Not sure if this is a worthwhile bug to report, but the game called a Decepticon retreat at the exact same second that the only Decepticon in the mission went into stasis lock...

Just ran 5 of mine through arena battles, and no one on either side scored any points, don't bother with that either until the bug is fixed. FYI

Yeah, if people haven't noticed on their character pages that there are pointer and argument issues with the MySQL database. I wouldn't even bother playing around with the troops and assigning points or armor/weapons till Ryan or the staff gives us a go ahead.

It is all good, I'm enjoying catching up on some of the forums and think of this as a mini vacation from the grind. I can wait for the site owner to do what he needs to do.

Not sure if this is the game or my browser, but the registry and missions screens aren't updating like they should. They're perpetually 2 or 3 updates behind, saying characters I are still active that I just deactivated or put in a mission, stuff like that. Can't say as I recall seeing this happen before.

Not sure if this is "a bug" or an RNG thing...

http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar/view_mission.php?mission_id=433704

We both have double the life of the BOT, but somehow us CONs are low on energy and retreat?!

I'd say that was one helluva bluff pulled on us.

the end result's tallied off of how much damage you did in the match, not your health percentage in the end. autobots. always tactful. :BOT:

Pretty sure people are aware, but the game is... well I just keep picturing it being tossed out of Astrotrain with Megatron (IE its working, but sporadically)

Same here. Just put both my 5s in missions, and 4 hours instantly elapsed. Says they got the points though. Not sure I want to risk putting them in CR, since it didn't do it automatically.

EDIT: Didn't the whole site go down all yesterday afternoon, too? Could this be related after-effects?

I've noticed a bug when trying to put my bots into missions, i go to update it to get more missions but it can take me refreshing page 3 or 4 times for any mission to appear so i can put my bots in to it.

There's a slight delay, maybe around 10 seconds before a page refreshes on the server. I've spoken to Ryan about it, he made a change site wide and that's how it came about. Haven't heard anything back yet whether it will be fixed or not.

Not likely a serious bug, but the second Flash-Turbine takes down the only Autobot in the mission...the Autobots win the mission.

Magnus got a kill, but didn't outscore the 'cons. Just bringing it up in case this sort of thing is a harbinger of greater problems.
