Major KA battle issue. I lost 3 hits worth of energy on 1 attack vs the dl leader. Then on my 4 th attack it did a 20 gem energy refill when i pressed the attack button. I then attacked 1 time and it worked then on the second attack it did an energy refill when I pressed attack again. So far I'm out 40 gems when I pressed the attack button! Help.
If this keeps up there is no way to fight in this event!

It's happening a lot. A full health bar will disappear with only 2/3 hits.

Makes me think fondly about the note I got from Gree support earlier today complaining about the 3 hit glitch in MW fight last weekend. They "checked" my records, and I actually was receiving 4 hits. No explanation given about why my wins only went up by 3.

I'm sure we are all still receiving 4 hits, it just "looks" like it's only 2-3.

Do I need to write "sarcasm" on this post?

You guys are lucky to get some hits. I started the war with zero health.
Just a wild guess, but maybe its the amount of health you had left from the last war?? Like when some guilds started with the points they had in the war before

There are also reports of people being debited 250 gems for only ONE refill. This is chaos.

Maestro

I was just ask for screen shots! How do I give a screen shot to show the attack button causing an energy refill. If they can see a 3hit glitch issue in MW why can't they see the attack button causing a energy refill in KA!

Berneburg
06-14-2013, 11:28 AM
I had 25 gems debited from my stach as well. Don't really want to attack again if gems are randomly "stolen" from me. I was not intending to use my Tapjoy gems for wars.

Same problem here. Def a no gem situation until its all cleared up. And no I was not credited with four hits either.

This EVENT NEEDS TO BE PUT ON HOLD NOW! Guys without gems are only getting 2 hits then running out of energy. No way to fairly play or compete for anyone with this issue. For gem or free players.

Zenobia

If so it's backfiring on them in a HUGE way. After the glitches no one in my guild is buying or spending ANY gems in this war until we are 100% positive it has been 100% corrected. It will now likely end up being another free war for us thou we had not decided before now which way we'd go ongems this one.

Once I used up all my health on initial barrage (I got three hits with full health), I waited for enough health for another hit. Once I got enough, I attacked again. I got the need to use 25 gems message and it took all my health and gave me zero credit for an attack.

Guess this is GREE's way of saying take the weekend off and go outside.

But if you already have gems, they might randomly be debited for hitting this weird button labeled "attack". Makes me not want to battle at all.

No, we had a new member (level 2 never been in a guild or war before) start of with 0 energy. This is pretty ridiculous. My team is frustrated to no end. 20 minutes into 1st war and already behind the 8 ball.

You did nothing about crediting people when they got locked out of the game so what about this time when people are losing real money .surely you have to do something this time.

Once the problem is fixed, will the players get reimbursed for lost gems??? I was also one of the unfortunate to lose gems.

Please keep to the forum guidelines. The negative comments are not going to make matters better or speed things along.

We are investigating the refill issues and working on fixes for the other reported issues.

Let us know when it has been resolved? What about the gems wasted. We had people doing power attacks on guardians and it did nothing. The stats are already messed up. A team of 12 totals up 15 wins, no losses and is out of energy. Is that just the cost of war?

Just an update on the matter, support does have the logs for each hit/refill used during the event and YES those that did have an issue will get the gems back to cover the hits missed. Note this isn't a full refund of everything spent but only a refund for the hit(s) that were missed out on.

I hope that clears things up a bit better on this issue!

Sirius are you serious? I did not intend to use the gems your game took from me, but once they were used to refill my energy (from hitting the attack button mind you, not the refill energy button) I used the hits. I would prefer to have those 4 hits deducted from my total and my gems back. It did not select to use gems you game did.

Zenobia
06-14-2013, 12:16 PM
The bigger questions, for me, are two:

1) Clearly, they did something to the mechanics of guild battles. And what they did messed up many aspects of the battles (how much health is used, no credit for attacks made, gems subtracted without authorization of the player, etc.). So my question is this: what exactly were they TRYING to change? What about the game mechanics, once the royal mess has been cleared up, is different this go-around? And why? And why were we not told in advance the battle mechanics would be different?

2) Will those who lost gems without authorizing their expenditure be credited back all gems lost? And in a timely manner? ETA: Sirius replied while I was typing but as Berneburg also replied, there are still questions there.

Zenobia
06-14-2013, 12:19 PM

And now it's your turn to make me laugh.

Actually I think it make it more confusing.

I attacked got and connection error, but think it recorded the hit, used 1/2 my health (missing 1 attack), I attacked again got a spinning cursor, then nothing. Think it recorded the hit again, but then found myself at full health and missing 25 gems. Then used and got 4 attacks from the erroneous gem usage thankfully without a problem.

So are you only going to
1) refund 12.5 gems for the 2 attacks that used 1/2 my health, ignoring the gem usage system error?
2) Or are you only going to refund 6.25 gems for the 1 attack that used 1/2 my health because the gem usage trumps the lost of the health it might have overridden?
3) Or do I get the 37.5 gems for the 2 attacks it used double health for and the 25 for the system deciding to use my gems.
4) or do you only give me my 25 gems back that your system used without my permission?

Shluggy
06-14-2013, 12:31 PM
Is there any point in putting in a ticket for me? We started first battle 20 minutes in so i managed to get word back before too many gems were lost. but for me, I didn't use any gems first battle but only got 2 hits. My point is we as a guild would have a lot more battle points so far if the glitch wasn't there, even with those who didn't use gems. For me it would be quite fair and even just a gesture if they gave every guild approx 300/400 points per active player which would slightly cover their lack of hits. Problem is this would probably be too much to work out and would infuriate the high gem spenders.
Anyway the glitch doesn't seem to have bothered some guilds, not mentioning any guilds in particular. but 2.5 million already???

Sometimes it shows over 500 allies but they arent able to bring more than 500 into battle so i wouldnt worry about it, i see it all the time.

the hour and a half refill does screw up my guilds battle times that we have set though.

My health regen is definitely affected as well. I have a 5% regen modifier from a unit, but having not taken a single hit in our second battle I am just over half full with 3 minutes left to go in the hour long battle. With my modifier I should be almost three quarters full.

Maestro
06-14-2013, 12:59 PM
Sirius pleas note that its not just hits that did not count but that no one wants to leave unused energy if the money may not get reimbursed. No one knew if it would or not. Also in my case I scout for my guild. When the results screen doesn't show up I can't help my team. In some cases I am not sure if I got a win because I was attacked or if it was a mystery win. I didn't want to spend any gems and it should show because I never hit the refill button. But I did need to scout for my team that was then afraid to attack. I never would have used a refill if not for this error. When your lv 131 you don't attack some one that's a lower level to score points but to help your team score points.

Zenobia
06-14-2013, 01:07 PM
As Schluggy already pointed out, this glitch has caused problems that cannot be redressed by Gree. Another example is this:

It only happens approximately 1 time per day over the course of a war, that we get a "cash cow" on the other team. Someone level 190-200, with low-to-medium defense, who give each of us that hits him a LOT of CP. I am in the 150s. Finding someone who gives me 300-425+ CP is a very rare thing, and something that NEEDS to be taken advantage of by when it does happen in order for our guild to fare as we should. Today it happened in the first battle. And none of us in my guild could take advantage of it because of all the glitches. So while Gree may fix the problems, we have essentially lost a ton of CP that we can only get back if we are matched against the same guild again, or another with a perfect cash cow, and when we have this many people online again.

Now, obviously that's not going to happen. I'm just pointing it out as another example of how this Gree screw-up has caused damage to guilds and guild members in way that cannot be redressed. There are some aspects of this that will not be corrected and will impact guilds' final standings. I really want to understand why they screwed with the battle mechanics (unless bugs just magically appeared out of the blue with no one touching the code, put in there by faeries) in the first place. What was so important that they HAD to get it coded for this war, and without telling us they were changing something?

I don't quite understand how you:

1. Reimburse me the energy for hits that never happened (I had 1 hit not "take")
2. How do I get my gems back after the game deducted them when I hit the attack button. Again, I want the gems, not the hits that I was forced to take in order not to waste the bugged refill.

I have seen no response that addresses

So if anyone still having problems.

I had a friend report to me that the problem disappeared for her after re-installing the game.

I am sitting out this war have some RL things I have to take care off this weekend so cannot confirm the problems or solutions my self.

Hope this gets resolved quickly.

If you were still having issues hope the re-install tip helps.

Good luck with wars everyone. :)
