Map not working...

The map seems to work intermittently and its very very slow.

Connected via work wifi, so net access/speed is not an issue. the map scrolls fine but then after 4 seconds populates the squares, and if you type a name or co-ordinates in locate it never finds the target....

Not just me but other people aswell on the same server...

Yeah and if you use the new link from a scout report it's broken until you reload the game. I can't believe they released this!

Re: Map not working...

There are a couple bugs that are being worked out, be patient and they'll be fixed soon... this was a major update so there's bound to be a couple mistakes

Re: Map not working...

Agreed there are bound to be a few bugs here and there, but this isn't exactly an edge case. I guarantee you almost every player is going to scout something, click the link, attack it, then use the map button from the main screen in the same game session. Maybe it's even an intermittent problem, but still, it's the feeling I get all over this update.

I would probably have given Haypi the benefit of the doubt there is something special about my iPhone/configuration that's causing this... But this map bug coupled with all the display bugs and absolutely horrid (read: unusable) translations, I stand by my previous statement. I can't believe they released this!

Granted some of the new graphics are pretty and there's a new gameplay element that I know took a lot of time and energy to both design and implement. I applaud that. But with all the problems, this update just feels rushed and undertested at best.

They said they had tested out 3.0 on multiple devices over a long course of time (a month?)

So I expect something a LOT better than an unplayable game

Not a couple mistakes, have you seen how many people have problems with support? Too many

Also, I haven't seen anyone who likes this update yet. Everyone else wishes it never came out

Re: Map not working...

The map is horrid -- I get empty fields if I search by a coordinate. Even the colors/contrast are so horrendously lacking contrast and clarity that it makes it a genuine headache to play the game. Unless Haypi wants to pay for me to visit my ophthalmologist, they need to get this fixed as well.

I did get told by exactly one user out of our server to shut up that the map was wonderful -- so there's one voice out there that likes it. That's the only one I know of -- the serious players who know that scouting is a what gives you the edge in the game -- all hate it.

I almost had a seizure from the contrasting colors of the map when I first saw it haha

Agreed, it looks like they went for color, but my eyes hurt now, and everything seems to be "fat" on the map, maybe it's just me

Re: Map not working...

With the previous map you could scout really really fast, i mean a report every 3 seconds taking into consideration the tapping of scout then confirm, if bases were next or close to each other. Now your lucky if the map takes you to the specified location.

In fact the entire games seems slowed down, switching cities, in and out of chat, and once again no mailbox enhancements.....

*sigh* but heck it sure does look pretty....
