im tired of recieving things in my inbox that i never actually recieve(i just recieved 4 banana bomb gifts but when playing the game i only had 1, and im pretty sure thats from yesterday)
if im putting money into this game, as ive already dropped money into playing this stupid facebook version more than once, then i kind of expect it to work right...
ive been an avid fan of worms for over 15 years... i played the original worms 1 and 2 on pc.. i owned the worms 3d on gamecube, i even bought an xbox just to play worms online, i own the one for gamecube, i owned the worms game for n64, ive bought almost every single worms game that you guys have ever created...
some of them are buggy, im kind of used to that, but if your system is going to involve me sometimes paying money to get weapons or things, then you need to get your **** straight... it is ridiculously off-putting to have inconsistencies rob you... its no longer beta right? then it should work properly...
im disappointed in you team 17.... very disappointed......

Quick question, but have you submitted any bug reports to Team17? I don't play the Facebook version but their community team seem to be pretty good at responding to bug reports.

also, i get tired of this game freezing up and wasting 10 seconds of my turn clock every time i hit the weapons button...
and yeah, ive posted about bugs, but it seems every week there are new bugs, and when ive posted bugs ive been met with doubt over their existence in these forums... telling me that problems i was reporting had already been fixed...
i know its a constant battle with a game thats always changing, and dont get me wrong, i love the new features, i live for them, but its just frustrating..
i still love you team17, im just frustrated with the game...

Sorry Hwhrhett, but this not the best way waking up team17, as they going to ignore this thread. But who said they weren't making progress? Who said they did nothing? They've made from this http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?t=57985 to this http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?t=63423. It's a very big progress, but nobody seems to care?! Worms Facebook is a game and you shouldn't compare with other worms games on controller or pc. I think they did an incredible thing with this game and they should be respected for that.
And again, I'll explain you the bug. You can only receive gifts 24 hours later of when you accepted the gift. You can send/receive a gift next day, but if it's not 24 hours later, you did it for nothing. It's with allmost all FB games like that.
And spending this game isn't in Beta anymore, yes, but I can name a lot of games that don't have online but could have it! And team17 already gives more for "free" then other games. For example, HHG and BB could easily be premium weapons, when you look at the strength of it. But I don't want a flaming war right now, so I won't respond to this forum anymore.
Happy Worming!

yeah, i know i was irrational when i posted those things, but i was just very frustrated with the game...
and i know its not the best way to garner a response, but when ive posted normally here ive often felt ignored and that my problems were not taken seriously...
and yes, i am aware of the issue you are talking about where the gifts only come in every 24 hours..... and you can only send 1 every 24 hours...
THIS WAS NOT THE PROBLEM I WAS HAVING.. i was genuinely not recieving gifts for days at a time.... of course everytime i posted about it i was treated condescendingly and they told me the same thing you said here more or less...
but i dont care about that anymore, because that problem was fixed a few weeks ago and went away...
i DID solve my problem tho, i was looking through all the old posts and saw in one of them that someone recommended running it in full screen mode... THIS FIXED ALL OF MY PROBLEMS. how come nobody every suggested this to me? lol. not only that, my girlfriend and several of my friends began playing again now that we had the revelation that EVERYTHING WORKS AMAZINGLY IN FULLSCREEN!!!!
sorry for losing my cool, but it just really sucked for a while.. now i run it in full screen mode, and it runs so incredibly better its amazing...
P.S. run the program in full screen mode should probably be the first thing everybody should try, lol
