Looks like we are back up :)

I just tried to get into it and I got the same blue screen as I did before

Firefox crashed for me, (good thing I was praising it in another post :p,) and I got the grey screen problem, but after hitting ok on a bunch of boxes with my name in them, it does seem to be up again.

Lucky boxes seem to sometime not appear in inv, and also disappear after I have seen them there. Not sure what triggers this.

the red box on the mini-map, that seems to tell you what your looking at, is in fact only about half of the size of what you are looking at on the game screen.

Battle controls appearing over map screen when trying to supervise an NPC battle.

@zakal, are you sure it’s not because of the daily task, where you trade two lucky boxes for a key? check the task’s costs and rewards before you click on them.

also I noticed that the search function for the friends/enemies window doesn’t work. Is it implemented yet?

You might be right, someguy. I will try to pay closer attention to numbers of boxes in the future.

nm about the search function not working… i realized its to search through your friends list, and that you have to click add friend to find the friend to add ;-; i feel retarded now

I couldn’t select my lowest backrow stack in battle. I could select it from the little picture things at the top, though. This was for multiple battles with different types of units.

I also have had problems clicking on my units…

my current problem is has to do with scouting: I have the lvl 2 scouting skill, and scouted an opponent’s castle. basically the word “complete” doesn’t fit in the text box, and I’m wondering/hoping if these boxes also tell what level the buildings are. I can’t tell because I can’t see the full text.

We’re reading everything guys, will explain in detail what some problems are soon.

I know this isn’t necessarily a “glitch”, but it is unnerving to find out that your guildmember is “under attack” when an enemy is just scouting them. You might want to make that distinguishable — could save members a couple of hours of walking to help each other.

I just thought I’d mention it in case anyone gets this issue.

(I’m assuming HoG uses SmartFox, it might use something different with the same issue, I suppose.)

There is a bug in SmartFox (multiplayer game engine) / flash player on linux which causes this game not to work for some people. It might also affect people with any operating system set to certain interesting locales (SJIS in particular I think?). It won’t affect anyone else.

There are some workarounds; one a user can try is downgrading to flash player 9. This doesn’t seem to work for everyone, and also flash player 9 is much slower, leakier, and doesn’t work with some newer games of course. :)

The other workaround can be done by the developers and is detailed here. According to that post they’ve been informed, so if they can fix it without breaking the game for other people, no doubt they will. :)

This game doesn’t have too many glitches for a beta game, so I just want to congratulate the developers for their good work.

New bugs:
Shop -> Inventory button doesn’t work. Kingdom -> Inventory one does.
Mail icon highlights but no mail is received. I am expecting mail to be there, so it’s invisible or not sent properly.

FIXED.

Cannot create a guild even though I have the requirements fulfilled. After putting in the guild name and description the ‘create’ button greys out and nothing else happens.

My building list in the townhall has been empty since I build my barracks and/or upgraded it to level 2. See screen: http://i35.tinypic.com/e0hh7b.png

Help!

Ah, and the game doesnt load with Opera 10 (Win). :(

Amusing Glitch: typing a ‘<’ character into the chat breaks the chat completely.

Some current bugs / quirks (still in the game as of 20091108) :

- When you upgrade a skill to level 2, the level 1 skill is still equipped on your heroes.
- When converting from different resource types in the market, you get a pop-up box saying “null” and the resources don’t convert.
- The waiting time in the market (4 hours) does not work. This probably shouldn’t be fixed before the previous issue. :)
- The order of gained resources in the Incident Report in the Info window is incorrect and confusing. It is currently Crystal; Gold; Lumber; Sulfur; Ore. It should be Lumber; Ore; Sulfur; Crystal; Gold.
- The explanatory in either the Arena window is incorrect. It says PvP wounded rate is 90%. It is wrong.
- Typing a < (less than sign) breaks the chat.
- The displayed build time is incorrect if you DON’T have skills that decrease build time. Builds always finish earlier than they say.
- “Increases the probability of half-damage to melee units” should say by melee units (I hope!)
- “Your Rank” button in rank window includes people who partially match your name
- Some hats’ stats don’t work. Some do. Seems random-ish. I’ve had a sulfur adding hat that worked, and another that didn’t. I’ve had a 10 gold, 4 gold, 4 lumber hat that added the gold but not the lumber.
- The “Hover” highlighting of window frames in this game happens even if another window is on top. Try it with the build timer queue and another big window.
- When visiting the Dwarven Vault (perhaps at the same time as someone else), sometimes your hero travels there, but doesn’t attack. There is no “Command” pop-up, no reward, no line in the info window. When this happens you can’t visit it again the same day. I have confirmed this happening with other people.

don’t know if you did this on purpose or not, but I went and attacked an item, and it appeared in my inventory before my hero came back to the castle

It has been loading cartoons for role selection for over half an hour!!!!!!!

I’m currently stuck at login screen that isn’t supposed to even be there.

EDIT: After restarting computer problem seems to be fixed

OK – so the townhall problem vanished after I restarted my browser. Note that closing a tab and reopening it won’t help!
However, after a few hours of play it reappeared. (Restarting helped.)

Opera still won’t load the game.

I just logged in, after yesterday maintenance and I found that all the tasks that I already completed and whose reward I already collected have become again available
I am not complaining about the chance to double the rewards I already got, but I’d prefer not to abuse a glitch, in fairness
