Game freezing and lost buttons

Game freezing cant look like anything but a force close to them. The local client cant do anything to tell them the player didnt just close the app.


For the buttons, this is a similar situation. The local client is out of sorts within itself. The current "fixes" they have tried are to have the app self correct when this is "detected", but that seems to not be as good of a bandaid as they hoped. Since that fix is not doing what it is supposed to, there is no way that the app can inform the server of anything and that means it will just seem like a force close again from their side.

-----
Any other changes to allow the player to not lose the match and team would just make a system that is open to abuse.

so.... we constantly live with fear of game freezing or buttons disappearing?
Freezing has been reported and reported and reported. Different threads from different people to the bug section yet no response whatsoever. Please forward it to developers cause a mobile game that crashes on mobile is just useless game.

There have been several post from the dev team about this issue and them working on fixing it.

Been loosing in arenas, grand arenas, fleet arenas, tb, tw and anything that includes a battle cause of freeze, yet i don't see that in the backlog. Backlog mentions only button missing.

Then you should be reporting these to Answers HQ to help highlight the issue.

A game freeze can be caused by many issues and is not a specific thing in and of itself, it would be impossible for them to say they are going to fix an issue like that, as they can only fix the causes that are reported and caught.

At least you said it... it's been 3 years and we still have this bug (disappearing buttons learning to freeze), if anything it's worse than ever now...

No Buttons lead to the game freezing, when people mention game freezing and lost buttons, losing the buttons is what causes the game to freeze.

A game can freeze because many issues yet but no buttons is a very specific type of freeze. It seems your conflating him saying freeze and interpreting that to be a completely separate issue than no buttons when in reality they are related as much as big toe pain is related to stubbing your toe.

they are absolutely different issue. Unfortunately someone could consider them the same and report buttons missing as freezing, but freezing is performance stopping. the buttons disappear, the game is still functioning, and running the code. just not allowing the user to interface, or the game to know what happened to report back to the server.

but lets stay on the topic of different ways to possibly bandaid this for the sake of the players.

Closing this down as it is just inviting off topic posts about current issues.
if you have any current issues with freezes or buttons missing, please report them to <>

So you're not even gonna talk about the retreat possibility?
How is it abuse to be able to try multiple times like in raids? It's PvE!

If the game is frozen how do you retreat?

You dont see any issues with having multiple chances to attack a team in TW and GAC with no consequences, with no way for them to tell if you just force close the app?

Well, like I said i was talking about PvE as in TB. So no abuse there.
That would solve only part of the problem but better than nothing (even better than changing requirements like they did...)
Anyway, there could be a miracle and their fix could work.

OP, I think you're in my shard. :)

Unfortunate, but true. Freezing buttons are an isolated event that happens on occasion. I'd agree this is still better than giving someone unlimited chances to reach flawless scores against your defense.
