**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.

Dash Back After Special Not working [Fix in Progress]

    I downloaded the update and discovered most of the champs are not reacting accordingly, e.g mordo and daredevil just stand there after the opponent has been stunned by their sp 1, the same thing happens to storm, Guillotine after her sp 2 also stands there and doesn’t move, Vision ist still broken and am still yet to discovered more of these bugs. Am using the latest os 11 on Ipad air 4 . U got stop kidding the player Kabam. It’s not fair that after every patch, there are new glitches, it’s very annoying and makes players who have played the game for 2 years to quit. U glitching us on crystals don’t glitch us on the game. Please address this!!!!!

    this is a fix that requires engineering time!

    This means it won't be fixed until they can push a new update to the app store (next month).

    The conspiracy theorist in me makes me wonder if this bug was not introduced to distract everyone from the problems with AW....


    Oh right.... this happens in AW too... never mind...

    Funny thing is, if you read 15.1 release notes this was supposedly FIXED for 'some' characters!
    Fixed an issue where players were unable to take any action after using Special Attacks of some Champions
    https://playcontestofchampions.com/v15-1-release-notes/

    This happens with ANY of my champs in ANY game mode when I have the opponent pinned against the wall and launch SP1 or SP2.
    iPhone 7+ iOS 11
    iPad Mini-4 iOS 11

    I think they fixed it by changing some champions with all champions

    This is ****. Pure ****. They fixed parry for the AI...you can hit a target holding a block and be parried. For us you can time it right and it's not a parry. On the dash back it keeps any hero from finishing. @Kabam Miike I don't know how you keep your job when you think something is funny when an apology from the company and making ammends is appropriate. I'm embarrassed for you and your company for your behavior.

    Hey Everybody, I have some good news!

    The team was able to identify the problem that was causing the delay in any actions being taken following the use of a special attack, and have just pushed a fix for the issue. This will not require a new update. It will however, take about 30 minutes before it is out to everybody.

    You'll need to completely close and then re-open the Game to ensure that the fix is enabled on your device.

    For those that are curious, this was a knock on effect from a bug fix for players being able to accidentally cancel out of a Special Attack by dashing/blocking in the middle of a Special Attack. We had a contingency plan in place in case there were any issues with the fix and because of that, were able to get this fix in place very quickly.

    Thank you all for your patience, and we're very sorry for any inconvenience that this issue has caused.

    Thank you miike. Can we take another look at parry now? Seems like parry timing is very off when the opponents dash in. Thanks.

    So this doesn't need an update, but all the other game breaking bugs did? Weird ain't it.
    But again, are your updates being beta tested or not?

    Everyone needs to go and rate this a 1* on the App Store and leave a bad review, as well as not buy any of the “special offers” that Kabam try and tempt us with. They wanna try and hit our pockets, we need to hit theirs!

    Thanks for the quick fix, but next time, because there will most definately be a next time. Don't leave us hanging and let a thread get up to 14 or more pages before you say anything. Good day sir.

    You guys are all ruthless. This issue was pointed out yesterday and the fix is coming today. Give credit where credit is due. This didn't take weeks or months to fix.

    We only JUST found out that miracles happen and the fix is coming today .... players were frustrated due to how bugs like this have been handled in the past ... taking a month or more to fix (i.e., double evade bug, power control champs like Vision bug which is still awaiting fix).

    I am most certainly thankful for Kabam dev team jumping on a fix for this issue as fast as they did. Mad props.

    Exactly, I really find this odd. Look how fast they fixed this compared to the double evade issue.

    If it does get fixed, great!

    But I'll believe it when I see it.

    While this isn't the place to talk about it but will happen with legend titles this month because of this? Personally my only free time to sit down and do it was last night and the effects of this bug was greatly felt. While I still finished in a good time I can see others finishing in much better time without this issue. Thank you for your time.

    Now is solved, enjoy all!

    Thanks @Kabam Miike Good job this time :P
  • I have had same issues with my iPad with a lot of my characters mostly in Aw and AQs cost me lots of heals I thought it was from lag
  • StrayPoolStrayPool Posts: 98
    @Kabam Miike It seems not all is yet fixed - or more exactly, this fix is not implemented across all fields. It's nearly 2 hours since your mention that a solution would be enacted in the next 30 minutes or so, and the issues with after-special delay persist in mine - and a few friends' - games. So, I don't know if it is a matter of time, or if the fix was not universal, but to be sure I've restarted the system twice and uninstalled and reinstalled once, testing matches in between each step to see the timing myself. Still, special attacks render my own character completely catatonic and unresponsive - and now, my Gwenpool's blocking appears to have a "wind-up". She raises her hands to shield, and almost a second later the collector doll appears. During two of my test matches, before the doll appeared but while her hands were up, an enemy medium attack struck me as though block was not being held. I hope these are just related glitches, but here they are for your consideration.

    Thanks for the response and quick fix, I think this is how most of us would like to see issues handled in the future.

    Some type of response rather than being frustrated while left in the dark, when we can expect to see such a major problem resolved and a fix pushed in a timely manner for such a major issue.

    Thanks again and keep up the great content.

    We totally understand that, but sometimes we just don't have information to share. We would love to be able to update you guys constantly on any topic, but we can only do so when there is new information to share, and we do our best to make sure that we keep you all updated on any issues or topics as progress is made or information is made available!

    In a case like this where we were able to take quick action to fix a problem, it was a lot easier for us to let you all know what's happening, but in the case of some bugs or issues, this can take a little longer. Sometimes, investigation or testing can take longer than we would all hope it would, and that means we just don't have any information to share with you all. This doesn't mean that we're not making progress, just that we don't have any information on progress to post!
  • i use an ipad, having same issues as everyone, i can't dash back, when i use specials across all heroes - some randomly work & others do not, leaving me wide open to get crushed. it's especially bad when combined with no dash back after using an sp...this update is TERRIBLE!!!
  • Sith_LordSith_Lord Posts: 230 ★★
    Ummmm, yeah.... Nothing fixed at all yet, pertaining to this. Champs still cannot dash backwards after performing a special move.
  • Ok this one's starting to happen.. Thor's s1 failing to fully activate , it also happened with my 5* hulk buster. S1 makes the sound doesn't activate bug. Every so often in heroic
  • Sith_LordSith_Lord Posts: 230 ★★
    Thought you said it would be resolved in 30 mins, an hour ago via your post @Kabam Miike? Nothing has been fixed on my end, or those in my alliance.
