Yessss! Just what I wanted!

• Country names are now only displayed in the 3 biggest areas of a country, if a country happens to have several separated areas on the map.

I got massive performance issues since I updated, at least on PC, making the game nigh unplayable.

I use Firefox, maybe that's why.

Information of day and month were added to the newspaper. Additionally to the ingame day of the game round, the newspaper now also informs you about the real life date, making it easier for you to find certain information if needed.

I see it there, but it doesn't work: can't type in the text box.

Attention, Generals!

Today’s update brings some quality of life improvements and bug fixes. The building details of provinces now inform you about the hitpoints of the selected building on mobile devices. Country names are displayed more centralized, making them true eye candy. Last but not least, game rounds now have their own chats, allowing communication with players within your game round without having to rely on global chat.

For a complete overview of all changes, please check the list below:

General:

• Building hitpoints are now displayed in the building details of selected provinces on mobile devices.
• Country names are now displayed near the center of a country, instead of close to the capitol. This change avoids issues with skewed country names on certain maps.
• Country names are now only displayed in the 3 biggest areas of a country, if a country happens to have several separated areas on the map.
• The “ingame” chat channel was re-introduced to the game. Only players of the game round you are currently playing have access to this chat.
• The 1-3 dots indicating the army size were removed from the army bar. The 1-3 dot indicator in the army labels was replaced with actual numbers in a previous update, making the corresponding dots in the army bar obsolete.
• On desktop, when hovering over a unit’s image in the split army dialog the unit’s name is displayed in a tooltip, making it easier to differentiate the units.
• Information about morale penalties for being at war were removed from the tooltip of the war icon in the diplomacy menu, as the morale penalty for being at war was removed with a previous update.
• A Huawei AppGallery button was added to the Call of War website.
• Mobile users do not get a floating tooltip anymore stating “Not yet accepted” for games they cannot join due to a minimum rank requirement. Instead, players are now informed about the rank requirement when tapping on the greyed out “Join” button.
• Information of day and month were added to the newspaper. Additionally to the ingame day of the game round, the newspaper now also informs you about the real life date, making it easier for you to find certain information if needed.
  • On maps with a higher speed factor the real life date does not change for several in game days.

Bug Fixes:

• A bug was fixed that caused rewarded units and additional tutorial units not being adjusted to the doctrine of a player.
• The floating tooltip of an army now shows the correct travel time when moving it between own and enemy territory. Travel times displayed in the army bar and in the floating tooltip are now identical.
• Missing damage icons were added in the unit details in the production menu.
• An issue was resolved that prevented the confirmation screen from being displayed on mobile devices, when Blueprints were purchased.
• A bug was fixed that caused the health bar of buildings in espionage reports on mobile devices to be displayed too dark.
• An issue was resolved that caused a line break in the names of some rural provinces that had names longer than 10 characters.
• A bug was fixed that could cause an error message with some players when those players tried to collect an achievement.
• A bug was fixed that prevented the army health from being reflected in the damage efficiency and damage potential displayed in the army bar and army info popup.

We hope all these changes and bug fixes improve your game experience even more!

Yea...it started today for me...I’m on iPad browser and whenever I do something like 50% of the time the game freezes for like 5-10 seconds....

Something they added must have caused serious performance issues... I'm surprised they didn't notice this in testing?

BTW I wonder if there are performance issues in Low Graphics Mode and/or non-WebGL graphics.

Yea I tried in Low graphics mode...same problem

To be honest low graphics mode doesn’t improve the performance of the game...it just looks different (according to me)

Stops the freezes if you play with non WebGL, at least on my iPhone, but it looks terrible in comparison.

I think you should roll back the update, it was better before.

Yea I hate turn offWEBGL. It looks horrible and also it takes time for the chunks to load. Or whatever it’s called

ya

Why’d u block me in discord...

you where saying adult words

Hey guys, we are aware of the performance problems and crashes. We are investigating and will hopefully fix it very soon.

Nightmare

Crashes freezes, cant view, im being invaded and can do nothing about it....not happy
