Hey, everyone! Steve from RedLynx here. Today we'll be rolling out an update for iOS and Android devices. This update process has started, and you'll be able to download it soon. The update will include improved performance and optimization for iPhone X devices, bug fixes, and some general changes to the game. Below, you can find the juiciest details!
iPhone X Support
The iPhone X was recently launched, and our support for it was a bit lacking. While you could play the game on the device, it wasn't an ideal experience. Now, we have full support for iPhone X devices! This means we now have:
- Full screen support
- UI Fixes
- Battlefield field of view changes
- Fixed for boss triggering on PvE levels
- Adjustments to the display of PvE content to more closely fit the iPhone X's screen
Card Donation Changes
After rolling out the teams feature, it seems a lot of people are enjoying the social aspect of having their own team, a place to chat with them, and the ability to request and donate cards. One issue we've seen, however, is that some players would take all the XP and coins from their teammates by donating all of the cards requested. In order to help spread the XP and Coins across teammates, there will now be limits on how many cards can be donated per request. This will also stop potential abuse of the feature. The donation limits are:
- 1 Rare per request
- 3 Commons per request
Bug Fixes
There were well over one hundred bug fixes done for this update, but some of the more prominent ones can be found below:
- Butters' House has been resized to be consistent with the size of other houses
- Princess Kenny's power duration did not appear to be increasing when the card was upgraded - this has been fixed
- Crashes when saving a card or avatar via the sharing option have been fixed
- A crash when on the "upgrade these cards" screen has been fixed
- A matchmaking issue where players would get stuck in the wrong region has been fixed
- Tons of other various fixes and improvements
I hope everyone enjoys the new update! We will be looking at player feedback closely, as well as conducting workshops with prominent members of our player community in the coming days and weeks. This will help us to make improvements and changes that all of you are looking forward to. If you have questions, comments, or feedback, feel free to drop them in the comments below, or reach out to us on Facebook, Twitter, Reddit, or Discord! Until next time, I'll see you on the streets of South Park!
Love,
Steve 🚀
Really crappy move on the donation part that messes things up and pisses people off.
Trying to cash in with players is one thing, but when saying you are doing it because some players are taking all the money/xp feels more like an insult.
Same thing with the ad removal of lockers before launch for "better player experience".
If you really need to do these changes nobody asked for or complained about at least be honest and say you are doing it to see if you can get more money...
To be honest, the donation is fine and it does not need fixes and I am pretty sure that most player will see that this is intentionally made for the purpose of you guys making more money which will anger the fans. Plus the card donation already have 8 hours cooldown already so i don't think the issue that you are addressing makes any sense. Please reconsider pulling the donation fixes back, it is fine the way it is. Thank you.
iPhone X implementation is problematic. It makes ranked PVP unplayable. Dragging cards near the "home bar" closes (or begins closing) the app instead of playing cards. Precision is necessary at high ranks of PVP, and this 1 or 2 moment pause has cost several game loses.
I realize this is partly because of an iPhone X hardware/software issue, but you need to find a way to fix it if you want the game to be fun and playable on the iPhone X. Currently it is not; the experience is frustrating on iPhone X.
All that said, I love the game and appreciate your teams continued improvements.
