If this is a stealth nerf, I’ll be quite upset, because then instead of giving us more ISO, they’d be giving us the same ISO as before (adding SHIELD, removing gifts), and now forcing us to work to receive the ISO instead of getting it for being on facebook.
So net would be less ISO, more work.
I am very hopeful that it’s simply a bug and not a stealth nerf. Please let that be the case.
There’s been chat in the MPQ-related FB groups that this is apparently happening to everybody.
From my own perspective, I’m still receiving notifications in FB that I have shares waiting for me (worded, as always, that my friend has sent me a request) but there’s no sign of it being received in the actual game. I’m still receiving opportunities to share with my friends and, of course, I send the rewards but I don’t know if they’re being received. I should (but haven’t yet) take note of the names I’m sending rewards to so I can ask them if the gifts have been received.
It could be that I’m receiving gifts of ISO and they’re being added to my total without a popup telling me so. This is just a guess, though, since I don’t track my ISO level enough to notice if 70 more ISO suddenly appear.
Your point is a fair one, but it seems to be related.
I have to re-sync to Facebook every time I open the app now. When I get a reward that I can share on Facebook, the app still asks me to approve sending to my regular Facebook friends that I normally share with, even though I have told the app multiple times that it does not need to ask me.
Coupled with that, I get reward notifications in my Facebook feed, but when I log into the app, I get no rewards. Why? Because Facebook is not synced with the app any longer. Re-checking the sync to Facebook button does nothing to fix that, either.
That is related enough to me to accept the issues as directly correlated.
I’m going to just add to this thread that I’m also having rewards issue since R108. I’m having issues submitting a ticket so I just want it on the record here.
I will say though that I think it has to do with the actual game save and not FB itself. As a test I had cleared out my FB connection to an existing FB account, cleared cache and removed the app. When I redownloaded the app and synced with the account I had cleared out, it sent me about 7 rewards from friends on that account, but of course I now was back at square one with the game as this FB account did not have a game save associated with it. I then resynced my game with the game save on my other FB account and I got my progress back but no rewards.
