Green/Red Display Error In Fights

Share:

In the old Fight Module, you can tell if your skills or your equipment helped you win or caused you to lose a fight by the color. In the example blow both my attack and equipment score are listed in green. This means I was superior in both categories.
In the fight below, I lost because my opponent had more defensive skills than my attack skills and they are listed in red. My equipment score is far superior and therefore listed in green but we all should know by now that equipment is a much smaller factor in determining who wins and loses a fight.
The new Fight Module does list skills and equipment in green and red but you will notice that yours are always listed in green and your opponents in red regardless if you win or lose. If I were to believe the color code in the fight below, it would have been impossible for me to lose as both my skills and equipment show up as green.
I was able to find this Zynga Forum thread and saw I wasn't the only one this was happening to. Cerulean Master states that a developer is looking into it. Most likely it is just a display error. Hopefully it will be fixed but the Fight Module is so busy most won't even notice!

Sorry for the late post guys, I guess I got distracted after submitting the report. 

A Developer is looking into the calculations.

  2. I haven't got the new fight page yet, but from everything i have read and seen i don't want it either. This looks like the final nail in the coffin for Mafia Wars. I have already tarted seeing the I quit Mafia Wars page invites rolling out & they all claim it was due to the new fight page. Good one Zynga

  3. And this hasn't gone away from the new screen, either (fighting completely manually):
