I’m suddenly having crashes for the first time—once while autofighting Master EQ, and just now in UC EQ. Game literally crashes closed at start of fight. Current crash was 1.1 AV path in UC.
Is this the type of crash that’s arisen with this update? Is the hot fix supposed to address it?
I am experienced more lag today during fight in AW, I don't know when you fix this I am getting lag in every AQ , AW , areans and quests and one more issue when I click on profile for mastery update or profile pic change there freeze blank I have to wait to open it sometimes I have to restart game again similar happens when I tap on options bar alliance or inventory etc.
- Where are these crashes being experienced? My game is not crashing, it's just extreme lag. - - Are these crashes happening after long periods of play? (Lots of fights, arenas, etc.) Again, not crashing, just lag. - - Is the lag present right away or does it build over time? There is some lag at first, but it gets noticeably worse the more you play without restarting the game. - - Is there lag is specific areas, modes, screens or is it everywhere? It's everywhere except during fights. Once the fight loads, I don't get any lag until after the fight is over. It's especially bad on the pre-fight screen that shows the two champs facing off against each other as well as the node description screens. Often times, the pre-fight countdown timer will jump more than 10 seconds (e.g. 0:52 to 0:40 seconds remaining) while waiting for an element to load. You'll see the loading wheel where the characters are supposed to be. Scrolling through items in the inventory and stash is also very difficult, as there is significant lag as you scroll down through your items. - - What device are you playing on? Google Pixel 5
Device- LG V60 ThinQ 5G OS- Android 12 Problems on both wifi and cellular.
I am experiencing lag with- Menus- icons slow to load in slow. Fights- In the middle of fights, the fight lags for like half a second. Like in Karatemikes video around the 2:45 mark- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2AA11VXM3c Starting fights- Champs load in lags a bit. Clicking on paths during quests, there is many times it takes forever.
I should preface that I haven't had these problems very long. They've been happening more often. I wasn't having them when the original input issues started either.
The only input issues I tend to have are with strikers. The button doesn't seem to want to work half the time. Other than that, I seem to be missing blocks more often. But I can't pinpoint if it's me or the game. I have tried recording but can't ever seem to catch it.

Using verizon? I have the exact same phone and very similar issues as well, although i do have an issue with my characters wanting to randomly dash at the defender. Also, arena is such a pain to scroll through my champs and select my team. Screen nearly freezes up and takes a while to load up the roster.

I am on AT&T. I also have the lag in scrolling my champs on the champion screen.
More lag. Dropped inputs and at times unable to execute basic dex and parry again. Internet speed isn’t the greatest but also not awful.
Full WiFI, snuck home for lunch and no one else on the router. Other than usual VPN no other programs running. What is going on with the game?
Dr. Zola
Re-jiggered router and tried it again for a nice speed boost. Stats look pretty solid (screenshot taken of speedtest during pause in fight).
Game still laggy as $&@#. Literally frame rate breaking down in middle of fight like Im watching it with a zoetrope. Of course, that affects controls negatively.
- Are these crashes happening after long periods of play? (Lots of fights, arenas, etc.) It happens prob every 45min to 1hr for me. Sometimes within 5min after app close and restart.
- Is the lag present right away or does it build over time? Right away prob 80-90% of the time.
- Is there lag is specific areas, modes, screens or is it everywhere? It’s everywhere, seriously. I get the same scrolling lag as video shows. - What device are you playing on? iPhone 11plus max, iOS v.15.5, latest patch.
This was happening before the latest patch. Had a few paths in Variant 8 3.2. Venompool boss just stutters and lags like crazy.
I just was stuck on AQ loading screen and lost half of my champ due “lag”. Plus I’m seeing a lot of “immune” in MEQ when trying to parry. How much code was broken in the last week?
Where to begin... OK, so any Manual Gameplay has lag... but my Critical problem is AQ and Arenas... AQ Attackers will inexplicably dash back when simple basic Light Attacks are being used! It's impossible to get combo's and then when I try to do a a Special Atrack, it misfires and misses altogether!
Been playing almost 6 years now and this morning in AQ this happened... My next fight w Killmonger was a joke!
I've burned thru my resources (all in the last 2-3 weeks) and my once Full Stash is near empty!
Kabam should look at what RESOURCES (War & AQ Revives& Potions) a MONTH AGO and restore everyone to that Status!
In 6 years, I have NEVER had the problems experienced now! In Arena yesterday I had this happen... I am co-Leader on a Team together for over 5years... we now have folks getting ready to retire cuz the Game is Unplayable and a waste of time and Money
This was bad before the last Big Compensation 10days ago(???)... it IMMEDIATELY got exponentially Worse! Failed Blocks, uncontrollable dashbacks, combo's lost, Special Attacks failed and OMG the VALUABLE RESOURCES wasted just to finish well for Team Rewards...
This is Pathetic! And Worse... no idea wtf Kabam is doing about it!
- Where are these crashes being experienced? Side Quests, AW and AQ. Especially harmful last AQ I was starting a fight against a mini-boss, game crashed, restart game and I've lost half of my health. Since there are no more weekly compensation AQ health pots, that game error costs me Glory to add health back.
- Are these crashes happening after long periods of play? (Lots of fights, arenas, etc.) Happens sometimes immediately, and sometimes after long periods of play.
- Is the lag present right away or does it build over time? Both.
- Is there lag is specific areas, modes, screens or is it everywhere? Lag is most noticeable, in swiping up and down between all of the champs, or swiping in inventory. Also switching screens has some lag.
- What device are you playing on? Currently on a Mipad 4 tablet, and a Pixel phone, both optimized as stock Android. While my tablet is strictly a mid-range device spec wise, the Pixel has more than enough processing power to handle this game, but I see the same lag amongst all devices. I suspect part of it is a memory leak that is still happening. Also, it is never a Wi-Fi problem on my network, where I have excellent signals and near gigabyte speed. So the constant disconnects with the red wifi signal in game, is a server side problem.
So far I've only crashed once since the new update, having played a few hours consistently, but even before the update crashes weren't too common. My last crash happened while loading into an arena fight.
Overall the game tends to gradually lag more and more as I spend more time playing, in pretty much all areas, but the most severe lag is definitely in arenas, when scrolling through my roster, attempting to select champions to make a team out of, and the entire process of getting into the actual fight, all the way up to the screen loading into the fight.
Occasionally my game will completely freeze mid-fight for a few seconds, sometimes longer, before resuming.
Completely restarting the game usually fixes the lag, until it inevitably starts again.
The lag, for me, has worsened significantly in certain areas since the last update.
I can't scroll through anything without the screen freezing for ~3 seconds EVERY 1-5 SECONDS (not exaggerating). This includes chat, rewards info sections, stash, alliance help, crystals section, and champ section. It's pretty damn frustrating.
The lag in the rest of the game is similar to pre-update MCOC (meaning still pretty bad lol - fights freeze frequently and there's ridiculous loading times between navigational actions).
Lags are experienced through out the entire game. The horrible one is input lag for almost 6 monts the game registers in average 1/6 of my swipes. It is to say that it's everywhere, something as simple as swiping through the menu, inventory, champions inventory. It's insane how much dexterity, the mastery I use the most (I've been playing the game for 7 years), has been rendered almost useless because of the input lag. Aside from evading SPs I use it to trigger intercepts for almost 6 months after completing a dexterity I need to swipe forward 3 to 5 times so champions can intercept. Using your logic, if I need to swipe 3 to 5 time so the input can be registered you can assess that I'm going to get destroyed by the opponent and probably lose the fight as result. Even training in real of legend is horrible as the game is incapable of giving me a stable level of response. I don't know if the games old and crappy graphic engine is incapable of being optimized with 120Hz phones screens and touche rates of 600+Hz. Which is probably my supposition on why the game has been getting crappier and more unstable as phones get faster and more powerful. I own a OnePlus 9 Pro MCOC is the only in my library having that many problems.
I’ve upgraded to a new WiFi6 router and new modem on high speed (400+ Mbps) service and I still get regular lag, frame rate issues and occasional input drop. I’ve concluded this is all just part of the experience no matter the hardware on my end. Yes, it happens in VFX and node heavy moments (Warlock vs. Warlock EoP as a prime example). I’ve resigned myself to this as an enduring part of the game and possibly why the team has allowed readily available revive farming in some quests (which is a pretty decent compromise).
Are efforts still being made to fix lag issues? I play on Android and have continued to have issues since June. Seems to occur most frequently during arena and War, but does still happen fairly frequently during other game modes.
I notice this occurs more in my newer phones (galaxy s20 and s22) even when I set the screen refresh rate to 60 ghz. It doesn't occur that often in my S10.
And yes, kabam needs to bring back compensation until they fix it.

CRS brings me back to this when game restarts.

Event Quests, at first it was just Wiccan, now it crashed to Anti-Venom
- Are these crashes happening after long periods of play? (Lots of fights, arenas, etc.)
No, I had just reset the game after not have played for an hour.
- Is the lag present right away or does it build over time?
Both, I notice it the longer I play then we the opponent starts to just appear where I am with no time to do anything I give the game a break.
- Is there lag is specific areas, modes, screens or is it everywhere?
The lag is everywhere, not one place I haven’t experienced it.
- What device are you playing on?
Apple iPhone 12 Pro
15.5 Firmware
On both Cellular and Wi-Fi have the crashes happened.
2) lagging in between fights in aq
It happens prob every 45min to 1hr for me. Sometimes within 5min after app close and restart.
- Is the lag present right away or does it build over time?
Right away prob 80-90% of the time.
- Is there lag is specific areas, modes, screens or is it everywhere?
It’s everywhere, seriously. I get the same scrolling lag as video shows.
