Until further notice, please DO NOT update MPQ to R327 as we've seen that the update can cause the game to get stuck at the MARVEL logo screen. We're prioritizing a fix for this, but until then, please see our current update on the bug.

Potential Solution
1. Restarting:
Try restarting several times. For some users, this seems to force the issue to self-correct and allow access with no issue.

2. Reinstalling MPQ:
Android, Amazon, and Steam

  • Reinstall MPQ, but DO NOT UNINSTALL if you have not backed up your account.
  • If you do not have a backup and uninstall, you will lose your data because a backup does not exist.

iOS

  • If you do not have your account backed up, please wait until we have released a fix.
  • If you do have a backup, you can attempt a similar reinstall of MPQ, but on iOS you will need to uninstall the game first and then reinstall it.

Upcoming Fix
While we do not have a fix for this bug, we will release a new build ASAP and provide compensation for affected players based on how long this bug takes to get fixed.

    Totally boned. Looking like a vacation from the game until this gets fixed...

    Too late. Updated on iOS. And now frozen. Guess I’m losing all rewards.

    Tried reinstalling. Using Facebook backup. Failed. Lost everything.

    Day-one hardcore daily player here with an insane investment into this game over the past 12 years.

    Tried reinstalling using Apple backup. Failed. Entire account deleted and wiped out. Lost everything. Game loads up as if I am a brand-new player.

    This is a bloody nightmare!

    Yeah, I’m not risking a reinstall as don’t trust the backup will work as intended. Safer (if frustrating) to wait for a fix.
    @Scofie I’m hopeful that CS will be able to restore lost account data to those of you that have wiped due to reinstall?

    Usually only the game screen name is required to restore account data. At least that was so before. But today, who knows.

    Same. In fact, it forced me to go through the training ****. How to match tiles, etc.

    I had similar issues last night, this morning my game loads but crashes 50 % of the time

    Maybe the game doesn’t like virgin WiFi

    They have absolutely insane data and metrics on everything. They can go back and research cheaters at a very granular level of detail. They know every trade, every buy, every cover, every match, every name -- they know everything. (But they might find it expensive or a PITA to dig up.)

    It would be a profound betrayal for them to say (to a lot of paying customers) that a glitch like this prevented their ability to restore accounts FULLY; in a manner analogous to their ability to research accounts and shut them down (sandboxing) for cheating based on specific, traceable roster manipulations. They know who has what and when, in every case.

    I wouldn't expect them to fail us that hard... Let's see.

    Can we get confirmation of which backup restores are working and which ones aren't working, please?

    Thanks in advance.

    Feels like summer interns have taken charge of this update.

    I'm not even part of an alliance, anymore. This is what I get. I'm a brand new account.

    On iOS and locked out. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn’t work for me.

    What worked for me the last time this happened (unity release) was to play through the prologue until I created a username. Submitted a ticket with both usernames, screenshots, and support restored my game. I submitted a ticket last night and hope it can be resolved today.
