Disco bug...

[Yup]

First time I've seen it...

04/17/19 Approx 8:11pm Pacific Time

"Alfonzo" - A Hellboy, Prisoner, Osiris, Hallowed
My Team - NotBE, Musashi, Prisoner, KP

2 Battles... 2 disco endings forcing game relaunch -- I won the first.. lost the second.

[Yup]

Scratch that.. it's happening With EVERY FIGHT@! Opponent is irrelevant.

[Yup]

Uninstalled/reinstalled... disco after EVERY PvP battle. Every single battle. PVP in unplayable.

I NEVER saw this bug before tonight.

[Yup]

So much for testing my new Witch....

[Player1293]

whats the disco bug?
sorry i dont play pvp often

[Yup]

It's when the game repeats itself over and over and over at the end of a battle.. like the characters are in a disco dancing with all the colored points repeating like a strobe. Trust me.. if you see it, you'll know. The only way to get out of it is to reboot the game (losing the match even if you won).

[Player1293]

oh that happened to me once and it froze my phone. the last time the bug happened to me was a month ago so its been around awhile

[Yup]

Yeah I never saw it.. heard about it, never saw it. But tonight, every battle ends with it.

[Player1293]

The bug only happens to me if i do two different damage types to the Enemy in the end never happens to my London officer but always my dday eddie

[Yup]

Okay swapped the Prisoner on my team for the Raven Witch.. and the bug doesn't seem to happen.

But I've been running the same ATK team for weeks.

[Esquatcho]

I hope I dont get it again! But if it helps, when it used to happen to me it was always a multi-hitter doing the killing blow, so I always saved up for a fury or a single hitter to finish things off.

[fanghorria]

I just encountered it for the first time when using the witch...

[Muzzleloader]

It has never went away, I get it several times a week. I have never seen it on a defeat, only upon a victory over an opponent. I have lost to max teams and lone Eddie's. I havent seen any particular move to cause the light show.

[SinGularity-8786]

Today is horrible. 5 "Losts" that way. Even after restart...

[Yup]

On defeat. it is just a hang/freeze since there's no points to flash repeatedly.

I saw it at least 5 times battle after battle after battle yesterday, then an hour later it was fine.

I THINK it may be due to server connection issues (which were prevalent yesterday). The "trying to connect" icon never appears and the game keeps trying and trying and trying to hit the server which isn't connecting -- really just guessing though.

I honestly NEVER saw it before the rollover yesterday. Devs can check my PvP activity at the time posted above, which might give a clue to the issue.

[SinGularity-8786]

Guess you could be right. Connecting icon showed up very often today.

[KOTAPAK]

I lost 5 battles, which I won against single Eddies by this ‘disco’ ending. Usually this bug was monthly or by monthly occasion, but now is an end of every single battle I play in the Arena. :(

[infinite dreamer]

Just lost with the disco bug. You may be on to something Yup. Those 2 issues may be related.

[druid138]

Yeah, the disco bug is more prevalent here since yesterday's reset as well. In addition, LoL farming is going slower than normal since the reset, due to connection lags after every battle. In general, the game seems slower and more unstable since the reset.

[Muzzleloader]

There may be a connection between the number of failed victories in arena and connectivity issues, but I still get the disco losses when no apparent connectivity issues are present. It happens during high internet activity times and during the middle of the night. If there are any lag times present I wont even try gauntlet battles. I am using an S9 galaxy, I dont know if the type of phone makes any differences.

[druid138]

Just got two more of these on consecutive fights. I've seen this bug about 10 times since yesterday's reset.

[druid138]

I just saw an update come through in the Play Store. Maybe that will help?

[druid138]

I just saw an update come through in the Play Store. Maybe that will help?

I hear that the update didn't solve this.

[Stormseye]

Updated last night worked fine since I had no discos in a few weeks. Did two fights this morning against two different full teams both ended in disco. Of course Disco never happens when you lose. Come on guys we really need to prioritize this issue.

[wipp]

It is happening way more now. What changed?

[Liebhild]

I guess it is a problem with CPU/Network of their servers. Because of the event more players are playing on auto permanently. Their servers can't handle every request correctly and so this bug will appear. Just a guess.

[wipp]

Im not a whiner but dam how long are they going to let this go on? Nf owes me some sow

[Muzzleloader]

It has never went away, the frequency varies. It occurs from single Eddie's to maxed teams, may happen twice in a row and then not for a week. The only thing I can tell is when you have slow connections when changing screens or potential battles the rate of failures increase.

[wipp]

I get it everyday. I just faught a very long battle and escaped with a win by the skin of my balls and then bam

[scott-5496]

I haved never had this happen once on any device I use I must be the lucky one!

[Yup]

I never saw it either until I posted this thread... then I saw it with every battle for about an hour.. haven't seen it since then though.

[Alvorada]

When the bug happens, I close the app and give up.

It will happen again, no matter clear cash, game data, restarting phone, set airplane mode, swap wifi/mobile data. It will happen again.

[wipp]

I started hitting autoplay on the last hit of every battle. Its a pain but i have never gotten disco on autoplay. Anyone else ever have it happen on auto?

[SinGularity-8786]

Grml...nearly got defeated...with redan's warlord talismans. Then took over and had DDE and Redan down. Horus and Ichiyou below 30%. Own at 100% and Val down...when game hung up with that eternal loop..great

5471

P.S.: for the devs. happened after taking a close look (after using "Battle-Button" like in screenshot) at the 3 unfought teams. Then choosing my Team and unequipping and equipping useful talismans. Forgot to restart app after this like i did the last weeks to avoid this.

[druid138]

I hadn't seen the disco bug for about 3 weeks, but I've had two this morning. Also, all of the Arena-related server communications seem very slow today in general.

[The Educated fool]

I had this bug crash the Arena on me 6 out of 7 fights today... THIS close to the big goodbye, here. :cool:

[Muzzleloader]

It has never went away. When the arena play connection is slow I try and not play much. It seems to occur more often when there is a slow connection.

[mikus666]

5 out of 5 Arena fights just now. WTF!!! I tried auto, manual and revenge. All wins ended in disco bug and loss of SOW.

[Muzzleloader]

Also 5 out of 5 . I guess arena and gauntlet are not playable.

[blade685]

two times again yesterday vs same player = two defeat again

[Muzzleloader]

3 more dances in a row just now.

[Blade]

2 times in a row against a player called FuRaBuXo just few minutes ago. Hope that information helps solving the problem. Really annoying to lose SoW, statistics and not being able to finish the list!

[fanghorria]

Hadn't seen it in a while but just now had Doomsday Ed finish the Prisoner with fury and the fury animation kept triggering again and again..

[Muzzleloader]

I've had 8 in just over 24 hours. It's just a waste of time to try and play in the arena. They give SoW as a reward in the dungeons just to waste time, SoW , loss rank and not even count as a battle played. 8m afraid to even try the gauntlet where the loss costs more than the arena.

Exactly! I would not do Gauntlet battles right now. For me, server response seems very slow, as changing menus takes longer than usual and I see the loading icon very often, e.g. just a second ago for getting the satellite reward! I assume a server reboot soon...

[Yup]

Happening here this morning as well... but all "game" activity has been VERY slow.

And I actually uninstalled/reinstalled yesterday in the hopes of helping all the auto-replay crashes, which it didn't help.

[Patrice-1201]

yes happened 5 times in a row just now...

[Rory]

Just experienced a weird thing, is it connected to this bug ?

What happened was, I played an arena battle, for the daily reward, and it keeps showing the same attack against the last character again and again and again. The big gold skull showing a win comes up and disappears again and again and again as well.

I quit the game and restarted it. Still shows the same player as available to fight against (it was a defence battle). Registered as complete for the daily reward though.

[kkkreg5]

Just got this after a win in arena. Chuckled some because I'd never seen it in person.

On a serious note, is there some kind of seizure danger with it? Made me a little dizzy after a few seconds...

[Ip4]

now every battle in PVP is disco bug 4/4 try

[blade685]

5 battle 5 disco!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
totally unplayable

[Muzzleloader]

I tried it again, the dance continues. Just losing free SoW.

Anyone trying gauntlet?. Wondering if it is only arena or bothgauntlet/arena.

[blade685]

that shit bug is only in arena for me and all weeks since a long time
But today it is just WTF ^^

[wipp]

I hve been playing gauntlet, so far so good

[kkkreg5]

Two battles won and they did not count towards the daily challenges. Clean this up NF...

[Esquatcho]

Out of interest, is it only happening to you all if you finish it off in manual?

I just think that maybe when I finish it in auto, it doesnt happen? (though, touch wood, it hasnt happened to me much).

The other thing is that maybe its related to server loadings? Im in Australia and rarely seem to get it, which might be because Im playing when many of you are asleep?

[Muzzleloader]

Several battles, only 1 dance. The battles did not count toward the daily m8ssion.

[Yup]

The battles did not count toward the daily m8ssion.

Same here, until I rebooted the app.

[blade685]

Same here, until I rebooted the app.

yes if reboot generally it count
We need a compensation like in the past for all that bugs, they give nothing now

[scott-5496]

I have seen this now as well. My first time was last night in arena on an ipad and on one of my kids Kindles. It did count after reboot.

[Muzzleloader]

The dance is still here. It just wont go away.

[kkkreg5]

The dance is still here. It just wont go away.

Yep. Just got it...

[Muzzleloader]

3 out of 5 dances. I guess I will give up for awile.

[infinite dreamer]

Ugh, not again. I was doing good for a couple weeks.

[Muzzleloader]

A single week would be fantastic.

[SinGularity-8786]

Confirmed… disco bug still there. 2 discos and one total freeze in a row.

5517

This counts as a loss and sow is gone...

[SinGularity-8786]

Arena and gauntlet absolutely unplayable atm. even starting app for every single fight doesnt help today… 3more losses in between…

5519

[SinGularity-8786]

Found a routine that helped me out for some (13) fights now. But costs a lot of time...

Start LotB - choose your oponent - end LotB - start LotB - directly fight oponent chosen before - choose new oponent - end LotB... and so on

[SinGularity-8786]

and the next "loss" against ANDY

5520

[SinGularity-8786]

and again…

5521

[Muzzleloader]

3 dances out of 7 battles this morning. I'm glad I am not worried about rank or points this season with the big screw job they did with the rewards and ranking.

[SinGularity-8786]

no more words…

5522

[SinGularity-8786]

one more…

5523

[SinGularity-8786]

i am very close to say something that would result in a ban from this Forum...

5524

the ninth "loss" today… and i had only 100 Points to go for 3500... 27 matches and just 15 points closer to goal by this f.....' s..t

[SinGularity-8786]

"loss" No.10

5526

or is it 11...

[Stormseye]

No disco for 2 weeks and first battle this morning..Disco..the only saving grace is that at least it does not count as a loss when you have to restart but you still lose the SoW. Devs please let us know what information you need to help you guys better understand and fix this issue.

Correction - it does still count as a loss once you refresh and try again. After refreshing the attack list I was able to have a win without disco.

[SinGularity-8786]

still no Chance here…

5528

fell under 3400 now…

[kkkreg5]

BEWARE! Disco bug just struck versus Danofdeath...

[Muzzleloader]

The dance has never went away, it happens several times a week to myself.i would estimate that it happens 5% of battles, lone Eddie's and full teams are equal oppurtunity dance partners.

[Ip4]

watch out for user Thessa in PVP he use single "santa eddie" as defence,its always disko bug...one of oldest and not possible to fix bugs...

[blade685]

that shit bug again?:mad:

[rags-6094]

New loop perhaps... I have seen the talk about Raven Witch getting extra goes when the defence has trooper Talisman.
But this is ridiculous, every go seems to take 10 to 15 seconds and Raven Witch gets endless goes because she has silence on her she can’t use her fury and the power count is too low to let her have an alternative power turn so she just continually uses her normal turn and it forms a loop that cannot be broken.. Another bug for the Devs to look into..

I know you guys and girls are kept busy there but perhaps a minor change to the way Raven Witch works would do the trick?
Now the play button needs to be pressed at the top of the screen too when it’s the defences turn otherwise they all just stand there and look at one another.

[infinite dreamer]

Just had the disco bug error again (vs ipheylan). Seems to come up at such random times.
