Worst Update Ever!
Out of all the many great suggestions made by Players on the many different platforms which the game designers have chose to ignore, they come up with this latest update which makes the game worst t...

I agree. We love to chat and for war the chat is indispensible.
This seems like a bug to me. I can’t believe anyone thought this was a good idea.
This is like one of pics “the longer you look, the worse it gets.” The more I look at this update situation, the worse it gets.
So, on the arrow that you have to hit to expand to the second row of buttons, a little red dot appears when something within the submenu wants your attention. The design challenge (gets sent down there on 11” iPads) will cause a red bubble on the arrow, and so will the war button for the entirety of the war/monster presence when you have attacks to throw. This gave me a bit of hope that as long as there’s nothing else going on, that little red bubble will at least let me know that there’s a chat message.
Nope! It will alert you for all kinds of useless crap, but absolutely refuses to let you know there’s a chat message.
Wth.
- @trebor8827 They certainly could have programmed the red notification button for new chats. Total fail.
I do not understand messing with something that was NOT broken! I've now been playing over ten years. I have seen many changes. This is the worst!
My whole team uses chat for almost everything. Please bring it back to the way it was!
As long as I am complaining... I am having more trouble reading the screens. The writing on the info screens, (Comp task screen) total number you have/total numbers needed screen. Everything is light blue (pretty) but I now have to have a magnifying glass to see it on my extra large iPhone. Please put the letters/numbers in black. Not everyone has perfect eye sight anymoreI can understand the issue they were “fixing.” They wanted to add more buttons, and for whatever reason, the UI considered the button capacity to be limited to 6 across on the largest resolutions, and evidently 5 on smaller. The CoM button actually didn’t even exist on some devices (iPad Pro 11”, for example, yet it showed up on 12.9” iPads and my iPhone 14 Pro Max) due to this albeit arbitrary constraint.
So, when they decided they wanted to add more buttons, this “expandable” redesign must have been their quick-witted solution to the barely existent problem; a good idea in theory, perhaps, but put into practice very poorly.

I agree, but I have to say here, EA has been responsive and dependable for years. I'm sure they will fix it. If not, we will all keep writing. Hiding the chat behind a button is a clue that the designer does not play the game. I am thinking they will fix it.Everyone: If you haven’t yet updated your game, now might be a good time. Our feedback has been received and an update has been released.
Fair play - the latest update has fixed the problem mostly. Thank you for listening EA - that gives me some confidence about the future.
