Duke and Excavation Maps

[Agent_L]

I didn't time it. But my screen faded as my device prepared to turn off due to inactivity a few times. When it is working normally, it goes to a neighbor within a few seconds.

Yes, but it's not working normally for last two weeks.

It works normally, when I click on any neighbor, I am there in couple of seconds.

But when Duke is present, there is total mess... Same here like @Sky Elf wrote

It's only when Duke's timer is stuck at 0, but he isn't leaving. If he is counting down normally, neighbor visits still work.

No, it's not. Haven't you noticed the amount of posts recently?
Server response time goes up and down. It's working instantly for hours - and then goes into 2-minute response time. Or worse. And then back. No warnings, no messages, no patterns. Just blind luck.
Almost all problems noticed by everyone here can be traced to "server did not responded in a timely fashion". Vanishing alliances, Duke bouncing back and forth, neighbors "not" loading.

It's sad, but we need to set lock screens to 5 minutes at least and get patient.

Yes, true. Last night Duke was on 0:00, and he just wont left my airport.... SO it was impossible to visit any neighbor...
Doing visits now. Works fine. Finally.

@Agent_L Like Sky Elf wrote... If Duke "leaves me alone", my visiting of neighbors works fine, anytime. I have fast internet, and works fine, anytime. At least for me, not sure how's with others. It looks this will continue till new upgrade. Ivan wrote that problem should be fixed with update. Hope for the best

I'm pretty sure the problem visiting neighbors is related to their recent attempts to change Duke's behavior, as it always and only occurs when his timer is stuck at 0. When the problem starts, his timer always changes to 0 regardless of how much time was left on it.

There was no changes to Duke's behavior on Windows Phone. He still comes once a week with 10 maps. Besides, I don't even have Duke's mooring mast on any of my support accounts and they all have same problems!

Everything server-related appears to be randomly broken and then magically unbroken during the day. Problems with Duke are just one of many. He's the symptom, not the cause.

Your internet is not a factor here. It's GI's internet that sucks. Updating client won't help.

It's not "Duke causes problems with visiting". It's "server causes problems with everything : Duke, visiting, ranking, alliance".

I have trouble believing that, as that would mean that they only have server problems on the days Duke is visiting my city and their server problems always occur at 5pm Eastern time and clear up at 8pm Eastern time. It seems too regular. I'd expect server problems to be more random.

Duke's timer got stuck at 0 again today. My neighbor visits were disabled during that time, but I had managed to predict the problem and complete my visits before they stopped working.

 

[Gt city]

Worked fine for me, did not wait till timer of Duke ends.
So I was able to do visit of all 12 neigbors.

When Duke timer showing 00.00, there a bug on Duke Shop, you have unlimited turn of Duke Shop items, when you finish buy than go back to Duke Shop, you can buy again, over and over again until you got enough items, you can Mystery Bonus for 8000 coins over and over again and you can buy adventure map by coins until you got enough maps to get 3 stars.

Some of us may want to save some coins for things other than maps.

I have the same bug but limited. After five returns the maps an bonuses I need are out of stock.
BTW I saw you are full of neighbors as per your signature but send you a request. Maybe opened one place.
