**WINTER OF WOE - BONUS OBJECTIVE POINT**
As previously announced, the team will be distributing an additional point toward milestones to anyone who completed the Absorbing Man fight in the first step of the Winter of Woe.
This point will be distributed at a later time as it requires the team to pull and analyze data.
The timeline has not been set, but work has started.
There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.

Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

    Iphone 12 pro. New phone, IOS updated and game new version. Wifi and cellular network.

    Input drops are costing items, deaths, resources. This has been reported exhaustively by us summoners. The response is muted at best. Not acceptable at all. We spent so much in the preceding months and this is what we get? Between support not supporting and moderator feedback its extremely frustrating. Even Youtubers stating it it has to be true!!

    The game just didn't load. Don't leave the loading page and when you come back, it cost 1 bonus and the chosen hero returns with 50% life. My covenant wants the bonus back and if they don't return it and it costs a victory or position in the future, I go to hell after justice. If you have a game that involves a lot of money, why not fix a beast bug. With each update this game gets worse, seriously thinking about giving up and dropping for good.

    I am noticing this happening with more regularity that the game while in the loading screen lags in loading then just crashes. As a result it has cost me arena fights, losing health in AQ & AW. Not only that, but slowing my progress is Event and Side Quest. This happens at least 8 or more times a day. In addition, when Psycho-Man uses his sp1 (whether I am using him or he is the opponent) the game closes out.

    Please resolve this issue as it seems lately we as a community are experiencing issue of game stability and it is only getting worse with each update.

    Game Mode: All

    Description of the Issue: I am experiencing the same issues on both of my devices. The main issue I have is a constant server issue, with disconnection from server errors (regardless of WiFi or cellular). On my iPhone it happens regularly when I start the game up - which leads to the game taking 3+ minutes to load up. At other times it happens randomly - it affects the arena, alliance quest, monthly quest and story modes. It will disconnect and sometimes will only reconnect when I manually disconnect and reconnect to the WiFi signal. It does not affect any other apps on my devices so I know that it is definitely the MCOC app and not my device or the WiFi signal. This disconnection issue reminds me of how MCOC was a few years ago. I feel this problem is getting worse and making the game more unplayable.

    I also have issues where the game will crash. This usually happens in arena or alliance quest (which has cost me half of my health bar). The game will just shut down and kick me out. This will happen once or twice a week.

    I also have issues with lag. There are times when I press something on screen and it takes 30+seconds to respond or become responsive again. This happens once or twice daily.

    I also get issues of lag in fights where the screen will drop frame rate and slow down. This feels like it happens in almost every fight - although it seems to be worse when fighting certain characters - eg Green Goblin, Vulture..

    When fighting I also get issues with button responses. I have issues where the game doesn't respond to a single block or attack but then work fine for the rest of the match. This happens on a regular basis - maybe once every 2 or 3 fights.

    This game is too moody.
    Fighting in AQ and then doing a couple of rounds of arena or events while waiting for energy.
    Returning to AQ to continue and connection really sucks, get dropping inputs, laggy motions and defenders all aggressive.

    Close the game and taking a break before loading the game again giving quite different behavior. There must be the connectors to your servers giving so big difference in how the game are running. Or maybe the small updates you download every time the game is logging in.

    My environment is stable, are yours?

    This is completely absurd that this thread is made or comes up literally every single time there is a new update for this game. This game crashes at the loading screen when you first open it, the game modes crash the app while mid fight or even while loading the fight, usually causing the fight to count as a loss and KO to the champ you use. So at no fault to the player they automatically lose the fight and champ, especially ridiculous for AW since it’s in the season now. Are you guys going to look into or just cater to the whales?
  • Mikea117Mikea117 Posts: 96
    This is what happens on both wifi and cellular, these are from the arena a few minutes ago, this happens in every game mode and needs to be addressed. There’s no reason to not have this fixed or to even have the issues that you guys blatantly overlook.

    While the lag has reduced some since the new content was released.... just lost 2 champs to Apocalypse in AQ due to the laggy, jerky motion of the defender.

    It is basically impossible to block or dodge when the defender motion is this jerky.

    Description of the Issue: After i healed up, i put on some boosts and i went in for a fight on node 27 using warlock against havok. The loading was quite longer than the usual and then the game just crashed. I went back in to the game and found out that my champion with only half health and the first attack bonus is gone. The worst thing is, now i have heal up again and put another invulnerability boost again.

    So my game stopped crashing throughout the day, but I’m not playing as much considering all the issues. My screen however shakes throughout fights and consistently when the battle begins.

    iPhone 6, 12.5.1, WiFi, 13th feb 2021. The game just crashed three times in a row while fighting psycho man during his sp1 attack. Also has been crashing a lot lately during arenas. And the self love potions in the side quest are not activating resulting in me having an extremely tough time in love is a battle realm. Suffice to say I am getting extrexlely frustrated with these issues as they are hindering my game progression, is anything being done and if so will it be resolved in time for me to complete this months event quest and side quest?

    Defenders randomly moving quicker than expected like dropped frames catching up. Inconsistent responses to block, dext commands. Frequent connection issues making it unknown if aq or aw will loose a champion

    7th gen iPad, current iOS, WiFi is fine otherwise.

    Crashes continue, but today I’m having constant connection issues. Lagging, freezing, network errors, and I “lost” 2 arena fights I should have won easily because they timed out right before I started them. Frustrating.

    iPhone 8 latest update horrible, can anyone remember a decent update where we didn’t have lag, dropped inputs, dropping hits mid combo and getting hit, special lengths being longer from opponent so single swipe backs don’t miss heavies and short l1 attacks, seems first two weeks of every month is a write off

    Silver surfer sp3
    Psycho-man sp1 (new this month)

    What compensation will be given for not being able to complete CAV eq because of Psycho man crashes?

    Game crash upon entering Aw/AQ fight, resulting in 50% lost health (no fault of the player and no intention of exploiting the game)

    This happened to me 2 of 3 fights in AQ this morning. (I will be quitting my alliance because I’m letting them down)

    And I will probably be quitting the game completely in the next week as I’m fed up with issue not getting fixed and getting much worse.
    The most infuriating part is while kabam can’t seem to fix this issue, the least they could do is implement removing the 50% lost health when game crashes upon entering a fight, while “trying” to resolve the crashing issue.

    Such a shame cause it is a fun game

    Lots of disconnects when you enter a fight. You hit the fight button and then you get the red WiFi symbol until you ultimately disconnect. Just happened to me twice when enter boss right in war. It's not me, it's you. I was getting 100 Mbs on my WiFi connection. Also lots of crashes as soon as you enter a fight. Happens in all aspects of the game. Prior to the past few weeks this was a rare occurrence for me but in the last 2 weeks this happens a few times a day. Arena, story mode, AQ, war every where.

    Game Mode: it happens in alliance quest where we only have a few seconds of controls and then controls phase out for a few seconds and then sometimes come back and sometimes don't we'll start a match and the game will log you off
    Also happens in alliance wars and sometimes using units to purchase potions just so the game can log you off and you lose half your life going back in. Been playing this game for many years and it's never been this bad it's turning the actual experience to be volatile if you can't provide us with a product that operates properly then we must be be refunded for all purchases.I'm very close to being done with this game all together after playing for many years absolutely nothing gets done nothing gets resolved and you guys no longer compensate for those shortcomings shortcomings.

    Game just randomly crashes at any given time. Mid-fight, in the menu. It's basically wiped me out in AQ.
