Re: Penny's Pursuit level progress not resetting again -- No first-clear rewards 🤬

@Perfume-shroom92   Glad you like them.  I know the helpful advisors are already overloaded with claims so just to make it easier for them to read and understand. 

@HenryThePear   I did not make any claim for my level 1 profiles as 1) I do not have enough time to play and 2) I do not think  they are ready for it yet.  Guess it is good time to spend a few gems I have collected over the year.

    Similar bug shows up again after the initial reset.  What happened was after I played the easy and hard setting on level 1, an adverts appeared and then screen frozen with a black image. 

    I restart PVZ2 and when I enter Penny's Pursuit, all levels were marked as played. I also check other profiles and they all had been affected.  (Photo below)

    I also attach the list of first clear rewards available here for players who are affected to know what items have been missed. 

    So for me, on the profile I played, I lost  4400 coins, 16 gems and 45 Solar Tomato seeds.

    On all other profiles I have lost the whole set of  first clear rewards.  

    I got the data from

    @eieio_31310 Mine is still broken even though I've entered with 1 device. ☹️ Probably just the fact we have the game on multiple devices causes it to go into a tizzy. I've not lodged any claims at all - TBH I've given up on Penny's Pursuit.

    @Perfume-shroom92   Now that I know the action of closing and re-starting of the PVZ2 App can cause the level progress to be auto-filled (as completed), this is what I plant to do next week, I will wait until it has switched over to the new quest with all 5 levels reset to not played, I will turn off the data so to stop the ads and any possibilities of syncing to the server.  Play and complete the quests before I turn the data back on. 

    If this works (probably just for one profile) then I will do a detailed report to Haem and ask if this can be fixed.

    @RogueYumei   To me, Penny's Pursuit is a good quest for gems and coins, the seed packages are just a bonus, this is because I already have most of the seeds earned by completion of quests in the past years.   Take Solar Tomato for example, it went straight to level 10 on my main profile and level 8 on the high profiles.

  • You can turn the wifi on to enter Penny’s and turn if off to play as usual 😅

    @PowerToss  True.  But once you have the menu on the screen, you should be able to play without data connection so this is my theory to test if the data from server is corrupting my level progress.  👿 

  • @eieio_31310 do you think you can be the guinea pig and met me know whether the progress will reset? 👿 Since this is a new update 👿 as suggested to me by someone~~

    @Perfume-shroom92  I have just played one round of the easy setting without internet connection, re-started the App, enabled internet, re-enter and it seems ok, I am hoping it will remain like this after I have done the other difficulty settings.  (My hope is the 8.01 update has somehow fixed this.... so fingers and toes crossed)

    @eieio_31310 What about the perks? Did they reset? Haem's comment about it on reddit was: 

    "Unfortunately not for a while. The candidate fix we have in mind for that issue missed the timeframe for testing so it couldn't make it into this update. It's still on our list."

  • @PowerToss Perks is still resetting... so nope, not fixed. My end of game froze after one of the levels. I quit and came back in and the progress is fine. So maybe you are right in that its a new update 😛

    I have not experienced issues with the perks, only level progress being filled up as played.  I think some players such as  @Perfume-shroom92  really unlucky to have both issues. 

    i.e. perks reset every time and level progress being auto-filled as played from previous week's data.

  • @eieio_31310 You know sometimes you can order double pepperoni pizza as an example... this is one of those situations... in the bad way xDDD perks resetting doesn't bother me much. Progress resetting however really does bother me... xDD and now that they fixed the issue so that you can only watch 2 ads per day for fuel, its even more of an issue... why can't they fix the level progress first?! Oh well.... xD

     Ads for fuel are unlimited. Just force close the app and it will pop up again.

    The level auto fill bug (PP levels marked as played with the progress from previous week) is back with 8.1 update 🤬

    Only the first 3 but that was what I have played last week on this profile. 

    The bug is back but this seems to be affecting some profiles and not all, so far this affects a high level and a level 1 profile.

    I estimated I have lost about  about 24 gems but looking on the bright side, there are still plenty for me to collect so I would not waste my time to trouble the Help Center staffs.

    It has been said this bug affects players differently, looks like you have the really bad one, I have heard there are Pokra seeds at later levels, hope you can still access them.
