**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.

    Previously a slight drame drop and stutter occassionally when defender using specials or medium attack usually from corner at start of fight.

    Now all the time issues such as lag, stutter, dropped frames especially with Omega Red and when he activates death field.

    Can’t wall intercept anymore, defender dashes in too fast and hit me.

    Description of the Issue: The game always crashes everytime after the first fight in any game mode. This started happening right after I updated to 22.1 last week. Don’t make me get started on the constant lag, especially on the crystals page and champ pick page.

    I can see the game lagging on an iPhone 6. I mean that was released over 4 years ago. But an iPhone XR? It’s bullmess.

    Description of the Issue: Lag, unresponsive controls. Navigating menus is laggy, causing me to accidental spend units unintentionally, constant trouble connecting to network even in great WiFi/coverage areas. End of every fight there’s audio glitching of what sounds like punches/hits landing playing after fights are over. Blocking doesn’t always register, evades are late and lagging. Sometimes specials input gets ignored, and occasionally my opponent will interrupt my attacks.

    Started a fight in Proving grounds against Star-Lord with Corvus. Had to check another app right before the fight started, came back and then the fight was frozen on ”FIGHT” even after pressing play. This has happened a lot. But now when I restarted MCOC and came back Corvus had lost half his health. I think this must’ve happened yesterday I realize now too.

    Also having the sound bug issue that others mentioned.

    Issue: Lag Lag Lag. So much lag for every fight and i stopped fighting with my DARK HAWK as you never gonna fix that. And this update has a new debuff from kabam which is most effective, that is
    LAG:MAKES THE ATTACKER CONFUSED WITH SLOW MOTION HITS FROM DEFENDER.
    all gonna retire soon without any resolution provided, i am losing fights like noob due to that lag.

    Description of the Issue: Happened when fighting mordo with scarlet witch and iceman in AW. After either I or the AI used a SP3, I would lose control of my champion and they would move in towards the opponent. I was not able to block after a SP3 like I have been in the past, or dogde/counter incoming attacks. Controls would come back after I would get hit, but the game has never done that before in my years of playing it.

    Description of the issue: Doesn’t allow me to block, doesn't allow me to avoid attacks (seems like 2 swipes back = 1 swipe now). Lounging forward has resulted in moving backwards many times now causing me to k.o. lots in AW and Epic bounty. Got worst after mini update for this 22.1. Come out of block even though I’ve not done so. Specials not launching and just coming out of block. Very choppy game play and 5 combos result in 4 combo hits. Successful dexterities still result in max damage received! You should refund me for units I purchased earlier. Stopped supporting any unit purchases when my team mates also shared their issues.

    this has been a problem for a long time with evidence posted on youtube by content creators. when will this be addressed? specifically, tapping block or swiping back but the game doesn’t register it.

    yes my game is updated to the current version as is my iOS on an iPhone 8+. it happens in all game modes with all champs against all opponents with no discernible pattern, although AQ seems to be the most consistently problematic.

    Description of the Issue: Horrible lag, unresponsive controls, weird sound effects (this audio randomly plays at slow, normal, and fast speeds) on the final screen in almost every fight and in all game content, during fights my champions always become periodically possessed where they will do completely random moves (I'm trying to block but my champ decides to dash forward into a Sp1 or 2, I try to dex an incoming attack but my champ thinks it's a great time to throw a heavy attack). These issues happen with all champions and all game modes. It is impossible to play harder content without having to waste units on buying

    Do you think there will ever be a time where lag that causes us to lose champs or forces us to use resources and spend money will not be present?Why would incompetent Kabam fix said issues when it causes players to spend real money? We all keep sending in these tickets and posts with the hope of something being done. Sadly the community is losing faith and hope is waning.

    Cellular or WiFi: game is junk on both
    Game version installed: the most recent crappy one 22.1.1
    Game mode: every single game mode but mainly aq aw and arena
    Description of issue: constant lag causing ai to destroy my champ forcing me to spend resources and fill kabams pockets. Unresponsive controls allowing ai to destroy my champ forcing me to spend resources and fill kabams pockets. Unresponsive specials allowing ai to destroy my champ forcing me to spend resources and fill kabams pockets. The main issue is really kabams ineptitude and what appears to be greed to the community that is holding this game back. Just keep rolling out new content that adds on new issues and compiles new bugs. Ridiculous....

    Cellular or WiFi: Occurs on both
    Game Version: 22.1.1
    Game Mode: Arena, Questing, AQ, AW
    Issues:
    1. When using Mordo's special 2, the entire screen shakes violently.
    2. General lag slows down fights at random times, cost me 25% of my blade's health against a rhino in AW
    3. Fights freeze randomly if I open a notification right when it begins and I have to close the app to fix it which results in me losing the fight and my champion
    4. Really laggy against Human Torch's specials, making them difficult to consistently dodge.
    5. AIs parry attacks mid-combo, dodge mid-combo, and launch attacks while still knocked down.
    6. Long load times.

    Game Mode: AQ, EQ, Bou ty Mission, Variant #2, Act 6, AW
    Description of the Issue: Delay on AI attacks after a 5 hit combo from user causing missing parry (timing change). At least 1 very noticeable lag in every match where the screen freezes and unfreezes rapidly.
    Faster AI reactions after dexing a hit.
    Tighter window than usual to parry.
    Sometimes it doesn’t register when I dex
    Miedo hits me with Magik when backdrafting. He dashes immediately after I finish my attack, way faster than he should.

    Description of the Issue: This is getting ridiculous. As much as folks are playing and paying for content, this should never happen. Overall game play is extremely laggy which has caused me to lose fights and lagging even when opening crystals. Game gets stuck on loading and after an hour, I'm forced to close app which I then lose half my health especially during AW and AQ. That hurts my alliance attack bonus. In addition, game tends to unblock, dash the wrong way and move on it's own during matches as if I'm being hacked. Again, extremely hurtful during AW and AQ. I'm tired of losing my health and spending units to restore lost health due to bugs in the game. You are going to lose a lot of customers if this mess keeps happening. Fix this ASAP.

    Description of the Issue: Permanent overheating after just few minutes; permanent lagging in nearly all game modes; parries and dash backs delayed/fail all the time; completely unplayable.

    This issue not only costed tons of heals and revives, but also kills my phone battery irreversibly. As mid-tier rooster player, i.e., not having a single 5* 5/65 to outdamage the lags, I gave up on trying the uncollected EQ this month.

    I never asked for compensation so far, but this month is pretty much the worst month since the start of the game and, if any, it just screams for compensation.

    Since the last update (new monthly quest) majority of fights experience irritating lags and stuttering. Spoils the fun of game when u die so much cause of unexpected faults. Please correct this ASAP.
