**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.

[iOS] 23.0 Lag, Crashing and Performance Investigation

    I have been experiencing an extremely unhealthy amount of combat 'lag' recently. I'm in the middle of a combo, the game lags and completely disregards my inputs, and by the time the game starts listening to me again, that window is gone and I'm getting smacked in the face.

    Version: whatever the latest one is; the Avengers Forever one.
    Device: iPad Generation 4 (late-2012, can't update to iOS 11 it's so old). But I've heard of it happening on other devices. Even the really new ones.
    Affected Gamemodes: All. It seems to happen in big chunks. And I swear the more important the fight is, the more likely it is that the game lags on that fight.
    Description: see above

    anything else I need to put in, or are you guys gonna ignore this and delete this post like you do with almost every other one?
    I really think this should be on the top of your priority list. It's a really big issue and completely destroys any semblance of skill requirement in the game. So please I just want some response from a moderator, even if it's just by giving me a DM. I really don't feel that appreciated right now.

    Isn't it funny who they can't seem to fix game lag but ate quick to stop anyone using third party apps or sharing accts. I noticed when your trying to establish a streak in The Arenas the Hot Fights are laggiest.

    Do heavies repeatedly to trigger the no input bug. Watch your character do random stuff after.
  • Panchulon21Panchulon21 Posts: 2,605 ★★★★★
    Yup. On my iPhone 8 it does.
  • iPhones turning into hot plates again? So far no issues with my Samsung S9+. Hopefully this gets rectified soon for y'all. That can't be good for the battery.

    Same here with iphone 8 plus
  • iPad mini 4
    iOS 12.3
    WiFi

    Game still lags ALL the time. Often during fights (frame will just freeze for a solid 3 seconds). Loading times can be minutes or so long I just have to restart game. Etc etc.

    It’s just ruining the game. I filed a ticket and the response I got was, While we understand your having issues, we strive to make this the best experience we can for all....It was a blowoff. Please fix this.

    Game Mode: dungeons and aq. Champions arent responding in terms of blocking and parrying. I’ll hit block with well enough time before contact and nothing is happening and I’m being combo’d into oblivion.
  • TheRockoTacoTheRockoTaco Posts: 4
    The lag during fights is growing. It has spread to war and AQ, dungeons, arena, event quest, story quest, and there is no closure or discussion happening on the developers behalf. It can’t be that hard to figure out. The working as intended approach has severely worn out its welcome. Fix the game please. If you need more evidence check the previous three pages of this thread.

    Description of the Issue: When fighting alliance war using Mephisto versus drax, once pressing the start fight button, the game got crashed and returned to home screen. When start over the app, the fight cannot be recovered and lost one attack bonus and half health. The game counted me as time out but I did not fight at all. Please check the fighting time and return the war bonus point. This issue happened on 8:50am GMT+8 26 May 2019. Thanks.

    In-Game Name: GLΔΠX (Glanx using a different font)
    Device and Model: iPhone 6X
    Device Operating System: 12.3.1
    Cellular or WiFi: It happens on both Wi-Fi and cellular.
    Game Version Installed: 23.0.1.
    Game Mode: It started with hitting “Fight” in any mode. Resulted in loosing half energy. Then it happened as I started the game. Crashes after login and before getting home screen. After deleting and re-downloading, crashes as it is performing the second download (after login).
    Description of the Issue: Game crashes/disappears. I re-booted my phone, deleted app and re-installed. Only made the problem worse as described in “Game Mode” above.

    iPhone 6
    Current iOS
    Current version of the game.
    Everything wrong. 45-60 second load screens, often much longer than the fights themselves.
    Crystal openings are so glitchy and laggy. Ranking champs likewise. Scrolling thru champs to rank them takes forever, as one by one I have to wait on each character’s image to load. Even the offscreen ones. The game just drops me at random intervals, and I have to reboot the app. I honestly have to reboot the app before each aw/aq fight just to be safe and not get kicked during.
    Game is so slow and glitchy right now, it feels like I’m back in 1997 trying to use internet explorer on dial up modem

    Device and Model: Apple iPhone 6 Plus 64GB in Space Gray
    Device Operating System: iOS 12.3
    Cellular or WiFi: Both
    Game Version Installed: Version 23.0.1
    Game Mode: Event Quests, Arena
    Description of the Issue:
    The game is experiencing more overheating than it has in about a year and an extreme amount of crashing that I have never seen before. I cannot get through 10 nodes in an event quest or 20 arena fights before the phone is almost too hot to hold and the game crashes by minimizing itself and disappearing off the screen. It takes less than 5 minutes after the game crashes before the phone has cooled down to normal temperature levels. When restarting, I usually get the "fight recovered" screen but on some arena fights it doesn't return to it and counts the match as a loss. This has been going on for maybe two weeks but was probably slowly and steadily getting worse before that.

    As the phone gets hotter, everything in the game slows down in general. Champ pictures load slower and slower on every part of the game where they appear, slowly appearing one by one as the screen loads. Loading a fight or loading the map screen in quests, war or dungeons also gets slower and slower as the phone gets hotter. Opening champion crystals after the game has been running for even just a few minutes can cause more extreme slowness than anything else in the game, like waiting 10 minutes to open 10 crystals.

    I am not running any other apps while I play the game. All are hard shut down before I play. The app background refresh on the phone has been turned off for a year.

    It's not fair it's kicked me out of a aw while in middle of a fight, which loses you point war match.

    Device and Model: iPhone X (although this has been an issue on my previous iPhones as well)
    Device Operating System: iOS 12.3.1 (although this has been an issue through several different versions of iOS)
    Cellular or WiFi: WiFi
    Game Version Installed: 23.0.1 (although this has been an issue for many versions, for well over a year)
    Game Mode: All modes - Story Quests, Event Quests, Arena, Alliance Quest, Alliance War - in general just will not connect via WiFi whatsoever.
    Description of the Issue: When I attempt to play the game, or even just get onto the main screen, and am connected to a wifi network (any network, home, work, anywhere) the game takes forever trying to load and then will give me the error message "Problems connecting to your network. Please check your connection." This has gone on for countless versions of the game, in countless versions of iOS, and at least a time span of my current iPhone X, and my previous iPhone 7s Plus and 6s Plus. This will continue endlessly until I turn wifi off on my phone and relaunch the game.

    Occasionally (perhaps 2 or 3 times ever) I seem to have gotten it to work on WiFi for a little bit, but have no idea why it worked those times. Another couple times (although not for over a year at least) I have been able to turn wifi off, launch the game, turn wifi back on, and it would play for a bit, but I have been unable to make that work for quite some time.

    I think it has re-happened this May. My iphone X is getting hot during playing about 15-30min, and lags prevented my play.
