The USA Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 What were you doing (or trying to do): Conducting a spy operation What happened (describe thoroughly please): When you conduct a spy operation on any nation and change the safety level, you get "Greater than 50%" or "Lower than 50%" in the Success Probability box. In the past, you get a success probability range (like 75-99% or below 25%) in the Success Probability box, not the "Greater than 50%" or "Lower than 50%" text. I don't think the Success Probability box is supposed to just say greater or less than 50%.

Guest John Q Listener Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I believe this was a conscious change of game mechanics by Alex to try and make it harder to accurately estimate the number of spies a nation has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jax Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 I am closing the thread given the thread author's enquiry has been resolved by other user responses. For the record, Alex announced this change on 26th November 2019 via the P&W Discord (https://discord.gg/pw)... Quote Estimated odds for Espionage operations have been changed to display either "Lower than 50%" or "Greater than 50%". The reason for this is that some users have back-engineered using scripts and formulas to estimate any other nation's spy count with a very high degree of accuracy. Hopefully this change will mitigate the ability to reveal others' spy counts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
