Release Notes - 2021-03-09

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 buggy it freezes for me too for like some seconds

Will that "freeze" be fixed some how in the near future? Are you sure that you are not making our Vcards to mine some satoshies by the way...? When the game freezes my video fan goes wild... like when I play TW in battle with massive armies or like I put it to mine on 100%...

By the way how much of the "non crashing guys" are high command? If that is the case I see no more reasons to play ... we somehow get aside and used to the handicaps and all other "stuff" and benefits for gold users and the penalty for refusing to buy gold... but this will be a whole new level of filthy tricks that game have to offer... :D

I can assure you that HC and gold have nothing to do with these issues. I have High Command, and they happen for me. I know many other people who have High Command who also have these issues.

The freezing issue is being worked on as we speak. There's no ETA at this point in time, but resolving the issue is one of the current priorities.

I’m pretty sure it’s fixed for me. I’m not 100% sure but for 6 hours no freezing has happened. Thanks

I have High Command. I currently cannot go anywhere near the mobile version of the game. Not only does it lag in the game, but when the game is running, the performance of my device gets lag aswell (for example: quickly changing to a messenger app).

Patience is needed for this one.

PC seems to be ok for the majority of the time but can freeze for 10 seconds or so.

i too have high command and experianced crashes, freezing and even worse "not-freezing"

Its when the game just goes on u give orders start research it even begins the countdowns then but when coming back on just nothing happend

Well only happend few days, sure it had to be one where u just did engage in a fierce battle in an 4x game ^^

Running smooth for me.

For some reason when I go on to account settings to enable canvas graphics it doesn’t seem to show up I’ve tried multiple times

I use mobile if that helps

If you read the newest release notes, you'd know that it's been removed and now there's a huge protest about it.
