Jungle Wars: Kong chat issues

Over at Kongregate, a strange thing is happening to Jungle Wars players. When they log in, they do not see the Jungle Wars public chat room. Instead they are put into chat rooms for Atlas Park or Chatmasters.

What's odd is that there is no game called Chatmasters or Atlas Park - these are pure chat rooms. Kong should default game players to game chat rooms but that's not happening here.

There is no reason we Junglers could not use those chat rooms to talk to each other, but they are very crowded and the chat is horrible (childish and idiotic - so very distracting). My assignment to one room or the other is random.

Here is how to get into Jungle Wars chat when you log in. First, click the gear (or sprocket) on the top right.

Click "Change Chat Rooms." You'll see your game chat on the list.

Select "Jungle Wars" and done! Bit of a nuisance, though.

Jungle Wars: Disagreement on instances

PollyShore of ArmorGames disagrees with this post.

Let me separate out the hope from the fact. I hope but don't know if the game's bugs are fixed at the developer's site,  tensquaregames.com. I will find that out by playing there some more.

In any instance, I have found that the early stages of the game are more stable than the later stages. I am in the early stages at tensquare.

As of now, my experiences at the developer's site are far superior to those at Armor or Kong. Everything has been perfect. In fact to reply to Polly on Armor, I had to make five fiddles to get my response into chat.

This does not mean she is wrong or that the game is not broken - it only means that I am having a great experience so far.

I also have a proposition: if we Kongfolk and Armorites were on Tensquare and complaining there, it would have more impact.

Let me also suggest, after 15 years on enterprise software, that the hosting parameters set by Armor and Kong have major effects on how we experience the game on their third party sites.

As always, your comments welcome.

Jungle Wars: A few surprises at Tensquaregames

Today, I neglected my Outlier clan duties at Kongregate for several hours, opting to play Jungle Wars on the developer's website (tensquaregames.com).

I discovered some things that would surprise those who play on Kongregate and Armor.

(1) The play was the most stable I have experienced. After three hours, there were no OOPS errors, no screen freezes, no jiggly screens, no mouse pointer mapping errors. When on Kong or Armor, I thought these might be Flash errors on my box or server issues at the host. At the parent site, everything worked as you wanted it to. Note: there is no way I could ever play a stable game of Jungle Wars on Armor or Kong for three hours. Not even for one hour.

(2) The chat was entirely in Polish today, although on other days I have seen bits of German now and then. I can't read Polish but I can spot the number 11 and saw no reference to (Totem) 11. It made me wonder if there was a Totem 11 issue on the hosted sites but no such issue on the parent site (tensquaregames.com).

(3) The parent site (tensquaregames.com) does not offer instant point-and-click access to Jungle Wars. You have to scroll through many of their games to choose the one you want to play and Jungle Wars is far down on the list. This suggests that it is an older game. It supports our Kong/Armor suspicions that is has low or no development priority.

(4) Let me repeat that in 3 hours I did not reboot. That is impossible on Kong or Armor. (Moreso on Kong than Armor, however.)

(5) The playing screen on the parent site has an unusual feature. Take a look at the upper right corner.

Support! Wow. You can enter complaints in the form that comes up when you click SUPPORT.

I think this is where we have to make our complaints -- if they even apply to the game (rather than the third party host). Not on Kong, not on Armor, here. They ask for your email. Maybe you'll get an email response!

Be polite. They may have no idea of our frustrations using third party distributors of their games.

My Tensquare experience makes me wonder if upgrades and patches on third party sites (like Kong and Armor) cost the developer money and are postponed or canceled for that reason.

(As always, your comments welcome.)
