When is this going to get fixed?? 😡

Post by donfish06 »

I know this isn't for posting bugs, bug maybe someone can point me in the right direction. When I start a game, I choose "Same map for all players". As soon as I click to search for players, the setting changes to "Normal". If I am doing a turn based game, I can adjust it back to "Same Map". If a live game I cannot. To add insult to injury, of the 10 or more times this has happened to me, (consecutively) EVERYTIME but once my opponent gets the silver lake map, which is why I want to play the same map to begin with!

I posted on the bug forum and was told I had to post on a different place because it was a pre-game issue. I did, maybe 3 weeks ago and no help! I do not know how to find my previous forum posts or anything. I don't know how to escalate this, as it is an ongoing issue. I have a premium membership mainly for playing ark nova, and this is ridiculous. It needs fixed!

Are you creating the table from the game page or the Play Now page? I tried it just now from Play Now, and this didn't happen. That's by far the better way to create a table anyway, so if you're going via the game page, try the other way.

If you don't know what the Play Now page referred to above is, it's one of the tabs at the top of main site pages, and it's in my signature. For the ultimate control over table creation, only use this page with the rightmost setting on Manual. Ever. Until they take it away...
