On 11/17/2022 at 7:36 PM, Oliver66 said:Q27: Do you plan to rework the affection system of the harem? Right now, upgrading the guys is costly and quite hard for everyone. In my opinion, upgrading the affection should not be so costly because upgrading the rank of the guys allows you to look their scenes, their poses and be happy to discover what the artists have made with the parody. And for me, the main aim of playing that game is to look the poses/scenes of your guys. It should not be hard to watch it. I feel always sad with your montly survey where you ask us to rate guys of the previous month when i'm quite sure not many people got the majority of the guys, and for those who managed to get them, well often they are not upgraded cause u have to chose where invest your ressources. It's hard enough to get the guys, to upgrade their XP, spend gems to awaken them. In my opinion it should be far more easy to upgrade the affection in order to look and be happy (or not) about the scenes/poses. PS : and to give you a response for your survey, no one (especially those who already have the guy in their harem) should have to go to the wiki to learn what there poses looks like. And answering with that way is quite a bad move cause u don't see the scenes, and really often, poses/look of a guy are "classic" but scenes could be amazing and would change the note u would give in the survey.A: It is part of the overall balance - upgrading and rewards. More rewards are constantly added to the game. So all in all we don't think there is a general problem with this.
I'm so confused by the question here. I have every character maxed out on Affection, and more extra Gifts than I know what to do with.
XP, sure, that's tricky. There are never enough gems, and sometimes I even run out of Books. (I use the Buy All button in the Market as often as I can remember, to make sure I keep myself stocked up.)
But Affection? I don't think I've ever encountered any difficulties there. To the point where I'm usually selling Rare and even Epic Gifts whenever a "sell items" contest or event task comes up, because I'm absolutely lousy with them.
...Is that not the norm? Have I just gotten crazy lucky with Gifts drops?

Something I can't figure out; maybe someone here will have some ideas.
Why do the nav buttons for Leagues and Sex God Path — but not any of the others — have blue "Information" buttons ("i"-inside-a-circle) attached to them? And then, inside Sex God Path, why do both Champions and Pantheon's Stairway again have those same buttons attached?
AFAICT they do nothing. Clicking on them merely goes to the indicated section of the game, same as clicking the button they're attached to. They don't have hover-text associated with them, they don't bring up any information popups... they don't seem to do anything, honestly. Are they really just cluttering up the screen for absolutely no reason?

Floor 1000 is more or less a milestone anyways. I'm Level 416 currently with three fully upgraded Mythics and one half upgraded one and I still fail to get past 1000.
By now I am stuck for three months at this level. 😜
I made it off just a few days ago, when I finally made my peace with the simple reality of the situation: Players get to sit on floor 1000 for as long as it takes them to accept that the only way to win, is by plonking down the necessary
BonbonsKobans to purchase and equip one of these:
So last week (after more than a full year stuck on floor 1000), I finally did that. And as expected, easily breezed through the battle. And so I'm now (rapidly!) wasting the remaining 199 charges of that booster on piddly main-campaign villain fights and in-betweeney Pantheon floors where I could just as easily win without the boost.
(Which means, of course, that by the time I reach the next floor that will require boosted stats in order to win, those 200 charges will all have been spent, and the only choice will be to purchase another. I knew right up front that I was really buying it for just a single use. Nobody ever accused Kinkoid of failing to cleverly engineer their currency vacuum for maximum possible suction.)

I still can't recall seeing that mission again since, but I don't always read all of them closely TBH.
I did notice, though — and this could be pure coincidence, of course, but it felt related even if there was no direct connection at all — that the VERY NEXT Patch Notes, just six days after I posted this, had the note about now being able to submit feedback on support experiences.
I got a nice little jolt of Smug from that. "I have a comment card, and I am not afraid to use it!" Just call me Karen.
(I didn't fill any out for my previous support interactions, tho. I figure this post counted as feedback enough, no need to pile on unnecessarily.)
-
It blows the mind that this didn't show up in testing, since it interferes with every aspect of equipment maintenance.
Swapping to new, better equipment (if in possession of any, and who can tell?) becomes such a tedious process, when having to do the comparisons "by hand", that it's not worth bothering with. I'm just ignoring my equipment inventory completely until a fix shows up.
Because of that, selling off any of the higher-level/rarity items, or consuming them to upgrade Mythic equipment, is off the table because there's no way to be sure you're not throwing away something better than what's currently equipped. (Especially on the Mythic-upgrade screen, where you can't even see the stats of your current equipment in order to compare the items you're choosing to cast into the flames.)
Personally I think they should've immediately rolled back the update, called a Mulligan, and tried again in a week, month, whatever, once they had this fixed before the (re-)deployment. Armchair quarterbacking aside, obviously they opted to instead just steamroll ahead with the broken build. So here's hoping a fix shows up ASAP. (Before the end of the current event would've been ideal, but that's seeming less and less likely with just 15 hours remaining.)
-
I have to say, the canned responses in the support ticket system can be kind of grating. And when they repeatedly say something like, "we are unable to locate it", you very quickly start to doubt that anyone even tried. Or, am I just being unreasonable here?

Fair enough. Userstyles extensions handle all that for you.

It seems like, around a month or two ago, a change was made to how the site handles tooltips in the interface. And since that change, AFAICT, the same logic that controls whether the League page loads the full interface or the "mobile" one, also controls whether or not tooltips are enabled in the interface?
Please undo that change. I use a mouse-and-pointer desktop interface with Google Chrome in windowed (non-fullscreen) mode, and suddenly if I make the window too narrow all of the tooltips disappear from the interface. They always worked before, and there's no reason they shouldn't be displayed even if my browser width is below N pixels. There are better ways to detect mobile users and/or touch-based interfaces, and no reason to punish the rest of us with a broken interface.

Firefox doesn't need any extension to use custom CSS, just put it in %userprofile%/chrome/UserContent.css
That's true, but style extensions allow you to scope a given set of changes to a particular site (or even particular page), to avoid side-effects messing up other sites you visit. There are only so many different combinations of tags, classes, and IDs out there, and if all of your custom CSS is global it isn't long before an adjustment made to one site has undesirable side-effects somewhere else.
(The selectors for the Kinkoid news posts, for example, are:
#popups #popup_news .news_page_content .news_page_text { } /* ...and... */ #popups #popup_news .news_page_content .read_more { }
That's pretty generic.

Fixed, at some point.

If anyone is interested, I've published a simple UserStyle to disable the "read more" links in news items, and just show the full content automatically. You can install it using an appropriate style-management extension (like Stylus for Chrome or Firefox) from its listing page at userstyles.world:

As the title says, even though I have Sound set to "Off" in the Settings, occasionally the game will let out a short burst of sound, usually two or three notes of (what I've determined to be, by temporarily enabling it) the background music that plays when Sound is set to "On". It only ever lasts a second or so, and then cuts off again.
Best I can tell, it seems this occurs when the page has been sitting idle for a while, and then some event fires or timer expires that triggers a burst of new activity in the interface. So, here's my conjecture (purely theoretical) for a possible sequence of events. Most likely there's some flaw in my assumptions or reasoning that would rule out this exact scenario, but perhaps it can point in the right direction to find the actual source of the problem:
- The interface sits idle for some length of time (that appears to be a necessary precondition for this sound bug to occur)
- Something occurs that triggers changes/updates to the interface, like automatically bringing up the (real-money) store dialog
- Because the page had been idle for some time, the local copy of my user data has expired and needs to be refreshed from the server
- Until that refresh completes, the fact that I have sound disabled in the Settings can't be determined.
- The audio code really wants to play some music, and can't get an answer on whether or not I've disabled that pending the user data refresh
- Too impatient to wait any longer, the audio code starts playback on the grounds that a check of my Sound setting value didn't come back with "off" (or anything else, so far), and if sound's not "off" it's allowed to play music.
- The refresh/update of user data finally completes, and access to my settings values is restored
- The audio code finally receives the "off" answer it needs, and begrudgingly halts playback.
OTOH, I may be talking nonsense. Perhaps none of the crap I dreamed up here is even a tiny bit correct or feasible. The real problem may have absolutely nothing to do with any of this. Definitely still happens, though, for whatever reason.
Forgot a critically important detail: This only seems to happen in Windows 10. I also use Linux, and haven't ever had the game "leak" sound there. (Google Chrome is the browser in both cases.)
-
Countdown timers in some areas of the Gay Harem interface seem to be inserting an "expires in" label before the time-remaining display (and without a space between them), even though those timers already have a separate label.
For example, in Path of Valor or Path of Glory:
Or in Daily Goals:
Other timers (Champions, Contests, Missions, etc.) are fine, and don't show "expires in".

in reality this is quite confusing and messy, that one need to switch to team selection and then go back to out them in the correct spot
That is, I agree, quite frustrating. If we could somehow do away with the "mode-switching" involved in the Draft process, so that you aren't constantly cycling through:
Change Draft ➡️ select held characters ➡️ New Draft (1-n times, possibly with changes to held/unheld) ➡️ Confirm ➡️ rearrange lineup ➡️ Change Draft ➡️ select held characters ➡️ New Draft (1-n times, possibly with changes to held/unheld) ➡️ Confirm ➡️ rearrange lineup ➡️ Change Draft...
it would make things a lot more comfortable.
But that's a deficiency in the interaction, not the presentation, IMHO. (And it's one that's always existed. It's just more likely to be encountered by more players, and therefore will irritate more of us more often, in the wake of these display changes.)
First thing that comes to mind: Why is Held status a temporary flag that only exists while in Change Draft mode? Why couldn't we mark whatever characters we want to hold right from the standard interface, and have them retain that status until the stage is completed? If we could do that, there'd be no reason to have to activate "Change Draft", or "Confirm" exiting it when we're done. We could just click "New Draft" right from the normal lineup-management state, and the held set wouldn't have to be re-selected each time we begin another round of "New Draft" rolls.
"New Draft" would probably need a secondary confirmation ("Are you sure?") added, to protect against an accidental click destroying a great lineup... but even with an added prompt, it'd still be a lot less tedious than the current mode-switching nonsense.

Then, I reiterate: "Champions stage numbering makes no sense"
The numbering could be based on the "blob" you're moving from, in which case there are 5 stages numbered 0 through 4. Then they'd be "stage 0 of 4" through "stage 4 of 4". (Though personally I feel that just looks wrong.)
Or, it could be based on the "blob" you're moving to, in which case the first stage you play should be "stage 1" and the last "stage 5". That seems perfectly reasonable to me.
As a third alternative, they could drop the "of N", and just use "stage 0" through "stage 4" for the five playable stages. But having "stage 0" through "stage 4", while saying they're "stage n of 5", is demonstrably untrue when "stage 5" never takes place.
(And, c'mon, let's be real. The most likely explanation is that someone just forgot a '+ 1' in the JS to display the stage number, since I'm sure they're numbered from 0 internally — everything is indexed from 0 in most languages, including JS — and that totally makes sense. Internally. But "n of m" implies iteration over a sequence, and even with 0-based indices, if you have five items numbered 0 through 4, then item #0 is the first of five items, and item #4 is the fifth of five. There's no such thing as a "zeroth" item. Or stage.)

This is true for GH and HH on all platforms. Currently it seems impossible to complete the tower.
Wow. Well... that is just a stunning achievement in level design, then! 👍👌

At least currently — and I honestly can't say how long it's been like this, or even whether something changed or if it's always been this way... but I don't think so — the stage numbering for Champion Performances makes no sense.
The initial stage shows as "Stage 0 of 5", with the last one being "Stage 4 of 5", and you apparently never actually reach Stage 5.

Well, no, that would be silly, because apropos of nothing the post wouldn't make any sense. But you're right, given that the art is so clearly different, my comment doesn't make any sense for HH. Carry on!

Yes, but Guy 8 at this position would have strenght of 94,2, so he is strongest among them all. But now you need to calculate the guys' strengt each time when one of them is on double strenght position.
But you could just move him to slot 6 (or even slot 1) to see what his strength would be with the bonus.
Honestly I think you're making this more difficult/confusing than it needs to be. The update is good (IMHO), there's no real reason to need to know the non-doubled strength of a doubled character. Any* doubled-stats character is going to be more advantageous in that position than a non-doubled one. And if you have more with that pose than you have slots for the pose, and you're curious which one(s) would be stronger in the position, just try them all there (either one-at-a-time or by stacking top-row/bottom-row) and compare the green numbers.
* — (Almost any, sometimes there are a few with such crappy stats that even a non-doubled character would beat their doubled stats. But that's REALLY obvious, because even if you have them in the green-stats position their numbers will clearly be lacking. And besides, assuming you're not going to roll the dice on a Change Draft and you're keeping the low-stats character in the lineup, it still makes more sense to put them in a green-stats position where they'll be boosted, vs. putting someone else there who'll have the exact same stats they'd have anywhere else. The only exception being, like I said, if you happen to have more characters with the pose than you have slots for that pose. But then it's a competition of green stats vs. other green stats, the stats of the non-doubled characters don't come into it.)

OT, but... I can't possibly be the only one who calls the Seasons consumables ("kisses", supposedly) what they really look like: Mustache Rides.
Really? Just me?
Well, y'all are missing out, then. 😏

So if there are less than 10 Kisses, then after the restart of the Season there will be 10 of them, and if there are more, the number remains.
I believe that's right, Leagues works the same way. Every time it restarts you get topped back up to 15.

Updated stuck-at-a-barrier-floor stats, for the idly curious.
- 3 are at 1999 (so NOBODY's actually claimed the floor-2000 reward guy yet?)
- 3 are also at 1899
- 4 are at 1799
- 10 are at 1699
- 19 are at 1599
- 86 are at 1499
- 116 are at 1399
- 194 are at 1299
- 330 are at 1199
The remaining 235 players of the top 1000 are at some other floor between 1890 and 1168. Floors < 1168 no longer make the Leaderboard.

this should be fixed tomorrow after the update is added.
No doubt it was, but currently — at least for floor 1000 — it's true again, but organically. One of the current blessings is to Mythic rarity, and all of the floor 1000 guys are Mythic.

I'm almost at the finish too. Agree with you 100%. The plot and the guys from that chapter really suck. I don't even read the story, just click further and further, hoping for a quick end of this chapter. So far Plains of Rituals with Edernas was most interesting for me.
Unfortunately, so far the next world is shaping up to be a lot more of the same, even carrying over the single most annoying character from the Hero University storyline. But, at least it's shorter again, so I'm already halfway through it. Fingers crossed that the next (and so far, final) world is a return to form.

Yeah, that seems to be it. Though at least with Champions, it's pretty useless because the indicator never goes away! (Unless you get ALL SIX "tiers" engaged, then I assume it would. But I've never once done that.¹)
It could actually be useful, if it signaled only when an active challenge timer expired. (And ignored all of the other ones, that aren't blocked simply because you're at 0% and aren't currently engaging that Champion at all.)
Heck, even better they could SHOW the next-expiring timer there, like they do for Missions.
Edit2: Now I'm also wondering why Seasons doesn't show an icon, when you have unused Mustache Rides over there. So weirdly inconsistent.
