Is anyone else got a discrepancy in their friends list? According to av menu I have 93 but in game menu I only have 87? I've tried closing down and reopening but nothing.

Yes, same here. I have 99 and the game shows 96.

This happens to me constantly--the game incorrectly displays how many friends I have and how many invitations I have. I believe its just a display issue, as even when it shows me having fewer than 100 friends if I try to add more it won't let me. It usually self-corrects if I delete an invite or remove a friend, but only temporarily.

This is happening to me. I did a visual pass of my friends in the Activate menu versus the social (gifting) menu. I actually found two friends that I don't think are showing up (for me, they are 'Wong tung' and 'albysa'). I have seen where there are formatting differences in the names between the Activate list and gifting list, so I guess there could also be name differences, but these two stood out. It also adds up for me.. Activate says I have 94, gifting list shows 93, but one of them is Aura, so she doesn't count).

I'm going to do a full scan tomorrow and remove/re-add the missing friends and see if that fixes it.

I'm having this issue too as activate won't allow me to add new friends but in my game I only have 98 friends... My only thought was maybe old friends lost activate with the age issue.?. Or it's a glitch.

It's a glitch for me. I removed the above two users from my activate list, and my in-game list didn't change.

I followed that by adding two new people, and they show in Activate, but not yet in game. I will give it a day before changing it again.

It is annoying. According to Activate I have 100 friends, but the game recognizes only 94. That is 300 kudos I am missing because of a bug.

I just did a manual count. The game reports 96. I counted 96 and activate reports 100. I just cleaned up a bunch of names so the game might not have updated. I'll report back if I get 4 "new" friends.

I went further and removed 4 friends that hadn't signed in for 3 or more weeks, and accepted 4 invitations. I only got 3 new friends in the game list (and as such, only 3 rewards)

I get that, I do. But you're missing 4% of your friends. I'm missing 25% cause I only have 17. That's crippling. If I get up to 100, am I going to be missing 25?

I too am missing 4 friends (with Woz mysteriously missing from my list). Seeing that that I'm the third person that said they are missing four I'm going to SWAG this that everyone is missing 4 friends. They were probably stolen Harry Potter style and they will need to be rescued as part of a Tri-Skylanders Cup (quad-skylanders?) challenge as part of the Lost Islands update.

I was having a number issue as well and fixed it.

I wrote down every friend name (in Excel, so I could sort) using the "Kudos" screen. Then I checked it against the Activate friends list. There were people on the Activate list not on the Kudo screen. I dropped those bugged friends. Who knows, I probably did them a favor if it was bugged both ways.

Then I added friends 1 at a time first adding them in activate, then closing the game and reopenning. Then openning the Kudo screen to collect the 50 reward. Now my Activate and Kudo friends are the same.

Since I saw this happen, I highly recommend that when you add someone in activate you immediately go check that they show up in the Kudos menu. If they don't show up, go delete them from activate and try someone else.

I had not seen there was this thread on the friends list problem so I already posted my problem here:
//forum.darkspyro.net/spyro/vi...11&post=4655064

I'm missing 7 users in my friends list.
- brgmini
- D3Ni4L
- Paul Carroll
- Wong Tung
- MtLebo-Jason
- Mlenney17
- Kylie Northrop
I do hope it fixes itself. If it will not I will try Charred's method, delete and re-invite.

For a test I deleted a user from activate who was not showing in the friends lists and re-invited him.
He accepted and this time he is shown and I even got a 'new user' message and 50 kudos.

So apparently the check to see if a user is new is run on the in-game friends list.
Good for me as I did not miss out on the bonus kudos.

The weird part is that the difference between my Activate and in-game list hasn't changed and remains 7.

I noticed the difference and decided to make my own list and see who was missing. I removed the ones that weren't on my list in Lost Islands. I had 4 that were missing. I've since sent new requests but still waiting for a response. I also sent out more invites, this morning, and 3 of them were added to my Activate account but none of them are showing up in Lost Islands. I've given it a while, now, and still nothing. I haven't seen if deleting them and re-adding them helps, and I'd hate to just delete someone I just added. The people I just added and aren't showing up are Kylie Northrop (jamesandkylie1), fatman79 and fallen1966. Anyone else have them on their list? And for those I listed, do you see me on your list?
Wkgrandma Blue Sparx Gems: 596
#20 Posted: 16:37:46 27/09/2013
Yes I had fatman79. I waited two days for him to show up on my Lost Islands list. When he didn't show up today I deleted him for now. I also have Kylie Northrop, it took two days for them to show up on my Lost Islands list. I had a few more this morning that hadn't shown up for two days so I deleted them also- Ty-w, Mlenny17, brgmini, asphyxia. I feel bad deleting people but if I can't gift them it doesn't help either of us. If any of you are on this site please send request again and we will see if it works this time. I am keeping a spread sheet of both list to see if it changes daily. I will post if it does.
kluless3 Yellow Sparx Gems: 1131
#21 Posted: 16:41:59 27/09/2013
While Fatman79 does show up in game for me, I cannot get Kylie Northrop to show up.
Wkgrandma Blue Sparx Gems: 596
#22 Posted: 17:20:51 27/09/2013
I am also noticing that the friends added after the Kudos update seem to be the ones not gifting. I am suspecting I am not on their Lost Island list. I am keeping a spreadsheet of my daily activity. Gifting, crashes-related to if I have gifted or received a gift before trying, ect. I will post after a few days if a pattern shows up.

Kylie is also missing on my in-game list. Fallen1966 is in my friends list. Fatman79 I don't have.
For the complete list of people I'm missing see a few Posts above.

Obidawsn, I do not have you on my list but I just sent you an invite!

I just got done removing names that didn't show up on both my in-game and activate lists. Shouldn't we have 101 names on your in-game list? I have 100 activate friends + the built in account for Aura that totals 101. Oddly enough after cleaning up I had 100 names but Woz wasn't on my in-game list. I'm wondering if Activation isn't doing some form of replacement with Aura and one of the friends on your list which is ultimately lead to problems earlier in the week. I know for a fact I was able to visit Woz over the past few days. I'm not going to remove him and continue to monitor to see if he pops back up on my list.
Wrecking_Ball Green Sparx Gems: 367
#25 Posted: 21:17:39 27/09/2013
You are right.
I just finished removing and re-inviting the 7 friends that were missing on the in-game list, but now I still have a difference of one between the two lists, 90 on activate and 89 in-game.

So that must be because someone fell off the in-game list that was on it before.

And the fact that Aura is also counted hadn't occurred to me, so I actually miss 2 friends.

Once I started deleting old friends, I've gone from a max of 101 to a max of 100. Aura now seems to count as one of my 100, which is kinda annoying...

Maybe it is somehow tied to certain users as the 5 you had problems with are also part of my list of 7 problem users.

Edit: one of my problem users, D3Ni4L, just accepted my re-invited and is now back on my activate list but sadly still missing on my in-game list. Another clue it is somehow tied to certain users.

I am wondering if they are receiving my gifts. I send gifts to everyone on my list everyday. If I am on your list and you are not receiving a gift please post so I can tell what is happening. I hope they get things resolved soon.

Similar here. I've got a full list and I'm gifting to everyone, but only about a quarter are getting gifts through to me. That can't be right. ALL of the gifts being sent by players are clearly not ALL getting through, the same as not all visits to islands are getting through.

I think we players are making a mistake if we think we can tweak the bugs out of it from our end. These aren't small bugs. The game is crippled at the moment and I think it's just a matter and sitting back and waiting for the devs to fix their screw-ups.

I finally got my in game list up to 101. It'd be nice if I could send gifts without collecting them so I can easily see who's not gifting without having to keep track.

I've got at least 10 people on my friends list missing from my in game list. I haven't taken the time just yet to see who exactly they are just yet but I do hope that this bug is fixed. I am just under 200 kudos away from Admiral Thumback. |[ I could have had him by now if this weren't an issue.

Woz and wkgrandma - I receive your gifts and I send your gift (which I hope you get). The only issue is that I can not visit your island. I just get the error that I can not visit now and to try again later. And the little "3" stays beside your names at all times. There are a couple of people that give me that error at times but the next day I am able to visit them no problem.

I took the time yesterday to compare friend lists and deleted names not on both lists (such as fat man and Kylie Northrop). Today my lists are an equal 100 but that includes aura. I have managed to get enough kudos to get the admiral so am content to sit back and wait for them to work out the bugs.

I hope they get the problems worked out soon, until then I will keep trying to visit everyone's islands. I like seeing how everyone decorates them.

Ok now it's not adding anymore people. The game says I'm at 100yet my list at the gift menu say 93 and the activate list says 99. So not only am I only allowed 99 ( it was100 before the update) friends but it's not adding them to my gift list even though they are technically on my activate list. /sigh this is getting old specially when it seems I can't get more kudos because it crashes when I visit and getting one per friend/ day is painful when trying to get 2k kudos.

This game really keeps me busy but not in the intended way. smilie
Just sat down to compare the activate and in-game lists, typing nearly 100 names in excel takes some time.

These are the 11 players that don't show on my in-game list:

  • brgmini
  • C0lt
  • D3Ni4L
  • Glen
  • Kylie Northrop
  • mlenney17
  • MtLebo-Jason
  • obidawsn
  • Paul Carroll
  • Pici
  • Wong Tung

7 of those I deleted before and they accepted my re-invitation but unfortunately that has not helped.

So sadly I will have to remove these as it's useless since I cannot sent or receive gifts.
Just don't be offended if you're on the list above and get deleted.

Hopefully activision will roll out a patch to fix all the problems very soon.

Edit:
When returning to the game I was welcomed to a new friend on my in-game list; mlenney17.
And this is someone whose invitation I accepted 2 days ago.
Just goes to show that this new social update is really buggy.

Sorry I've been busy over the last 30 hour or so and haven't even had time to play, not less get on here. I noticed this morning that suddenly I had a new friend and it was fallen. Wrecking_Ball, I was thinking I didn't see you after I added you, but now I do. I have accepted a few invites an clicked through a few "new friends" in Lost Islands without paying close attention since I've been so busy.

I also just now got Kylie added to my friends list in Lost Islands. I'm not sure how they are figuring out when new friends are added. I don't have time to look it over and see who's missing for a couple of days so I'll have to get back to you on that.

So if you are missing me, let me know, especially Wrecking_Ball and fallen.

And is anyone having trouble going to my island?

Oidawsn, you're on my Activate list, but not my game list (along with several others). Fallen took a day or more to transition into my game, so I'll wait a bit and see if it starts to sort it self out.

I was one of the people you had that did not show up. I hope your delete of me and sending a request has worked. You have shown up for me on my list all along, but did cause an error when I tried to visit for kudos.

Wrecking I have about 18 people that want to friend me but no outstanding invitations on my end. I looked it over and I'm just confused, one list has my friends at 100 another 99 and now the in game is 95 lol. To say this bugged is an understatement. And I'm having trouble visiting just about every island now so who knows if any of my gifts are getting through. Hope the devs are working a fix because this can kill new players.

#50 Posted: 09:15:21 29/09/2013
Mariojedi, that's strange indeed. But what do you mean by the 2 lists (100 and 99 above), I only have one activate lists and one in-game list.

I can visit a fair bunch of islands but haven't kept track if it are always the same ones that are giving me an error.
Because visiting is such a slow process I don't have the time nor the appetite to visit every island daily. I usually I just pick a handful at random.

obidawsn, good to hear I'm showing up in your in-game friends list. Sadly the same cannot be said on my end, you are still missing on my friends list although I do have you still on my activate list.
I will just wait some more but for now I won't be able to gift you.

I deleted some non showing friends and accepted some invitations and now got 2 new users not showing in-game and only on the activate list:

  • mercurialGamer
  • Almeria
