Re: Dice City Roller HD

My Pogo buddy and I figured out how to fix the problem of players not able to join a host player's games in Dice City Roller HD.

The pictures attached show the process from join a game through to entering a security code for private games.  The  games I play with my friend is what I'm speaking about though I'm sure it's pretty easy to fix for all situations. Here's an explanation as short as I can make it.

1. Navigate to Dice City Roller HD via main menu and click PLAY..

2. Host clicks to HOSST GAME which takes them to CREATE GAME so they can set up whether the game will be public or private and whether there will be an AUCTION. They then click HOST GAME on that page where the host can see who's joined the game already and wait for others.

3. Here's the tricky part. When players click JOIN GAME they get taken to the FIND A GAME page listing all players online in two sections - GAMES and FRIEND'S GAMES. At this point the players need to make sure their FILTERS settings match the host. The FILTERS setting is located on the left side of the game above all players games currently created. The FILTERS settings of all players must match the host's settings for whether game is private or public and if the game has auctions or not. The settings must all be the same for everyone now.

4.  Once all players intent on playing the host's game the host takes it from there.

I hope this was clear. Who knew the settings were the culprit. I hope this helps everyone currently frustrated as we were trying to play together for weeks.

Again, the attached game shots are in order for a visual aid.  Happy Gaming!

    this icon is not me and I've been a player for 16 yrs (NO Newie) so icon is not mine!!! I only play om pogo.

  • The DCR tables under Friends still does not show even when the filters are correctly set by the Host of the Table and our friends trying to get in.  Our computer settings/diagnostics do not matter as we can get into Bowling Tables set - under private with specific setting with no issues whatsoever. SO obviously it's something that is in the programming code.

  • If you fail to set the right filter from public to private then you likely will get stuck in a loop. I play private games with a friend every other day or less. You will need to log out then into the game again. The rub here is that Join Game filter needs to set to the same kind of game - public or private - for all participants. If you're still not able find a friend go back to Join a Game switching from the default public to private or whatever matches the host setting of public or private. Note that you'll have to do this every time you log out of then return to play another session. There have been times when even this doesn't work. So far last week and this week we're able to log in for two without incident.

    Just key takeaway here is that all players wishing to play, no matter if it's up to 19 additional players, once their filter of public or private games needs to match the host's.

    It's been tedious to get to this point but we played three of the last four days and it worked right.

    This is the 10th night in a row NONE of us have been able to play Dice City Roller in our private room.  We have been playing as a group since the game opened and YES, all our filters MATCH 100%!  We have been forced to play in public rooms as a result of EA/Pogo refusing to fix the bug in this game.  We can play in our private room just fine for a couple of weeks and then BAM, no rooms available and then a day or so later, it starts working again.  As I just said, it has not worked for TEN days straight now and to make matters worse, tonight, there are NO public rooms available to play in...not a single one!

    2 weeks with NO private rooms available and numerous complaints sent about this issue via email and to the Forums.  All we get back are the usual auto-bot responses telling us to clear our cache, switch browsers, etc.  As if dozens of people all have clogged cache's and deficient browsers!  Thankfully I will finally have time tomorrow to file an official report with the B.B.B and then maybe they will actually READ the complaints and bother trying to understand the issue instead of ignoring us all.  And, after I post this latest complaint, up will pop the "Survey" asking how they did, what a joke.  I have answered a half-dozen surveys telling them I am dissatisfied with their lack of response....and they ignore that too.
