Thread: Reports tab not flashing when under attack

  1. #1

    Default Reports tab not flashing when under attack

    I capped a city today, and it was attacked 3 minutes later. Loyalty was raised, however it was capped at the time of the hit.

    The wave was a lvl 10 npc farming wave, which the owner admitted was sent out by his bot.

    So here's my question. My reports tab never flashed telling me he was attacking. I had no knowledge of it at all until it was too late. Even more so, despite raising loy, the city was still capped.

    Do you think that this is a glitch in the game? Or is it a part of normal gameplay that the city was capped with no warning, despite having more than 1 loyalty.

    I have had times where my bird stopped when under attack, but it was at a time when if they attack landed it wouldn't work, like say if the attacker and I were in the same allaince. Once I lef the birdie would start all over again. I don't know if you are having a similer problem but i have never had the more then 1 loy problem.

    It's a glitch that's been around .... well a really long time.

    Since the attack was sent prior to your ownership of the city (happens with flats or valleys too, usually when porting), then the system doesn't trigger an attack at you
    I don't believe in thinking before I speak
    I prefer to be just as surprised as everyone else by what I say

    I got one of the generic mails saying that Evony staff is not responsible for explaining.. blah blah blah. It is not a bug or a glitch, and Evony staff is not responsible.

    Sent the same mail from my bro's account, and they sent him the same response word for word. I would be surprised if they even read the whole thing, before they C&P a reponse.

    So since we've established that more people than just me think its a glitch, does anyone OBJECT to it being a glitch?

    You only get an attack warning if the attack is sent after you control the city. If you're actively attacking a city at the same time as someone else, all kinds of chaos can ensue.

    #1, Dawn, is this done on purpose by evony? IE intended to be part of the gameplay?

    #2, That shouldn't make a difference with the city being capped, should it?

    EDIT:

    Also note that I was capping an npc, and this guys bot made a farming run at it. That's how it was attacked. Not by a physical person.

    I've had this happen heaps of times when porting around. No attack warning and then a plunder report shows up. It's kind of annoying but they're always farming waves so meh ...
    Still if the city was capped from you after loyalty was raised then there is a serious problem. Can't say that it has ever happened to me under the same circumstances so it would have to be a bug

    After providing them with full details, I got a mail saying that the issue had been submitted to the technical department. I assume this means that they realize there may be an issue. Whether or not it gets fixed, I have no idea. I assume they wouldn't forward it if they weren't going to make an attempt?
