Can't login for the last 2 days, but i logged in (very slowly) during the previous 3 days with the new engine- is it because of increased traffic on the weekend? http://prntscr.com/jn8wxh
When i was able to login, the loading often got stuck at 72%, then Very slowly moved forward to 80%, then up to 90% +/- and often failed, but eventually after multiple tries would log in.
Additionally, here is a list of complaints from my days on the beta engine:
the beta version is inferior in game play to the old version. the following is a list of small but significant differences which make the play difficult to navigate and severely inferior to previous version.
1. it is not now possible to access a target city from the icon and list at the lower left of the screen. for example, if i am sending a raid to a chosen city and decide i want to follow with a siege, i formerly could click on the target from my list at the raid icon in the lower left and be transported to the city on the map where i could then select siege.
2. it is no longer possible to access a target city from the list of actions at the war council. for example, see action described in complaint 1, formerly, i could transport to the city by clicking on the user icon in my war council and choose subsequent or additional actions against this city.
3. i cannot access pantheon from my messages to redeem orich
4. i cannot access pantheon from my list of pantheons in my coalition page to redeem orich
5. i cannot implement boosts to speed the arrival of troops to a destination from the icons at the lower left of my screen- it seems pointless to include the option or even show the boost symbol if it can't be selected. when i move away from the circular icon to attempt to select boost, the list of targets disappears.
6. when i read personal messages from leonidas (which i cannot opt out of), my game freezes, crashes, and must be reloaded. if i choose not to open these messages to avoid the freeze, crash, reload part, i always have unread messages indicated and cannot tell if i have actually received a message from another player.
7. messages which are sent to multiple members in a group message cannot be responded to.
8. messages which are sent to multiple members in a group message no longer show the sender, so it is not possible to know who to reply or respond to if i have comments or questions- and since i can't reply via the message, this makes clarification impossible.
9. i cannot see the coordinates on the map view
10. i cannot fix friends towers
To summarize: nearly all game function is degraded. the efficient manipulation of commands is compromised and I don't have any idea what the supposed upside benefit to this platform change is supposed to be. Even login is random and unreliable.
And yet, when i DO get logged on, the sales package is still the first thing on my screen. HAHAHAHAHa you want me to continue spending real cash on this imaginary game to buy features i can't access or use.
