Mid-Event Bug Fixes

[drewq]

 

This is awesome! I'm glad we are quickly rolling out bug fixes so the event can more smoothly and as intended.

 

But... wait, there's one issue - we have existing scores already on the leaderboard that were achieved through completely different gameplay! This is pure conjecture but I'm confident in the assumption that these scores will be significantly harder to top in a double battles format - just simply more margin for error and more intricate team composition is required. On top of this, in odd numbered Pokemon encounters (3 or 5 to a team) the last Pokemon, being put in a 2v1 situation, will call a second to make the battle a 2v2. So we know without a doubt that you will be using more PP in this format to defeat the same amount of waves. This is unarguably a step-up in difficulty based on longevity alone!

 

I'm frustrated after having fun chasing the leaderboards and developing strategies only to have these invalidated by a bug fix (again, I understand, we want the event to run as intended). I just don't feasibly see how the existing scores (perhaps just the high score) will be topped with these changes. My best suggestion is to reset the leaderboards (which has its own drawbacks, of course people won't be thrilled with that), or just to double down and revert the fix, as unfortunate as that would be. Changing mechanics in a leaderboard based event just really throws a wrench in the equation. @Rache

Didn't the developers play the game? A lot of the guides we wrote were in vain!

This is a huge advantage for those who ranked before the "fix".. while all of us need extra work trying to throw them off. it's kinda unfair imo. 🤔

Rache: A bug has fixed. Now the players who is not in the rank list before the "fix" is not allowed in rank list any more.

 

I have been ranked. I dont worry about being out of rank thanks to the "fix". But I doubt this can be called "fix".

In fact that, the calculation in event is wrong totally. I used hydreigon and it can outspd sceptile while sceptile spd base is higher than hydreigon. And there are so much unfair situation in the run.

I asked for a vacation to play the event and try to be in the first places and I find this. please fix it

[colorwhitefather]

be honest, they should change back to before or cancel first week rank

I have worked hard for many days. Now I plan to quit MMO. Goodbye and good luck

[NiceRNGbro]

before the update I actually feared some change in the middle of the event, whatever it was. and indeed she came.

 

This is disrespectful to the players, if it was closer to the beginning, ok that's fine, but after 1 week of the event and only 5 days close to the end, it's disrespectful and terrible. thanks for fixing this bug, But I think it was a bad decision to fix it right now, please go back to how it was before.

In fact, they do that. Resetted the entire leaderboard. I only don't think that are fair leave new leaderboard active for 6 days only. They should extend event in one day at least.

Not a bad end finnaly, there are less and less players complain the event. I think Pokemmo has found a way to deal with these problems.

But I still wish mid-event "fix" dont appear any more.

When the fix needs a fix... also, i assume that if you have any game testers, they are mostly kids or unexperienced, get some real testers, or train your current ones.
