Hey all. Checking in here to clear up some stuff.

The reports about lag are being looked into. We've mentioned that in a few different threads now.

As for the videos you posted about AI reaction time, I'll talk to the team about it and get back to you here.

Finally, there is way too much off-topic discussion and debate going on in here. Please only comment in this thread if you're posting new information/videos/screenshots that will help us with the investigation. Comments involving conspiracy theories or speaking on other player's opinion's etc etc, do nothing but bloat the thread and make it harder for us to locate the useful comments.

I'll post an update in here once as soon as I know more about the AI reaction reports. Thanks!

I can you not know already. Theres about 20 post about those issues. If you got nothing to say or constructive insight about it don't come out saying the same random thing. Where have you been for the last month..... smh

I've been reporting these issues for a long time. They seem to get better, then an update or maintenance happens, and it gets worse again.

What I am noticing more lately is that I am not blocking or getting out of a block quickly enough. Regular block is too slow. If I am blocking and then swipe back to evade, either I drop the block and get hit, or I keep blocking. If I try to evade a heavy attack, I most likely can't stop blocking, and I get hit. This is with the faster AI like in Act 5. It has been worse over the last 2 weeks.

Something keeps slowing down my controls. I even tried resetting my iPad completely back to factory defaults, but it didn't fix the problem.

Very well written, this addresses a lot of issues I have been concerned about. The ai can defy most game mechanics.

Wish they could somehow revert mechanics,controls, graphics back to pre-12.0.

I would also like to point out that the only advantage we had over the AI was to finish a combo with a special. The AI still can't do that, but they hit so freaking hard your dead in one combo anyways. That advantage is really negligible.

I hope the fix comes soon the bugs are really getting tiring

Yeah. I pretty much quit the game because the glitches got so bad. It’s a shame too. I used to lead an alliance. I put someone else in charge and left the game. I can’t do it anymore. I’m pretty much at a point where the only way I can advance, with the game as glitchy as it is, is to spend money. Most of the stories I’m trying to do are at a level where if you mess up once, you’re pretty much dead. When I’m missing evades and parry’s left and right because the game is stuttering all the time, that just ain’t gonna work. I’ve been waiting for too long for Kabam to fix these problems. Since 12.0, it’s been one thing after another. I should have quit before when the double evade issue was going on for like 2 months. I almost did. Now I am definitely out of the game. It’s not fun anymore. I’m always just angry at the game. Oh well. Too bad they couldn’t get it together. Nice to have the extra free time though.

Also many time we hit special and can just hear sound of special 1 or special 2... but at actual our special meter get used but no special not happen...

Also its worthless to bring champions like MODOK who intreapt even special 1... and block the basic functionality of combo patern... its pathatic...

I've been watching this thread because it also impacts me as well, every single one of these things. It seems to have gotten worse in the last week.

This is really "entertaining",to loose an easy fight in the arena,i just hit the block of the ai,i got parried and stunned,without any reasons.i do not even want to talk about the awful fights in the act5,they should be challenging,but doable with r4 5*,r5 4* heroes and with skills,but this just really annoying,nothing more......

tutyimutyi · January 2018

There is a big silence about the issues.why?there is no update,so there is no fix.much more milk from the whales,probaly lots of them didn't do the act5 yet.

SW second special is being blocked after a combo. Thought is was just me for a while but then there is no way my timing is off that many times. Please check her and fix her please. Galaxy S8 Plus

First of all I would like to say that it is obvious that the a.i. gets tuned differently on a regular basis to deal with defending in multiple ways. Kabam knows how our gameplay progresses and has people playing the game daily for them. It is a bit frustrating when you can get comfortable with a specific playing/fighting style.

With that being said. All of the examples in the videos by the poster were not bugs or delays or lags. They were just examples of poor timing. Once you are fighting champions of that level they not only have quicker a.i.'s, but smarter as well. I've encountered every problem shown in those videos, and have made every one of them go away by either reacting quicker, or changing the way I retaliate to certain openings.

If their is a true disruption of gameplay, I do believe it should, and will be addressed by Kabam. As I have seen it always is.

Tell me how someone is supposed to "react quicker" and "play smarter" in these situations? Please, I'm all ears.

When instant reactions aren't good enough you know they're giving you an impossible task.

Alright everybody,

I've been looking through this thread again, and I have to shut it down. Most of the issues that are being brought up now are not related to anything that this thread was about, some of the things being brought up are not bugs at all, some are performance related, and some are not.

If you have a specific issue, please post it in a thread dedicated to that subject, but general threads like this are not helpful, and don't allow us to gather information that helps us to remedy the problems.
