Interesting, Kenny. I'm curious to know if this works.
I'm not going to use this trick if it works. I'd rather play when I can and want and don't care about the ranking.

I can confirm this because the same happens to me. I was 48 hours without playing ( 2 days that was impossible to connect to ubisoft servers) and when i can log in again i have received 10 bonus games. No more bonuses received apart of these .... Anyway i prefer the 500-1000 credits than 5-10 bonus games....

Like davidofv, I'd prefer getting my 500 credits everyday but ever since the problems with logging in, I've wasted more time logging in every day than actually playing plus I don't get my daily 500 anyway in the past week. I've accidentally stumbled onto this revelation (re: the multiplier games) because of server login problems and not because I wanted to figure out how to get my multiplier games.
I think what Ubi or Apple should do (not sure which side of the equation gives the multiplier games) is to just give all the available Multiplier Games on the first day of the season - problem solved.

No connection today. I almost believed it was fixed

... But then it worked like an hour ago and played all my games. It seems better, but is still not totally stabile.

Yes it's working again, maybe it was a one off thing that broke.

I just noticed we got an update about every month or so, but we missed one in October. Will we ever see another update (or AC III expansion)?

I just noticed we got an update about every month or so, but we missed one in October. Will we ever see another update (or AC III expansion)? I was thinking the same thing yesterday, as I thought we might get an expansion to coordinate with the release of ACIII. I did notice that they removed the "coming soon" pack feature for the supposed ACIII expansion in one of the last updates (not sure which one), which caused me some concern. I even checked the facebook page to see if it's been updated, but there isn't anything since the last update went live in September. On the bright side, the market connectivity is vastly improved, and I rarely run into OOS or app crashes in games now, so I hope they'll retain new players to the game (if they do get any; the most recent reviews on the app store are terrible).

The game is running just fine for me now. But I do face the same opponents again and again... Looks like there is only a handful of players left (which the servers have no problems dealing with)...
If Ubi is serious about this game they really need to release an AC III expansion fast to attract new players and raise some funds. Otherwise I'm afraid it's gonna be a slow death as we do not have any kind of competitive environment or tournaments that would keep the players playing.
Who cares if you have 10, 10k or 100k credits when you got nothing to spend them on...

The expansion will be a little boost, but it'll just peter out just like it is doing now. The game needs a real competitive environment, like MTG's sanctioned tournaments, where you know your opponents and there're real ladders and giving people that kind of motivation of sharpening their skills.
But yeah sure, an expansion would be nice. For a bit.

In my opinion, this shows the power of a community. To begin with they were very involved, we featured on the news ticker, we did free advertising with them, interviews, exclusive news etc. the game was alive and doing well. Then the management at UBI wanted to get away from this unofficial community and the interaction has been less and less. At the same time bugs increased and the players base shrunk. We never hear from the devs now, unless we officially contact them, and the game is at its lowest point. Coincedence?

The worst mistake they made was f'up on the server side. No game can survive being unstable for that long. Loses players, gets bad reviews, gets in bad standings with fans, make people less inclined to buy your other products etc. couple this with no communication is a pure disaster for a game.
Still, I'm playing a lot these days. In spite of all this. But I don't see a bright future for the game the way we hear nothing from Ubi.

Just played a few games. Seems like a lot of deceptive rush?

Just played a few games. Seems like a lot of deceptive rush? I usually get either deceptive rush (be it site or agent) or huge buildup to Ezio Mentor (with agent kills and animus reboots to survive long enough to play him) and there's not much in between. I'm waiting for the expansion (if it ever comes) to really get back into it, as I'm tired of seeing the same three or four decks coming at me.
