Post-patch game screen bugs

Simmo13 · 12-18-2018, 04:41 PM

1) Takeaways and giveaways still being described as "giveaways" on highlights scroll.
2) Misconduct penalties still counted under "power play opportunities" in stats and box score. Surely this isn't right? Apologies if it is!!
3) Although the rink doesn't disappear after goal is scored, if you change to "many/average/few" highlights settings, the rink appears randomly, bottom centre of the screen and obscuring one of the goalies, then the clock stops and play by play continues until it catches up with the highlight scroll. The rink then disappears.... It's all rather confusing frankly.

First two are still on the bug list, not fixed yet. #3 is new, though, we'll take a look and try to see what's going wrong there.

STILL a lot of blank pop up screens (after penalties)

Actually #3 isn't new, I thought that I'd reported it at the same time as the "disappearing rink" but I may not have done.

Yeah, looks like you did, although it was just on the many highlights setting and not the others - it's definitely happening to them, too, I checked it when I updated the bug list.

Although the rink image is now at the left hand edge of the screen during "highlights" the image still appears randomly, the clock stops while play-by-play catches up etc etc. What's supposed to happen with settings at "many/average/few highlights"? Is it that the number/frequency of incidents on the scroll decreases or is it that the number stays the same as on "full" but the representations on the rink image decrease?

I have to say that the play-by-play is also confusing....successive comments like "Slattery tries to clear it round the boards" then "Slattery stops the clearing attempt" don't make much sense to me.

The clock stopping is intended - in the highlights modes, the game is essentially stopping at the end of the highlight and showing you a replay of what just happened.

Just got a blank achievement pop-up also.

Just in case it's not related to the dark skin, any idea which achievement it was? You can see the list of which ones you have on the Achievements tab of the start screen.

I have only received two achievements since dark skin was released. "Upset!" and "The Guarantee". Thanks Jeff

Can you upload that save? I've seen nonplayable teams get stuck on vacation, but doing it to your own team ahead of schedule is another thing entirely, I'd really like to get a look at what happened there. Uploading instructions are here.

The blank pop up after penalties bug is still there. I'm non a programmer but why is this bug so hard to fix? It's not only a cosmetic bug because sometimes after a blank pop up sceen, the game freezes. Please FIX IT!
