Is the change to Rift primaries - allowing them to be bred in the Rift without cloning - intended?
Do you mean that you've been using a Rift primary in Rift breeding but it hasn't come up as a result? According to the Compendium they only have a 2% chance to be cloned, so they won't be showing up very regularly.

No, I was breeding for the Basket dragon (Tansy + Kroki) and got a Fire Rift and an Air Rift dragon as results. They’ve also been included in the breeding hints when I don’t believe they were before. I think they made them possible to breed when not cloning which was never the case before.

adlerist's post on General DV explains it. It looks like the feature was just implemented today, and was intentional.

Unfortunately, it is intentional. The Rift primary breeding hints have been in the data for a while, and the reps pleaded with Deca to not implement it. They just pushed the change about an hour ago. You can add your feedback on this thread with the PSA. Cheers

Thanks! I don’t know how I feel about it yet, I just wanted to make sure it wasn’t a bug.

For the past few days, I’ve noticed that some of my habitats aren’t accumulating cash, like after 12 hrs. or more. For a bit I thought I was going crazy, bc I would get to islands in my collecting pattern, and no cash chests would be visible, I’d say did I already do i? I’d then click on it, and the collecting would start. This is happening on my DV and my daughter’s DV. Is this happening to anyone else?
I know how I feel about it. I'm trying to find some family friendly words to express it. 😉
I'm very disappointed with this change and unsure what Deca is trying to achieve. It's already challenging to rift breed and takes players a long time to develop their rift sufficiently to have parent dragons and adequate etherium earning capacity to do multiple breeds. I really hope this decision is reversed. I'll watch for a while to see how it pans out, but fear it makes DV a less attractive game in the long run.

Have you recently changed how often you collect, or moved dragons into different habitats/moved DC boost buildings to different islands? I don't think I've heard of this bug before, but it's very strange!

I haven’t heard complaints about this on the Forum or any other DV communities. And none of the Game Reps have reported this from their players. Could you open a support ticket? Deca will need to investigate the problem in your park and your daughter’s park.

Just because I can, here’s a low down on the last 2 hours of my life. Thankfully I multitasked. I’d avoided doing Tolzar after my 30 minutes of wasted time this morning trying for those extra colosseum gems. Here’s my evening with Tolzar on my main:
Note that I waited at least 1 minute and often more like 3 before hitting the play button. Where possible, I waited for a dip. Sometimes after several minutes, the dip never came. Sometimes there was an ad, sometimes not. In addition, I only let Monopoly Go, Travel Town and Gardenscapes run through to crashing a few times. Mainly I just closed and restarted the game. ‘Crash’ means the game crashed when I hit ‘play’. Number denotes attempt number.
1. Monopoly Go 2. Monopoly Go 3. Travel Town 4. Gardenscapes 5. Other (worked!) 6. Crash 7. Other (worked!) 8. Other (crashed but didn’t see a title) may have been Gardenscapes 9. Monopoly Go 10. Crash 11. Travel Town 12. Crash 13. Travel Town 14. Crash 15. Monopoly Go 16. Crash 17. Crash
Restarted phone
18. Crash 19. Crash (after collecting from habitats) 20. Crash
It’s been an hour
21. Other (worked!)
On to the gem gift
22. Monopoly Go 23. Crash 24. Crash 25. Crash (def after dip) 26. Monopoly Go 27. Crash (after dip) 28. Crash (after dip) 29. Crash 30. Monopoly Go 31. Crash 32. Other (worked! 1 hour snd 45 minutes since starting)
If this is how Deca plans to keep me engaged and logged in, I’ll be avoiding ads instead. This is ridiculous. And I haven’t even done my alts’ ads today. If I hadn’t been doing this experiment, I wouldn’t have bothered with the gem gift.

Ugh, that’s terrible! I have the same problem. The game instantly crashes as soon as I click the ad button. Once you’re hit with the insta-crash, it keeps repeating. And it’s only gotten worse. Lately, the only way I’ve been able to break free from it is by using a VPN. Even that doesn’t always work. If you don’t have access to a VPN, waiting a couple of hours sometimes helps. And players have said uninstalling/reinstalling the game allows them to watch ads for a while.
I’ll give Deca your list. Maybe Monopoly Go, Travel Town, and Gardenscapes are the culprits. Or maybe Unity Ads is the problem since they’re the provider for all three adverts.
It's an amazing documentation of the ads that hopefully will help identify the bug. But it is also agonising to look at. I can’t imagine tolerating two hours' worth of ad mayhem.

Wow hawk. That is incredibly depressing reading. I admire you patience and dedication to recording all the problems you have had.
I have noticed that the instant ad crashes are back as well. Haven't seen them for a while, but now it is almost every ad that crashes. I've started watching ads earlier than usual in the hope I can strike a spot in the day where the ads will work. 🙄
Thank you so much for reporting these ads and for all the wonderful details! I gave the information to Deca last night. Hopefully, the adverts will be pulled soon.
You can add Gardenscapes to this list. Also Unity.
This crashing has been getting progressively worse for me this week. If I wasn’t so bent on getting the event currency, I’d just stop watching ads.
Understand your frustration……I have stopped watching ads because having to reload all the time gets old……I don’t have high speed internet.
Adlerist posted about this on General DragonVale 7 hours ago indicating that the change will happen. And again 6 hours ago when the change was live. There are a lot of great posts on General DragonVale from members supporting the Rift primary change and enthusiasm when it was in place. Thanks everybody for posting!
If you are experiencing ad crashes, you will probably want to download 4.30.4. Players have reported improvements.
If you are experiencing loading issues, downloading 4.30.4 could exasperate the problem. Be sure to disable Automatic App Updates/Downloads on your device.
The Deca Community Manager informed the Game Reps that there are some fixes in version 4.30.4, but did not go into detail about what the fixes are or which problems they address. It sounded minor with possible fixes that may improve things for some players.
However, there have been positive reports from iOS players who were experiencing ad crashes. If the game instantly crashes after pressing the ad button or crashes during or after an ad plays, you will probably want to download the new update. Hopefully, some of these issues have been resolved.
Calli, who has been dealing with extensive problems loading the game (constantly receiving the Connection Error message), downloaded the update, and the loading issue appears to be worse. She has only been able to open the game twice today, and the game crashed both times. For players who were already having problems loading the game, you may want to refrain from updating. If you’ve installed 4.30.4 and you’re now having difficulty opening the game, please contact support.
If you are unsure about downloading the update because you're experiencing other problems with the game’s performance, or no problems, we will try to obtain more details about the update. Please be aware that if we do receive more information, it will take several days.

I had something strange happen the other day… I received Gems & Food from “A Dragonvale Player”. I collected and sent back Gems & Food. Then I realized “A Dragonvale Player” wasn’t in my list of Friends 🤷🏼♂️ WTH?

Occasionally this happens, I imagine if the game struggles to load the social menu or if the player has unfriended you since sending the gift. I doubt it's anything like the hacker from a few months back. Were there any other gem/treat gifts in your social menu, and if so did they have correct IDs?
Calli reported that her game returned to its original state before the update. So it appears the update should not cause problems for players if they download it.

'A DragonVale Player' is usually a placeholder when the game hasn’t been able to fetch the name of the friend. Other times, the list of friends will be empty. It’s interesting that you were able to send gifts to the person, and the Free Gift buttons for gems and treats weren’t greyed out. If you continue to see A DragonVale Player in your Gifts, force close the game and reload. Hopefully, your friend’s name will show.
