ohh traffer got demoted to the italian server i see
So you removed all our frustrated questions and comments, you did nothing to answer any of them, and therefor you do nothing to stop peoples doubts that this game is on is way to self destruct.
You say that you still plan to implement the soccer event with unity, as I think you still mean soccer 2021. The state Unity is in - 2022 would maybe be a wiser choice.
I cant imagine how this is going to happen without scaring the last very faithful patient players away.
In the current version, you have to click 3 - 4 times in each button and chase the window in the process - that will be a total of around 8 clicks per explorer, then wait around 30 secs between sending, that will mean that an average high level player will look at using around 2 hours a day just to sent explorers. In the process they will maybe destroy a few buildings by mistake, if there was any under the explorer windows when they sent those out.
Every 5th or so line in chat people type in the blind. Every around 5 minutes the game do auto refresh. The time between server and player session is out of sync. This means that now and then actions you have done are reset, with the time reset.
You will no longer be able to do blocks on adventures as you also need to wait around 30 sec in between sending gens. Then there is the OOM message that makes you need to close down browser, they happen every ½ hour or so. There is the mail system where you have to scroll down to accept mail. You can no longer accept all mail of a kind, not unless you want to delete all. This is just some of the more annoying problems - the list goes on an on - and we have seen no attempt to fix any of it. We don't get any real answers. Instead all that is too critical just got deleted? - If this goes on I will start asking my questions on Facebook instead.
The test server that was bussing with activity and enthusiasm is now as dead as the normal server. People would keep going and be positive if they just got some info, and if just some of it got fixed along the way. Now we are losing faith that BB is able to and willing to solve any of the problems, so they give up and find other things to do.

Wooops.... :rolleyes:

As far as I can see, in the thread you are referring to, you can see my own answer to one of the player's doubts that referred to most of the questions in that thread. I deleted comments that were not related to the thread and as I said if you want to ask any questions you can do so in the right place.

Again, in the same thread, you are referring to, I answered this question. Once again - the Test Server version is not final and it's natural to experience issues. We are working every day on the Unity Version to fix all the issues.
The test server that was bussing with activity and enthusiasm is now as dead as the normal server. People would keep going and be positive if they just got some info, and if just some of it got fixed along the way. Now we are losing faith that BB is able to and willing to solve any of the problems, so they give up and find other things to do.
Lastly, I also mentioned this in the thread you are referring to. In the last Test Server update, we fixed over 30 bugs/issues on the Unity Test Server, and since then we have fixed even more. We will continue to work on the Unity Version and bring you news once they are ready to publish, but we wont do it daily, as we mention before.

So, no Unity for event, play as are at moment. Good for those of us who can login, killer for those who cannot still.

:D :D :D :D :D :D
yet another release date missed :cool::cool::cool::cool: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
you guys better hope ubisoft never closes down your division, because no one will ever hire any of you, you guys are really incompetent, i never saw anything like this. release date, after release date, after release date… you guys missed them all. but i'll give you one thing though, at least you are pretty consistent :cool:
thanks for comfirming everythinng i've been saying in the forum for the last few months :)
you keep it up like this, in a few weeks time, you'll be playing this by yourselves.
best start buying gem packs too bb devs ;)
you'll need them, because you probably play as bad as you develop games :D :D :D
can't help myself but laugh
same accounts chatting doodie and picking on this poor human, being first line of support in a massive and complex transition.
well done for consistency . embrace the current times and do give yourselves a day off or two .
or better of, switch to Mac
as for the topic of the day, happy days. finally we'll have smtg to do. if all goes well, it'll keep us busy for a while.
seeing that we're not quite there yet, a 5 week event will do just fine for most of us.
what i've seen on test, there were a lot of balls and we could do with some extra time
Is no1 gonna talk about the prices in the football event.. the poor bundles with poor items.. the new building which costs ... 15k balls was it (swan boat)? did everyone just accept the fact that BB thinks we are stupid af and we will accept no matter bundles/items they give us?

where did you see what's in the next event?

What I don't get is people seeing an event as giving them something to do. Breaking that down it involves sending explorers, doing a few basic quests and doing adventures. Seems a bit like stuff they can do without an event.
Given the state of Unity version I think staying on client for the event is a wise decision. Personally a relief for me as Unity would probably make me skip the event.

As I've been playing this for hours a day over the last year without paying a penny for it, I am not going to criticise the developers!
I'm relieved we're sticking with the client for the event.
where did you see what's in the next event?
On the unity test server where the event has been for a week or so
can some1 explain whats Adobe Air Client ? didnt bb promise we will play the summer event on unity?

yeah, saw that old one in there. thought they might've posted newer ones.
strange though, none/not many mentioned the huge bundle prices in forums.
they won't be changed if no feedback is given and it might be too late now
can some1 explain whats Adobe Air Client ? didnt bb promise we will play the summer event on unity?
it's the client many have played the game on so far,
unless you can't run the client, it should not matter if you play the game in unity or old flash. it doesn't to me anyway
it does, as unity runs so badly it would render the game unplayable for most that can run the current client. Probably would be unplayable for most that cant run the current client (mac anyone?) so it is the superior option for this event
before the maintenance i had 2 Rabbit Breeders, now they are gone.....
And have been replaced with something called a Rabbit Retreat.....
No mentioning bout this in the change log, so i asume this is a Bug?
Or do you really want to tell us it was changed cause someone complained breeding wasnt pegi7???
Sorry, but what a joke....
Apparently at the event on the body server, as it used to be.
What do you not mean by that?

Does the name matter to you that much?
Does the name matter to you that much?
Seems it does to BB, as they changed the name....
My point, Next that its a ridiculouse act, is that all changes should be mentioned in the changelog, any change that isnt in the changelog isnt a change but a bug....

They have a long habit of not mentioning changes

Thank you for this report. We're looking into it, the change log was updated.
I have to give you credit @BB_Trafffer for your endless patience with so many children on the forum. Well done.

well... yeah i think its too late that but also lets be real they never changed bundles items even i was complaining.
at this point ppl just accept to pay stupid amount of event currency for any bundle out there, even if good or bad.
I am glad the unity client wasn't released too soon. Doing an event when the menus for dealing with scouts and generals don't work properly would be a nightmare.
I just wish there were more regular updates there, its been open a while now and there has been a single patch for it so far which didn't seem to improve the playing experience.
the name change for rabbits is now announced in change log. I hope that has relieved some of the terrible issues some of u guys were suffering.
rabbit breeders suggests active young bucks. rabbit retreat suggests old fogie rodents. have u checked how long a cycle is now? them old fellas might not be as quick as the younguns :)

I'm quite certain I'm personally responsible for the naming change. I knew if I called it rabbit brothel enough they'd change it. Too bad none of my serious complaints are ever addressed.

Had similar thought yesterday. :) "children" sounds so nice.

HaHa - '...Nail on the head'

yes they did and air client is just a fancy of way of saying that nothing is changing.
I have to give you credit @BB_Trafffer for your endless patience
What about our endless patience? Spending 20-40 mins trying to log in with 'uplay unavailable' error? Some players are taking longer to log in too.
Breaking that down it involves sending explorers, doing a few basic quests and doing adventures. Seems a bit like stuff they can do without an event.
That does not encourage peeps to spend cash ;)
Many players (such as myself) boycott sending out explorers. Many of us have over 100 explorers that have been in lockdown well before any virus hit!
We are awaiting an Auto send function - something that has been in other online games for over 10 years now. I have been told by peeps that write programs, that it consists of a small piece of code, that every developer/ programmer should capable of writing.
So where is our Auto send? Why are we been told it is one of the top requests and still we wait?
It always takes 5 clicks to send out 1 explorer, so that is over 500 clicks to send mine out once!
Guaranteed Carpal tunnel syndrome!
Anyway, what is the point in sending them out when we have no space to place any new buildings?
10+ obs, SP, Training grounds etc all take up space, when a simple 'stack buildings' option or more land would sort it.
With the huge monies that developers are paid (and don't try tell me something different, as I know a few that are on crazy monies) you would think they would do a much better job.
We had 2 years warning about Flash and now 6 months since it finished. 2.5 years and still not sorted, so how can we have any faith in improvements?
I hope BB make a bigger effort to keep their long time players by listening to them, implementing changes, and stop missing deadlines.
I have been told by peeps that write programs, that it consists of a small piece of code, that every developer/ programmer should capable of writing.
theres 2 funny things about it :
- code is very much in place and ready to be reused considering you already have a feature that allows delegating a task to multiple specialists simultaneously - via sending generals to adventure
- I dont know about this language version but on one other one the reasoning that was presented repeatedly is they dont want to allow automating tasks in game, which is ironic because apparently they dont mind the same for generals.
It's official now. Event starting June 21st, more details will follow.
I just realized that you still did not give official start time of the event. I suppose it's 10 am as usual, but would be nice to have official info.
