Interesting. I guess we will have to figure out which Pokémon it doesn't work with then! Darkrai players should throw all kind of Pokémon into their decks so they can test.. .:p
 
Dunno if people have seen this but u cannot attack with Registeel EX if the opponent only has 1 Pokemon out and no benched Pokemon.

Not sure if these are exclusive to me or not.

When I redeem codes, redeem booster pack credits for a specific pack, or opens booster packs I get a wall of random text (most of the text is random characters most of it has random accent marks associated with it) instead of any relevant images or text.

When building a deck, card list and card tile does not work for me.

When using card carousel, when ever I drag a card up to the deck, the card does not appear in the deck.

When picking a deck, there are no visible options to pick a deck, i randomly clicked and a deck appeared as selected.

When searching the deck in game play, I don't see the contents of my deck and I am unable to click/choose anything.

That happens to me also.

Yeah i have the same problems at my nans computer.



EDIT and at my home windows7 computer with excellent interent communication cannot even load the game as it stalls of the logging in authenticating screen [it worked earlier but I have now restarted several times with no prevail]....... other issues include how u cannot go into chat channels in battle, extreme lag and screen freezing when moving between chat channels and a much higher general lag than the previous online game for my computer..........also after opening too many packs or spending too long on there [like 2 hours] an error mesage comes up and the whole game crashes. Other not errors but places for serious improvements include the chat boxes which are far too small.....and not being able to view the cards in ur collection in different sizes as well as the multiple errors in th agme play.

when editing a deck: I can "see" my Pokemon cards I have, but when I choose them, they don't "appear" in the upper frame when added to my deck. The "numbers" increase correctly so I'm assuming they are there. Trainers and Energy get "added/seen" as expected.

When redeeming codes: I have to "claim" them one-by-one. Be nice if to be able to claim all.
Also, if you redeem a code that's not the "last in the list" the "checkbox" selects the next available pack, but that pack is not really selected. You have to click it again.
Also, the redeem font colors in the "claim" list sometimes changes to whatever the "last" line is. For example I have a good credit (white), a failed code (red), then a good credit (red). sometimes the font color scheme is not being applied correctly.

Same thing happing to me, glad to hear I am not the only one who is experience this.
 
Perhaps Darkrai EX is glitched to give things free retreat only when there's a Darkness Energy on it? Has anyone tried moving the Energy to Darkrai, too?

Abundant Harvest doesn't freeze the game, so much as create an impossible situation in which the game cannot progress. After you use the attack, it tells you to Select a Basic Energy card. Your discard pile becomes highlighted, but you can't go into your discard pile to actually select the energy card, which causes the game to end up in a spot where it can no longer go on.

There have been many many cases where something like this happens. I have had the game come to a standstill afgter using things like Dynamotor, Ultra Ball and Random Receiver.
It's happened a few times now. The game just randomly decides to pause half-way through using a card and the game can't go on. Though you can still check discard piles etc. I assume it's the same state as Landorus' Abundant harvest.

It's a Pokemon specific thing. I've been able to retreat with Blend and Prism energies. I have also been able to retreat Dark Hydreigon with just DCE's attached.

The problem with Landorus is that it doesn't bring up the pop up screen for your discard pile, so it's impossible to pick the Fighting Energy, unless perhaps it's on the top of your discard pile already (and I haven't had this situation come up yet, so I don't know if that would even work.)
 
Not sure if this is a bug or not but I've been winning a few games based on time. And by time I mean I end my turn, it's my opponents turn for a probably less than a minute and then I win the game cause they ran out of time. At first I thought cool, but it's been happening quite often. Sometimes we'd be in the middle of a convo and suddenly the game ends despite us playing at the same time. Really odd.

Either a) they conceded b) they took 5 minutes on their turn and they lost or c) their game timer got to 0 minutes, or they had taken 25 minutes total.

Na all these events happened very early in the game. I've never been lucky to have a guy take over 5 mins and get kicked. It's always less than a minute. Really odd. Maybe they did concede but how come the message says they ran out of time?

Mew ex can't use emolga's call for family if its the only pokemon on your bench.

Edit: Mew ex can't use an attack from a pokemon placed on the bench that turn.....

(needs more testing)
Click to expand...

It seemed like it was just the last pokemon you place on the bench...But not sure

Also had terrible bugs with Forewarn, the ones I pick would sometimes go in my hand, and sometimes just get discarded?
 
Darmanitan ND is very broken. It doesn't take Gardevoir ND's ability into account, and it doesn't flip the extra coin for DCE. (e.g. 1 Psychic and a DCE attached with Gardy in play and it only flips 2 coins instead of 4)

Does Gardy work with anyone else or is it just 'MAX?

It definitely appears the developers overlooked "energy" vs "energy card", except for (oddly) on Mewtwo.

Really, the more I think about it, the coding should be as simple (and by simple I mean simple compared to writing it from scratch) as taking the section on Mewtwo's X-ball, and interjecting a line commanding coin flips and then 50h as the output. Don't know enough about the Unity engine to guarantee anything though.
 
I would consider the fact that my client still won't update as a bug. Two complete uninstalls/deletes and it still installs the old version again. It "remembers" my username (has it already in the "username" box, and has "remember username" checked off) and still gives me the "server unavailable" error. (I've downloaded it DIRECTLY from the Ptcg site every time.)

Firewall is not an issue, and internet speed is completely adequate.
