You're right, it's a copy & paste from 2021 Sorcerer's Homecoming [facepalm]lol I'm thinking that the quests were copy/pasted from outdated formats as well, look at 6A:
Solve 4 Province Encounters and / or Solve 4 Tournament Encounters
And there's the issue that @TomatoeHu raised.
The release won't happen today for sure. A release tomorrow can't be confirmed by me today.
Signing in through the browser and then the app does not fix this issue. It will give the event quests but you cannot open the event window on IOS.No extra days. As the disclaimer states, the update to 1.166 is the requirement to play the game on mobile (should read "1.166.1 (...) zz 1.167" instead of "1.165.2 (...) zz 1.167). At best, the required mobile version gets released before the event start, but that's one reason why we include a disclaimer in the announcement, since we can't guarantee on Beta that the live release of the necessary version will happen in time.
The other reason is that the app platforms roll out updates in a staged way, so some players will always have a new update available before others have it.
Like Verde suggested, after playing on Beta in the Browser the event seems to work for the account in the mobile app, too.
I can't say if this is a reliable and bug-free workaround, so for now, I would suggest to play the event on Browser only if possible to prevent any issues caused by the different versions between the platforms.
... my memory isn't always amazing, but wasn't this a 'hidden' workaround for quite a long time, before it was officially adopted...?haven't tried myself, but my buddy said moonstone production was accepted, so sentients would work. That is T4 (?).
Yes, it works because task requires to collect 3 hour productions from standard manufactories even if quest says "marble mosaics, precious rings or wooden figurines", and the same is for 9h productions.... my memory isn't always amazing, but wasn't this a 'hidden' workaround for quite a long time, before it was officially adopted...?
Maybe at least some of the code of the Event, as well as the text fields, has been copy/pasted?
Lol well, that will make lists really easy then, won't it? I can rename my old file.You're right, it's a copy & paste from 2021 Sorcerer's Homecoming [facepalm]
I was eating my lunch when I read this! I might need a towel for a wet clean up.It's unfortunate that 1.166 isn't ready yet for live servers and we made sure to forward your feedback to the team so that it won't happen again in the future.
Yeah, but there are 2 more sequential quests (we actually have 55 sequential while in Sorcerers' Homecoming were 53 if my files are correct..)Lol well, that will make lists really easy then, won't it? I can rename my old file.
I noticed this line
"But that's not all! The Sleepy Titan, an expiring building that produces Broken Shard's, has its comeback on both prize lanes!"
So we get a building that makes Shards when we are still capped at 10 and would appear to be a most useless building except for its use as Spell Fragments.
I guess I have never had that issue of not having enough runes for the wonders when needed.Well that wild be a silly thing to do, unless you don't build any Wonders at all, or have them all at max level. I save all expiring buildings that give broken shards, and then when a Wonder reaches a rune shard level, I put some of them out and make broken shards, since it could take 70-80 broken shards to fill the wheel, if you are low on shards, or have bad luck.
Try logging in on a pc then log out and try your phone again. That's what I did and its working for me nowSame version here (1.165.2-f7673c-256 (zz 1.167)) on android and still can't see the event...
The work around has worked for both my citiesNo extra days.
