Check your WD Prize Boosts - Someone screwed up again.

**Tony Centers** · 07-01-2013, 02:15 PM

I can confirm they aren't working properly, but I can't confirm how they aren't working (if that made any sense). If I remove the boosts for those units from my spreadsheet, I don't match the number that shows in my profile.

As a reference point, prior to prizes being awarded, I could match both the attack and defense showing up in my profile to within about 2 or three points (not percentage points ... actual points).

As another reference point, I am in a similar Top 10 faction to Thief.

Thief,

Check my post on the bottom first past of this thread, I listed the ones for Top 400 on down, and they are all incorrectly listed in the bonus display section on the player profile.

**vorm** · 07-01-2013, 02:23 PM

I only took shots of top 75 and below sorry as we were not going to finish higher than that.

**gero** · 07-01-2013, 02:25 PM

Let me see if I have any others.

Props Tony! That is killer to keep up with. I did it before factions all the time because it was easy to keep up with...but now days i can't find the time...

Thank you. I thought those were the ones but i wasn't 100% sure so i didn't want to mislead anyone.

It is the four listed above

**Thief** · 07-01-2013, 02:37 PM

Okay So my Thoery is:

-2 (-2 Dollars? upgrade cost...that one is horrible)
+3 Air A (Every Unit gets +3 attack. IE a stealth Bomber gets 53 Attack before adding in boosts)
+5 Sea D (Every sea Unit gets +5 sea defense)
+15 Building D (Every Defensive Structure gets +15 D)

The boost modifiers are actually a good thing for "Weaker" Players but i believe they are being miscalculated.

Breakeven points are hard to say because it will depend on your other modifiers.
However Defenseive buildings it probably helped majority of all players

Now if you take Sea for example: If your Average Sea unit has a Defense of 100 D then getting +5 or 5% is the same right? Well no... +5 is actually better because you will get 105 and then it will be multiplied by your def bonuses:

So for example Before the War i had 65% Sea Defense. This would have given me 70 Sea Defense.
If i have 500 Sea units with an average of 100 Def with 70% more defense that is 85,000 Defense from my Sea.
However with the new bonus i have 500 Sea units with an average of 100 def with 65% more defense gives me 86,625.

Bascially i expect powerful players to get more powerful when the fix is implemented and "Weaker" players to drop down. What that cutoff is really depends on what your army looks like and what percentage is Air/Sea.... I'm going to guess though that those under 250k-300k will see a drop in stats when its fixed.

and yes, in 2 weeks, when you get the automated, no one looked at it reply, you will still be having the same problem.

For instance, the Infiltrator Frigate says +5 Sea Defense not +5% Sea Defense. And in my profile page, I see 2 lines for sea defense now. One says 45% and the other says +5.

Same story on the other units as well. Good one Gree.

And before some mod comes on here and asks if I've submitted a ticket, the answer is "YES!"

It's ticket #706739.

That a good theory and makes sense, but still feel like we got swindled on the boost, from the pics all of them say % except the top 75 unit that says +10 More ground.

**hard2misss** · 07-01-2013, 04:49 PM

Would a representative from Gree please reply!!!
Some people spent real money to get these boosts and would like to know your response.

Ohh no they still need to be fixed just trying to figure out why it's not raising red flags for most people. The boosts are working...just not as advertised.

Right, everybody that got one of these "miscalculated" units, got a boost to their stats. Just not increased as advertised... so to speak..

This is an interesting mix up.. And even more odd that no admin has even posted confirming the oddity and posted thatthe programmers are "looking" into it..

**Tardavic** · 07-01-2013, 06:49 PM

Hello,

We have acknowledged everyone's concerns and we thank you for reporting this to us.

The boosts for the rewards from the Poland event are currently not working as advertised, but this will be fixed in tomorrow's data deploy.

We apologize for the inconvenience.

Regards,

Tardavic

**Miner** · 07-01-2013, 07:18 PM

Yeah! Why again does it US finding YOUR errors all the time?!

**marklinalexanderho** · 07-01-2013, 07:41 PM

hi guys tks for d post yes i got prizes from Wojska Howitzer & below.

i calculated d raw attack gain i would get & it amounted to 8,800. but i actually received a boost of close to 14k? not sure how it works but i'm thankful for that =)

btw is d +5 sea defense = to all ur sea units in battle receiving a +5 to their stats? or perhaps a +5 to ur overall defense in ur skill tab(d one dat plays w/ random factor etc)?
