I am a fellow player, just to share my experience:
"It says if I speed it up that it will cut my time in half but it never did that once. Most of the time not even close. I am not sure what the formula is but it should be easy to take the amount of time it takes and divide by 2. This gives half."
- It says it increases speed by 50%, not reduce time by 50%.
- If it takes a car 1hr to travel 100km at 100km/h, increasing the speed by 50% to 150km/h doesn't not mean that the car can travel 100km in 0.5 hr.
"I also found that things are not updating correctly and I saw one result from a battle but then a little while later a different result will show up. it was weird I saw that at least four times where I lost armies almost to one troop left and then boom they are back to almost full. it usually happened when I arrived at a location to attack troops and the troops had a question mark and the question mark never went away. there were times I lost all my troops to a province that the question mark never went away so I never saw how many troops I was attacking. I am not sure if it is supposed to do that. I figured once I engage it would show this seemed reasonable."
- Fortresses at level 1.5 and above hide the troop information (thats why you see a '?').
"I also notice that the stats are not updating properly or quickly. I am not sure how quick they are supposed to update but when my game ended it gave me one set up stats while the stats in the awards area, the place that shows my medals, never updated with the same stats."
- This is a problem.. It is slow to update. The developers are working on it, but not sure how long it will take for it to be fixed.
"Here is another question I have. I won 1st place in the game but I was in a coalition and the coalition took first place. I did get that reward. My individual score was the highest and well over the 1000 for solo win. Are we not able to win in both categories?"
- Once you join a coalition, you are not eligible for individual win.
