Battlegrounds and Latency Issues [merged]

Deamon1337 · May 2023

still the same issues, cant ban/pick champs every 2nd match

MR_61088 · May 2023

Nothing changed on my side.

ItsyaboyStephy05 · May 2023

Nothing here either, this doesn't seem like an issue you just solve in 30 minutes with a hotfix, maybe it's best to take time and just cancel the current season/delay the next one.

Kkostis9 · May 2023

There will be BG compensations? cuz everytime i want to play i lose because of internet connection issue. I cant select, loading problems before and after macht and that just for one macht, im just wasting my time and resources for nothing 😒

id1575 · May 2023

But man we don't care about compensations at this point, just move your back to fix the game, that's so frustrating i lost 2 matches in a row and the last round of both i got connection issues and had to do my fights with 40s left...

WinterFields · May 2023

I can at least play without being disconnected now, but it still occasionally chooses my first draft for me

(My first match after posting this I got disconnected)

Hello Summoners,

We have been tracking the conversations around Battleground connectivity and are working to resolve the issue ASAP.

As the investigations progresses, it seems most likely, at this point in time, that these issues are related to an overall latency issue but is most noticeable in the Battlegrounds game mode.

The team is pushing a potential fix right now and is requesting feedback about the impact this has on your game-play experience; please let us know if this alleviates any issues over the next 30 minutes.

Thank you!
Nope. My opponent put a hulking down on defense and I had omega sentinel and wiccan left to choose from. Of course, the white spinning icon makes a celebrity appearance and the game decides I should use omega sentinel for attack.

Match lost, and nothing appears fixed.

10 mins ago.

My favorite is when you select a Wiccan, the white wheel won’t let you lock it in and then you get a OS instead, because that makes sense.

Cancel the season at this point.

Ironslayer · May 2023

Not just energy refills, i have had multiple instances where i am on last token fight to get ahead to next tier, but then the wheel of death appears locks you out of UI and decides you don't get to go ahead, thereby not only making me lose an assured token, but now I have to win 2 fights to compensate and with matchmaking in BG already a bust no guarantee what mammoth i am going up against. It's a VICIOUS cycle.

Standardman1989 · May 2023

Even with the Maj it's unplayable so unfortunately it would be better to stop the season and give the same rewards as last season if it's possible I'm not sure.

As worries the internet button arrives I can't select the bans sometimes it poses my defenders and often in inferiority of class or fights not possible like arcangel vs King groot.

This is exemple of bug

SirGamesBond · May 2023

9000 EM
30 refills
150k tokens
10 victory shield
10 shuffle signet
Luke cage Emote
Emma Frost Emote

That's it. Not much.

DL864 · May 2023

At least if it's gonna auto pick it should be the highest pi champs not the worst possible ones

Ah yeah we should start making mcoc hubs where people will come together to play the game
Totally possible

Trafalgarwar96 · May 2023

It s a scandal! After the gwenpool events where kabam received a lot of money, the game is worst than before.....

If anything it seems hard coded to pick class disadvantage… totally regret not grinding out VT at the beginning of the season. It’s barely playable. They need to cancel the season, compensate generously for ignoring this for seasons now, but actual fixes in place, and relaunch only after it’s not completely rage quit inducing broken.

Cyporg · May 2023

I agree with OP, the game mode is basically unplayable right now. Every 3rd matchup or so it freezes and I can’t select champs. They end up getting auto selected and of course lose the match since I don’t have correct counters. Compensation is warranted for wasted elder marks at least.

Midnightfox · May 2023

This is at this point ridiculous. Compensation is a must. Waste of elders marks 2 matches in a row. Kabam fixed the mf game. Tired of disconnect losses

Sairam44 · May 2023

Compensation is needed

Magonus · May 2023

Maybe it's just me (across 2 diff devices, one on Wi-Fi one on 4G) but I am seeing a big increase in the appearance of the spinning wheel and the little bad Wi-Fi icon thingy....... game is still playable with delays. Not sure if things will go downhill once new content lands tomorrow.

Trafalgarwar96 · May 2023

NOW!
the reason are known to all of us🤣

Generalzod163 · May 2023

I with all honesty dont care about all the other stuff, but I would like elders marks back.
Every time a person has failed inputs, the freeze screens etc you loose 90 elders marks each time.
I purchase that stuff and now loosing it with not even having the match done.

They must just cut the season short because of this absurd game play now, send out elders mark comp (Not 300 Elders Marks WAY WAY MORE ) and start the new season as scheduled and ENSURE that the issues are fixed for next season and running "as intended"
That is my 2 cents, as the game mode is unplayable and I am sure a lot of people that actually win the match because of issues from other players and getting up the ranks with no issues at all as shown here under with pics as a sample.

Coppin · May 2023

If u don't play it, u wouldn't need compensation

Generalzod163 · May 2023

I should make it a discussion lol
As this is unfair for players across the board lol

Colinwhitworth69 · May 2023

Why cancel? Just stop playing if you’re having issues. Not mandatory.

Because it’s not mandatory, it should be allowed to continue it’s busted state? And because it should be canceled players should loose access to the ability to earn the VT rewards others achieved this season?

Not sure how that logic tracks in any other business with a failed product. If they want to keep customers happy at a restaurant they offer to either provide you with a free meal or minimally a new meal when the restaurant messes up your order. New meal isn’t an option at this point so…

whyme_why6 · May 2023

I play on a galaxy s21 5g and it beens happening alot for me too it started to happen alot of the weekend and sunday was the worst for me

Yodabolt21 · May 2023

I personally have stopped playing this season. I got to 48 points in GC and decided to hold off for now. Every other match was bugged. I got "lucky" in my last 2 wins where it looks like the other guy had the same issues and I won by default. That sucks. I lost probably 3 of 5 in GC that way as well (the other 2 were because I got beat).

It sounds crappy to say, but quit playing the mode. Yes it may not be "fair" to some that haven't started or having difficulty moving up, but this is the way the world works. When Syctallis was bugged for the first week, no compensation was given to those of us that explored the quest before she was fixed. It is what it is.

Ideally, they would cancel the season and just give us what we got last season. While it may not be mandatory, it's also not possible to achieve what you would have last season with the connection issues. Losing a match isn't so much the problem is that they take away a badge making it virtually impossible to progress up the tiers unless you're willing to perpetually invest on a victory shield.

I gather that connection issues are affecting the player base disproportionately. As someone who lives far from where their infrastructure is likely located, at the best of times, I have connectivity issues to the point where I can't even complete AW placements for the alliance without force quitting to unfreeze the UI. BGs is currently a nightmare.

Would you give this advice if you had not yet progressed through VT?

Yes I would because I personally do not like wasting resources like energy or elder marks. That's why I quit playing them for now.

Pandingo · May 2023

I have also just stopped playing. My alliance doesn't even play anymore anyway. The two star issue was such a big deal to everybody when this is the real issue. The nerf accounts never got past gamma anyway. It was way mismanaged in priority of issues.
