Why no option to "See Final Situation"?

Post by MuSquared »

When playing turn-based, I'm always frustrated by games that simply end. I can see scores and who won, but I like to see exactly how everyone scored their points. Faraway especially seems like a game that needs this, so that new players can see which cards scored and why. The "Final Situation" shows exactly what I'd like to see. So why is there no option to jump to that, rather than forcing us to watch the whole replay?

Likewise, let me put in a vote for the suggestion I've seen below, of showing the current scores for each card at all times, rather than saving it all for the end. Since it's all public information and can be calculated, please just have BGA calculate it in real time so we don't have to. That would make my "Final Situation" request less necessary, although it still would be nice.

The option is there, but for limited time:

(available up to 24 hours after game end)

Ok, weird. This time it did work, so my apologies. I'm pretty sure I looked within 24 hours last time, when it gave me the option of "view replay" but not "see final situation".

Could the difference be friendly vs. rated games? The first game where it didn't show up was friendly. The second where it did was "normal".

Anyway, it's there now, so thank you!

Maybe it worked for a premium member, but for my recently completed game against MuSquared, I can't get the final situation to give me a valid final setup. I've added my experience to bug #96376, but the short version is that no matter what I try, very few of the cards turn face up, and two of the three players don't have all 8 cards (face down or up).

Don't know if it's what your looking for but you can swipe down at the end when it's over to see directly the final situation

Hello,

This is not as simple as "it lasts for 24 hours".

The main issue is: the option "box" is not always displayed on the summary screen.
Funny cause you have the link inside email sent...

Somethimes / for some games, it works perfectly.
It seems also to be related to what device you are using (mobile version vs web version).
Can't tell you exactly, as it seems random/game related from all my experience.

But what is reliable: inside end game email, the link is there and working.

This is clearly a display bug.
