Enjoy the game for the next week. This patch has been horrifically bad over here on Android. I'm not even speaking to the content - the game itself has been semi-playable at best. Tons of lag, teleporting players, games that crash or fail to connect. Who'd have thought that rolling out a patch that had two days of highly limited testing wouldn't be a GREAT IDEA? THE BEST. JUST THE BEST IDEA. THAT'S A QUALITY IDEA. COVFEFE.

The last test server was highly laggy too and everyone thought it was due to the descend bots or something. Now we know it's the patch in general which is not good. They will have to fix this asap or risk a playerbase that drops big time overnight.

Problem is that this app quality is generally in decline.
I cannot name the particular update No. but for few months now the crashes are daily bread to me. before few months ago I had maybe a crash or two in total. With 2.8x it was 20% of games. 2.9 was slightly improved, now 2.9.2, I'm worried even to check it now after what I read on forum.
Pix apparently gave priority to nicer explosions and smoke over app stability and low lag.

To be honest I am on iOS and this week has been particularly laggy and slow. Teliporting bots, freezing for a few seconds the moving on again, a couple of disconects.I assumed it was event trafic or something?

It's markedly worse since. Like moderate traffic versus rush hour traffic. |

Anyone think the most recent increase in lag is due to the event, greatly increased traffic, and the fact the prunned the MM search times to operate faster meaning more people are actively in maps before you factor in the additional players logging on, playing more, and the additional workload giving out tokens and running the event....
Just a thought... I mean there has been more lag on IOS too and we don't have the update yet.

Maybe they're still having issues with old netcode.. scalability is no joke. Plus in my opinion they haven't done anything particularly innovative in a while now.

Sounds like Android is the new test server?

Tridents and pins going through players really is kinda lame.

Tridents and pins going through players really is kinda lame. Orkans s and pinatas as well. It's like they have a negative splash radius or something right now. |

Just emptied a full db clip into a lance that had zero chance of dodging. Should have been at less than 1/4, instead he only lost 1/4. I mean, I know my aim can be off at times, old eyes and all, but that was just beyond ridiculous. |

I found a stationary Leo last night, was 70m behind him, also stationary, aiming Dead center. Unloaded two full orkans from my rog and did less than 15% of his health bar. The server was chugging along, so I'm assuming it's that, but geesh. Can't count how many times it happened on my RDB with a can't miss target, or how many times I registered zero damage on a shouldn't miss target. Finally finished up my last teacher cert course last night and was excited to finally have so!e time to play, and when I managed to, all I wanted to do was exit the app and go play Freeblade or Realm Defense instead, since at least they work. I don't even like Realm Defense, either. ?? |
