Hello there,So today I did twice receive notification about Credit Heist Event, but it is nowhere to be found in the game and restarting app did not help.Could You set it so that notification appears only when you can actually play the event or is something broken?

I just received a notification the credit heist is back but it's nowhere to be found.A bug maybe.....?

Yeah same issue here. Melb here

So it isn't happening more or less frequently. It might be on a Friday this week, then a Monday the next. Only three days removed. But the following week it happens on Thursday. 10 days apart. Still weekly. Just irregularly weekly.

This is short of 6-12 days.Here is a direct copy/paste of 6/24 developer update."What’s coming next week?There will be a new event that we’re aiming to have go live on June 28th (please note that this date could shift slightly). This will be the new Credits event that we had previously mentioned. Here are the details and requirements:Requires 5 ScoundrelsThere are 2 versions, level 50 and 70.You may complete each version 2 times, which will give you a total of 1 million Credits.This event will be random when it returns, but we’re aiming for it to be at least 1 day a week and during a weekday."Was it stated elsewhere that it would be 6-12 days? I've not seen anything but "at least 1 day a week" posted anywhere.

Usually credit heist launched based on your local time, which is why we usually find out about it from forum or guild members in the eastern hemisphere. It seems something went wrong this time and that didn't happen. I would expect it will be fixed by the next time and some resolution figured out for this time as well.

The double rewards were announced very late for us as well (east coast USA). It was later addressed by making it last for a full 48 hours from launch time for everyone.

As for the rest, it seems to be based on loca time for the dev team in west coast USA. This does result in some weird timings for the rest of us.

Hiya!
The way the game is set up events start at local times. So, for example if an event begins at 12pm on August 24th It starts worldwide for that time regardless of region. This means other regions will see it first before others.
This event wasn’t intended to run today, but the pop up announcement auto submitted to players, so our team decided to push the event. If we turn on an event when it was meant to be off, players may not see the event for its full duration, see it longer, or won't see it entirely. We can understand how frustrating that can be, but will be pushing the Credit Heist event next week which should be running over two days time.

umm a guild mate in the US just posed 40 mins ago that Credit Heist is up, but down here in Australia I can can only see Emperors Demise and Training Droids. I have been checking every thirty mins since I work up 4hrs ago.

He is on IOS and I am on Android

Is there something else going on that is not intended?

also why next week? I need the credits now for Emperor's Demise :) ... and I have already spent a bunch of cash buying packs and extra crystals for farming, so I was counting on at least 1 heist before ED closes in 4 days

So those in Australia miss out? This is more than frustrating.

Wow. That really is an awful response for players in New Zealand. Basically you're saying "You missed it this week, tough luck".
