Hi There I’m Phillip I own a PS4. I buy the potions and other items in the Guild Shop Tab, and when you play, it periodically gives the AI the first turn. It only happens when I go into the Guild week game like this weeks game: “The Amethyst Light” and buy the “Potion Of Explosion” and “Potion of Enchantment” It only happens when I play in the guild games.

Thanks,

Phillip

Reminder that for the first 4 years of IP2 being acquired by Digital Bros, they get paid depending on how well GoW does financially. They are being actively incentivized to push monetization first and foremost. Ding ding ding. See above. Honestly even with all the criticism I post I feel the same. I…

Just to add a point that I haven’t seen discussed before - class traits that explode a gem at the start of battle also cause this issue in all game modes. Currently leveling doomsayer and it’s a huge pain.

I have either had the first turn stolen or the extra turn after a 4 match resulting in a loss of 4 matches on this morning. This has destroyed my guild war for the week!! I am so angry I cannot see straight. THIS MUST BE ADDRESSED!! Extremely frustrated at the moment. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

I’m going to go out on a limb here and say I think there is very little chance of this bug getting fixed. Only 3 more weeks of this campaign, after which potions stop falling on start screen and bug becomes irrelevant. So if the devs haven’t fixed it by now, I’d say it seems not worth fixing from their perspective.

Will be interesting to see what extremely annoying bug comes with the next heroic gem in the next campaign. Sadly at this stage I would genuinely be surprised if there wasn’t one

It won’t be fixed before 5.7 but should be then.

> Hi folks,
> 
> The reason Gman mentioned we have a “hopeful” fix for the next update version 5.7 is that we’re still awaiting the official response from QA that the fix is verified. We believe the issue is fixed in the next update but we don’t announce it absolutely is until we get that final verification.
> 
> The reason the fix cannot be released sooner is because it requires a client update - that means that we need to submit new game builds to all the platforms the game is on and then await those platforms approval - which we have no control over from that point.
> 
> When we can fix things on the server, we do so as that means we can get the fix out quickly, but this one requires a change in the game code so it has to go through the entire submission and approval process.
> 
> We are very sorry for the wait, we are doing everything we can and we know how frustrating this bug is. I’m also sorry for the delayed responses in this thread.

Agree. Devs tend to not fix the campaign bug.

True, at this point, I want to the extensively test the next campaign gimmick to prevent similar bugs

Apply for a beta tester position, so you can work for free and being ignored.

Slow boat on this one. Doesn’t change their $$$. They don’t care.
