Bug Friend Sorting on Leaderboards is BROKEN (video demo included)

[Palmer Eldritch]

I won't buy any DLC until my Friends leaderboards are back...

13 in the beginning of July and 14 in mid-July.

I really hope they aren't waiting until then to update TPA.

I'm guessing they are going to be busy with E3 for quite a while.

PS: I went through and deleted most of my PSN friends and it didn't help.
It still shows the same initial problem.

As a game update come usually with new content (new table pack, or for the last update, Season pack offer), I think we'll have to wait until mid-July.

Is it possible that this isn't a problem with the game but rather something the FS server is doing? If it requires an update to fix it might be well after July's offerings as I'm sure that's already been submitted to Sony.

Glad to hear this isn't just me. All my scores are there in the normal leaderboards, but under Friends I get the "None" as well, on both PS3 and Vita versions.

Not that it matters, since I'll never be first among the pinball wizards I have for friends... but still, comparing scores was why I added them to begin with.

Well, the Leaderboards became messed up at the exact moment the PS3 version of TPA was updated to 2.11 so I would have to believe it's in their frontend code.

They probably changed too many variables and didn't test it with real world settings (multiple friends).

Well then don't expect a fix before September. *scuffs up big cloud of dust with toe of shoe*

still broken... still frustrated.

still broken... still frustrated.

So, so, so frustrating!

Now that E3 has wrapped up I expect them to give us an update on this.

Like they update us on everything else?

Regardless of what was or was not said on FarSight's Facebook page, this forum is not that page, so leave the personal attacks out of it, please. I won't ask nicely again.

All the reports about malfunction of the software we paid for (and want to love) are fact based. What's your deal with "personal attacks"? Can't we criticize a company for their product and get feedback what's acknowledged and how it will be fixed and when? I won't post nicely again. So am I terminated now... Then, well, thanks a lot.

P.S. Your time would be better spent fowarding this thread to your customer support.

I don't think Sean DonCarlos has his own personal customer support. This is the Pinball Arcade FAN Forum. It is run by fans for fans. It is not a FarSight owned forum.

That post was referring to an earlier dust-up between some of the members. Criticism of FarSight and TPA is permitted as long as it's the constructive sort.

Do you think any of the Farsight team has seen this thread?
I see them posting from time to time (Mike to be exact) in other threads. I really wish we could just get a quick update on how this is going and how/when it will be addressed.

I know they are very busy with iOS/Android, and now PS4 work, but this is a very important aspect of the game.
I used to really enjoy playing TPA and since the bug I went from playing this nightly to only loading it up to see if it's been fixed yet.

Finally, the Season Pack update have been released in Europe tonight (1.09 version for us).

And... like for the north american players, friend leaderboards are now broken too!

One slight difference though: only my personal highscore is displayed when I select the friend filter, none of my friends' highscores.

"Would you like to purchase Season Pack 1 ?"

Well... let me think... Lag + broken friend leaderboards = NO BUY!!!

Period.
