**UPDATES TO ENLISTMENT GIFTING EVENT:**
To prevent exploitation, we will prevent new Accounts from being able to Gift enlistment crystals. We will also be taking action on those who are using 3rd Party Sellers, Bots and other farms to gift themselves mass amounts of Enlistment Crystals. Lastly, we will be adding an expiration timer to Enlistment Crystals. All unopened Enlistment Crystals will expire on Oct 18 @ 17:00 UTC. For more information, please see this post: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/346104/updates-to-enlistment-gifting-event
**KNOWN ISSUE**
We have adjusted the node placement of the new AW maps to better allow path traversal. As a result, defender placements have been reset. Please, take a moment to re-place your defender setup. We will be pushing out a message in-game shortly.

AW search times

So something was clearly changed in the search parameters without an announcement. Searches were always capped at about 3 hours and this week we have seen many searches in the 5-6 hour range. Can we please get some clarification on this matter as it makes it hard for alliances to keep their normal AW schedule and plan around the multiple time zones of their members.

    Agree with OP - something was definitely changed - 6hr search times are ridiculous and not necessary for a mobile game. Not only do we expierience the typical kabam lack of transparency, but their lack of concern of our time that we have to waste arranging our normal lives around a mobile game...please change the parameters back.

    What you mean is

    "please change it back as it's now harder for the top alliances to avoid each other by planning their search times"

    yes all those pesky tier 3 alliances that are getting 5 hour searches are real jerks...

    Seeing almost 7hr search times now which jeopardize our ability to have 3 wars per week. Eliminating a war each week due to a ridiculously extended search times should not be an intended AW change. Please look into this and get back to us.

    That's exactly what he meant...man you decipher stuff so well. I guess that's why the OP wrote something else...

    And let's not forget losing a war a week cuts into our loyalty reserves, which feel kinda choked lately thanks to more and more map 6 having to be done to compete for the top spots...

    Any updates on this issue? Are 7 hour searches now the normal and are we relegated to only running 2 wars and losing out on a third war and rewards?

    Need to know if this change was intended or another bug that needs to be looked into. We're also seeing back to back matchups with the same alliance. That's another change after the most recent AW update.

    Hey there!

    I'm really sorry for the late reply on this one. D: We're not always able to get to every post right away, but we're looking into this and will have more information soon.
