That event notice seems rather peculiar. It appeals mostly to those 11 strongest players and those which might possibly become so in the short time until the event starts, which is a very, very small fraction of the playerbase. Other than that, we are not told anything about what the event will be about, or why we should be excited about it.
Fair point! I think we take these events for granted, as they've been of same structure for over a year now. Do you think an image (or a GIF) you can scale and is visible as small image on that popup, of the event, would help already?
As far as rewards go, there are fixed rewards anyone can reach easily, and also badges for permanent BC production MX. These MXes will be slightly higher based on ranks, but with a minimal difference in this event.
The extra TOP 11 rewards will give the top players the chance to name the next event's units and resources after them, or whatever they choose! So that's a more "cosmetic" reward, but players enjoyed it very much last time we did this, as adds a bit more personality and funny vibe to the next event :)

i have another bug report. i cant return to boot camp, auto clicker sound is playing, but not doing anything, and i have power points, privatization menu, and the automation tab in war zone. help? i will reset to see if it works again.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
i like how the warzone qol is but why isn't it the same thing in bootcamp? i'd like for an option in bootcamp for most worth your power points.

Please make the Convert button on the main screen look different depending on whether it has been used that day or not.

I would also like for the privatization screen to show "time to next privatization point", similar to what the deploy screen does. That shouldn't be very difficult, since privatization points are just powers of 10, right?

Could you add the preview number from deploying (by how many percent you improve if you deploy right now) to the main screen, near the deploy button? It would be nice to be able to check that number at a glance, without having to visit a separate screen.

The trainers & investors building doesn't stop blinking if you use the buy all button on the right side of the screen to buy the last trainer. This is repeatedly noticeable after a privatization when you deploy a lot.
Cookies itself are not the issue here, it seems like an issue with randomly lost sessions as we use non-ideal old tech for handling that, which when it happens seems to log you off and "put a guest account" over yours, resetting the settings. It's a known Kongregate-specific bug, and one on top of our lists, that we looked at several times before, and will continue to try to get to the bottom of it

The sorting in Army Upgrades switches back to "Best Ratio" every time I change my buy quantity, which is not helpful when I want to compare buying different amounts of the same thing.
Also, it's really weird that the setting display says "Default" when "Best Ratio" is on and vice versa. Usually buttons like that display the currently active setting. Consider changing that, or if you won't, make the button say "Switch to Default" or "Switch to Best Ratio". There's plenty of room for that.

ok so I started playing for ten minutes and earned some gold. I went to war zone and my gold was reset after I completed a quest. I left and came back to find all my progress lost. I know not everyone experiences this but I wanted to leave a comment to let other people know.

this game is great, but not a 5 star. BUT I started pressing buttons, figuring things out, and LO AND BEHOLD! A JOKE! and this joke was hidden in the place only those who play for a while can find :) it was... and OCD UPGRADE BUTTON! it's a button, a joke, and the cure to my confounded condition! brilliant! 5 stars!!
Just writing solution from user here if anyone else gets a similar issue - try turning AdBlock off if you have it, as it might block 3rd party cookies which our outdated auth system unfortunately has to use

It would be nice if the autoclicker in war zone started cooling down once it's been turned off for like 10 seconds or something, instead of sitting at a nearly maxed out bar forever.
Noted down. We'll have to look into some other AC issues anyway, that might require some code rewrites there, and can see if we can add something like this in as well

future update idea: add a research option that automatically changes the support attacks to the correct thing like land air and water
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
It would be nice if the privatization screen told you how close you are to your next privatization point, perhaps with a time estimate like the deploy screen does.
I don't have a good answer why we don't have that except that it's somewhere on our to-add list and we never had much request for it. That said, if you'd like I can reset for you manually, just drop a PM

i got another glitch. in war zone, sometimes the units stop changing, and i get like tanks in the air. then when i refresh, it turns into a jeep with hp of 4324&543 and unit name of dasdasd. this is second time. last time, a reported a bug. this time, i am here.
Thanks for the report! We've got this one, and other one you reported noted down - this one might be related to some issues we've been looking into a while, and AC one is on top of our bugfix check priorities as well.
Did you try refreshing a couple of times? If so and the issue persists, could you please open developer console (f12), reload the game and in the "console" tab see if any red text/errors pop up, and send me that in a PM or to info@warclicks.com
Would be much appreciated!

1st May 6:00 GMT - We are experiencing some server issues right now so the game might not be loading. We're already investigating. Apologies for the inconvenience!
Thanks for this report - managed to find the issue - the button didn't disable properly and allowed you to try and buy last upgrade when you weren't able to. If you switched zones after you should be able to open it again - but I just push a fix so it should catch that case properly

"Which mission did you have a problem with exactly?" The onboarding missions, starting from the first one. No matter how many more I bought (and I had +100), it didn't count as the 10 I needed. "There's one or two case of "auto tutorials" in BC where if you passed a certain requirement the previous one is unneeded anymore." Both BC and WZ had tutorial screens flash on the screen and disappear as I tried to read them. Definitely not good gameplay experience. "Hmm multiple BGM, on Chrome I presume" Firefox. Additionally, I got the "You're using an auto-clicker!" warning/punishment, even though I was only clicking manually, while using the IN-GAME autoclicker (turret thing). Ridiculous. "Or did you feel like a key info was missing for you suddenly?" Yes, if I'm in the middle of reading it, don't hit the close button for me. This was a bad first impression, and I don't think I'm the target audience anyway (way too much pay-to-win), so I guess I'm out. I wish you luck with your endeavors.
Thanks! I actually just pushed an update to hopefully fix the BGM issue, and also changed some requirement for the missions, as their conditions are dynamic based on your current, but it indeed causes weird experience in some cases.
Even if you are moving on, Thanks for the feedback - all the best :)
* Also just done some improvements to tutorials as well as making revert progress note a bit clearer it's often likely not "user fault" if it happens.
Which mission did you have a problem with exactly?
There's one or two case of "auto tutorials" in BC where if you passed a certain requirement the previous one is unneeded anymore. Or did you feel like a key info was missing for you suddenly?
Hmm multiple BGM, on Chrome I presume - will try to have another look at this one.
Did you try refresh the game and see if it worked after?
If you're still getting this issue, could you please open developer console (F12) then refresh the game, and send us the logs in the "console" tab, to PM or info@warclicks.com

i had a sort of glitch that almost gave me a heart attack! so i loaded the page and it reset all of my progress and gave me the beginner tutorials. i reloaded the page a few times and i got my progress back lol.
Uff yes that one feels scary if you get it. It's typically just a matter of session expiring mid game in some weird cases and next update thus loads a fresh user account. A refresh or two should always load back your proper account connected to Kong for sure.
Sorry for scaring you - unfortunately it's an issue tied to our old code relying on cookies as authenthicaton

Hey everyone! In case you missed this in our announcement - Just wanted to let you know that each of the 40 days during these "quarantine boosts" you can find an EXTRA daily code within the gold shop! It's in the "buy gold section" on the right. Each of the codes lasts only on the day it's shown so make sure to not miss it out - there's a ton of free stuff!
There are some known bugs with it, we'll try to have another look at that in April. Does it tend to "break" when you go to off-focus, i.e. other browser tab and come back?

It would be cool to see an average power per second for units in boot camp, basically their production per cycle divided by how long each cycle takes. Also, why desert warfare? You're making us fight in sand!
We've got that one down as one of our top QoL features already. We're deciding on our April plan this&next week, and we'll likely decide that we can devote more time for updates in April, when we can get through many of them, hopefully this one too :)
As for the desert, I'm afraid mainly down to the assets we worked with on the graphics were prepared for desert. But... the biggest tank battles were/are in desert areas, so there's that as well!

If anyone's been recently getting "3rd party cookie" issue on game load recently due to the new Chrome update, we just fixed this issue and it should work fro you now :)
* Allowing 3rd party cookies is still necessary unfortunately as our game authentication requires them.

I never play clicker/idle games cause I've always felt they were scams and boring but I found this one and decided to play it casually (e.g. visit it once in a while to collect stuff and watch my army grow). The dev actually cares, the game is well balanced (not too p2w), and there's lots of features. Really good for casual fun 5/5
