This discussion has been closed.
Comments
Device Operating System: (8.0)
Cellular or WiFi: Happens on both cellular or Wi-Fi
Game Version Installed: 18.1
Game Mode: Story Quests, Event Quests, Arena, Alliance Quest and Alliance War.
Description of the Issue: The game loose some frame right while the opponent charges at me so I often end miss the parry timing and get hit. The lags are even more evident in the Labyrinth where this kind of issues are really frustrating. I've fight 90' Ciclope a couple of weeks ago and the game kept lagging before his L1 or meanwhile I was doing a combo and caused me missing the combo and get hit.
Android 5.1.1
Both cellular data and wifi
Mcoc 18.0
Parry doesn't work sometimes.
When opponent is hitting heavy attack, my champ won't go backwards. Screen goes numb at that time.
And sometimes my champ rush towards the opponent while hitting specials or heavy attacks.
Os Android: 7.1
Cellular or WiFi: happens on both
Game version: latest version
Game mode: dungeons aq aw arena eq story mode
Description of issue: parry and evade not working properly, defender is wiffing a lot, not being able to land a proper 5 hit combo, defender blocking specials before specials are even being fired, too much lag, taking minimum 1 minute to load anything in game and many more. Iceman getting over 5% damage when in ice armor.
Device Operating System: 7.0
Cellular or WiFi: Both, but much more frequently when im off wifi using my unlimited data plan provided by Verizon (even with full signal).
Game Version Installed: 18.0.1
Game Mode: Event Quests, Alliance Quest, and Alliance War.
Description of the Issue: I experience it quite constantly. Also, it really doesn't seem to matter what champs I bring to the fight. But the lag is throwing off my parry and I feel like I'm letting down 29 other people because of bugs you haven't been able to address for your android users for quite some time now.
Please Kabam. I'm honestly not to sound snarky here, but let's just be honest for once - you're making a killing with Marvel's IP. Please hire more developers, support staff, and Beta testers. This is starting to be more a hassle than it's worth. If you didn't have the Marvel roster, this average fighting game would never have been on any of my devices (and I'd imagine about 75 to 90 percent of the other people who installed the game would tend to agree with me.
I'm begging you. Please. Reinvest your profits you've made from selling crazy amounts of units and GMFC to players. Just fix the bugs. I don't REALLY care if you can't add any new content for the next 6 months if that means you're able to comb through what must be incredibly fragmented code at this point. If you do so, and somehow get this potentially amazing game working equally for both Apple and Google, I truly believe the sky's the limit for your company, and I hope you all realize that and are playing the long game here (which clearly involves not alienating half your fanbase and getting them back into your (semi) good graces....heck, just give 50 legend title for the fastest on iOS and the 50 fastest on Android. That would be a good start so half us righly feel we have an actual chance to compete with those on devices where the game natively runs much faster.
For the love that all of us players have for the heroes depicted in your game _ please, don't blow all the good will you've created. Please.
Sincerely,
Nate Johnson
I dash in to attack and after two hits my champ just stops and stands still despite the fact that I'm still tapping
Device Operating System: Android 8.0.0
Cellular or WiFi: Both and 2 different wifi connection (home & work)
Game Version Installed: 18.0.1
Game Mode: All
Description of the Issue: Game lag between S/M hit to SP 1/2 hit resulting in block/parry by opponent and immediate hits taken = loss of health/life. swipe back on numerous occasions doesn't happen, champ has immediate hits taken = loss of health/life. opponents ignore hit and attack anyway. general lag resulting in slow game play.
Most of these issues have been around for months and months. We keep crying out for fixes but nothing is forth coming. This is not acceptable from the reported #1 Action game.
Device Operating System: Oreo 8.1 the issues began after updating to thus
Cellular or WiFi: Both
Game Version Installed: Current version
Game Mode: All.
Description of the Issue: I updated to Oreo 8,1 I get constant fps lag and it is unresponsive it has made the game UNPLAYABLE. However if I turn the screen on and off, the FPS becomes ok, not 60 more like 20-30 and it becomes responsive with a tiny bit of lag but enough to prevent parry from working properly. Also when the champions are running towards eachother at the start their movement is choppy (back and forth). At the same time as updating I also changed some settins on the NOVA launcher which could of been a cause. Please fix this. (in addition to this, but not gamebreaking, I also cannot stay logged in I have to log in again every time I open the game up)
Well said!!

I'm still playing to complete AW season 2 for my alliance. I'm considering to quite after the war season. Thanks
WiFi and Data 4g lte
Versions 5-7.1.1
Been having all kinds of issues on and off since 12.0, and it's been happening with many different phones, and versions.
Things like.
Lag in the beginning of the fight
Choppy animation in the beginning of the fight
Random slowdowns throughout the fight
Inputs not registering forward or block
Champions charging forward randomly
Champions moving backwards randomly
Champions firing off random attacks
Champions firing off random heavies
Champions firing off random specials
Specials not working or not working properly
Refusing to block
Dropped blocks or getting blown through
Getting stuck in block
Not moving after a block
Not moving after a special
Not to mention all of the issues there are with the enemy ai which can turn godlike and just destroy you and evade or block everything and read and react a million times faster than us.
Which makes some fights a buggy frustrating unfair mess that makes you want to break your phone or stop playing or quit in general especially when you factor in some of the responses we get from the administrators and support.
I get that some of these take time to fix but some of these have been going in for far too long and have languished and ignored for months if not years.
Despite being under investigation forever with tons of evidence provided by us and tons of money you make from us should make it easier to fix and these are just the combat related buggs and issues that I've been experiencing not the all of them.
I just wish for this game to work like it used to work, the gameplay and stability have gone down hill and I'm holding on to a faint Ray of hope that that it will get better, that they will take the game down for an extended period of time and squash all these buggs and issues and upgrade and improve the servers before it gets past the point of no return, before another player boycott before another mass Exodus.
