Now i have some time to reflect on the last war !
i was taken up the Garden path by what seems to be a Massive Error in the way we look at opponents in war ..especially their stats.....not just myself but others have noticed
Hit an opponent and Lose...check their stats ....yep mine is correct 6455760 against 123494, easy win !...WRONG...it appears that Gree has not allowed for enough digits to accomadate for Tens of Millions in stats hence you think wait i should have won that so you hit them again ....another loss !
try 1234948 ...no wonder i was loosing so many times.
Gree you need to re-assess this issue to make it fairer for all and not have unwanted extra hits
If we can see all the digits we would be more wiser in hitiing someone with 2 or 3 times our stats
unfair for us low stat guys and beauty for the high stat players win win !

Ratma, thanks for starting a thread devoted to this. I have never mistaken a 10m player for a 1m one (yet) but I know a lot have and it's just not cool of the game to do that to them. The problem popped up months ago and it's way past time they fixed it. If nothing else, they should just make the font smaller.

Rati, I brought this up in this forum a month or two ago, just so no one would go off the deep end when they noticed this. I think at the time I had just hit 10m, sent a note to gree who stated it required an update at some stage.
I am sure the same issue will worsen when someone hits 100m

Happend us a couple of time last war as well. Loosing against a 1.2M player when it in fact was 12M. I also tried to hit more just to end up loosing again.

I couldn't agree more.. It is very frustrating. Maybe a smaller font or a comma? :)

Gree, meet your friend: the comma
Submitted a ticket for this last week. No response. No change.

Was bitten by this problem with unexpected losses also. Another hidden feature of the game, I guess. Hello? Gree? There is an easy fix to this available. They call it smaller fonts and/or commas.

It's called, bad game design :).
It's not that easy to solve it as you need to:
- Or enlarge every field (including windows) where such numbers can appear. This implicitly has a possible big effect on how your game looks
- Adjust fonts automatically based on the characters but that will look very strange and unprofessional.
To be short... it's just very bad game design, but explainable as GREE just reuses bluntly the same game architecture for all their games till now.
A fix should have been pushed fast imho, but yeah... it's gree... we know them by know...
Agree this needs to be adjusted!!!
But in the meantime.... Check the units if u loose the attack. The second loss is easily avoidable.

the font resizing already takes place in the game; back when i first started thinking honor points were soon to be useless i stopped using them & then worried that after 100K the number wouldnt fit in the box. yet when i went over 100K the font got smaller & it fit - just apply that to all other fields

HAHAHAHAHA, only in KA would there be a thread where people are complaining about font size. Seriously, the worst loss ever recorded has to be < 3mil...if you are "5mil" less, keep losing and keep attacking, you are as special as the Gree developers.

We had several of these "errors" in the last war. Do something about it Gree.

Yeah Gree, do something about it or we will KEEP spending our money!

I have to agree that Gree developers have know of this flaw for many months.

We were amazed how many times our GG was hit over and over... I think the record was 28 def wins in one battle.
Thanks for the thread, Ratma.
Next war look for GG's with "2M" def! lol, and the next war: 3M

I'd say it's fairly easy to see how this was not included in the original programming. i was recently looking at some stats from about a year ago. At the time I was buying up Dragons to push my stats to 60k attack - a respectable score back then. Now you can easily get that from one unit on a free scratch card.
Inflation, eh. Gotta love it!
Having said that, it's been obvious more many months that lots of people would be passing 10 mil, so not much excuse not to anticipate it.
Also sent a ticket in about this got the automated message of "thank you for bringing this to our attention and we will pass it onto developers"
...that was 3 wars ago

Could just divide all stats by 1k, including new reward units. New players would basically start at 1k compared to current players, but that is low enough it would not make any difference. Also round up any that are below that, which again is only minimal numbers. No additional programming required, just SQL script to make change globally.
