would find that acceptable?

That is actually a very good question. I read his post and assumed he meant tomorrow as in the 28th but if you look at the date stamp on his message tomorrow could actually mean the 29th.

Actually to make things even more confusing he refers to the incorrect start date as today 27th even though his post is date stamped a day later.

CJ could you please post the actual dates please.

Very well put. i don't have a fraction of your game experience, but I was pleased just to have any communication from CJ at all. It seemed a couple of months ago, all these complaints just disappeared into the ether, but at least now we are getting 'yes, it is a problem, we are working on it'

Admittedly, it would be better if the response was 'here is the fix, this is when it will be implemented', but baby steps, I guess.

I'll wait and see if these fixes, like this one and the loot item bonus stacking are actually put into place, or if the can just gets kicked down the road.

cherlock
05-28-2013, 08:11 AM
its quit simple really

Gree works with PDT, but are in Japan, and are on the next date already theirselves.

So, If CJ posts at 1048PM, that the event will start tomorrow, this could very well be the day after
tomorrow, since Gree is already on "tomorrow"

Just imagine a phonecall between CJ and Gree HQ ( better not, you dont wanna go there)

the solution is very very very simple.

Gree, go on GMT

CJ, IN EVERY POST you should state a time and date like D/H/GMT

fi:
event will start on 28/20:00/GMT


everybody happy

Is this that difficult to understand, regardless of in what continent/country/timezone you are located? It starts 24 hours after the in-game calendar says it would start.

Expecting much more than mindless clicking and a little bit of economy planning from this game is silly. If you want strategy step up to tic-tac-toe then maybe step up to checkers.

Well, that's what you get when you assume.

I started playing CC the 2nd week of August 2011. I started playing every other Funzio game the day they were launched. Doesn't change my observation.

And I would not find it acceptable if someone making my "burger" spit on it, I just wouldn't do business with them. That is an option for you as well, rather than crafting bad analogies.

You are dealing with a company that is not very good at many of the things they do. That is patently obvious by now. So, do you continue to spend money hoping somehow that will change? Do you complain to the heavens hoping you will find somebody to listen? Or do you perhaps treat the game the way it should be treated, and let the market sort it out?

Your call, and not my problem.

I created this account just to let everyone know how sad it was that this game and the forum had degraded to.

My previous account which had less than 10 total post was pban without any given warning or notice for just 1 post in this thread. I admit its a trolling image, but that's about it.

Anyway, I had spend more than 1000 SGD on this game since I started on this game more than 1 year ago but the amount of problems and screwing with players and customers are just increasing by the day.

I do not regret spending the amount as I got a chance to meet real good people and friends in the faction I am in.
But the spending stops here. And good luck to gree and its lousy game...

(ps: if anyone wants to know what the trolling image was, please email me glyfone(at)yahoo.com)

Perhaps at certain levels and certain spending your anti-strategy statement is correct.
But for many of us, that spend between oh say $30/month there is a lot of strategy and the difference between 499th place and 550th is important.
There are many strategies and methods of play that can be used based on the player or factions goals and time commitment.

The issue we all have with the events not starting is the fact that it messes up strategies, sleep times, and faction member development.

It seem more and more that the missing schedule is not a calendar issue, but rather some software immaturity that Gree is not ready to acknowledge.
As a software engineer I often see such excuses when the deadline is over, but the software is just not ready yet...

CJ,
i have to ask. I don't expect an answer and you won't and shouln't answer. But consider this: aren't you mortified everytime an event starts, knowing that it will most likely fail in some very stupid way? Then you will have to read dozens of irate emails from customers you know are right, because you'd probably be mad if it happened to you. But your hands are tied so you cannot respond and you probably wouldn't know what to say from embarassment anyways. How is it to work for a company that -even from a purely objective standpoint - can't be called customer friendly? You know better. Amateuristic is probably the right way to call it.

What i don't get is: why do you still work there? You seem like a smart enough bloke. Is finding alternative employment werever you live so bad that it's this or nothing? If not, be smart and think about it. If it is, i truly am very sorry for you.

Do I start a 35hour upgrade or not that's the question:( haha

I would think you can start that upgrade as it will take X hours to build the initial building

You can sit around complaining about mistakes made by a company or you can suck it up and wait. I'm sure CJ will let us know when it's ready, or give us a reason it was further delayed. Be patient.

It's like I'm playing cards with my brothers kids or something.

CJ,
i have to ask. I don't expect an answer and you won't and shouln't. But consider this: aren't you mortified everytime an event starts, knowing that it will most likely fail in some very stupid way? Then you will have to read dozens of irate emails from customers you know are right, because you'd probably be mad if it happened to you. But your hands are tied so you cannot respond and probably wouldn't know what to say from embarassment anyways. How is it to work for a company that -even from a purely objective standpoint - can't be called customerfriendly? You know better. Amateuristic is probably the right way to call it.

What i don't get is: why do you still work there? You seem like a smart enough bloke. Is finding alternative employment werever you live so bad that it's this or nothing? If not, be smart and think about it. If it is, i truly very sorry for you.

Maybe the $$ is good, from the gold that the guys bought?? lol

Hey all,

The in-game calendar stating that the LTQ was supposed to start today is incorrect. The LTQ is scheduled to start tomorrow. We apologize for the confusion.

Can you just tell us what time it will start in each time zone???!!!!!!

Dutchie
05-28-2013, 12:36 PM
So you lied about the calendar issue?You're a true Gree employee

He didn't lie... He was trying to be helpful but sometimes some unforeseen things happen which you have no control over that causes delays

Don't shoot the messenger!

Says the guy trolling the threads about the event that was supposed to start.

I am sure CJ will tell us at some point what's going on. He has already responded today after it didn't start. That being said a customer I can still complain. It's like playing cards with my grandma's grandma or something.

The in-game calendar stating that the LTQ was supposed to start today is incorrect. The LTQ is scheduled to start tomorrow. We apologize for the confusion.

It seem more and more that the missing schedule is not a calendar issue, but rather some software immaturity that Gree is not ready to acknowledge.
As a software engineer I often see such excuses when the deadline is over, but the software is just not ready yet...
Apparently there is nothing new under the sun..

Whenever they tell you a time its based on PST (pacific Standard time) so just good what the zone difference is each time. Usually it's 11:am PST or 12:00 Noon PST so once you know the difference you can adjust accordinly each time.....assuming they share what time

How many times are we going to hear the same response. You guys have been looking into this since the first ltq. The problem still exists. I think the event will start as soon as we have figured out the problem would have been better then is will start tomorrow. If it ends on the second of June, then it should have started today.

Gree nor any of its employees have said anything about LE buildings coming every single war. this was only an assumption made by players. who knows - with everyone's constant whining, they may just decide to pull the plug on it.

asking every day about it won't change when it comes or how long we will have (and every other player will have) to do it.

so just drop it until it comes out.

Apologies for the delay guys.

The event was pushed out around 1:15 pm PST.

If you are still not seeing it, that means you need to download the latest dataset. On iOS, this happens automatically when you open up the game.

On Android, you have to open up the game and wait for it to download. If you do not see the event and you're on Android, stay logged on for 10 minutes, close the game, and open it.
