They have. Like you say it’s a huge problem with trying to use lower tier ships with reserves, but mf/400com really makes this notable. If a fix can be made please make it for all tiers (ie if a hero has a full fleet assigned, don’t check max potential.)

I just checked my tavern to see how long to next refresh counter and saw it was at 3x, with 6-9 mins to go til the next one. Not even 5 minutes later I check the same tavern and now it is at 2x with 2 min til next refresh. I know without doubt this is what I saw, I was in the same tavern and all variables accounted for. I know it because I am 1604 to a purple hero and would have refreshed on the 3x if not for wanting to make the number an even 1600, the whole reason for me checking the counter again, also it my home planet both times. Since all my taverns were refreshed at the same time they all were hit by this drop in my refresh. Is this a common issue?

Lag is so bad that that is hard to play much. Fix the lag. I don’t like to wait physically being there. I haven’t complain the long build or research time, but lagging making me wait, I will complain.

Atm I am using FF & its still the game’s fault, not the browser kind. I played this game a few months now, both work fine for me.

still better…..ff for me is more reliable using for lengthy times, and ie is better for short term mostly, it disconnects a lot. it’s probably limitations with flash, but the game would work better by fitting in those restrictions….

Enough with this speculations. Base on months of playing experience, something is up with the game.

We just finished 7th on Alston but I didn’t get the 300 coupons. At least I didn’t get the mail…I’m not 100% sure that I didn’t get the coupons, but I don’t think so.

Update January 31, 2012

Galaxies now only need to deal 1M damage by the time the Pillar is defeated to earn the Galaxy placement coupons.

Please Read before jumping into conclusion.

I’m from G42, Space Crust, and we got fifth on the pillar rex with 7m damage. However, we don’t seem to have received coupons, or at the very least no mail was sent to inform us that coupons were received. If you could check and recompense us if indeed there was a bug we would greatly appreciate it.

Are you talking about today on Rex? If so. We(G40) switches Pillar(Rex) onto Alston. So it may seem as if Rex was falling today, which it was not. It was a free Claim by G2, Once we Vacant Rex. Hope that explain your post.

Thanks Neo, that indeed does explain it. I for one didn’t notice the switch and thus queried the lack of coupons/mail. Issue closed.

Thanks for all the reports and those who helped answering them.

We will try to fix this with the next update.

Nothing changed recently would cause lag, but this could be caused by temporary issues with the internet itself (routing between you and our servers). Have you changed where or how you connect to the interent recently, and is this still happening?

Lag is usually more due to the flash part running slow than due to bad connectivity. If you run multiple flash instances at the same time, try closing the others and refreshing the game.
If this game is the only flash app you are running, than I don’t know what could be causing this. If you haven’t done so already, you should go to settings and turn off the dynamic effects. After that, right click in the game and set the quality to normal. If after that the game is still running slow, it’s not the game itself that is the problem.

I get better results from Safari than FF, but the game has always been slow (using up lots of memory?) for me.

Bug 1: Phantom’s galaxy membership is growing… up to 111 members now.

Supposed to be 100?

Bug 2: The names of the Phantom’s planets compared to the planets image appears to be incorrect. Example: For the 5-planet phantoms, the first planet is called “Rock Planet” when mousing over it, even though the image is not the “Rock Planet” of the regular player.

since yesterday, I have had a VERY hard time opening the galaxy screen.
Planet screens, raids and buildings work fine.
Restarting browser, clearing cache, etc, nothing works.

Fix galaxy name fields in pillar screen & galaxy rank table: can anyone tell what galaxy # is own rex now? (hint: their name is ‘OMFGWTFBBQ LOL’ and they are ranked as #19).

Your cached client library probably expired (or you cleared cache) causing you to refetch them again. We versioned it again today during the patch, so you may notice a delay again but should get better later. Otherwise it might be a general connectivity issue to our server if it persists after you redownload the libraries again.

Looks like galaxy number got cut off, we will try to get this fixed in the next patch. In the meantime, you can bring up the raid team dialog’s choose pillar screen and mouse-over the pillar to get any cut-off galaxy numbers.

you could make it so galaxys have to wait 24 hours before changing names to prevent confusion like that ;)

When i logged on for the first time after the patch, my power was lower. when i went back to ms, my power increased. But when i switched back to pure fighters, my power did not decrease at all while my army dropped from 77m to 62m

When i refreshe, i dropped down to my correct power. Its going to be annoying though to have to refresh every time i switch from fighters to ms in order to reflect my true power
