View Full Version : PvP match hangs

Fighting in the arena, match just stopped. The characters kept on floating there, no action was possible. Waited 10 minutes and restarted the game. My SoW was gone and I got the defeat. That's not cool.

Same here... 3 times already :(
Also, after clearing a list I cannot refresh the new list for free. Quite shitty, especially if the algorithm gives you top 25 opponents only.
Blade
09-05-2018, 10:43 PM
And another hang...that's annoying!
are you on android because i can't enter on ios last few hours?
Blade
09-05-2018, 10:53 PM
Yes, android! See left below location. Android was faster with the updates then iOS recently. But as you can read here, it's quite buggy right now anyway :(
Hang aswell
On old scenario

Something I have found before (if it freezes) is to switch out of the game and then switch back. It seems to restart any network events (ie: if it's intermittent communication).
Note: Could be that packet loss somewhere close to where the NF servers are located is causing it. I've not experienced it but not everyone's internet traffic takes the same route to their server(s), so it's possible only some of it is being affected.

Hey, but we got a new symbol.
In new definition books we will see a new entry: incompetence - [moderator] of LotB
Cefiar
09-05-2018, 11:55 PM
I'm happy that when there's no comms to the server that it now gives you some status (ie: the symbol).
At least that way if it's your end (eg: DSL dropped out, No mobile or wifi signal cos you walked into a room with no coverage, etc), you can see if you can fix it, rather than just getting APMA errors all the time.

Same here, but (for me) appears to be when my oponent revives two allies or more, but in his last turn. Example: Me against Osiris, Breeg and 2 liliths, kill everyone but Eddie, Uses his fury and revives his team, tecnically his turn has ended, but he have toons so his turn didnt end.
Anyway, i lost 4 battles because this so its not funny, i dont have so much free time, and when i have it a new bug appears.

I'm having the same problems as everyone else about 1/3 PVP matches results like this, rather difficult when your trying to achieve a personal goal..
Another problem is Osiris on the defence team can revive all his team even if they have been killed while marked with doom or permadeth.
Whilst the attacking team cannot revive a non marked Ally with Osiris...
Beyond a joke now can the developers please look into this?

I’ve had a couple of arena battles and one cosmos battle hang since the server came back up.
Game hangs - Good Old Times.

One of the advantages to being an iOS user is no game hangs - because half a day later there’s still no game :D
Blade
09-06-2018, 08:02 AM
Some more hangs here, (always?) related to a revived char. This is ridiculous, as in the current meta revive is happening all the time. Especially due to Primordials and Osiris.... Worst update ever!
Please test your updates before release and stop releasing them during running events!
desprezo
09-06-2018, 09:41 AM
Same here.
Just removed Osiris and Primordials from auto-play, so I can play my troopers, no hang for the past 30 minutes.

Same to me on Android. Cleared cache after last update, but I got 3 PVP freezes.
Can we pls get back our SOW?

Well, if it's Osiris' fault, I will switch him with Aset
Well, no need to switch, almost all of my opponents use Osiris too... result : 4 freezes and also 4 loss :(

I have an android and have had no problems at all since the update. Played over 60 cosmos battles and 20 arena battles. I am in the central USA. Played both last night and this morning.

09-06-2018, 06:12 PM
Been having the hang bug in PvP all day, about 12 times in all. Almost unplayable in PvP for me and cost me several sow. Not very impressed and no doubt there will be no extension to the latest challenge or my sow back, so not very impressed devs. This seems like a turkey of an update. If it's of any consequence I'm on Android and characters used in all occasions were Benjamin Breeg, corrupt general, yellow and blue children.

The issue might be Primordials or it might be with the auto-revive from Immortality. I've been trying Number of the Beast (Madness) on autoplay with Alexander Eddie (Valor), Gunner CoTD (Primordial), and Sekhmet (Steel, Chance). I finally got to witness the game hanging and it happened right after the Gunner CoTD auto-revived from Immortality when the Beast went into its Assassin stage.

Follow-up: I pulled the Gunner CoTD (Primordials) out of the team and replaced it with a toon without Immortality-generating effects (used Warrior Lilith with Echo and Advantage). Autoplay ran smoothly after that, no battles hanged.

Follow-up follow-up: I played a PvP match in the Arena and the game hung after a Beast Eddie auto-revived from Immortality.

09-07-2018, 05:17 AM
Returned this morning to receive my 666 ironite for which I'm grateful, but I'm still getting hangs on PvP with Gunner CotD. NOW I'm getting hangs in the gardens too which is CRAP at 12 SoW a time, I'm not wasting that on hanged battles.
So with no LoL u til Sunday and hangs everywhere it's now not worth playing.
This needs fixing ASAP!
DanielRacy
09-07-2018, 07:23 AM
Again, this time at the gardens. I was using this crusader trooper, that sucks cause I already spent 6 event souls and obviously didn't get shit and was excited to try this new eddie out. Well...
Blade
09-07-2018, 07:58 AM
Still so many hangs, unbeblieveable! Especially during matches of all kind due to some revives (and sometimes heal). But also just in the menu. I am glad that I already finished the new blue talis set, because PvP is basically unplayable right now. Worst update ever.
Liebhild
09-07-2018, 08:48 AM
Worst update ever.
I wouldn't say, that it is the worst, it is sadly just a standard update in LotB, the [moderator] have no time too fix bugs und test stuff, because they have to count the money, some here still throw at them.
Blade
09-07-2018, 09:10 AM
I know, most of the updates had problems and created crazy stuff and bugs, but this time it is really particularly bad. Sometimes I really wonder what they do with all the money several [players] keep spending. I am really fine that I did not pay that much over the years.
kgk56
09-07-2018, 02:39 PM
Still happens, even in the BNW (when Osiris revives allies)
DanielRacy
09-07-2018, 07:38 PM
It's not only when Osiris revives. Golden Angel of Death (or whatever the nam is) revival passive does this shit too. Happened to me moments ago and there was no Osiris in the match.
rags-6094
09-07-2018, 08:37 PM
I've been a little more watchful whilst I play PVP, I took on a team just now, DDE, G Lillith, M Lillith, Osiris
Towards the end of the fight DDE fury nuked my whole team, all members of my team miraculously survived, but the thorns on my team took out the whole defence team in the process, DDE had perfect immortality and of course reappeared, at this point the game paused.. Iwas just starting to get a good run together too and this bug stuffs it every time, I can't even string a run of more than 5 wins together before the game pauses.
All this during an arena event! Come LOTB please fix it! Yes I believe it is revive Ally related but it is not limited too Osiris as the problem occurs with BBE too, but when the revive Ally is dead and gone and the game still pauses? What then?
Another perhaps related issue I have been banging on about since Osiris's release is the intermittent revival of permadeth and doomed marked and dead ally's on the defence team only. This is definitely not fair and a major waste of players resources.
But once again this will fall on deaf ears.
rags-6094
09-07-2018, 09:21 PM
Another update on this problem, the defence team I just played had Beast Eddie, GCOTD, W U Rescuer, Sekhmet.
No revive tactics had been used COTD simply had perfect immortality revive him and the game went into pause again...
Liebhild
09-07-2018, 10:47 PM
The masters of incompetence should also take down Arena, as long as their one brain cell is workin gso hard to find the bug.
I only loose because of this freezes.
DanielRacy
09-07-2018, 11:21 PM
In total I've had 15 losses on my pursuit to 300 wins. All of them were because of this shit.

Still happening...
WTF?
Porron87

Two lost fights for this bug only. Though it only happened to me when an enemy osiris resurrects someone.

Now multiply that by x 3 and that's how many bum up's I've had on the way to 900 fights, and I'm still going...
Just ridiculous, and if you weren't aware the 666 ironite was for these arena bum ups as well not just the delay in the update...:mad:

900 wins? Fuck, that's waaaaay out of my league. Good job man. I can only imagine the stress level considering Osiris and primordials are all over the place, plus a couple of other chars that can revive an ally and fuck shit up right now.

Happened to me as well. Just after Breeg's fury the game hanged.
Caesar815
09-08-2018, 11:37 AM
How the hell should I accomplish at least 200 PVP wins, if nearly each match since the update freezes when someone is revived. Even if my own troopers are revived, the match freezes and so it gets lost because I have to restart the game. That's ridiculous. This way I hardly can win a match respectively 200 (OK, instead of 300 - which would be just even more ridiculous!!).
It's damn devastating my motivation and frustrating over time!!!
Knut-3112
09-08-2018, 11:54 AM
Yeah, PvP is unplayable now because of this. It has apparently something to do with revival. Doesn't matter what char, but it's always the revival that freezes the game. Devs, fix it please. This is urgent.
Stormseye
09-08-2018, 03:02 PM
Seriously this is by far the worst stupid out of hand bug to date. Disbale PVP until you fix this bug. I am trowing away ironite and SoW because of freezes.
Porron87
09-08-2018, 03:18 PM
So far I only had this issue with enemy Osiris, mine works fine. Not even with primordials, the clairvoyant, or other resurrection passives.
Seeing how everone else is dealing with the hangs kinda makes me feels lucky :p
PVP is unplayable! Constant freezes, never ending downloading screens, buttons not activating matches! Impossible to finish event .
Stormseye
09-08-2018, 06:01 PM
Just had a lock up with Cyborg, Sekemet, Prisoner, Magus Lillith. Cyborg was killed with Perfect Immortality and revived then the game locked and I get a loss..I don’t normally curse on forums but I have quite a few choice words for the blantant lack of response to this current bug.
devs batter disable primordial and eternal talismans before they this shit,i need 5 win for 600wins and can't win any more match because this freezes
Stormseye
09-08-2018, 09:29 PM
They need to do something immediately! This is rediculous! Had anther hang up with Iron Eddie left and he revived from Perfect Imortalty and locked. Every player in the current meta has a way to revive so every match has a high probably to lock and thus you lose. What is concerning is that I have 0 defensive wins considering I have the same build as everyone else who is locking me up with revive bugs.
Fix the bug!

At least we are all quite certain where the problem lies, it's to do with reviving period and absolutely nothing to do with any particular character.
Anyway Stormseye I think you've done enough to pull off 2nd this week, that's a damned good effort with all the bum ups and being an event and all the others things yourself and the rest of us have had to contend with.. Congrats buddy!

09-09-2018, 12:06 AM
So I guess next thing to narrow down is who is and isn't affected, and why?
I've not had the hang at all on my tablet. AT ALL.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S (SM-T700 - Wifi only model), running Android 6.0.1 (the ONLY thing I have on it is this game and music).
rags-6094
09-09-2018, 12:11 AM
I'm using a Samsung S8+ and it is happening for me about 1/10 now but was as bad as 1/3 at one point... I have been very careful how played to try and prevent the triggering of it...
AODqw97
09-09-2018, 06:36 AM
Why is there no word on this. It would be nice to just get acknowledgement on this issue so we know it's being looked at.
Or maybe it isn't, maybe there's not enough of us with the problem, may e we are just collateral damage?
SO pissed off with the lack of action on this.
DanielRacy
09-09-2018, 06:38 AM
Samsung J7 here, lots of matches hanging. When I got to 300 wins it happened around 15 times, then a couple more times until the reset. Always after some revival.
Cefiar
09-09-2018, 06:50 AM
Well ok, there goes that theory.
Just had it happen to me on the above tablet. Weird thing was when I killed a bunch of other characters, one already dead more than 1 round revived. From what was on the characters, I can't see how this happened (ie: no talismans or effects that I could see that would revive the character).
Edit: Enemy team was DDE, Assassin Lillith, Dog of War and Warrior Hellraiser. Not sure how it happened, but it looks like somehow Assassin Lillith's passive triggered when she died? This happened in the middle of my turn (so, I still had characters waiting to attack) right after I used my DDE's fury and wiped Assassin Lillith and DDE out, but somehow revived the Dog of War?
AODqw97
09-09-2018, 06:58 AM
My missus is playing it on her Samsung tabS2 and hasnt had this issue once.
So are they usually as unresponsive as this?
The most expensive pay to win mobile game in the history of the world with the might of all the revenue from it and they can't even respond to a serious issue?
I know I'mfairly new to the game but what I'm seeing at the moment is crap.
If we call stopped playing tomorrow in protest there would be an announcement real quick. But they know that won't happen so they're good..
Cefiar
09-09-2018, 07:22 AM
Oh and it gets better and better.
I just had 3 matches in a row where I wasn't awarded the win. Never got the end screen, even though I defeated the opponent.
Two with the same person as I didn't realise I had already done that one till I was actually a battle with them.
Waste of SoW. :(
Interesting that on some matches now, at the end, right before the victory screen, there's a little user/Document icon which appears for me. It's white and purple and fairly large. Doesn't show for every match, but happens often enough for me to notice it. I assume it's indicating some sort of log being transferred/saved... but that's just a guess.

Same here. I got it a lot when I was having internet issues just after the update, so I think it means it's trying to connect to the server, but I'm not 100% sure.

Just had an enemy Death Dog revive from passive, he instantly died again and then attacked me in his dead pose. He just made a slide over the floor towards my team, looking dead. Creepy as hell. And of course, the game froze after that. Seriously, what the fuck is going on? I'm starting to consider quitting.

Yup/Deathbat: Yeah it's a connection indicator. ie: It's retrying sending messages to the server, rather than just dumping you an APMA3 message.
Now, how many of these re-connection issues are network connectivity between your device and the server, or just the server itself, is another matter entirely.

It is crashing a lot at the moment - moving bettwen defence and attack screen is an instant crash and need to quit the device and go back in. I have given up doing anythign much this week as it just a simple crash fest on revivers teams if you can get in to a game. Switching screen between att and def in an instant hard crash....worst this game has been for a very long time for me anyway.

Completely agree. It is extremely diappointing. The game was stable before the update with some well-known bugs but they almost completely destroyed the game with the update. Had about 7 hangs since the reset in Arena, also one very crazy one: After a hard fight I finally made the winning hit and the game got into a loop, showing the damage digits I did, zooming in and out the camera and popping the golden win-indicator-Ed-Skull up and down, up and down. This loop was non-ending and I had to force quit -> counted as a loss... what a giant bullshit!

The update was 2 parts - New data in the game and new game from Play Store.
I mention this cos I know that my partner didn't for ages (till 8 hrs ago), yet she wasn't locked out from playing the game like usual when there is an update. If you've not actually updated the game through the Play Store, it might explain why the bug is still present.

Hi Cefiar!
Thank you for the tip! Maybe I only updated the new data in the game, not sure.
Anyway, I got a message today when I started the game saying I had an old version and had to update from Play Store. Hopefully the game is more stable now. :)
Up the Irons!
