Unfair Point Loss – Game Started Without Queue Confirmation

[torn pond]

It’s not acceptable for a competitive game to start without the player pressing the queue button. I lost 27 points because of this issue, which feels very unfair and frustrating after spending hours playing. Please fix this problem so that matches don’t start automatically. Players should never lose points for something that isn’t their fault.
This is the worst bug that can happen in a competitive esport and needs to be fixed as soon as possible.

[sinful escarp]

and I remember we have called 2 other one like this with both teckson and web3

and once was waiting at lobby at phantom finals 7-8 months ago. they were at stage 10 or something XD

There is a potential fix for this already included in the testnet build i believe

When trying to move my Illuvials (both on the field and the bench), they sometimes become stuck and can’t be moved anywhere. Dragging does nothing — they stay in place and can’t even be repositioned or swapped. @gray barn

Hi @gray barn ,
I don’t want to sound mean, but I just want to share some feedback. I really enjoy having a fun experience, especially since I invest 4–5 hours per day, and even more on weekends, to play properly and improve professionally. So when I lose 27 points without actually playing, it feels really bad — especially when I’m giving my full attention. Please take this as constructive feedback.

@lone elbow , with all respect for you and the team — I know everyone is working very hard, even with limited resources. But please, if you’re going to focus on another game, at least make sure the current one is solid first.

Right now, it feels like you’re chasing too many things at once — and when you chase too many rabbits, you never catch one. We’re starting to lose hope. You can’t release a game meant to be competitive and esports-ready if it’s still full of bugs.

I say this with love and respect — the art, the world, and the potential are amazing. The game truly fits the vision you’ve built. But things like losing points without playing, bugs where Illuvials can’t be moved on the board, and other issues make it very hard for players to stay confident and invested.

There’s so much money, time, and passion invested — both from your team and from us, the community. Please, if you really care about making this project something great, slow down and make one great game first. Make it stable, bug-free, and worthy of the esports vision.

We still have hope — that’s why we’re here. But we need to see that same commitment from your side.

i get it and we do take the feedback onboard always. I just wanted to share that there should be a fix in for this in testnet - please do let us know if it happens again whilst in testnet

The game is still clearly in a significant state of flux currently. The bugs aren't the issue as they're to be expected with the ongoing changes. It's that you guys decided to run a competitive scene on a game that isn't ready for it yet. That's the real issue here imo
