Android Is there a reward for discovering and reporting game bugs？

[flyhores]

Suddenly I found a really reliable BUG in the game，Did the report find that there will be a reward?


Although the title is Android, I think it is full platform

I don't think so but there should be a way to report bugs and a "bug bounty" where you get reworded for reporting a legitimate bug.

Then don't say it. Don't say anything

I found a bug, there's no adds on Windows

Yes there is - 2 weeks of free emails with Support.

And that goes into another issue. How they handle bug reports. Those to have to be screened for things that aren't bugs but are presented as bugs, duplicate bug reports (user A and user B are experiencing the same issue), and where a user might not understand how something actually works. And in communications, it not a client or server that can fail, but things in between such as a cable failure, or cell phone service being unable for a few minutes.

It's easy to talk about communication but there are reasons why a software company may not want communicate:

1) It could reveal proprietary or trade secrets. Those are golden in many companies.
2) Some things probably be beyond of many user's knowledge or may come across as being irresponsible.
3) The software company may not want to reveal about some upcoming development they are uncertain of. It hurt their credibility if they were doing things like announcing "vaporware" (see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporware ). Software development is a long, complex process with a lot of uncertainties.

I dit report 2 bugs in the past. Both by making a ticket on their website.
One time I got a "thank you for telling us".
The other time they actually rewarded me with 5 greens.
So you might get a reward. I guess you have a higher chance if it is a bug they do not know yet. If it is a known issue on their side, you will get nothing at all I think.
