@grantis45 said: famousmortimor said: 100%? Well, you've got 100% already, however it is 100% failure on the last two match days...and nothing will be done...again... And like microsoft, you have no problem accepting my money to buy gold balls, but apparently have a problem delivering the product in a working fashion Edited by famousmortimor 11-06-2012 20:59 a) I don't get any money, I'm a user exactly the same as you b) I very much doubt you've put as much money into this game through GB's as I have c) your game was a bit late. No failures at all. d) you played 2 games at the weekend that weren't late e) if you want 100% availability go buy 300,000 gb's so they can afford a new server. a) Wether or not you get money isn't the point, the point is I spend money on this game, and it doesn't work. b) So, the money I put in isn't as hard earned as the money you put in? This is ridiculous, be it $5 or $500, i've paid for something that isn't working c) 2 matches in a row have been late (not private league, group matches) wherein I've had someone temporary promoted, games are later (failure or not) and he is sent down before match, wrecking the lineup and cheating me out of the motivation bump for temp promotion d) I am concerned with group matches, as I don't stand a chance to be promoted to a higher division in private league now do I? higher div = more money e) Why would I give this shite site anymore of my money?? The product i've already purchased isn't working! |

The product i've already purchased isn't working! . You remind me of me a while back. You obviously weren't around when we closed a forum and forced the devs to make changes. a) that was your point, that I get money. However the game does work, it's just had a couple of downtimes for server maintenace recently. b) It's just as hard earned, but you have to accept that sometimes games need a bit of downtime to be repaired. c) I'm sorry that effected your temp promotions. Can't really say any more on this one. d) It did not affect any results. Not quite sure where you're going with this one. Private leagues don't have any promotion. e) Hey, it is working and is a very good game most of the time. The product is free, you pay for the extras. You haven't lost anything from the downtime apart for a couple of temp promotes from the sound of things. |

a) That wasn't my point, I never addressed that to you, but rather, to uplay...are you saying my money just disappears? You seem to be an intelligent fellow, please tell me you understand someone is taking my money... b) If the game needs downtime, then they should extend the extras that are going on, like they do with auctions... c) yeah, temp promos and training...kind of the point of using gold balls to do searches huh? d) it absolutely affected my results! my lineup completely changed, I had a LW playing RDF, DFM as IM, FWDS as wingers...it cost me the match! PLs not having promotions is exactly where I'm going with this point...seems to me the weekends (ie not during GROUP play would be the time to have your 'downtime' no?) e) yes, I lost a couple of temp promos, and 3 points today...in GROUP, where there is promotion/relegation...you brought up my two weekend matches that weren't delayed...who cares, its PL, there is nothing in it...I'm talking about group play! I lost because of 'downtime' I should have lost friday when the SAME thing happened to my lineup and temp promote, but somehow I got the win in that match...not today! |

Ok, I'm going to stop with the abc stuff cos I have to keep scrolling up to the first post. There's been a couple of down time's that were annouced in advance, id rather the game didn't completely fall over if the game needed moving to a new server, and I'll give them some leeway since this seemed to be the case. The downtime last week caused a lot of problems for all of us, but was apparently very important, however I don't know of anyone else whose GK played up front. Are you sure the automatic button for your squad wasn't pressed down. The downtime today can not have caused any problems with your games, it was 30 mins. |

The downtime today, as on friday absolutely caused problems for my game! I don't know how to make that any more clear. I set my lineup last night, the DFM that was temp promo was in the starting lineup. Now, because the game was delayed, by 2 hours, not 30 minutes (I was online at the time (supposedly) of the start of the match) the DFM was returned to juniors before the match started. This, as you can imagine created a problem, one that cost me 3 points, despite your refusal to acknowledge it. Because he was sent down, I had no one in his starting position, it looks like everyone in my lineup was shifted up one spot on the lineup sheet, therefore, I had everyone out of position save my LDF and keeper. I had a CDF playing DFM, DFM was my CF!!! LW was at RDF, RDF moved to CDF and so on. There was no automatic button pressed, as I said, I set my lineup and tactics last night, signed on this morning to watch the little animation and nothing...for 2 hours! 2 hours, not 30 minutes! And the entire time I was waiting I couldn't fix the lineup because 'match was in progress'. Even though the match was certainly NOT in progress. |

Actually famous, I am apologetic, you are completely correct it did affect both your games. As you're aware I can't help or turn back time. So I'm afraid, that we just have to hope you will promote anyway. Good luck stinky butt. |

Actually, this has happened before, it burned me once too. As a result, I pretty much never temp promote unless it is at least 4-5 hours after the game time. You have to plan for failure in this game. I always ALWAYS set my line-up for the next game as soon as the last one has finished, because the server goes down very unpredictably for very long stretches of time. I'm not excusing U-Play here. But like Microsoft products, you have 2 choices: stop using it, or work around the annoying bugs as best you can. Giving yourself an ulcer by complaining won't really help here. Let us do the complaining and get ulcers for you. Believe me, we are doing our best on the mod forum to try to slap them around and change the usual patterns. |
