Hey supercell can we get some feedback on that since its really f-ing up gameplay for allot of your players.
It is a bug.
When you have queries related to bugs you use the bugs sub-forum, thats what its for. You may just find your answer there.
My bet its on the 7th since thats when boosts and probably theme will get reverted back
Am I the only one who hasn't seen this glitch?
Mine work completely fine and have attacked bases with both ground and air working fine.
what is this xbow glitch haven't noticed anything unusual
Is this the same category as the "the loot crisis" or is there really an xbow glitch?Quote:

Wish I would have kept the replay.
Haven't seen it..not saying your lying or anyone else. I just personally have not seen it on my end or the person I'm attacking end.Quote:

Loonioneers will definitely notice the bug as anyone in Crystal who Loonions will always pay attention to Xbows.
If I find a sweet base, I then calculate whether I'll need Spells based on if the Xbows are up or down. If up, I know I'll probably have to use at least 2 heals. If down, I could probably get away with not using any spells.
So this bug had really thrown my strategy in a loop as there is no consistency with how Xbows operate. It's very common and I notice it daily. Some in my favor, some against. So now I just assume all Xbows are set to air even if they are pointed down.
If you use ground troops, you may not notice the bug as any setting of Xbow will shoot you and you're already use to it.
Here is a video showing the glitch.

Yep, had my first hand experience of the bug in Champs... :mad:

Why can't you release an update or patch to fix all the issues from your winter update?
I understand you want to release new features or troops/defenses. But how about fixing something that is affecting everyone that uses air troops to farm or push, since that is affecting low level to your top 200 worldwide.
Im guessing you are referring to the x-bow glitch? They are probably working on it already, they just need time.Quote:

because undercover xbows > normal xbows
This is a real issue and needs to be fixed. It sucks for looners since there is no way to tell if xbows are actually going to shoot up.
it is hilariousQuote:

This strikes me as odd. A max TH9 has 6 archer towers that each do just as much damage to air troops as a lvl3 xbow plus 4 air defenses that each do almost 4 times the damage as the same lvl3 xbow with almost the same range, but 2 xbows pointed up makes the difference of needing 2 spells vs none at all?Quote:

I know some can't be fixed with a simple maintenance break but if it's something that is affecting the entire community then why not release the fix when you have it? That would shows us that you actually care about providing us a good gameplay experience, rather than having message boards blow up with post about the issue just because you want to wait until your next update to release troops and whatever else to fix the issue that is affecting everyone now and will be affecting everyone until you come out with the update.
To me that is not good customer service. But what do i know, I don't work for the clash of clans supercell dev team so I don't know what their priorities are.
There's a sticky on the bug here: http://forum.supercell.net/showthrea...4070-X-bow-bug
Fix won't be here till next update... I guess that'll be at the end of the Christmas boosts (so I'm not hurrying).
I dropped from masters 2 doing loonion to gold 1 doing ground attacks because of this bug. Supercell you have a lot to answer for to Gold 1 and 2 as I have completed over half my lego walls there, so much loot it is amazing
We have someone with xbow not firing when set to air.:( Not cool.:eek:Quote:
