Spy bug?

Hello
I didnt find any topic like that so i made a new one. I dont know if it is a bug but it is very!! annoying...
I spy some guy and i have like 100x more covert then he has and i get ???
Can you fix that please... Think logical if you are 100times stronger then someone there is no way you could not win it is the same here at spying.
So if it is possible i would appreciate fixing it thanx.

Strike Action: 33,795,456
Defensive Action ???
Covert Action: 9,745,433

i have 140B covert this guy has 9M ... ???
Regards

Re: Spy bug?

the results of the spying is based much off of a random generator, so would be hard to change that...

also, it costs you what to spy again? 10 seconds and 1 covert capacity?

Re: Spy bug?

Although, you can see someone's stats once your covert level reaches a certain level above the person you are spying on, the specific details can be random. You generally need to spy multiple times to get all the information and even then sometimes you are just unlucky. I know it dosent sound fair, and it can be a little frustrating for me as well but i think it makes the game that more realistic in the sense that no matter how strong your men, they can screw up.

Not listening... :roll: :)
That's how it's supposed to work. It's not a bug, it doesn't need fixing. Read the reports:
Unfortunately, in order to avoid detection, they are not able to provide complete information.

Winning, as you put it, is getting your spies out alive and gaining some info on the enemy.
And besides, you get 3 covert turns every game turn... :roll:
Gone, left, no longer here.

Re: Spy bug?

I thought covert level also came into this, for the ??? factor, he may only have 9mill covert but if he has covert level 28 ( just no spies trained ) and you have say level 23 with 500k trained ( random numbers everyone ) then im pretty sure even though your covert way outdoes the person you spying, them 5 levels help.

You're pretty sure she said "Drink it! What's the worst that can happen?"

Re: Spy bug?

Its a combination of covert units and covert level, the two arn't independent.
