If. You read the title it was moved back.

[bobtodd]

come on gree .is the company owned by monkeys. your jobs are not that hard

[(BF) Tuna]

Shows in progress.. nothing in "Goal List" though. Why can't you just push both datasets through simultaneously?? Seems redundant to me..

and why is this fox jumping over a dog all the time??


pushed back... smh

[ploop]

what about the 30 times to beat the boss. everybody needs to know

[TheOracle]

Sorry guys! Ran into some issues. The event start time has been pushed back a bit. We will also be releasing the limited building event at the same time.

I will be getting the Ellis Island Outbreak ranks up as soon as I get them.

[xASHx]

Im on the east coast and if the event is scheduled to release at 3pst i dont get the data till 6..630..but when it ends it end at 3 SHARP..i dont get the 3 hours time diff....anyone else on the east coast have this issue?

[jeffrey25]

not really....it usually does take an hour or so for the dataset to get picked up.....

i think with this one TheOracle just said they ran into a snafoo and had to delay the dataset push

[xASHx]

Understand that but its not just this event...its been ALL of em...n like i said they end 3 sharp my time but its still only 12 pst

[Smallestelf]

thanks for letting us know this in advance :)

[SC4R]

Woohoo! it's ~4:30!

[brandocommando]

Woohoo! it's ~4:30!

And still no boss... lol

[Chica]

Does say approximately

[Triga Treat]

Knowing Gree "approximately" means +/- 24 hours

-Triga


Does say approximately

[erickd271]

Still nothing......

[Glowe]

any one get it yet?

[Msteel]

I got nothing yet.. but looking forward to beating the boss for the fourth time in a row

[Laelia]

nothing.....zip......nada

[bobtodd]

almost an hour late as usual

[erickd271]

Might start @9pm eastern I guess

[poo hands]

I heard the rogues gallery had it delayed

[Timmaaay]

First people complaint Gree doesnt say anything. Now people are *****ing when they say "~4:30" and its 5:26 Gree time. People find a way to ***** about everything. If it gets pushed with no glitches, isnt that better!? I appreciate the transparency by Gree at least giving us an "approximate" time better than no comment at all...

People need to bleeping about people bleeping its getting bleeping, it happens every bleeping thread these bleeping days... BLEEP...

That's like saying I can't believe people complained in the restaurant when the waiter brought out the wrong steak, then they go get the right steak but can't believe they complain when it's well done when ordered rare.

~4:30 counts as good communication if it's out at about 4:30, if you give an estimate that includes half hours, it would probably be good to give an update once you're over an hour late.

Compliments to GREE for improving from piss-poor to sub-standard on communication issues. Bravo!!

[Smallestelf]

new data set

[Guisseppe17]

Your wait is over people.

And ban in 3, 2, 1....

[Bandit_]

Well event shows, just haven't been able to get it to trigger.

[mr argo]

Hi, how is this triggered?

[bobtodd]

not triggering

[Yowzuh]

ditto - not triggering yet (android or iOS) but the countdown works.

[erickd271]

triggered it, on boss 5 already...

[bobtodd]

working finally

[The Fonz]

Hi, how is this triggered?
Doing a low XP job (1 XP max) always works for me. If you want to avoid earning XP altogether and still trigger a boss, you can pick a fight with someone in the Rivals' List you're likely to lose against (i.e. has considerably higher A/D stats).

[TheOracle]

Sorry I wasn't able to get you guys an update as we were working on getting it out and everyone should be able to trigger the boss now. If not, close your game and re-open it. Please let me know if you see any issues.

[Grasshopper1108]

Try everything, still can't get it to trigger.

[evilmind]

Me neither, I cannot get it to trigger both on my iPad and iPhone.

[Darryll98]

any list of common, uncommon, & rare items?

[Klideas]

Not triggering. iPad4 and iPhone 4S

[Chica]

What level are you?

[MWWM J]

Not triggering. Iphone 4

[Limerick]

The event will trigger. I had to use 2000 energy and 20 stamina to get the first boss, but then it was easy after that.

[evilmind]

It just triggered on my iPad, wouhou!

[Klideas]

I'm lvl 131 and 56 so I now it's not that.

[Crazzy88s']

Hi, I have defeated the boss 7/20 times and I had all the splash popups and the ones saying i won and the items I am supposed to receive but when I check my inventory they are not there, not one of the prizes I won! Plus none of my attack or defense were updated either! :(

I've sent in a ticket (ticket #868894) but now I don't know if I should continue playing the event or just wait? Either way stinks, less time to complete and get the main prize!:(

I am level 89. And yes, I have restarted, complete shut down, uninstall and reinstalled the game. Nothing works thus far.

Anybody else having issues?

[Dirtidawgidvas]

Still not triggering boss. Robbed fought and did levels but nothing. On iOS

[ajd]

Not triggering. iPhone 4

[is1j]

Not triggering for me other on iPhone 4 or ASus tablet. Restarted several times and no effect

[Smallestelf]

[MagnusDux]

[Crazzy88s']

Lucky you! I'm envious :p

[djesus]

i love how all the weapons lists are blank, not surprised at all

[Rebels]

iOS not triggering for me.

Wonder if Gree will give us some free gold like they did to android users a while back??

[brandocommando]

iOS not triggering for me.

Wonder if Gree will give us some free gold like they did to android users a while back??

and then you woke up :rolleyes:

[MuMiX]

still no boss being triggered on iPhone 4S. Is 3.7.1 20130828_9 371.0 the latest update?

[Rebels]

and then you woke up :rolleyes:

Not quite I am still in the nightmare :)

[Christurbo]

Event has triggered for me but stats are not increasing when items are added to my inventory. Will keep an eye on it but would be interested to know if anyone else is having this issue?


Edit:- logged out and back in and stats have increased.

[mysteryliner]

iPhone 4, latest upgrade.Timer works, but boss not triggering!Also: I have build the new LTQ building, but after the upgrade, the building is gone, and so is my money!!!

[VikesUK]

It used to be wrong when people would say that you needed to be Level 10 to participate in Epic Bosses (my account started at Level 6 last cycle with The Black Rose).

However, I have a new crawler/camper at Level 3. This time I ,do not have the Boss in my goals list. Do you think the update has just not come through, or has the level requirement been imposed this time round?

[Takri]

The Boss won't procc for me either on Android or Iphone 4, tried anything ... also upgraded to 3.8 ...

Minimum level for triggering a boss is 5.

[JonHanFord]

arrrrgghhh ! i accidentally tap Buy First Aid Pack.. im only free player and 10GOLD is a big resources to me.. is there any chance to get back it to me ?? :(

[splinker]

Captain Obvious is suggesting you to send a ticket to GREE.

[VikesUK]

Minimum level for triggering a boss is 5.

Thanks for that - I did indeed get it in goals list at Level 5 and they are now triggering every (deliberately) failed attack/rob I do

[noamlin]

arrrrgghhh ! i accidentally tap Buy First Aid Pack.. im only free player and 10GOLD is a big resources to me.. is there any chance to get back it to me ?? :(
happened to me also.
so i have sent a ticket a while ago, asking to add this confirmation dialog before spending gold...
i got my gold back, but this dialog from preventing accidental clicks wasn't added to the game...

[Tommy_K]

pfff

I understand some delays can happen, no problem since a delay is better then bugs/crashes. But do yo guys really hate europeans that much?

the normal start time is allready fairly late and since delays are common with events ppl in the gmt/cest time zone basicly get screwed by starting it past midnight. how about starting events 11 am pst so even with a delay it will still start before instead of just after a normal time to start sleeping here.

[marcw]

I've been logging in and out of the game all morning trying to get the splash screen and have been robbing people and attacking people desperately trying to trigger the boss event but nothing

[CHarnel]

Can't trigger the event on android and iOS, tried restarting the app / phone & iPad. Have latest dataset. Tried every trigger possible... at that pace, there won't be enough time to complete the event!

[CCK-buttsy]

[The Fonz]

If I'm not mistaken, it should be 3.8.1, 380.0 (that's what I have on mine). You might want to delete, then re-install the game.

[Rodney26]

Can't get it to trigger? I'm confused I finished 2 hours after it started

[marcw]

It's only 6.15am in California where gree are so I thnk we just have to wit a few hours or them to get to work, see he problem and get on with fixing it. I just hope there is enough time to kill boss 50 times without gold as I normally do it without gold with a few hours left so might be screwed this time unless they extend it

[CHarnel]

Succeeded to trigger on both iOS and droid - you gotta rob a lot! Preferably different players and not buildings in the same hood.

[apexii]

Can't get the boss to trigger either. I've had the splash screens but robbing/pvp does not initiate the boss fight.

[marcw]

I think you need to lose. I had no luck all morning but just been on attacking frenzy but I always win until I just hit soneone with higher stats and lost and boss triggered straight away?

[CCK-buttsy]

I think you need to lose. I had no luck all morning but just been on attacking frenzy but I always win until I just hit soneone with higher stats and lost and boss triggered straight away?no, i am attacking people and get it right away, with winning.

[marcw]

no, i am attacking people and get it right away, with winning.

I am too, at least now anyway after the first trigger but it was getting that first one to trigger. I was trying for 6 hours, probably attacking and robbing 200 times. First attack I lose and it triggered!

Coincidence?

[DeT Bob]

nice to see they do it for cc, why not giving informations on mw events?

[Hexum311ad]

nice to see they do it for cc, why not giving informations on mw events?

go to the correct forum and you will see it.

Also, anyone seen any posts taht shows the prizes for the current LTQ?

[CCK-buttsy]

go to the correct forum and you will see it.

Also, anyone seen any posts taht shows the prizes for the current LTQ?yes check BigMoney's thread, its called "The Real Deal LTQ Jobs and rewards list"

[jesseawill]

Good to see some good prizes...

[djesus]

so once again can someone please post the prizes?

[TheOracle]

I apologize for the inconvenient event start times for our friends in Europe. If we could start events earlier, we would, but we often ran into issues when we pushed for releases earlier in the day.




I have added the prizes to the original post. I can also try to start doing this for Modern War going forward.

Players should be able to trigger the boss fights. Make sure you're on the latest version, open the game for 10-15 minutes, and then close it and re-open it if you are still unable to trigger the boss. If you still can't trigger the boss after that then submit a ticket to us and we'll check it out. Our data shows that it should be triggering for all players though.

i've sent in a ticket already, but still my boss wont show any of the prizes i've won or anything, just a blank screen, will there be anything to fix this before the event ends?

[the real f n deal Chris]

Already to level 23...

[TheOracle]

If you go to the next boss level, you definitely received your boss rewards. You should eventually be able to see them after restarting the game enough times once the data is loaded.

[tatersauce]

Great thanks

[djesus]

well i got the update, thing is my stats went down even more again, and i still cant see which rewards are available or what i got.

edit: finally works!

[apexii]

I still cannot get the boss to trigger on my lvl 50 account. I have it listed as a task but nothing I do triggers a fight. I get numerous messages for new data downloaded, I restart to no avail. I've done at least 50 pvp and robs. Oracle, any advise?
