Bug Description:

22,500 crom coins were removed from my account.

I play Conan on the X-Box Series S and I had a crom coin balance of 17500 (+/- 500).

Until last night (28/05/2022) I have only ever used my Xbox for Conan. Last night I signed into my xbox live account on my PC and downloaded Conan from the xbox Market Place. When I launched the game and attempted to join a server, it would let me join but immediately prompt me with this message; "You have been banned due to an invalid payment transaction. Your in-game virtual currencies are not in a valid state. You can unban your account by purchasing Conan coins:

-4,989" (this was the balance it said I had)

I then tried to sign in on my xbox where I was given the same message. Even more alarming, I get this message when I try to use single player, so I was completely barred from playing the game unless I bought another 4,989 crom coins.

Steps I took to solve the issue:

  1. Restart Game

  2. Forced the game to Sync to cloud.

  3. Uninstalled Conan from my PC and signed out my Xbox account on the PC. Then repeated steps 1 and 2.

  4. Deleted save local save data from xbox console to force a full sync from the cloud.

  5. Completely removed Conan from Xbox and re installed.

  6. I purchased the Crom Coins required to unban my account.

Action 6 worked and my Account is unbanned. However my remaining balance for crom coins is 50.

The math is as follow:

17,511 - 22,500 = (-4,989)
(-4,989) + 5039 (the amount I purchased) = 50

The sum I am owed is:

17,511 + 5,039 = 22,550 (+/- 500)

So it is clear, 100% of all my purchases have been posted on my credit card statements. There are absolutely no invalid payment transactions. I cannot ask the credit company to have the payments refunded as they are already posted and funds transferred. I have double checked all statements and Microsoft purchase confirmations.

So as of now my account is owed 22,500 crom coins, plus or minus 500. It can be minus for all I care at this point.

Bug Reproduction:

I have only ever used my Xbox for Conan.

I signed into my xbox live account on my PC and downloaded Conan from the xbox Market Place.

When I launched the game and attempted to join a server, it would let me join but immediately prompt me with this message:

“You have been banned due to an invalid payment transaction. Your in-game virtual currencies are not in a valid state. You can unban your account by purchasing Conan coins: -4,989” (this was the balance it said I had)

I then tried to sign in on my xbox where I was given the same message. Even more alarming, I get this message when I try to use single player, so I was completely barred from playing the game unless I bought another 4,989 crom coins.

CONCLUSION:

My account is owed 22,500 (+/- 500) Crom Coins. I can provide proof of purchase, payment, and posted transactions.

Some of these transactions would have been from months ago so theres no logical reason for payment discrepancies now.
