Favor Bug

May 15, 2009 2:43:45 PM from Demigod ForumsDemigod Forums

I've played several online games - Pantheon, Custom and Skirmish, and I always start over with 320 favor and no purchased favor items.  I've purchased several on single player, but with no result.  I'm getting a bit frustrated with not being able to use favor items online.  Any idea on a fix?

This is happening to me too.

I'm perpetually at 520 Favor Points.  I've played 10+ games (most of them wins) but that number doesn't go up.  Luckily a few of the items I had purchased before are still usable.

This isn't new, I am not entirely up to date on what they have and havent "fixed" but this isn't new.  Atleast we aren't in the negatives on favor anymore though...

Stardock should just be like "our bad, this is the beta...you have a beta cd and when we fix all the problems then we'll call it retail.  Until then, just think of it as a beta".  If this was a beta I would be ok with it, but when it's a $40 retail purchase its really testing of everyones patience.

I have this bug, too. Stuck at 155 favor points with one purchased item. I played 6 games yesterday, with 5 wins. Stats appear to be recorded properly on the website. But my favor never changes.

Odd before I to keep buying the same items over and over each match. Currently after these patches all my purchases have been saved and favor seems to be working at least for me.

Favor continues to be broken after several patches that claim to have "fixed" it. Can we get a real fix, please? It is terrible for balance that some users have nearly unlimited favor, while others cannot gain any.

Yep, broken for me as well. Waiting until wed. for the pantheon to come back up to see if I can gain from pantheon games.

Ya I noticed the same thing... sometime around yesterdays patch I noticed I sometimes started gaining favor in custom games, but other times I don't.

Has anyone figured out how to increase your chances of actually getting the favor points you are promised?

The good news is that once they fix all these bugs they plan to do a global stats reset and start everything over from scratch. So at least in the next go round we will all start even and I can stop getting in games where I am stuck at 50 favro points and my opponent has 12k. That is just fun let me tell you.

Why is this even be a problem in the first place? How hard can it be to query the database and update a single integer??

Stuck at 600...

Well the two times so far they kept saying it was an old db yadda yadda but yes I agree something simple to keep track of and it doesn't work.
