Re: Update Discussion

Problems with the new update (April 26th)

<Everything is color coated, problems/explanations of the same color go together>

- EE loading screen now loads even slower
- Friends can only be added using emails
- Friends can only be accepted through emails
- You can join any level a friend is in (I'll explain why this is bad below)
- You can only be in 1 world at 1 time

It was fast, then after scifi, it became slow, now it's even slower... epic fix guys...
Adding friends with emails is just stupid, why not just have it so you type in the username?
Friends accepted through emails? that's extremely unnecessary, a simple box of whose friended you when you log in is enough
To me this is the worst. I work on many levels alone and like to not be bothered while working, with this, even if my level names are censored. People can still just walk right in.
I understand this is part of how to show which room a user is in, but it's also very irritating for those who like to play on multiple tabs

Until those are fixed this update will remain just as bad as the others :/

- However, I do like how your smiley stays the same in between switching levels, and even appears on your friends list.

Re: Update Discussion

I don't know any of my friends emails, so I can't add friends! it should be changed to "username"

Re: Update Discussion

tako this is outdated, place the friends list on 26th April.
Love to see that the guys are back at working on the game!

No worries, OP completely updated.

Great to see EE growing and supporting an in-game community, but there are a few kinks - like slower speeds and awkward email identification.

Great update nonetheless.

PS: What on earth is the intro screen supposed to be? It looks like the house from Hansel and Gretel with a lollipop house next to it.

Yeah, well, you know that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.

Re: Update Discussion

Shouldn't you be able to type in the username to add a friend instead of their email adress?
This way lots of people, especially kids, will share their personal email address with strangers all over the world and I don't want everybody to know my personal email address just for adding friends.
This can also make hacking a bit easier because hackers will know what email address they have to hack.
By changing it, you will also be able to add people as a friend who are using facebook or kongregate to play EE, because you can't add those right now.

Thanks in advance

Re: Update Discussion

For the friends: It's telling me I MUST be beta to accept. I was sent one by a beta, but I'm not beta, and I can't accept. WHY?

It is my understanding the friend system works in beta only, meaning non-betas may not accept requests.

Re: Update Discussion

Ha! You think it's bad that you ee.com players have to use e-mail!

There are some of us here on Kong, you'll notice that WE DON'T HAVE E-MAILS THAT CHRIS CAN USE!!!! (Don't say that he can, I have an account on Kong with an e-mail, and an ee.com one with the same e-mail.)

This, is a stupid update. (And people are going to say that we always cry for updates, then cry when we get them), but really, I would much rather go without this update. Everything Master1 said.

Yeah, because we all really want to give out our emails. Currently, this update is just about useless for everybody. Damn using legit emails.

Re: Update Discussion

I think it is nice how you enter a world as the same facial expression as your most recent smiley, and the rest of the update is OK for the most part.

...Did you even read my post?

I know it's bad. For Kong though, it is literally impossible.

Re: Update Discussion

I can't believe Chris makes you pay for chat (and then censors it anyway) in order to "protect the children" but thought it was a good idea to make people have to share their email addresses in order to use the friends list.

Edit: After thinking about it for a bit, I realize it's probably because internally, the game uses your email address to identify you, and the actual user names aren't stored in such a way that they can easily be used to identify the associated account in reverse. That is, <a class="__cf_email__" href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" data-cfemail="166e566f3875797b">[email  protected]</a><script cf-hash='f9e31' type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */!function(){try{var t="currentScript"in document?document.currentScript:function(){for(var t=document.getElementsByTagName("script"),e=t.length;e--;)if(t[e].getAttribute("cf-hash"))return t[e]}();if(t&&t.previousSibling){var e,r,n,i,c=t.previousSibling,a=c.getAttribute("data-cfemail");if(a){for(e="",r=parseInt(a.substr(0,2),16),n=2;a.length-n;n+=2)i=parseInt(a.substr(n,2),16)^r,e+=String.fromCharCode(i);e=document.createTextNode(e),c.parentNode.replaceChild(e,c)}}}catch(u){}}();/* ]]> */</script> knows that its associated user name is "coolguy123" but "coolguy123" doesn't know that its associated email address is <a class="__cf_email__" href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" data-cfemail="5d251d24733e323073">[email  protected]</a><script cf-hash='f9e31' type="text/javascript"> /* <![CDATA[ */!function(){try{var t="currentScript"in document?document.currentScript:function(){for(var t=document.getElementsByTagName("script"),e=t.length;e--;)if(t[e].getAttribute("cf-hash"))return t[e]}();if(t&&t.previousSibling){var e,r,n,i,c=t.previousSibling,a=c.getAttribute("data-cfemail");if(a){for(e="",r=parseInt(a.substr(0,2),16),n=2;a.length-n;n+=2)i=parseInt(a.substr(n,2),16)^r,e+=String.fromCharCode(i);e=document.createTextNode(e),c.parentNode.replaceChild(e,c)}}}catch(u){}}();/* ]]> */</script>

Still, Chris should change how this works as it would obviously be securer and much more convenient for the players.

Get rid of the stupid limit of only one connection at a time, it is super duper annoying

Ex: you can't be on a boss and work on your level between rounds.
Ex2: You can't afk a win zone then go play another level

Rant rant rant

No reason for this...

Re: Update Discussion

Thank you Chris!
Now if I leave a level I reach the endless loop of loading screen! The lag was still acceptable, but having to refresh to play a new level is too much.

Re: Update Discussion

I think it blocks the guy you enter, so you won't see his chat messages, and he couldn't ask you to be friends.

As we are still testing out the friends system, you have to be a beta member to actually try it. And since the system is still in beta, we might occasionally clear all friends during testing.
