Looks like it's now taking me 1 minute and 15 seconds to gain 3 energy, as opposed to (I think) 53 seconds being a Goodfella. Not sure if this issue was here pre-update or not.

Anyone else noticing this? I'm on iOS 7.0.3, iPad 4.

Yes, it's definitely over 1 minute for me. Not sure of the exact time I'm getting.

Hope its not among the under the hood improvement ^^ and just a glitch or unforseen bug due to new code.
EDIT: everything seem to run smoothly for me, but other peeps in my Syndicate have an extra delay of 20 seconds.

somewhere in the gree office, someone must be saying, "DAMNIT they caught us red handed! damn we thought nobody would notice. awwww @#^%@^#@ customers, why do you have to count timers? why can't you just go playing events without noticing our shady stuff? DAMN YOU!"

it takes 1:05 as goodfella for 3 energy. up from 53 sec....

Same here. I bought the Goodfella upgrade and the timer clearly displays 1:05 when I renew energy points.

Dammit iPhone and your auto updating. I thought I did good to avoid 3.9 but I see that I was wrong.

We're losing 19% of our energy during an LTQ. Nice.

My mini account without the Goodfella upgrade is still regenerating at 60 seconds. That's on Android. v3.8.2.2

I updated iOS and CC and my energy regen also went from :53 to 1:05. Goodfella class.

i'm getting myself mentally prepared for a support response of, "It is just a visual bug. The actual time it takes to regenerate is still correct."

I hope they don't pull that. I know exactly what energy I'm supposed to have after x hours and when I woke up this morning I thought it was odd that I wasn't full yet. It wasn't until I saw this thread that I connected the dots.

Im a free player and decided i would spend a little gold to get to the end of the normal mode of this LTQ because of the good att/exp ratio and i am now getting fked by this too.. 1:05 for me on ios

A separate issue that has come along for the ride with 3.9... It is now only possible to read the first 20 or so characters of a wall message

A picture of a lot of gold spenders getting hosed.

I have the Goodfella class and have noticed the same thing on my iPhone. In regards to the 20 or so characters, I have seen this as well and the writing even overlaps the REPLY button!

I used to think that minor issues within the games was ok but over the last several months, the amount of issues being coded into the games (MW & CC) as well as infrastructure issues are really starting to get bad! This last WD in MW & CC is a prime example of just how much choas is being causes by GREE Internally.

...maybe Gree increased so to add Goodfella class 2, to make you spend again to get back what you had in the first spending... :p

Hello, yes we know it's a problem and are working on a fix.

So, are we getting extra energy as a compensation? :p

Emperor886
10-30-2013, 12:18 PM
Easiest form of compensation is probably to extend the LTQ by, say, 12 hours?

Doubt they'd give out energy, because if we miss out on x amount of energy, and Player A has a total max energy of (x - 100) then that person loses out on energy...they won't give out gold equivalent to the purchasable amount of energy lost because that would lose them money (despite being the option that is right for the customer).

Yeah, because the obvious way to compensate half the players who are falling behind is to give everyone an extra 12 hours...

You're always complaining...how about you make a suggestion for once and be useful?

Dipstik
10-30-2013, 03:48 PM
I did. My suggestion is that they do nothing. Didn't you see that thread?

Forget it, I'd rather you not suggest ideas then...because it sounds like GREE has been listening to you.

Sorry, have you trolled me somehow in this thread? Must be pretty talented since I haven't even taken a side in this discussion (nor plan to, for that matter).

Dipstik

I'm talking with you right now, aren't i? If you're confused about how you got involved, it's not my fault.

Better than them doing nothing. And I would request the same as Guisseppe, that you quit being a moron on the forums, but everyone has their vice, and apparently trolling is yours.

Quijimo
10-30-2013, 09:10 PM
They are working on it. Sweet. How long I wonder. One has to assume if it happened through an update we will have to wait for another update to fix it. And who is chomping at the bit to do that knowing there may be some other snafu that comes with that.

Guisseppe17
10-31-2013, 12:09 AM
Getting back on point, I was watching my energy counter and noticed that after my time counted down I hadn't received any energy, so I started to pay more attention...a few times I caught it apparently bending the time space continuum as it went from 15 seconds to 7 in about a 20 second time period...others no energy was rewarded once the timer ran out...there's a lot of bugs with it, and none of em good.

I thought I was lucky and I didn't have this bug at first... Now I just saw that the timer passed 0 and I didn't get any energy at all, when I really need it to finish the normal levels on the LTQ. I have no idea how long time I had that problem. I don't have the problem with the timer tho, it's 53 sec/3 energy (when I get energy lol) just like before. Android with CC 3.8.2.2I know Gree are aware of the problem, but what should I do? Will I have to use gold to finish and get the 13k atk explosive, that others get for free very easy? I don't believe we can count on a compensation from Gree at this point.

It'd be really great if they'd fix it. We've lost out on 20% of our energy for half of the greatest LTQ to date and we're starting another LTQ tonight.

It's not cool.

So what about the fact that some people like myself are very close to finishing the goal but cant because of this.

Im at 15/15 with 16/17 hits on the last goal. Im short by 5 mins worth of energy....

Timmaaay
10-31-2013, 03:24 PM
I assumed it would eventually be fixed but not in time for the end of the LTQ (which finished 23 minutes ago. Just a real annoyance to go along with the raid boss fiasco going on right now...

Any chance the timer issue is ever going to be fixed? This is the second LTQ that I've had between 1:05 and 1:10 regen times instead of my normal :53 for good guy. GREE mods?

Technically, the post you're referring to does not answer his question. CJ just said that the fix has to go out in a client update. He hasn't actually said whether or not they've actually submitted the update to Apple to go through their cert process, or if they're still developing the fix.

That being said, I would like to pose the same question; CJ, when is this going to be fixed? And, more importantly, is Gree planning on giving some kind of compensation (or at least an apology to the players for the fuxup)?

Good catch. I stand corrected.
