  4. 05/09 - Obey Thanatos bundle has LG icon. (carried over from PTS)
  5. 05/09 - Sylvanus bundle wrongly labeled as limited frame/loading screen/jump stamp. (in-game-client: limited, on-website: exclusive, twitter: exclusive, EDIT: Website later updated to limited)
  6. 05/09 - HUD abilities bar still has 1 pixel underneath it. (present since Racer rumble patch)
  7. 05/09 - Janus still has broken shoulder pad animations. (present since patch that introduced worldwalker skin)
  8. 05/09 - Fafnir can still recall while transforming back to dwarf. (Even after this was explicitly stated to be fixed, still possible so long as you don't cancel ult early)
  9. 05/10 - Solid hornet AMC re-re-tagged as limited after being re-tagged as exclusive in the past.
  10. 05/12 - BGL split added to the season ticket after the first 3 matches have already happened.

  12. 05/13 - EU/NA relegations still not added to season ticket. (Being played today & tomorrow)
  13. 05/16 - New matches added to the season ticket are not only late (You can't vote on several of the matches as they've already happened) but also totally broken, as you can't vote on any matches, even ones that HAVEN'T happened yet.
  14. 05/19 - You can't get the weekend event's enigma chest if you already did 3 first wins before the event released
  15. 05/20 - Still have yet to have received my spring fling cutesy avatar chest... EDIT: As of posting this list today (5/15), I never received the chest.
  16. 05/21 - Razer zVault promotion is running again. Clicking the advertisement in-game brings you to the smitegame website page for the PREVIOUS zVault promotion where you can read that the promotion expires on march 31.
  17. 05/22 - HiRez failed to turn off the [enigma chest event](https://www.smitegame.com/roll-call-weekend/) that was supposed to end on Sunday. (22nd is Monday, event is still going)

  21. 05/26 - Today's MOTD is all star slayer Anhur and has an advertisement in the MOTD description telling players to "Get him now while you still have a chance!" (Star slayer Anhur was last available in summer of 2015)

  23. 05/27 - Today's MOTD (omnipotence) on Xbox is unplayable. Players are booted to the menu once they reach the load screen. This was apparently present the last time omnipotence was MOTD but was never fixed.

  27. June
  28. 06/01 - Music themes are currently about 50% broken. They only start playing at the beginning of a match about 50% of the time, and it seems like 50% of the time that they successfully start playing, they end up cutting out before finishing. The towerkill music rarely plays, I've never heard the backing, death, or enemy kill music successfully play. EDIT: Towerkill/player kill/backing/death tracks all now play properly. The intro music still doesn't play in Arena (Never has) and is also currently broken in Assault as of this post (5/15)
  29. 06/01 - There's a bug where the in-game store page will randomly change from the relic's upgrade page to the page showing all the relics. (When you go to upgrade a relic you click the relic, mouse up to the upgraded relic, then click purchase. At any random moment during this process the page may change to the store page that display's all the relics in the game, forcing you to restart the process.) As far as I can recall this has been present since at least the beginning of season 4. EDIT: Still present as of this post (5/15)
  30. 06/01 - Hercules skin from his adventure is listed as exclusive on the website, but limited in-game.
  31. 06/06 - LOTS of things broken today. An avatar is missing, a global emote is missing, 7 skins missing, 2 skins that shouldn't be present are present, gem store is broken, clan store is broken, bundles which shouldn't be available are, while a bundle (Loki charms) that should be isn't. Apparently this was all present on PTS. /u/iKinley made a nice list of issues [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6fl5pz/pcpatch_day_discussionbug_report_megathread/dij3bgs/)
  32. 06/06 - Redeeming a Ruby in the new adventure only gives 1 gold instead of 3000.
  33. 06/10 - HiRez silently changed the JT-6000 Janus skin from exclusive to limited.
  34. 06/20 - New update breaks the item store in assault. Players can't buy items when alive, and sometimes even when dead.
  35. 06/21 - Assault is still broken. Today's MOTD is 2v2 assault as well so that is also broken.

  39. July
  40. 07/05 - Players reporting to have received Star slayer Anhur, a limited skin, in their awesome chest after today's patch.
  41. 07/05 - Today's update broke Susano's passive. Movement speed is simply not given for each ability on cooldown.
  42. 07/06 - It appears the update broke Poseidon's 2. If it is at rank 1 the middle shot will heal enemies, minions, and even towers.
  43. 07/06 - Vulcan's turrets with the pirate skin are invisible.
  44. 07/13 - The Dreamhack Valencia stream was a production shit show today. The twitch stream was going down frequently and an excellent match (Trifecta vs NRG round 2) had it's final team fight after 50 minutes of playtime be missed because the spectator client crashed.
  45. 07/14 - Today's Dreamhack Valencia stream started with continuous cracking noises. 60 seconds later they brought up yesterdays bracket results. These results were also incorrect.
  46. 07/15 - Apparently you can't teleport to the left tower on chaos side of clash and actually never could since release.
  47. 07/16 - The season ticket has still not been updated to reflect the results of Valencia. EDIT: Updated on the 17th
  48. 07/18 - Today's patch introduces Multiqueing! Except MOTD because reasons? EDIT: Fixed in 7/21 hotfix
  49. 07/18 - Today's patch makes sovereignty, heartward, and witchblade only purchasable by physical gods.
  50. 07/18 - The summer of smite page in the game client doesn't have it's music implemented. Totally silent. (It had the Bob Ross page music on PTS and I guess they never got around to finishing the real music)
  51. 07/18 - Freya's 2 when used with her new skin uses the tennis skin sound effect. (This was on PTS as well as on the actual patch stream, to which someone on stream commented saying it would be fixed before live)
  52. 07/18 - The "Don't forget to start an event quest" reminder is present on every queue, even after you've selected an event quest. (This was present in PTS)
  53. 07/18 - Evolved items sell for double the price of their unevolved state (Lono's mask is now worth a net gain of 566 gold after being stacked) EDIT: If it worked. Lono's is actually broken. It doesn't do the one thing it's supposed to do, give you 400 gold on completion. So, even with a bug where it sells at double the regular sell price, you are still losing gold if you buy it
  54. 07/18 - The player's healthbar/mana/ability HUD is now partially off-screen (several rows of pixels worth of it are below the bottom of the screen, cannot be fixed in HUD editor)
  55. 07/18 - Rage is now accidentally nerfed. Before it evolved the player would get 1% crit chance per stack, and at max stacks get 10% extra crit chance (combined with base crit chance this put the finished item at 35%). Now the player loses their 5 stacks upon completion of the item, with the evolved state only giving 30% crit chance.
  56. 07/18 - The new void chest has a big advertisement in game showing Star scribe Thoth as a skin you can get out of it. (You can't, the skin is limited)
  57. 07/18 - Hastened Fatalis was removed, but it still shows up in the store.
  58. 07/18 - An item called "S4 shaman's ring" shows up under attack speed in the store, but cannot be purchased. Same for T2 of Hastened Fatalis.
  59. 07/23 - Console players who roll the holiday chest receive a coupon for the warlord chest, which is not available and immediately lose the coupon.
  60. 07/24 - It is possible to get the "founders avatar" in the PC client from the weekly chests. It's supposed to be console exclusive and it can not be equipped.
  61. 07/24 - Today's steam news post "Presting Weekend | July 28 - 30" Has 3 sentences, one of which is a link. The link is improperly formatted, and users in the comments have to provide the correct link.
  62. 07/26 - [Players are getting limited announcer packs out of the hero's chest](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6pmsr8/so_apparently_the_heros_chest_has_announcer_packs/)
  63. 07/26 - During today's NRG invitational stream production was incapable of establishing connection between HiRez aggro and any of the team captains.
  64. 07/26 - The cupid mastery card art is genuinely awful. [Ajax and Hinduman both agreed on stream](https://youtu.be/cRzAcWSR-vw?t=46m41s) that it was awful, but chuck couldn't confirm if it was unfinished or not.
  65. 07/30 - [Players can get the sol announcer pack](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6qg7ui/about_the_sol_announcer_pack/) (That is usually obtained from the season ticket) from the hero's chest.
  66. 07/30 - [Players can get the new Summer of Smite AP](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6qitfv/got_the_new_announcer_pack_from_a_hero_chest_lol/) out of hero chest.
  67. 07/30 - Celtic recall effect (Unlocked normally during the Celtic event at the Morrigan's release) can be obtained out of the hero's chest, EVEN IF YOU ALREADY HAVE IT.
  68. 07/30 - [Players can get the DEFAULT ANNOUNCER PACK](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6qg7ui/about_the_sol_announcer_pack/dkx3woa/) from the hero's chest.

  72. August
  73. 08/01 - Ravana Eliminator skin has been removed in today's patch and everyone who owns it was refunded 400 gems. Likely removed due to copyright. Probably not a good idea to actually use the lines "FATALITY" and "GET OVER HERE"...
  74. 08/01 - All players have lost all of their personal honor with today's update. EDIT: Fixed in 8/3 hotfix
  75. 08/01 - NRG Chronos skin has been made no longer available for purchase with zero warning (Even though the Ratatoskr worlds skin is still available for purchase).
  76. 08/01 - Summer of smite items were unpurchasable on patch release. Players would have their gems removed upon attempting to purchase them however. This has been fixed since then, but still worth pointing out.
  77. 08/01 - Players no longer receive a pop up allowing them to buy emotes in the match lobby. (This was present on PTS) EDIT: Fixed in 8/3 hotfix
  78. 08/01 - Season ticket Ne Zha skin is described as limited in the season ticket description, but labeled exclusive in-game.
  79. 08/01 - Ordo Aurorus Freya skin STILL has the tennis skin sound effects. (They said it'd be fixed before the previous patch released.)
  80. 08/01 - The Cupid mastery skin card art is still that awful card that even the patch notes team cringed at during patch notes.
  81. 08/01 - The Morrigan's 1 no longer makes a sound on any of her skins. EDIT: Fixed in 8/3 hotfix
  82. 08/01 - If you exit the game and relaunch, your jump stamp and level up effect reset to default. EDIT: Fixed in 8/3 hotfix
  83. 08/03 - Today's MOTD was broken for everyone for several hours (never goes beyond god pedestal)
  84. 08/04 - Today's MOTD is 5v5 random joust. Except [only the first 14 gods alphabetically are ever given.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6rjsw6/motd_is_working_as_intended_as_usual/)
  85. 08/05 - Just looking through smitegame.com news and TWO of the posts I see are: TEST POST FOR JAY - DO NOT PUBLISH - A description of the post. These posts are several days old.
  86. 08/05 - Referral rewards have apparently been completely broken since 4.7
  87. 08/05 - Today's MOTD is all pick conquest with draft/bans. However, you can only ban the first 14 gods alphabetically.
  88. 08/06 - [HiRez's treatment of OCE in general](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6ryix9/why_the_5_most_successful_oceanic_smite_pros_just/)
  89. 08/06 - Once again the motd is broken. Once again [only the first 14 gods alphabetically can be given.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6rxkde/motd_randomizer_on_a_roll/)
  90. 08/06 - The in game season ticket standings page shows the top two teams as blank & blank who are both 12-0. Has been this way since 8/1
  91. 08/14 - Just gonna point out that the triumphant chest reset timer has been off by 24 hours since the patch they were introduced in (July 18th, 2017). EDIT: Still present as of this post (5/15)
  92. 08/15 - Just got an avatar out of a triumphant chest that I already had. Good to know that's still broken.
  93. 08/16 - So Stone of Gaia was banned from the new adventure because they wanted people pushed off ledges as often as possible. Except they also changed stone of gaia's passive completely in this update, so it doesn't do the thing they said they banned it for on the patch notes anymore. Yet it's still banned... "Communication issues" EDIT: It was banned for the entirety of the adventure.
  94. 08/16 - Players can no longer reroll gods in assault.
  95. 08/16 - The remaining time to tip countdown is now broken. It's always stuck at 0:00
  96. 08/16 - Player names in party/lobby/clan chat windows are often blank. Present since last patch.
  97. 08/17 - Unnoted change/serious bug: When Artio activates her cripple, then switches to bear form, the cripple is lost. EDIT: It was a bug.
  98. 08/19 - SPL fall relegations started today. Still haven't been added to the season ticket.
  99. 08/21 - Players can randomly not receive the awesome chest after completing the corrupted arena chests. [Example 1](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6uw05q/awesome_chest_from_corrupted_arena/) [Example 2](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/6v44ag/no_awesome_chest_from_corrupted_arena/)
  100. 08/21 - HiRez bugged out the MOTD by adding this adventure, so rather than patch it they'll just [disable MOTD for a month](https://twitter.com/HiRezAjax/status/898263716906418176). EDIT: MOTD returned on 8/31, much sooner than expected
  101. 08/23 - If I put this issue in the list every time it happened, this list would be about 3 times as long right now, but every single damn time HiRez streams 2 things within a short period of time from each other (Sometimes it can be multiple days apart) they never bother to change the stream title. Right now HiRezTV and the smite YouTube channel are both streaming what I believe is the Latin American SPL under the title "4.16 patch overview" (which ended several hours ago)
  102. 08/26 - To further my last point, today the smite YouTube channel is currently streaming the Oceania pro league week 2 under the title "SMITE 4.16 Patch Overview | Summer Knockout"
  103. 08/28 - Death cap Sylvanus is featured in the in-game store as 25% off. It is actually full price.
  104. 08/29 - Today's patch brought a temporary end to this week's double login event. Took about 4 hours for someone at HiRez to turn it back on and (For the first time I've seen with regards to double login events) retroactively give out the bonuses.
  105. 08/29 - Weekly chests can no longer be opened. The game says you have ever item inside and won't let you open.
  106. 08/29 - Shortly after today's patch came out, after winning a match players would receive a large, random amount of gems/favor (Once example was 900 gems and 400 THOUSAND favor) players would shortly after lose MORE gems and favor than the wrongly received amount, some losing all of their gems/favor.
  107. 08/29 - The new bearly buzzed Bacchus's taunts/emotes don't work when his drunk-o-meter is above 30%
  108. 08/29 - players have received the bearly buzzed Bacchus summer skin after only having to buy 7 summer of smite items instead of all 8.

  112. September
  113. 09/02 - Dropkick bundle (A bundle for a child cancer charity) went up 50 gems over night with no warning.
  114. 09/03 - Solid hornet, a LIMITED SEASON 2 ranked skin, is still available, in season 4. Some on Reddit are saying it's meant to be exclusive now, in which case, I dunno, maybe make an announcement or something. EDIT: Skin is still available and also still labeled limited as of this post (5/15)
  115. 09/04 - HiRez forgot to turn off double login bonus today (As of 11 EST)
  116. 09/06 - Just tried out the confetti fountain skin. It's not only incredibly stupid, but it's a client side only cosmetic. Good lord HiRez. That entirely defeats the purpose of cosmetics. EDIT: Fountain skins are still clientside only as of this post (5/15)
  117. 09/07 - There is still an in-game advertisement for the double login bonus week that ended on the 4th. Clicking it takes you to an in-game blank page.
  118. 09/08 - The 2017 SEIL Split Three was added to the season ticket today. The first week of matches have already happened of course, and can not be voted on.
  119. 09/12 - Today for a short period of time, all players who bought the odyssey chest would get every single voicepack in the game out of a single chest.
  120. 09/13 - Odyssey points are not being rewarded for completing odyssey quests. EDIT: Hotfixed 9/14
  121. 09/13 - All players had their godlike chest progression rolled back by 1 today. No favor/refund of any type was given.
  122. 09/13 - Chaac's new skin axe throwing sound reuses the audio from his chaacolate rain skin and all of his other ability sound effects use the default skin sounds. EDIT: Sound effects "Fixed" on 9/27. Fixed of course meaning his axe throw was set to the default sound effect and nothing else changed (T4 skin btw).
  123. 09/13 - Hachiman can dash while crippled.
  124. 09/13 - Players can no loner equip random ward skins, and any players who had random ward skins equipped before this patch will have all their placed wards appear as question marks.
  125. 09/13 - Morrigan players who turn into Hachiman can not manually fire his ult early. EDIT: Hotfixed 9/14
  126. 09/13 - HiRez repeatedly said that the Terra dropkick bundle was going away in patch 4.17. It is still present. Also, it is now back at it's original price of 450 gems.
  127. 09/13 - Any VGS used in game has a significant delay before appearing in the in-game chat window.
  128. 09/14 - Using Neith or Athena's ult with DX11 causes the game to crash. EDIT: Hotfixed later in the day
  129. 09/15 - "From Friday, September 15 to Sunday, September 17, earn 2x Favor on all matches played AND on First Win of the Day bonus." No double first win of the day bonus. Not a big deal to me, but HiRez went out of their way to specify that FWOTD bonus would be included.
  130. 09/15 - The new AMC skin has no ability sound effects when he's on the opposite team.
  131. 09/21 - Almost 10 months since the morrigan's release. Today her ult bugged out in the SPL (The player couldn't use any abilities for several seconds after transforming) and [possibly cost NRG a game](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2tLBlRbRNs).
  132. 09/22 - Many players, myself included, have not been getting FP for our recent correct SPL predictions on the season ticket.
  133. 09/22 - HiRez accidentally enabled an enigma chest quest today. (I say accidentally because it was only advertised as a double everything weekend) "Gods and Goddesses, this weekend, we’re seeing double! Play SMITE and earn double Worshipers, Experience, and Favor all weekend long!"
  134. 09/23 - Still have Enigma chest quest that shouldn't be there today.
  135. 09/24 - Guess they don't give a shit. We got a full enigma chest weekend, and funnily enough didn't actually get the 2x everything weekend they advertised. (We didn't get 2x FP, only 2x Favor/worshippers/xp)
  136. 09/25 - Chaos side in today's motd only gets the first 14 gods alphabetically again. Order side has true random though. I guess it's a start to fixing this bug.
  137. 09/27 - Today is the first time that HiRez has acknowledged the fact that no one is getting fp for any correct predictions on the season ticket. (Only acknowledged through a support ticket to a player, no public response yet)
  138. 09/27 - It appears the recent update that reduced skadi's ice circle size only reduced the size of the CC effect and the visuals. Players still take damage if they are within the old radius of the ice circle.
  139. 09/27 - Witchblade was changed in the last patch. It had it's lifesteal removed and replaced with cooldown. It however still shows up in the lifesteal tab and does not show up in the cooldown tab.
  140. 09/27 - The new Ymir skin has several "Attack/Defend Left/Right/Middle Lane" Voice lines mixed up.
  141. 09/30 - Here's one I missed. On the 21st, [a Reddit user made a post on the smite subreddit asking why SPL was no longer being streamed on YouTube](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/71kqgk/spl_youtube_stream/). An official HiRez employee with username /u/notthetvshowjag responds saying "SPL will be on Twitch only." To which the original poster asks, "When/where was that said?" to which the HiRez employee responds "I said it. Just now." Kind of incredibly unprofessional and dickish if you ask me. The employee later explains they were only sarcastic because they were originally anonymous before being tagged a HiRez employee, but that still leaves the fact that the stream was removed from YouTube for over a week with ZERO communication to the community of why or if it will ever come back.

  145. October
  146. 10/01 - Terra had her root removed in the recent patch. One of her achievements is still to root 3 enemy gods with one monolith. EDIT: Achievment changed to slow 3 enemies. EDIT: Terra got her root back! Achievment didn't change back though.
  147. 10/04 - For the past few days several players are reporting major server desync (Enemies visible in your fountain, when in actuality they are on the other side of the map. Basic attacks/abilities appearing out of thin air). HiRez said it was a corrupted server and has been fixed, but the problem still continues.
  148. 10/09 - Haven't played much recently. Decided to play a few matches with my friends today. Our third game had everyone stuck on the loading screen. We were then all kicked back to the main menu, all the boosters we used in the lobby were consumed and none of us were able to requeue. None of us were confused, none of us were surprised. This is normal smite. EDIT: It has now been over 90 minutes since this happened. We are still thrown immediately into a loading screen upon launching smite, and after a few minutes are still kicked to the lobby, and still are unable to queue for another match.
  149. 10/09 - I've been really bad about keeping track of season ticket not updating in a reasonable time, and about 70% of this list would solely be the season ticket not updating in a reasonable time if I logged every single one. Anyways here's a quick rundown on today's current Season Ticket:
  150. - The last 4 games of the Week Ten CSL are still live (Occurred on 10/5 and 10/6)
  151. - There are 2 matches visible on the ticket for week eleven CSL. There is no week 11 CSL (According to the smitegame esports website).
  152. - All 9 matches of the week 1 Brazil league are currently live. According to the smitegame website we are currently still in the summer split for Brazil SPL with week 1 being 5/09 & 5/10. (I believe the matches for week 1 of this split occurred on 10/3)
  153. 10/10 - Today's update broke in game lobby text chat both before and after matches.
  154. 10/10 - Today's update makes boosters unusable.
  155. 10/10 - Several users reporting VGS no longer works in this patch.
  156. 10/10 - The Halloween chest says there's 14 items in the Halloween chest. There's only 13 (according to the description alongside it). According to Reddit user /u/Zhadeblade, 2 years ago there was a bug with the Halloween chest were slaughterhouse chaac counted twice, showing 9 total items when there should be 8. It appears this bug has returned.
  157. 10/12 - [The MOTD on console hasn't changed in 3 days.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/75wvk3/motd_hasnt_changed_in_three_days_on_console/)
  158. 10/12 - I now notice the PC MOTD is the same from yesterday as well, and there's now a timer underneath it that says it changes in four days and 17 hours. (EDIT: Was changed to infinite assault a few hours later)
  159. 10/23 - Today is the first day of "The Reaping" event. As such today's MOTD is called cooldowns spooketh over. With the description "Fire abilities at will, in this haunting MOTD where all your abilities have a greatly reduced cooldown!". The thing that makes this mode different from regular cooldowns runeth over should be the fact that it takes place in the Halloween arena map and has the spooky potions, but HiRez failed to do that. Instead it's on the default arena map, no spooky potion available. This is at 10:30 pm EST, so it's not like they haven't had time to correct it. They genuinely just don't care.
  160. 10/23 - The new Neith skin is cross-eyed.
  161. 10/24 - Boosters no longer show up under player names in the lobby anymore. I assume this is a bug since the box that the boosters usually show up in still shows up.
  162. 10/31 - [Player's can get coupons that say they are retired out of their odyssey chest.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/79ws3w/seriously_how_am_i_supposed_to_use_this_my_reward/) (They still work fine, but clearly cause confusion)

  166. November
  167. 11/01 - On the front page of the in-game store I see a Sennheiser Giveaway is advertised. Clicking it does nothing, users must exit the game and search on their own. It's also not mentioned anywhere on the smitegame.com website, and at this point I'm not sure if it actually exists.
  168. 11/01 - Game 3 of today's first set in super regionals spent more time paused than being played.
  169. 11/02 - If I had a gem for every "technical issues" pause from super regionals...
  170. 11/03 - Today when we listened in to NRG's comms we could hear [NRG agreeing that there was noticeable lag... at a LAN...](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7akbiu/nrg_feels_the_lag/)
  171. 11/06 - Today Discordia came out. HiRez of course forgot to un-mark Hachiman as new, and as such he still costs 11,000 favor instead of 5,500 like he should. EDIT: Hotfixed the next day
  172. 11/06 - Today's update made all the end of match text all caps, causing some things to be cutoff. (e.g. "PLAYER DAMA"). EDIT: Fixed in 11/20 patch
  173. 11/06 - Today's update broke announcer packs. They just don't play at all, it's silent.
  174. 11/06 - Discordia's K screen for abilities doesn't have any ability art.
  175. 11/06 - The adventures vault area doesn't show you the new Hercules adventure bundle, but instead redirects you to the corrupted arena bundle. EDIT: Hotfixed the next day
  176. 11/06 - Players can't buy favor chests at the end of a won match. Must be bought outside match lobby then a game must be won.
  177. 11/06 - [HiRez replaced Izanami's creepy doll skin icon with an icon that used to be the placeholder for Xing Tian's old ranked skin.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7b6cuo/well_thats_an_interesting_god_skin_icon/) EDIT: Hotfixed the next day
  178. 11/06 - Odyssey chests can no longer be opened with today's patch.
  179. 11/06 - Players can't buy the vault Cernunnos skin with their bonus adventure key for getting all the bundles. EDIT: Hotfixed the next day
  180. 11/06 - Occasionally players can see enemy Discordias through the entire map.
  181. 11/06 - The new Vanquisher Nemesis chest has a new feature where you roll it for 3 items, then pick one of the 3 you got. Pretty nifty, but it's bugged such that it shows the odyssey icon instead of god card arts in the pick 3 screen. Players must therefor pick a skin based solely off the skin name.
  182. 11/07 - [All of the god portraits in the post-game lobby are about 1/5th the size they're supposed to be.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7bbqd4/what_is_this_a_victory_screen_for_ants_unplayable/)
  183. 11/12 - In the new adventures you're supposed to get 100 gems if you complete the Hercules statue and already own Hercules' tier 2. It doesn't work. Players just don't receive the gems.
  184. 11/20 - In today's update that added nothing new to the UI, the following UI issues were introduced:
  185. - Bacchus, Freya, and Arachne all have their old model portraits back as their default portraits.
  186. - The history screen has all it's match entries squished to about half their height with open gaps between them.
  187. - In-game kill notifications now have the god portraits they use so dark that it's difficult to tell which god even died.
  188. - All instances of god portraits have a delay were they're just a black square for a second before loading. (In the god pick screen, when scrolling through the god pick screen, in the skin selection screen, etc).
  189. - All shadow skin portraits in the clan store have solid black portraits.
  190. - The Morrigan's ult doesn't load god portraits, it's just 9 black hexagons.
  191. - Viewing emotes in the god screen now says you own every emote.
  192. 11/20 - Here's one I failed to mention a while back, and at this point I don't know when it started but it is currently still an issue as of today's update. The T screen only shows the damage from the last tick of enemy god abilities.
  193. 11/20 - When viewing the new Scylla skin's emotes in the god screen, her dogs are invisible. (For her dance she just starts floating into the air)
  194. 11/20 - Random ward skin option is still broken... but hey 5 new exclusive skins.
  195. 11/20 - HiRez goes out of their way to promote this big adventures competition were teams race to get the best time for rewards. Then in the first update to the adventure they nerf all the blessings from 30% to 20%, ensuring that no one can get a new best time.
  196. 11/20 - HiRez accidentally changed the amount of XP minions give in conquest, causing players to level up faster than normal. EDIT: Fixed in 11/21 hotfix
  197. 11/20 - Awesome, HiRez listened to everyone complaining about the firegiant odyssey quest and changed it to just be "Kill any jungle boss"! Except they failed and only the firegiant and Bull Demon count for it.
  198. 11/21 - Today's hotfix implemented the "No one can get into a match" feature for about an hour after the servers came back up.
  199. 11/22 - Today's MOTD, Joust the two of us, puts 5 players into the lobby, then kicks everyone and gives them deserter. Apparently it did this exact same thing 2 weeks ago when joust the two of us was last MOTD.
  200. 11/23 - [It appears selecting any item (An announcer pack, a loading screen, etc) removes the random option for good.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7eydwt/if_you_select_a_single_announcer_pack_or_loading/)
  201. 11/24 - According to multiple people on Reddit, the recent update broke the 2015 season ticket frame. All players frame's have been downgraded to the lowest version of the frame.
  202. 11/25 - Each of the class specific chests have recently had a 10th skin added to it. The in-game description has of course not been updated. In game it shows 6 icons, then the description says there's 3 more, but there's actually 4 more. This is true for all 5 chests.
  203. 11/26 - [It's possible to equip the unreleased Fire & Ice HUD skin once you have enough odyssey points.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7fp4x4/you_can_equip_the_fire_and_ice_hud_skin_when_you/) It causes all elements aside from numbers, abilities, passive displays and portraits to become invisible.
  204. 11/28 - Anubis has been temporarily disabled due to a crashing issue. Today's MOTD remains "Battleground of the gods" which has 5 playable gods with one being Anubis. This results in every single match of MOTD giving deserter to the last player per team to pick a god (As they can't pick Anubis). EDIT: MOTD has now been entirely disabled, not replaced with something else like usual
  205. 11/28 - Had my first T-screen crash ever tonight. Probably had 600ish hours of playtime with the old T screen and used it constantly while never crashing. Then HiRez disabled the T-screen entirely for an entire year while they "rebuilt" the T screen from the ground up specifically to fix this crash. [And yet here it is.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7gbw4j/t_button_crashes_are_back/)
  206. 11/29 - So during patch notes during the ares skin display pon pon lagged out of what I assume is a LAN client. He used ares ult and it wouldn't connect to the odin-bot, he used it again and it still wouldn't connect, then suddenly he was teleported into the jungle when I assume the game re-synced. It even said he lost connection to the chat servers. Later during the Hel skin display he also teleported down mid lane by about 100 units. This is embarrassing. (Tell us more about how any lag issues we have are the ISP's fault Hinduman, please)
  207. 11/29 - MOTD is still disabled.
  208. 11/30 - MOTD still completely disabled. After a crash from a single god. (Anubis has been re-enabled)

  212. December
  213. 12/01 - "Fortune chest on sale now!" - A banner on the homepage with Ordo Solaros Amaterasu on it, even though that skin isn't in the chest being advertised. This is at LEAST the 3rd time they've done this. (I haven't been keeping track very well, it's likely more). At this point I'm convinced HiRez is being intentionally misleading. We're well beyond the point of "accident".
  214. 12/07 - Just got back from a long trip, so here's all the problems it looks like there were on patch day (According to the update megathread):
  215. - There should be 5 gods on free rotation this patch according to the "weekly wisdom" post by HiRezStealth. None of these 5 gods are on rotation and instead there are 10 gods on rotation, 5 of which have been on rotation for over 2 months now.
  216. - The Roman Odyssey Quests all use the Greek icon
  217. - Shaman's ring passive icon tooltip is just a '?'
  218. - Awilix's Ult description is just '?'
  219. - One of the Roman quests is to play Mayan Gods
  220. - The Ice Textures on the walls in the adventure are texture-less
  221. - Discordia's mastery skins are un-purchasable
  222. - Loading frames change to default every time the client is launched
  223. 12/08 - It appears that rather than fix the bugged quest for "Kill any jungle boss", HiRez instead just changed the description to say "Kill Firegiant, gold fury, or bull demon king"
  224. 12/09 - Pro player Mirage has been suspended and everyone's arguing over it. According to Hinduman he has been reported 316 times (Which doesn't seem like that much if it's over his entire accounts lifetime). He broke the rules though, and he got suspended. That's fine and good and I support it fully. The problem is, EVERYONE breaks the rules. Watch 30 seconds of DMBrandon's stream and you'll likely see 2 examples. Rule breakers only actually get punished if they happen to break the rules in a match with a HiRez employee (Or a friend of a HiRez employee). [Here's Hindu's tweet.](https://twitter.com/HiRezHinduman/status/939311426119852033) In my experience about 1 in 5 games will have a player who says pretty much everything on that list. I'll report the player with a full description of what they said in chat using the in-game report system. Everyone in my party will report the player as well. And yet, over my 3+ years of playing smite and reporting rulebreakers, I have never gotten a notification saying anction has been taken. I'll still run into the same toxic player 2 weeks later and they will spew the same toxic garbage throughout the match and I will report them again with an in-depth description of what they said, even though I know full well that unless a HiRez employee (or a friend of one) was in my match as well, nothing will be done.
  225. 12/15 - Me and my friends all took the "kill 4 towers" odyssey quest. We played clash and killed both towers, each phoenix twice, then won. The quest progress went up to 1/4. The tower quests have been bugged out like this since they were introduced in season 2. EDIT: Next day we killed 2 towers in siege, progress is still at 1/4. EDIT: Next match was clash, we killed both towers, then both phoenixes once then won. Progress is now at 2/4. EDIT: Clash, killed 2 towers. Progress is now 3/4. EDIT: Clash, 2 towers, 1 phoenix, victory. Progress 3/4. EDIT: Siege, 2 towers, quest complete. Final tower count: 12. Final Phoenix Count: 7.
  226. 12/16 - Today is the third day in a row of having "Infinite Assault" as the mode of the day.
  227. 12/18 - Fun fact, today HiRez pushed the paladins update that turns it's progression system for half it's modes into literally battlefront 2.
  228. 12/19 - Patch day! Ullr's T5 can't use special emotes on console.
  229. 12/19 - Hachiman's 1 is bugged and now acts like a line ability. It will pass through the whole minion wave now giving him insane clear.
  230. 12/19 - Ullr's T5 can lose his right hand axe if he changes to his bow too quickly after using his axe throw.
  231. 12/28 - Both 3 day boosters in the Shadows over Hercropolis adventure only last 24 hours. EDIT: Never fixed or refunded as of the adventure's end
  232. 12/28 - Here's my condolences to all the artists and designers who poured their hearts and souls into making this grand awesome adventure, only to have someone else demand that the gold rate be 800 gold every 20 minutes, starter items be in the tier 3 chest, the gate take 4 bombs instead of 2, the draugr's whirlpool cover the whole boat, etc. I wish we could all have experienced the full adventure with a real difficulty curve and a reasonable grind.

  236. January
  237. 01/01 - [Music themes still 45% broken.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7r8pev/do_music_themes_work_in_all_game_modes_or_only/)
  238. 01/01 - Someone pointed out today that the map in the clash preview (When you click clash in the queue list it shows a mini-map preview over the the right) is still the old version of clash, with space for firegiant and gold fury and no route from jungle to red buff. (Clash was changed on January 25th, 2017. Only 3 more weeks until a year without being fixed!) EDIT: Still present as of this post (5/15)
  239. 01/01 - Here's another someone pointed out on Reddit, Guan yu's passive tooltip in game is the description for his old passive. The one that was changed in patch 3.12 (July 7th, 2016!).
  240. 01/02 - For the past few days ranked wins are no longer counting the player's ranked rewards quests. HiRez today acknowledged the issue exists with no word of if all the uncounted matches will be retroactively counted.
  241. 01/03 - So apparently since Discordia's release her opening dialogue has been broken. When she spawns into a new match she says nothing. Her dialogue exists in the game files so this is clearly a bug.
  242. 01/03 - The very first match of the Smite World Championship is currently being delayed due to "Technical Difficulties". EDIT: Now half an hour past the start time. EDIT: 1 hour. Still delayed. Off to a great start HiRez. This will really get people to take you seriously. EDIT: 83 minutes. 83 minutes of technical difficulties. For the first match. Of the world championship.
  243. 01/03 - [Epsilong](https://twitter.com/eLevateJermain/status/948592468920094720) (In case it's removed, it's a plaque at the world championships with Epsilong instead of Epsilon)
  244. 01/03 - Big shout out to whoever decided to get rid of the very convenient promo.smitegame.com code redemption for people who want to redeem codes from out of game.
  245. 01/03 - At the very end of the last match for the SWC today the Titan briefly left it's base and walked around the mid wall and the order mid phoenix.
  246. 01/03 - I bookmarked the HRX schedule page yesterday so I could easily keep track of game times. Today I check and the page has been removed. It now is just a giant pink screen that says PAGE NOT FOUND. Looking on the news tab there are no other schedules. Googling HRX 2018 schedule gives the first result as the giant pink "PAGE NOT FOUND PAGE. This is really great way to get people to watch your world championships HiRez. Hiding the schedule to anyone curious about watching it.
  247. 01/04 - Day 1 is over. It's now 02:18 EST. The doors open in 5 hours and 42 minutes and we still can't vote on the season ticket matches. EDIT: Well I could vote while they were doing the red carpet so, VEW? Still can't vote on the 2 Friday matches we know the teams on.
  248. 01/04 - So I see why the schedule page went down. Overnight HiRez pushed EVERYTHING back 15 minutes.
  249. 01/05 - Multiple spectator client error popups during today's SWC stream.
  250. 01/06 - One of the paladin's matches just crashed on the Paladin's worlds stream.
  251. 01/06 - Tonight the friends list doesn't work. It's just blank.
  252. 01/07 - The Flock Chest, 50% off. A simple statement, but when ran through the HiRez supercomputer we get a 200 gem chest on sale at 150 gems.
  253. 01/07 - Stream just died in picks and bans of game 4 of the finals.
  254. 01/07 - We did it, we finally beat the adventure on hard. Aaaaaand the 3 day booster reward here is also only a 1 day booster.
  255. 01/07 - So apparently on console's Hachiman still hasn't been patched. His 1 still passes through minions giving him amazing early clear. He's banned from ranked on consoles though, so all the casual players can just go fuck themselves I guess.
  256. 01/18 - Motd never got updated today.
  257. 01/18 - Patch notes for season 5 today. 99% of the changes sound great to me and I'm looking forward to playing it. Unfortunately HiRez was incapable of streaming the internal playtest match they promised would be on after patch notes. On the bright side we got 20 minutes of excellent F. and Hindu banter.
  258. 01/20 - If you've ever played PTS before the season 5.1 PTS, then you get rewarded for helping HiRez in the past by: Not getting gems or favor. If you've never played on PTS before you of course get max gems and favor and can buy and play with any god/skin. EDIT: 100k Gems and 1 mil favor given on 1/24
  259. 01/20 - Also, something HiRez failed to mention with PTS. It's set to a snapshot of 3 months ago instead of 1 week ago like it's supposed to be. If your account is less then 3 months old, sorry, you're not allowed to help on PTS. Plus there's tons of people on reddit who want to help test PTS but can't because HiRez didn't mention the fact that your password to login has to be the password you were using 3 months ago. I'll try not to judge too hard since it's PTS and all, but fuck, I hope their level of communication when season 5 is live is better than this.
  260. 01/22 - Glad I don't play on console. [It sounds like their quality issues are even worse than PC.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7s48wy/the_lack_of_console_support_and_attention_is/)
  261. 01/23 - Me and lots of other people logged on today to have an Awesome chest waiting in our rewards center. It appears to be random, no one can find a pattern for why people are getting it and others aren't. Yes, I'm complaining about free shit. But only because: 1 It was accidental free shit. 2: Not everyone got the free shit, which has to feel pretty bad when you're a person who missed out on an awesome chest of all chests. EDIT: Turns out it was a twitch prime thing, but only people who have claimed the Paladins award got it early?
  262. 01/24 - In a huge shock to absolutely no one, [HiRez has once again failed to pay players of less popular leagues in a reasonable amount of time](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7sq1n8/salsa_squad_1_cc_reveals_hirez_evil_in_twitlonger/). Also, SalsaSquad & Spacestation gaming were told they were for sure in the S5 challenger cup and now HiRez just kind of changed their mind. Plus 5th and 6th Seed SPL teams were not given a spot in the minor league, 7th and 8th did of course because reasons? And finally "The top 2 S5 Challenger Cup teams will make more than the bottom two S4 SPL teams!" - But then they didn't. The end. [Here's an Incon vid.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7srcqs/incons_video_hirez_lied/) EDIT: [HiRez response](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7ss788/smite_minor_league_updates/).
  263. 01/30 - WOOH YEAH, PATCH DAY, SEASON 5! LET'S GO! THIS IS THE YEAR HIREZ TURN IT ALL AROUND AND START CARING ABOUT SMITE!
  264. 01/30 - [Here](http://forums.smitegame.com/showthread.php?175873-5-1-Release-Known-Issues)'s a list of their known issues for this patch. To sum it up: Thoth Disabled. Badge rewards don't work. Kill bounty isn't giving the right amount of xp.
  265. 01/30 - A 5th type of booster was added with Season 5. The UI was not updated to support this. This means you can't redeem XP boosters if you have at least 1 of each booster.
  266. 01/30 - Specialists blessings are unavailable in the game. Two reddit users swear they were removed intentionally as they saw a post somewhere saying so. They can't provide a source however and lots of people are confused. Glad that we have active community managers on the launch day of the new season to clear simple stuff like this up! /s (Post is 6 hours old right now) EDIT: It's now 02/11. [People are still confused](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7wswr4/what_happened_to_the_other_blessings/) and we are still without answer. But hey, MLC_St3alth has made silly comments on several gameplay clip threads. So we at least have that going for us. EDIT: Specialist blessings have been added to the game with 5.2. For the whole 2 weeks of 5.1 we never once got clarification on whether they were intentionally absent or not. EDIT: Not in clash for some fucking reason. In every other non-conquest mode though.
  267. 01/30 - The season ticket double FP is bugged. Player's aren't receiving the amount of FP they should after a match.
  268. 01/30 - I only just figured out what team badges are/do and only by reading the known issues list I added above. There is no info on them in the about page of the season ticket. [Lot's of other people are just as confused as I am](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7u1qva/what_is_that_and_why_they_cost_500gems_each/) EDIT: We finally got an [actual explanation!](https://www.smitegame.com/news/what-are-team-badges) 10 days later...
  269. 01/30 - The Ragnarok Metal Theme is non-existent. If you purchase and equip it it's just the celestial theme. This was present on PTS.
  270. 01/30 - There's a big "Practice" button in the FP store that's available when you select a god skin. It does nothing. EDIT: Fixed in 5.2. Now takes you straight to jungle practice with selected skin
  271. 01/30 - Pyromancer buff icon still has no art. It's invisible now instead of having the placeholder icon like it did on the PTS. Not much of an improvement.
  272. 01/30 - The conquest tutorial is still the season 4 map. Gods Dammit HiRez. We have an influx of players from Paragon shutting down, and they're all being told "Wait just a few days until season 5 so you don't have to relearn everything". Then a new player waits until season 5, boots up the game, goes in the tutorial, and is playing on an ENTIRELY DIFFERENT FUCKING MAP AND BEING TOLD TO PURCHASE ITEMS THAT NO LONGER FUCKING EXIST. I WONDER WHY SMITE HAS TROUBLE RETAINING NEW PLAYERS, HMM, WHAT A FUCKING MYSTERY.
  273. 01/30 - [Apparently Badges also give FP bonuses](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7u27tt/s5_ticket_fp_rewards_and_god_please_revert_to_old/dthqtec/?context=3)? I have no fucking clue.
  274. 01/31 - [Ullr's T5 apparently still doesn't switch colors for other players when he's below level 10](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7uc0we/in_424_frostfire_ullr_came_out_in_51_its_still/)

  278. February
  279. 02/01 - Co-op Conquest was apparently giving out FP like normal matches. It has been disabled in today's hotfix. Hope all you new players know about custom games, cause without co-op or a fucking tutorial that's your only way to play conquest without jumping into a real match.
  280. 02/06 - HiRez appeared to have removed the small amount of favor players earned for playing co-op vs ai matches. Thank god. The favor inflation from all these tryhard favor grinders was crashing the favor market. HiRez really saved the day this time.
  281. 02/08 - So I played a match on PTS with a player who I can't name so as to not witch hunt. They called me, and other players on my team the N-word multiple times and told me to kill myself. I reported them in a support ticket, as I felt this racism and hatred was extreme enough to warrant a [special report](http://forums.smitegame.com/showthread.php?80734-How-do-you-actually-report-players&p=383292&viewfull=1#post383292). I got a response a week later where they said "We expect everyone to follow the rules and we'll look into this guy, but please, never report here again." Well I checked today and they're still playing just fine, no interruptions, no temporary bans. Nothing. So either HiRez just doesn't give a shit about toxic players, or I guess maybe this particular person bought enough gems to be put on a special no-ban list. This guy has 1700 hours of Smite, and I really doubt he went all this time being a non-toxic player, then just decided after 1700 hours in the match I played with him to, for the first time, say stuff like "stfu n\\\\r and learn to play the game" (Exact quote). It's disgusting that this behavior is allowed to go unpunished.
  282. 02/09 - Soul gem was bugged, apparently an interaction with hide of the urchin caused it to give players a massive shield. So rather than fix the issue, [https://twitter.com/SMITEGame/status/962055810695159808](it's going to be changed to have a different, similar themed passive and added back in patch 5.3) (We're currently still on 5.1)
  283. 02/10 - If I had a nickel for every console player post complaining about the abysmal servers today I'd use that money to buy HiRez new servers. (Which they would immediately sell and put the profits towards fucking paladins royale)
  284. 02/12 - I may have just gotten my spring fling cutesy chest. No idea. Maybe it's another twitch prime reward that got activated too early again. No clue. EDIT: Nope, friend with twitch prime also got one. Probably another twitch prime reward launched too early.
  285. 02/13 - Patch day! [Known Issues](http://forums.smitegame.com/showthread.php?176300-5-2-Release-Known-Issues). Noteworthy issue: New adventure has a small bug. [You can't win](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7xbqso/new_quest_wont_let_you_win_uber_troll_by_lorez/). If you successfully defend the fox and do everything you need to do to win, you get the defeat cutscene and only 1 star as well as the lower amount of fox points that come with getting 1 star. This of course will all be patched in tomorrow's EDIT: The day after tomorrow's hotfix. Somehow they've managed to top the Apollo racer rumble placement bug for most inexcusable adventure release bug.
  286. 02/13 - The adventures "Guaranteed Fox in _ Chests!" Is broken and stays at 0 no matter how many chests you unlock.
  287. 02/13 - The map shown on the adventure queue tab is the adventures map [pasted on top of the conquest map](https://i.imgur.com/MAfC8hg.jpg) and off centered. EDIT: Present for the entire duration of the adventure.
  288. 02/13 - The play-maker announcer pack is just the default announcer pack.
  289. 02/13 - There are now two jungle practice queues. Queuing up for the second one does nothing. When you press join queue it just throws you back to the main lobby. EDIT: Still present as of this post (5/15)
  290. 02/13 - Daji's 1 no longer provides haste as stated in the ability description. No mention of it's removal on patch notes.
  291. 02/13 - Gauntlet of Thebes can no longer be purchased in assault. Intentionally removed or an error? With HiRez-communicationTM the world may never know...
  292. 02/13 - Surrender doesn't work in the adventure. The vote is available, and if everyone votes F6 then it will say surrender passed, but then nothing happens.
  293. 02/13 - Enemies will often spawn outside the map on the new adventure and refuse to enter the map.
  294. 02/13 - The 700 FP, loading frames, and hud skins from badges that were all promised to be rewarded in 5.2 were not. But hey, the ward skin reward works now! Baby steps HiRez, Baby steps. EDIT: The 700 FP was correctly [distributed](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7ywb6o/just_got_700_fp_for_team_badge_bought_before_42/) on 2/20
  295. 02/13 - HiRez: "Well we really aren't comfortable updating old skins because lots of players like the skin how they bought it and will be upset if we change it." Also HiRez: "[Hey, DJ Zeus's custom emote where he can walk around and play music? Get that shit out of here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7xe2x5/heavens_rave_zeus_vxg_got_completely_changed_why/), we gotta promote this other DJ skin so lets change his emote to a completely different animation with different music and remove the ability to move with it playing"
  296. 02/15 - [Today's hotfix removed normal wards and chalice of the oracle from conquest](https://twitter.com/SSG_Incon/status/964182444885925895).
  297. 02/15 - Specialists blessing are once again gone with this hotfix. And hey! [MLC_Stealth clarified what their situation is!](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7xtbjk/what_is_going_on_with_the_nonconquest_blessings/dub6obm/). And in only 16 days!
  298. 02/20 - So the new bundle only takes [18-20 hours](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/7yrjh0/average_time_spent_on_the_fox_adventure_for_the/) of grinding (With the bundle of course) to get all 3 foxes! This is actually a huge improvement over the Hercules bundle, I'm not even joking.
  299. 02/22 - Finally, SPL is no longer being streamed on that shitshow that is twitch and is being moved exclusively to a proper streaming site, [mixer](https://blog.mixer.com/smiteonmixer/)! - No one, ever. (I personally like Mixer better. Better quality, latency, and stream player IMO, but damn if this isn't an awful move for smite's playerbase)
  300. 02/27 - Xbalanque's ult now has a targeter for his extended basics. Cool. And Vamana's ult now has a targeter for his basics as well. Dandy. Except for both of these ults enemies can see the targeter too. Kind of a big deal for Xbalanque considering it gives away his location to enemies who would otherwise not know where he is due to his ult.
  301. 02/27 - You can't see the enemy gods in the god pick lobby anymore. It makes 2 sound effects like it's revealing them, then immediately un-revealing them.
  302. 02/27 - Other than that not really any new bugs this patch. Just a bunch of old bugs that have yet to have been fixed from previous patches. [I remember seeing this guy reporting this bug back during the S5 PTS](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/80n62t/pc_patch_day_discussion_and_bug_report_megathread/duxksg4/).

  306. March
  307. 03/02 - Hey, that [morrigan bug](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/81dhs5/morrigan_is_still_busted_details_in_comments/) from 9/21 is still here, neat!
  308. 03/02 - Two games today where a player says in the in-game chat that they're gonna AFK in base. Then they AFK and all comeback potential is gone. I of course report both and describe in detail what they said and did, but nothing will happen to them. Nothing ever happens to bad people in smite (Unless you piss off a HiRez employee). Over my 1000+ hours I've probably submitted 50+ reports where the player LITERALLY INCRIMINATES themselves in the text chat. All HiRez support has to do is look at the chat log to see the player incriminate themselves. But they don't. Not once have I ever had "An action has been taken" notification. It's seriously depressing and no wonder that smite's community is so toxic.
  309. 03/03 - SPL Schedule got released today! We still don't know all the rosters of course. Also, let's see how long it takes before we can vote on them in the in-game client. The first match is on the 20th so my money's on us being able to vote on the 19th. EDIT: Impressive HiRez! We could vote as early as the 18th!
  310. 03/05 - Oh hey, the Smite Console Series started today! Cool. Glad we couldn't vote on it in the season ticket. Off to another great season ticket start that surprises absolutely no one.
  311. 03/06 - Console patch day. It took two weeks, but the issue where the new FP counter covered up god stats in the loading screen is finally not fixed. I guess it's a really tough one to crack. "Two more weeks console bois, suck it up - HiRez p.s. [Achilles is disabled lmao](http://forums.smitegame.com/showthread.php?176830-SMITE-Console-5-3-Release-Known-Issues&p=911329#post911329)"
  312. 03/06 - That issue where people who purchased Ragnarok bundles on PC then didn't get their awesome chest when the event ended was thankfully also not fixed for console users.
  313. 03/06 - Oh and announcer packs don't work.
  314. 03/06 - And fox chests can't be purchased.
  315. 03/07 - They broke leveling up abilities too. [Holy shit this is embarassing](https://i.imgur.com/iFrEw9G.jpg).
  316. 03/13 - When you login and it takes you to the daily reward screen everything is all sorts of broken UI wise. "Congratulations Day ?INT?GFxTranslation.DailyReward.? of consecutive logins." All of the reward columns are blank, and "Next Reward in: NaN Secs".
  317. 03/13 - The giant left panel at the main lobby is a big blank panel with undefined: undefined.
  318. 03/13 - The final fusion Ratatoskr is wrongly labeled exclusive. Or is it... FIND OUT NEXT TIME ON HIREZ MYSTERIES! EDIT: Looks like they've decided to make it exclusive, even after saying on stream it would be limited.
  319. 03/13 - Players with the Textures DLC can't download the update.
  320. 03/18 - Two days until the SPL starts. Still can't vote in the season ticket. Can't say I'm surprised. EDIT: Voting added later today.
  321. 03/19 - ["Sorry console users, we forgot to add voting functionality in your most recent update lmao. Here's free FP. Aren't we awesome devs!"](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/85iyzn/we_still_cant_vote_in_the_season_ticket_on_console/dvy13nn/)
  322. 03/20 - [HiRez proving that Mixer was the right choice](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/85uz6a/mixer_discussion_and_issues_megathread/)
  323. 03/20 - Also, the spectator UI is still broken where it doesn't show any buffs next to player names aside from mana buff.
  324. 03/21 - Today's patch notes Zeus skin played default Zeus voice lines in the pre-recorded skin preview.
  325. 03/21 - Hades' avatar in the picks screen of the SPL is classic Hades.
  326. 03/22 - They took away the Legendary god pack today. Thanks for the warning HiRez! It said "Leaving soon" for a few days and now it's suddenly gone. All of last years adventure bundles and the Digital loot pack are still available to buy though because fuck logic.
  327. 03/22 - In the Las Vegas Arena showmatch today the game was paused in the beginning for the stream while playing for the casters, then for the entire duration of the match the spectator bug where all the in-game god/minion models appear very dark was present. EDIT: The darkened god models in spectator client bug is still present as of this post (5/15)
  328. 03/22 - Lol, they also didn't use the live spectate client for it. There was enough of a delay between the spectator client and the stage that Andinster was [ending a joust a match](https://clips.twitch.tv/CrypticOpenSlothSpicyBoy) when the spectated match ended. They had to pretend to be playing for at least 3 minutes.
  329. 03/25 - Just noticed Achilles' Taunt's, jokes, and laughs are all silent. Wonder how long this has been the case.
  330. 03/25 - HiRez has failed to launch the 90-gems-for-3-first-wins event today. They've announced that they're "Working to fix it" and will retroactively award players their gems. It's currently 3:00 EST and it still isn't live. EDIT: Completed my 3 wins at 6:30 EST. Still no gems. EDIT: 10:00 EST. Guess we'll be given them another day. EDIT: Gems given out the next day.
  331. 03/25 - Just saw on the Smite Minor League stream that the issue where midlane archer minions stop outside of the titan's leash range is still present. That's been an issue since day 1 of PTS. EDIT: Still present as of making this post (5/15)
  332. 03/25 - Wonder how long it'll be before scrolling works again... Can't scroll in SPL page, can't scroll in achievements page, and 50% of the time can't scroll in god screen.
  333. 03/27 - P-P-P-PATCH DAAAY! Lets start things off with a dope ass birthday bundle that should be 25% off that is instead full price. Is it an error? Is it intentional? With HiRez the mystery is always alive! EDIT: [Thanks HiRez?](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/87ssw6/developer_update_smite_birthday_bundles/)
  334. 03/27 - Coming in at number 2 this week we've got retroactive level up rewards! Sort of! [If you claimed any of the old level up rewards then you can't claim that level's rewards in the new level up rewards.](https://twitter.com/HiRezRev/status/978610567131869189). Hot diggity dog am I glad I got some god rentals instead of a Japanese loading frame, enigma chests, and gems! Also when you're redeeming you have to go back to the main menu after every claim because fuck it.
  335. 03/27 - N-N-N-Number 3! The reroll button in assault is gone! Get on outta here rerolls! Hey, on the bright side, no more teammates rerolling healers!
  336. 03/27 - Thanks for the 50% off any direct purchase skin HiRez! Glad it expires in 30 days. I'm sure looking forward to all the new direct purchase skins in the upcoming patches to use it on! (It's been 7 months since our last direct purchase btw)
  337. 03/27 - Tired of people using lobby chat to BM? Well fear no more, HiRez has you covered! Lobby chat no longer works.
  338. 03/27 - N-N-N-Number something! Every time you close the game you now get a crash log!
  339. 03/27 - I guess patches resetting sensitivity is just gonna be a thing every patch now. This is the 3rd one in a row.
  340. 03/27 - Arena Practice and Joust Practice in the training map don't spawn friendly or enemy gods. Hope you like farming minions for 10 minutes new players! Also please don't leave.
  341. 03/27 - Apparently two of the level up rewards weren't implemented at all. The level 9 "Free chest roll" coupon and the level 30 "Free purchasable skin" coupon. /u/Gongsun_yiru put together a [nice list](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/87inzz/so_only_a_few_of_the_new_rewards_are_claimable_by/dwd7oh1/) of all the things old players are missing out on and for what. EDIT: Still not implemented as of making this post (5/15)
  342. 03/27 - HiRez sort of accidentally swapped Jandroid and Primal Hunter Artemis. You can no longer buy Jandroid directly, but can now buy Primal Hunter directly for 400 gems. Also in the FP store Jandroid costs 7000 FP (Exclusive price) while Primal Hunter costs 3500 FP (Direct purchase price). Does this count as a new Direct purchase skin?
  343. 03/27 - Everyone who logged in appears to have gotten a fox chest. Generosity by HiRez? Or just another error? The Mystery continues...
  344. 03/27 - [944 days of Xing Tian's leap being broken.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/87n9av/xing_tians_leap_has_been_broken_for_944_days/)
  345. 03/29 - Looks like the old [temporary zeus](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7pRnOJY4As) reworked kit from back at the beginning of season 3 is being given out in motd's with random selection from all gods.
  346. 03/31 - MOTD once again includes the temporary zeus.
  347. 03/31 - Wooh yeah, HiRez fixed the buffs not appearing in the spectate UI! Well, not the firegiant buff, but still baby steps HiRez. Baby steps. (Also that fucking dark god model bug is still there...)
  348.

  350.  
  351. April
  352. 04/01 - HiRez finally updated MOTD modes to support the conquest map... APRIL FOOLS! There hasn't been a MOTD on conquest since S5 started. EDIT: Still no conquest MOTD as of making this post (5/15)
  353. 04/01 - Guess HiRez can't afford to run the April Fools MOTD this year, but hey, instead we get Battleground of the Dogs! Which still doesn't have cerberus...
  354. 04/03 - Fun Fact I just discovered, that feature where FP scales for every minute over 20 that the match goes? Doesn't work. Just flat out, 60 minute game will still give you 20 FP. No clue how long this has been broken. EDIT: Has since been fixed.
  355. 04/04 - They broke role calling on Console and have said [it won't be fixed for two weeks.](https://twitter.com/HiRezRedd/status/981552694480572416) EDIT: Fixed later this day.
  356. 04/04 - [Here](http://forums.smitegame.com/showthread.php?177462-5-5-Time-to-Party-Console-Known-issues-list)'s the known issues for the XBox patch. They shipped it KNOWING that they would break role calling and coupons. That's apparantly "Good Enough". Shit, you gotta wonder what was so bad in the PS4 patch that they delayed it.
  357. 04/04 - Death Stamps.
  358. 04/06 - Mixer stream appears to be down for most people right now. Hope the money was worth it HiRez.
  359. 04/10 - "Earn 30 FP per correct pick!" Says the season ticket about page. "You've earned 40 FP!" Says the voting page. ["You've actually only earned 20 FP" says HiRez programming](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8bbdjs/how_much_fp_is_a_correct_pick_in_the_season/).
  360. 04/11 - Another patch, another MOTD with [Zeus Redesign...](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8bje5z/so_i_got_a_zeus_redesign_in_my_motd_game_today/) At least Stealth finally acknowledged it and has said it'll be fixed.
  361. 04/11 - Terra's monolith had a slow added to it. HiRez was incapable of adding that information to her [description.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8bks8z/terras_3_description_is_not_updated_it_roots_but/) Of course it's not a big deal. But that's why it's fucking embarassing, it's such a small easy thing to correctly implement that it's embarassing for them to have missed shit like this.
  362. 04/11 - "Guys, should we test out this ability we changed?" "[Lol no](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8bgwzc/56_inner_demons_patch_day_discussion/dx6vbjj/), just ship the patch, we have Paladins Royale to test" - HiRez Erez (Thoth dash was changed in today's update and now has a bug where you can use it repeatedly without it going on cooldown)
  363. 04/11 - The new aphrodite skin uses the default voice pack for ability voicelines.
  364. 04/17 - Last weeks update made the "Hide god stats" feature for loading frames no longer work. EDIT: Still present as of this post (5/15)
  365. 04/17 - Consoles updates today. Coupons are still broken lmao. Two more weeks bois.
  366. 04/19 - Friendly reminder that since DJ Ohm became available (Feb 19th), anytime any of the new DJ skins use their custom emote, all background music for all players across the entire map is immediately silenced until the custom emote is canceled. EDIT: Still present as of this post (5/15)
  367. 04/19 - The esports website has been broken for [several days now](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8dqmz5/hirez_please_fix_your_esports_site_scheduleleague/).
  368. 04/24 - Yay! HiRez finally released a replacement skin for Eliminator ravana. Finally we can all use our 50% off direct purchase skin coupon before it expir-Aaaand it's in a bundle...
  369. 04/24 - So the spring split isn't over yet, but HiRez released the summer split's ticket with today's update. Now, if you didn't vote on all the matches on your season ticket for the spring split before this update, then you actually can't vote anymore. You can't even change your vote if you've already voted. You're essentially locked out of voting for matches in the split you already paid for unless you also pay for the next split that isn't even out yet. Players will also miss out on the FP from picking teams for Smite Masters and SML Spring Finals.
  370. 04/24 - All level 10 clans have been reset to level 0 and as such can't accept any new members.
  371. 04/24 - HiRez failed to give out the ranked god leaderboard gems. Lots of people posting about it.
  372. 04/24 - The Diamond gods counter in the profile page is now broken and only displays 0.
  373. 04/26 - Vulcan is available in the "Melee gods only" MOTD today. This is likely because he used to be a melee character back before he was changed to his current kit in Decemeber... of 2013.
  374. 04/29 - Here's a cool bug that was introduced with the latest patch (It's been getting posted constantly on reddit). If you have the rewards screen open when you get into your match lobby, it never goes away and you get deserter. EDIT: [Example](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8imw8w/im_sorry_to_all_those_in_this_lobby_but_wtf/) EDIT: Still present as of this post (5/15)

  378. May
  379. 05/01 - [Well, I guess that's that. Hopefully I won't have to keep adding stuff to this list, but knowing HiRez's past promises I'm not getting my hopes up just yet.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8gcg6c/improving_smite_patch_quality/)
  380. 05/02 - Voicepack coupons are either still broken on console (Today was a patch day) or have expired and are unusable. No word from HiRez. EDIT: [They're fixed](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8gjvd4/so_console_vp_couponscoupons_are_fixed_if_you/). It just took so long to fix that if you redeemed them when they first came out they've now expired. EDIT: Still no word from HiRez on reimbursing players whose coupons have expired as of this post (5/15)
  381. 05/02 - There's a new potion on Console. The "Multi Multi Position"... Unfortunately you can't buy it.
  382. 05/03 - So here's one that's been present since the day I started playing smite (July of 2014). When someone enters then exits jungle practice, they will still appear as in-game to everyone who has them on their friends list, making it so you can't invite anyone to your party if they've played jungle practice. It's an incredibly annoying bug as we usually have to disband the party and have whoever is currently appearing as "in-game" invite everyone else to a new party. Well hopefully with HiRez's new call for people to test PTS we can finally report this bugs existence after almost 4 years.
  383. 05/03 - [Actual proof](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8gw5s3/hirez_employee_abusing_his_power/) that certain HiRez employees WILL abuse their power to ban players who they get upset with. EDIT: [Hinduman apologizing.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8h1bz7/in_an_effort_to_maintain_transparency/)
  384. 05/04 - Oh boy, the next event is [based around chests](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8h3lom/how_divine_uprising_works/)... yippee... Gotta love how he opens with "It's a pretty straightforward system" then has to explain that each pantheon will get three patches, with three items in each patch and if you get all nine items for that pantheon then you get a bonus skin and if the pantheon is active then it's 12.5% off (EDIT: Changed to 25% off due to backlash lmao) and if it's the first patch of that pantheon then you get a 50% off coupon after buying one chest from that pantheon but only while that pantheon is active and in the first patch it's random and in the second patch it's pick one of two and in the third patch it's pick one of three and this of course resets every three patches when a new pantheon becomes active and if you get all three sets of three items from all three pantheons then you get the tier five Bellona skin. It's really straightforward you see? Oh and don't forget, if you complete all the quests every patch over the course of 9 patches then you get an entire free chest roll worth of gems (450)! Hot diggity dog HiRez is sure generous! I think I'll make another fucking HiRez appreciation post! EDIT: [More changes](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8hbapr/updates_to_divine_uprising/) made the next day after a ton of backlash. It's a good thing they went away from the Odyssey style & ragnarok birthday style to keep things from getting stale (Actual quote from stew lmao). It's clear everyone was upset with how stale those past events were so thank god HiRez is moving onto chest based events. EDIT: [Ayyy, you can direct purchase skins for 750 gems. Woohoo?](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8hjmgl/more_on_divine_uprising/) EDIT: [Lol](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8hp6e0/divine_uprising_made_even_better/) It's hilarious how much work they're having to put into de-crapifying this event. They would have saved so much effort if they had just gone with a stale route from the start, but no, gotta introduce chest events somehow.
  385. 05/08 - At some point in the past weekish HiRez silently changed the season ticket voting from the "Pick two teams" system to the standard "Vote on each set" system. No warning to players, so hope you check the thing you already voted on to see if it changed. This also introduces the issue of many matches being unable to be voted on until only a short time before they are played.
  386. 05/11 - [No possible systems that circumvent this issue](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8ioj5s/i_love_how_they_let_you_vote_for_the_current/) EDIT: [Lol, they never actually updated it before it became unvoteable](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8iq9ok/nice_voting_system_ya_got_there_hi_rez/)
  387. 05/11 - [OCE is officially dead.](https://legacyesports.com.au/farewell-smite) "Shortly the news got worse with a radical re-think of how the international leagues were going to be run. A significantly poorer structure, complete abandonment of all locally available stream content, reduction in financial support, and the removal of all LAN events, made AU Smite a pale insubstantial shadow of what it once was. We managed to bring HiRez management to the table one last time, and received a very reluctant confirmation that international smite was very much not their priority anymore. We couldn’t do any more. Despite being one of the mainstays of AU Smite, and having done everything we could to build the AU scene, we had to finally throw in the towel, and accept the publisher did not want us to partner with them in any way, or even to exist at all. And so Legacy’s journey in AU Smite comes to an end. Sadly, with a whimper, some fond memories, and mostly just a sense of disappointment in the Publisher."
  388. 05/11 - Looks like the spring split global emote [still hasn't been properly rewarded](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8irtui/did_we_ever_get_the_global_emote_for_completing/).
  389. 05/12 - Here's one that I forgot to add here that was introduced I want to guess 2 patches ago. Ghost pings. In all matches there will occasionally be a random ping on your map. It even happens in solo jungle practice and solo custom games.
  390. 05/12 - [Here's Wlfy lagging out at a LAN during today's masters set](https://clips.twitch.tv/ZanyRefinedBeanTTours). Damn those ISP's for making smite so laggy!
  391. 05/12 - Not only was today's second set updated so late that no one could vote on it, [it was also incorrect](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8iy6rr/sure_glad_i_couldnt_vote_on_this_game_especially/). The actual matchup is Rival vs SSG.
  392. 05/14 - It's been 4 years of awful support for season ticket voting, but HiRez is finally [going to improve season ticket support](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8jdnx5/season_ticket_voting/)! For real this time we swear!
  393. 05/15 - Alright, it's patch day. HiRez waited an entire extra week to "improve patch quality" as they said they would on the first of this month. Let's see if it was worth the wait...
  394. 05/15 - Loading frame stats are still broken.
  395. 05/15 - HiRez failed to add the five new free gods (Kukulkan, Nemesis, Bellona, Ares, Artemis) to all players accounts as they said they would in the patch notes.
  396. 05/15 - The slavic music theme is not being given to players who get the slavic bundle. EDIT: Fixed in less than an hour, good response time HiRez.
  397. 05/15 - This UI team I swear... Chernoborg's about page has the Chinese pantheon as his pantheon icon. The Slavic recall and the Voodoo recall both use Celtic pantheon avatars. Ranked god leaderboards don't show any god names. The new box behind the triumphant chests apparently covers up party members.
  398. 05/15 - [Currently active account](https://www.reddit.com/r/Smite/comments/8jlin0/i_have_about_85_days_worth_of_booster_where_did/) boosters appear to have been lost with today's update.
  399. 05/15 - Several players reporting that the Slavic quests only give 50 gems instead of the 100 it was supposed to be increased to. EDIT: Fixed after a few hours.
