I played in two this morning, but no more have shown up, again.

Any word?

    There have only been two so far. The first two were there like normal, but after both the next one didn't have the "pending" countdown. I assume the third will show up in 10 minutes like normal - I guess their last update just took out the countdown.

    Which I don't really mind: it leaves a red "!" up there that bothers me since it won't go away until you start the event.

    Edit - yep, 3rd LR there like it should be.

    They can all disappear until the seed teams come back. Not too much fun hitting the 166 wall at 0 points.

    Where is the noise about the seed teams? Bring them back! Bring them back! Bring them back!

    The seed teams are still there, you just need to make sure the game is open a few minutes before the next round starts. I managed 5 seeds on the last one, but usually I've been getting into the 171 pt range when I remember.

    This occasionally happens to me when my internet connection is bad. Restarting the app usually fixes it.

    I see this comment occasionally and wonder if the mobile platform always used to be able to get seed teams at any point?

    On PC nothing changed, you had to be in event as event started to get more than three seed teams. If they were gone, I'd be making noise. icon_e_wink.gif

    Has the game seemed really buggy to people today? I've had a bunch of lost retaliations, we're not getting the reward previews, no countdown to LRs, I've still not gotten prizes for a LR that ended an hour ago, etc.

    Rewards have been late all day for LRs. I'm at least one round behind still, maybe two. They've been popping up at weird times and I've honestly lost track. The no previews or time slice info is concerning.

    The weird retal thing was happening last week too. There are times when I'll finish a fight and I'll see a red node but the retal pop-up won't display until after the next fight or even later, and the score won't update properly until I force it to by checking the leaderboard.

    It's the trade-off for adding the Daily Quest.

    The Dev Team giveth and the Dev Team taketh away.
