Re: [RESOLVED] Issues with PvZ 2 After Update 11.5.1 on iOS

This is the worst mistake a game development team can make. When you have millions of active users, you should have comprehensive QA coverage before any public release. I have been playing PvZ2 from the very beginning, being a game developer myself, I'd say software quality of the game degraded significantly in recent years.


Agree.  I think what makes it worse is that the chosen release date should not be on a Friday (afternoon?) as by the time the problem is discovered (normally by end user) there is no support staff to handle the issue in the weekend!  The end result is that many players are left stranded at a click of a wrong update button.  

(This is also the reason I stop update on the first 12 hours of release and let some ginea pigs opps I mean brave pioneers to try out first....  👿)

    @eieio_31310 Perfect, thank you!

    The overheating and battery draining issues are being investigated. Teams are now looking at the lagging issues 🙂

    When the Graphics Setting of 11.4.1 is Fast, the fps will remain at around 59, while in 11.5.1, some devices will stay at Slow(30fps), even if it is changed to Fast, the fps of the game is only 30fps. The other case is that the frame rate drops, and the iPad Pro will become 45fps in the Fast state, while it was 60fps before.

    The Graphics Setting is not work, and even if you've switched to Fast (60fps), it still runs at a slower (30fps) than 60fps

    Managed to get the data update to work and it has done absolutely nothing, still at a snail’s pace, and making your devices hot and draining the battery

    Everything is laggy. I cant Even get into area. It takes like 10 minutes just to play a single level, which most levels are supposed to take 2-3 minutes.
