random opponent online challenge glitch = stuck games


(General_Rommel) #1

Hey Splash Damage,

At the exact same time the RIO update went live (great job BTW!), I created a couple random opponent online challenges.

Right after that I did the update, I guess before opponents could join the game (most likely everyone was doing what I was doing, and installing the update). I then started to play the newly updated game.

I noticed though, that these 2 online challenges have yet to accept an opponent. I have since created new games, which have had people join, but these 2 seem to be “stuck”

I’m no programmer, but I’m guessing they are “pre-updated games” waiting for “pre-update opponents”, which will never happen because everyone has updated.

I’d like to get this fixed, as they are taking up 2 slots out of my 20 online game limit.

Good thinking. What you see is indeed cause by a game before the update not being given an opponent after the update. It happened with this update because the matchmaking rules were changed. I can probably remove them for you if you want, but they should also time out after a few days.

So I guess at that point my question is: how much does it annoy you? :slight_smile:

No worries, it looks like they will indeed simply time out. Don’t bother if it means risking anything (like something happening to my account!)

Not annoying at all, I’m,having too much fun playing this game! I usually have the full 20 games going, but everyone is pretty active right now so I don’t feel I’m missing anything - I can barely keep up with my turns as it is right now

The only gripe I have right now is the coin/rad bux pricing for the new toons and spray n pray is way too high - relative to everything else, they’re overpriced.

I’m kicking myself because a couple days before the update I bought a 2nd Ivan just cuz i had the coins to do it. had I known the update was just days away I could have had a tree mendes instead

It’s OK though, I’ll have enough pretty soon at the rate that I’m playing :slight_smile:

Again, not annoying at all, and thanks for the prompt reply! Keep up the good work!
