Hi All;

My back-end changes are basically done, so I am in beta now on my development version.

Keeping in mind there could be some more obscure bugs (report them here!), if you're interested try it out at:

(Normal) http://qz.earthempires.com
(Mobile) http://m.qee.evolution2025.com (we ran out of aliases on our godaddy account =/ )

Finally did the signature thing.

I'm on an iphone 4s, and it isn't working.

I can't pinch and zoom it smaller.

I'll try it on my htc one x next, but when i am in the main screen, it is just slightly bigger than my screen, and i am unable to pinch the screen down to fit.

The pictures of the missiles are back? Not sure I'm a fan, as they're the only images on the country status page. Maybe if there were pictures of tanks, troops, turrets, etc...

There's no line break when you take a turn between the info bar (Turns: Money: Food: Networth:) and the turn being run. This is with the normal, not the mobile.

Yes, I did it on Safari as well, and it is slightly bigger than the screen, and unable to pinch down.

I believe this is an issue with iOS and not allowing mobile sites to be adjusted.

but you would know better than I would.

If there's a line break on the bottom, it seems that there should be one on the top?

it's not really important, just a difference i noticed. it had a line break before. having one is a slight aesthetic advatange i would say.

You can use your existing account.

When you log in to the new mobile it shows the news since the last log in from the mobile. The game thinks you're logging in for the first time, this won't interfere with log out bonuses and such will it?

Also logging into these domains logs you out of the main domains. Is this Evos attempt at hanlonging the game! Kidding btw, but yea, it logs you out of http://www.ee or m.ee

Yes, you can't be logged into different domains at the same time with EE... this is to prevent certian trickery which was otherwise possible when we were first building the game... to do with caching....

Current round: Dec 05, 2012 - N/A

neverending round? imaggers dream. :P

i prefer old showing of tax revenues etc, new is too crowded at middle.

also new clanpage doesn't show allies with different color and to get back from there needs to either hit back button on browser or goto gameportal.

Patience: Yep, I'm with ELK and Marshal.

ELKronos: Patty is more hairy.

Gallery: K at least I am to my expectations now.

Mobile on an IPad mini.

When you click on MAIN MENU to get the overview/news page, it takes you back to the portal. Tested it a dozen times. Also required me to log back in 5 of those times.

The current round... on scores? I think we didn't put the end there in case it changes, but could put it there

Tax revenues &etc haven't changed much have they? I'll compare in a bit I guess.

Clan page.... like clan ranks/scores ? Where are you referring to?

Brink: does sound a bit funny.... but requiring a login sounds like your cookies may be funny, as Xin suggested.

1. in clan page it said/says current round dec 05, 2012 - N/A in new version (nothing in old version).

2. new version numbers are in middle but texts are in their old places.

3. old clan page allies are shown in different color, new page all are in same color.

3.1 in new clan page to get back to country from clan page needs to either hit back button or click alliance-link at left (or goto portal aka long road) while in old could just click build etc button.

Main Menu + Go will redirect you to Portal.
Using the mobile site on Chrome using Nexus7.
Is that the correct behavior?

No, you need to clear your cookies so you aren't considered also logged in on the actual ee site.

Tried it on a newly installed Firefox for Android so I don't have cookies. I still got the same behavior. Clicking the GO button will redirect me to portal. Running on 4.2.1 on Nexus 7.
Can you create a dummy server where we can navigate freely?
