Have all Chinese Players been Banned from Boom Beach?

[@星之秘语]

I am Chinese, Because of China's policy issues and Tencent's desire for Chinese players' money, it has created two servers, and our Chinese players are arranged into the new server

[@olivertan6271]

我刚看到，还以为是supercell主动关闭的，正准备弃游，原来又是鹅厂？

[@robertbaysinger1309]

Just like everything else in the world you'll have to deal with people whose ethics are questionable. Should all Chinese players be banned? No, but certainly anyone cheating should be.

[@Gund2002ClashFanNL]

3:51 yea its in dutch. 3:33 I will translate it in english if u wanna know what it says: Your current login methode is no longer supported in this region. Sign in through your Kunlun- or Tencentaccount to load your saved game. idk what a Kunlun or Tencenta account is tbh. Edit: i just see someone else did translate it xD

[@bayheli7118]

My clan lost 90% of members overnight. They are Chinese players. Similar thing happened several months ago in COC. Supercell created a new server for all chinese players because of CCP requests/ demand.

[@FMYou]

Also happened in Clash Royal and Brawl Star.

[@classy905]

Thanks for the update Zed. I'm glad to hear it's just a server problem and not the server splitting

[@jiligulu01]

I’m a Chinese player login through Apple ID before, but after the update, this login method was banned. But in normal situation, ios player can login through Tecent, and the old account will connect with the Tecent account automatically. But for me, it didn’t work, and I don’t know who I can find to report this situation. So, maybe I have to say goodbye to my account which I have played since 2015, really sad.

[@johnclarke4989]

I’ve got invites from uk task forces & there no players visible until you join 👍 great vid as per

[@frankg6502]

Lol Next time, first watch the whole video, then comment. Cheers!

[@CameronHarris]

Chinese players had many ways to log in, but supercell id didn't work. Chinese players would use several different login methods, which caused cheating. Chinese streamers would have 50 copies of boom beach on their devices, and they would play for people who paid them money. They apparently disabled these other login methods and want them to only use certain ones. The banned text is scary for these players, because most of them take the game seriously. If the servers split Warships matchmaking will be extremely slow.

[@Crispy983]

I play half assed. I don't try to be the best. That being said, fair competition makes better players. Those better players teach us tips and tricks. If you're like me and don't take the time to improve to the level that others are at then you need to accept that, not expect the game or other players to bend to you.

[@johan8008]

I live in Shanghai, China and Boom Beach is not available in the App store. Change region could fix it. People in China can't login due update is required.

A new thing I've noticed is tgat the game no longer closes when you minimize it and go to another app. So for example now I can go back and forth between a screenshot and a game without it having to reload.

Ok you had your rant and I will do a little of my own. When SC Boom Beach killed the forum, the opportunity to learn about bugs etc. The bug report channel on the discord is awful. They have a six hour slow mode applied. Only allowed to post once every six hours. Yesterday, I switched to my Hammerman defense base and repositioned the critters cannons. I had to move a few other items. Saved the new layout and tried to return to my main base. App immediately shuts down. Tried several times. Tried on my iPhone as well same result. So the issue is not device related. Loaded a second main base, did some modifications. Switched bases and when I tried to load the second base, same results kicked. Tried in-game help and that doesn't exist any longer. There was a time that there was at least a bot acknowledging receipt. Nope. Went to Redit and didn't find the bug report sub-channel you mentioned. Posted to the Discord Channel bug report. A person named CARSON. Who is a moderated asked if I could post a vid. But with a six hour wait time that didn't happen. Finally was able to post a low resolution 8 second vid that only verified that I spoke the truth. No feedback from anyone. Yes people are busy, but in the good all days on the forum, at least there was a section here are the bugs we are aware. I have no idea if my terrible experience is unique or widespread. So. Am not touching the boat nor the game in fear that something worse is looming.

[@zmot]

Just ask me. If you save a loadout with a trophy on the beach or with a trophy covering a mine, or with trophies stacked it corrupts that save location and causes the game to crash. You'll need to re-create that base and then save over top.

[@swiczdad4716]

Thanks. I read that trophies and decorations could be stacked and/or placed on the beach. I hadn't done either. But decided for experimental purposes to stash all the legends and diamond trophies in a base that I still had access too. Saved, crossed fingers and legs because I had to go pee, and attempted to load the two bases which previously could not be loaded and resulted in app crash. The bases could now be loaded. I re-added the decorations making certain not to touch beach or stack and all is well. i think it was that darn Chicken trophy. But in all seriousness, I did not relocate the decorations so not sure what triggered the crashes. Regardless, I am back whole minus those resources that were stolen from the crappy base that was the only one available.

[@Perplexer1]

11:56 Can someone please tell me what he is talking about here? You cant’t see what tribe a building is in?? Destroy button is not clear??

[@KarnageGaming]

What will be interesting is if they switch em to there own server. Eill they show up on our leaderboards still? I imagine they would. But just imagine if they dont. The leaderboards might for the first time in a long time have no cheating.

[@zmot]

the non-chinese players and task forces have cheated their fair share as well

[@KarnageGaming]

@@zmot lol i didnt know that. I thought it was the chinese who still had working cheats. Well rip to that idea.

[@Marc-qt7sf]

@@zmot don't know where you get that information. We have reached #4 in tf25 without cheating. Just play dx, you win some, you lose some....it's all in the game.... Chinese tfs sabotage ops with payed accounts. In other words if you dump 100 intel they pay you a dollar. The intel gathered is used for sabotage on spine for instance. They fill the tf before the next op with their own accounts and mini's.

Looks like it's SC failing at upgrading servers. Check the comments and/or my twitter. Upgrading normal Boom Servers took 3ish hours. Chinese servers are at 26+ hours.... If the forum post is accurate that is!

[@Hiro_018]

Boom Beach Bug discovered my experience: 1.Invisible Member / no member display. 2.Cannot join Task Force if your not get invited. 3.Diamond packs and boosters on shop get multiple display 4.If you stack out your decoration and change the base you will Not be able to load the base How can this be happen ? 1. When one of our member want to jumper to other TF. But there is another same problem when you check other TF too, i think it just checking other TF problem. 2. Can't join the TF from JOIN buttons, but when i talk about it with other member on chat, there's someone join then i asked him how, he reply that he is using invited from someone. 3. Idk if this internet problem, but when i check the shop, Diamond packs and boosters on shop get multiple display "So, what is that mean? Multiple display? Like, what was that?". In the shop you can buy instan training/troops and extra builder but, it get multiple display, you got it? So there's the other display beside it which make 4 total display, it also happen to diamond pack from 6 to 12 display total. 4. So i was playing with my decoration, and then someone told me that you can stack your decoration and then i tried it 2/3 decoration stack together, after that I have an idea how it looks like when i stack all of them, all decoration in one place.. so i decided to change the other base to see clearly, when i change the base, the game told me to remove tree/obstacle and i was like ok. (but, in this situation i forgot to unstack the decoration before i realized) and suddenly i got notification "error, clients and server out of sync" and your game will be restart automatically. And i was like what just happened? After reload the game my base still the same. I thought it just same problem like when you attack someone and get error notification and reload the game, and it fine you can attack the other base. But not with this time, my base is not changing, it still 2/3 decoration stuck to it, so i change the 2nd base with no clear tree and it's fine, the decoration unstack and back to normal position, after that i change the 1st base that i got error notification, now i got "TID_UNABLE_TO_LOAD_LAYOUT_REMOVE_SOME_OBSTACLES" Hey, i never got this notification what is this? The game told me to remove obstacle, which mean tree on my own base right now. Ok i remove all the tree, and as i thought it still unable to load the base, so i got another notification like this "TID_UNABLE_TO_LOAD_LAYOUT" and until right now i can't change the layout.. Conclusion, i think it happened because i change the base with clear tree option with stack decoration and the game don't know how to do next, make the game error and think my 1st base right now is unable to load and make it permanent maybe... I hope supercell fix this up because if there's someone who make the same problem like me who didn't know how to do it, change the base 4/5 layout, can not access, it will make the player uncomfortable. It so bored to re arrange all the building with no edit base feature on boom beach, with this kinda bug i am really hope, that supercell will be added some new edit base feature to boom beach soon.. If there's another bug you found, just dump it right here so let the other player see this. I think that is guys, i am so sorry, i still learning how to use English in correctly, if there's any miss language let me know which part, and i hope i will reply it as much as i know...

It's so sad the VP and the warship leaderboards are own by Chinese. They have business and they pay to get first, around 900 USD.

None of us can get first in the leaderboard so it cut off competivity for everyone.

Not sure what leaderboard you’re watching but the warships leaderboard is far from owned by Chinese players and American players were most recently banned for selling trophies.
