Game freezing

I've noticed it's really bad in my b town. It freezes the worst when using the character locator or event menu to jump to my dump/recycling area from Springfield Heights. It also doesnt seem to like me tapping around when currencies are lying around. Swiping around town old-school, and taking my time collecting has really helped.

Do you have your monorail stations attached to any tracks? If yes, then try moving the track away so the train won't move.

This is what I had to do to get the freezing to stop. Eventually I'll deal with this, for now I am just getting through the event.

I don't have the freezing, but my wife does. I am crashing more and more frequently during Friend visits though. I'm lucky if I can get three towns. Mostly right between towns after the first visit. I am SO glad I didn't buy the license, it would've been useless.

We've both disconnected our tracks and her freezing has nearly stopped in her SF, but we both can't do visits. Sorry Neighborinos.

What good is this beautiful monorail if we can't have it running?

It's been effectively unplayable for me for 2 days. Since shortly after the last update. I can mostly collect money just time but anything Monorail related take 3 or 4 freezes before I can do it. The game has been come make a couple of moves, go to friends menu to sync. Try to do something it freezes, then it freezes again. Finally I can clear the metal. A couple of more freezes and I can use the metal to get B&W.

I contacted EA Support yesterday. Their only solutions were to wait for an upcoming patch, or roll back the game by some unknown amount.

I was almost a couple of days ahead towards the rail yard. I'm now slightly behind.

Yes this! :(

I am really looking forward to riding my monorail. I can actually "ride the rail" in a few of my neighbors towns, I'm very jealous. :mrgreen:

My game has been freezing for days!

I have a question ... This just started about an hour ago... The game starts over but then doesn't fully load it disconnects ... Anyone else having this issue? :)

I'm gonna try disconnecting the trains. Thanks for all the replies. I hope they fix it soon though cause I love the monorail cruising around.

As for friend visits, I find I almost always freeze if I tap a third item in a neighbor's town. As long as I stick to two each I'm almost always ok. And even if I go back to the town later to grab the third, it still causes problems.

^ Exactly this happens to me too. :(

I did the same thing. No problems since.

The trains definitely seem to be the problem. I already had the stations disconnected to I went the next step. I stored all my stations so the trains aren't even on the screen and my game seems to be working again. What's interesting is that Rats seem act like characters. Storing the building seemed to release the rats. But, I can't be sure.
