We have some news regarding the Día de los Muertos Event today.
First of all, we're sorry about the issues many of you have had with the event. We know losing progress on a challenge can put a real damper on your enjoyment of an event like this. The Civil Evolution and Necropolis challenges in particular have been reported as losing progress, while others say they have completed all challenges and unlocked Catrina, but are not able to use the Avatar. We have been following your reports and investigating the issues.
The good news is that we believe we have identified how to fix these issues.
The bad news is that we will not be able to deliver these fixes until mid December.
Since we could not fix these problems before the end of the month, we are extending the Día de los Muertos event until December 21st to give you time to make progress both before and after the patch releases. We know it may be a bit strange to have a Day of the Dead event running in December, but we want to make sure you've had a chance to complete the challenges in spite of the technical issues.
EDIT: For Clarity on the Patch and Rewards
The rewards will be given to anybody who has participated in the event before the fixes. When the patch releases, anybody who has made any progress on the challenges will receive the rewards. After the patch, normal challenge tracking will resume to give anybody who had not yet played the event a final chance to give it a shot with the progression bugs (hopefully) resolved.
And don't worry if you can't finish the challenges now or after the patch. There may well be other chances to earn Catrina and the other rewards in the future.
Have fun,
- The Amplitude Team
