Heads up - Known bugs in Guild Wars at the moment

Kaz

Hello, everyone!

We have a couple of known bugs in this mode that you should be aware of.
I'll try to keep this up to date to list all the bugs found during this first Guild Wars Battle.

- Hunters sometimes don't kill the walker in front of a Metal Head Walker. Any other class that hits multiple targets works fine.
- Sometimes when you tap to join a battle but the game doesn't give you any feedback that you joined. If it happens, restart your game and you should be fine.
- There are two weird Guilds on the Guild Wars Leaderboard. Team Teapot and Team Elovena. They are guilds that developers created to test a battle in the live game. I don't know why they are called like that though.
- We are experiencing some server problems due to the number of battles. If you feel that your battles are not being updated, restart your game and wait for a while until your game load your guild information correctly (we are currently working to improve that).

A rework of the guild chat so tagging guildmates is possible would help. If they could get a notification when tagged it would be easier to organise gw squads.

Has the start of the guild wars changed? Now the countdown is shown as one hour less?

Posting said starts today on Friday but count down says Saturday. When does it start?

TJS

Season started today. Tomorrow 12:00 UTC is the first battle.

Look in your GW tab

me and some of my guild mates are completing missions but they show up as not completed and also we are not getting points for those missions, only losing gas. also "enemy" (opposing guild) cant be engaged. there was also case when game was saying i myself was already playing one of those missions (which i had already completed but was not recognised as completed). so we wasted keys and gas and got no rewards whatsoever.

Yep, sorry about that!

You are getting the points for completing those again, but it's taking a long time to update your progress. We are currently working on it!

Sorry about it!

also it would be more fair if difficulty didnt start at 22 when having max lvl 15 survivors. but i guess guild wars was designed more to end gamers?

Lot of us stepping on each other playing maps others already played and killing same enemy map multiple times.

It's because of the server issues we are having. It's taking time to load the progress. It helps if you restart the game, but then it takes time to load all your guild information.

We are currently working on it!

i will tell our guild to not join up for next battles until you have fixed servers..

For the metal head walkers, they can not only block the bullets for the walkers behind them, but also for those in the front of them.

This is one of the known issues at the moment. Did you experience that only with a hunter survivor or with an assault too?

abrahamaniac

The game selected my 3rd best hunter (Maggie) and sent her into battle without loading her the best weapon as promised. I can tell because i have 2 higher damage shotguns with wide caliber range and the shotgun she was using did not have that. If she was sent in with what she was holding she had level 25 gear when i have 2 sets of lavel 28 gear.

ADPaq

Probably related to the server performance issues, but my guild and I are seeing "enemy found" and then nothing. Restarting and replaying the mission repeats the "enemy found" message, but doesn't start the enemy fight.

zbot

@ADPaq try restarting the game when that happens.

TJS

@abrahamaniac
How do you know what the game sent in for your defense?

Or you played with Maggie?
Which means you chose her & her weapon. Yes?

ADPaq

@zbot unfortunately restarting didn't work for me. I tried 3 times and moved onto a different set of missions.

Does this happen with your defending team or attacking team?

Did you tried to kill the app and opening it back or just minimizing it? If you did kill the app, could you contact our support team about the issue? Thanks!

@Kaz

In case no one else has mentioned it, I found the same issue with assaults not being able to kill anything in front of the metalheads (as well as behind them).

o-oh

If it happens again, could you take a screenshot of it and send to support? Thanks!

@Kaz I'm stuck on the last walker to kill, I've forced close the game and restart a couple of times but nothing happens

Hey there! I've just reset your mission. Could you let me know if it works now?

Carly

I've only completed 1 battle so far. My guild's leaderboard shows 26 VP, but I have 156

abrahamaniac

@Kaz we have two teams? I was just facing walkers why would i be defending.

Because the random selection of weapons/survivors only happens if your team is actually defending. If it changed your weapon when you were attacking, then it's a very weird bug, haha.

But so far we only got one report. Is it possible that you maybe have changed the equipment for playing another game mode like The Distance or Challenges?

Thanks for the letting me know!

We are currently investigating this issue. It seems it's taking time to update the leaderboard. But we are still looking into it.
Thanks for the feedback!

Thank you @Kaz everything working

abrahamaniac

@Kaz so it's possible that last night my last mission before Guild Wars was a farming mission for XP and that's what was picked up? If so, i'll fix that now - use my regular best squad fully armed and report back. Funny tho - that would not explain the narrow caliber shotgun the game chose for Maggie. I never ever use shotguns without at least silver wide caliber....

Maybe... seems that's it. Try to check your equipment before going to a Guild Wars mission and let me know how it went afterward!

Thanks!

@abrahamaniac I'm confused as you said the game selected your 3rd worst hunter. Didn't you select your team before starting a mission?
