Snow/Rain background issue/bug - slow motion [Under Investigation]

Any time the snow/rain background animation appears the entire fight is in slow motion. Very difficult to block and evade. Can you please look into this.

Yes. All matches with weather effects are laggy. It's been reported a few times already. Haven't seen a real response from Kabam.

In act 4 chapter 6. There's a node with a question mark (5 star) that is not charge and has1%regeneration 10730 pi which is impossible to defeat because of regeneration

I am getting the same issue on my iPad Air after downloading the latest update. The weather background fights are extremely slow. It makes quests and arenas almost unbearable to play.

Vortenus

Same here. Also iPad Air.
Maps with weather effects are unplayable.

Missy

Same here ipad air after update

Viz_Norvis

Have the same issue iPad Air 2, game is unplayable , is there a way to disable this animation?

Stljab

I'm on an iPhone 6. It's unbearable.

Hello this is my first time here but this bug is just too costly to keep experiencing in game and if its happen in AQ or AW or tough arena or quest matches its instant death plz fix it asap thx

I also use an iPad Air, and man of all the things that could have gone wrong, why'd it have to be this? The game is nearly impossible for me to play now because of the insane lag and input delay. I sincerely hope this gets addressed right away. This is borderline game-breaking.

Danny

Yep same here,didn't really expect anything less than a game to get worse after update...

i cant even move on snow field.

dear @Kabam Miike Im having same issue with snow field. Using iphone 6 plus. Fps is drop like hell hard to move or hit and block. Plz fix this asap or my suggest is to remove snow effect will make game run smooth. Thx

Paddie

Same issue for me in iPad

Looking through posts for an acknowledgement

andyafco

Same for me on iPad air. Snow makes the game unplayable.

I'm over 300K rating and yet to see ANY weather ever. Not that I want to, wondering if it's due to a low end phone

I believe that Android does not have the snow/rain. I am on Android and have never had snow/rain either.

Hey everyone. I'm really sorry that you all are seeing these frame rate drops with the weather effects. I'm taking this to the team right now, and I'll get back to you as soon as I have an update. Thanks so much for bearing with us on this.

I mainly play on an IPad Air aswell and i have the same lag problem with the weather. Had to go back to my IPhone 5s for now but it's good to know the problem has been recognized.

Not sure if it's possible to disable the weather effects while this is under investigation. But, sure would be nice. Winter weather is unplayable on iPad/iPhone.

Thanks Wolf for responding to the issue quickly and acknowledging my thread. Can't you guys just release a hotfix release that disables weather effects for the time being? I'm sure it's just a configuration value somewhere (e.g. "enableWeatherEffects=true")...have the devs set it to "false" for now and release a new build. It's much faster to just disable the effect for now than to try to figure out the root issue. No one will miss the weather effects.

The overall game feels faster overall except it's literally unplayable when these levels are generated. The only way to avoid complete death is to close the game and take the half-HP penalty, which is really going to suck in AQ/AW.

Paddie

Thanks for picking up!

Will be a hard job staying alive in AW and AQ if we get unlucky on levels, and we're gonna get those levels several times every time.

I also play on iPad Air 2 and levels with weather effects are completely unplayable right now!

silvy696

Please add an option to disable weather effects. They run fine on my device, but I find them to be a nuisance.

Thanks!

The same happens to me.

DarkestDestroyer

Really weird...using iPhone 5s and my fights in the snow have all been fine.

Not had any lag at all, playing master quests.

i also

Ipad air, same issues since the update, unplayable lag on any map with weather features.
Has this been confirmed by the team to fix? Very popular arena starting tomorrow
