Looks like the console update yesterday doesn’t include pc/mobile’s Kerberos and Famine changes. Guess console players have to suffer a bit more. 😛 Hopefully these are enough for a meta shift. Kerberos and Famine have gone on for far too long. ---

This is likely due to the fact the console update would have had to been submitted weeks ago to get through Microsoft and Sony approval. Hopefully you guys will get it next patch. ---

Why did you make it more clicks to change the filters in the troops screen. Any way to turn off the effects when matching gems, it is annoying. I am glad that you are trying to improve the game but wholesale UI changes is not the way to do it. ---
