Dev Update #6 - MPQ Unity Launch Pt 3
Comments

3588 days played. The game is slow. The lag is unbearable.
If it stays this way much longer, I'm out. And you certainly won't get another penny.

Can anyone check on the version number for Kindle. My Apps list shows 325.710562, but I'm beginning to suspect that I have a build that wasn't meant to be out in the wild as it continues to function as it always has, but in app says its still R323.
I fear this particular universe isn't going to keep functioning much longer. Despite the pages and pages of tales of woe, at least your universe has daily LLs while this one has a rapidly approaching expiration date.

Unplayable for me! Since updating to unity, I can't do anything, absolutely nothing!. The nodes won't open, it takes forever, and ends up kicking me out of the game, after waiting so long to be able to play in pve or pvp.
I haven't been able to play anything.

I’m on an iPhone 15, and I’ve noticed that my phone now superheats within minutes of playing the game, presumably because the battery drain is so intense (it never used to be before unity).
Perhaps bizarrely, but of all the problems with the new engine this is the biggest reason for me to leave the community and move onto something else. It’s killing my battery life and at risk of burning me or causing a fire!! How have you managed this BCS?!?
Is anyone else getting this same issue?
Please post a response if you are.3 -
I came back to the still open game after a nights rest and everyone in pvp was Apocalypse and I couldn’t get in any pvp fight, a quick force close (making sure not to get any vault tokens of it) fixed that, but it surely was a funny experience, the idea of fighting 3 Apocs is quite thrilling

The lag has died down a bit. Main problems I have now are:
I get thrown out of the game maybe every 10 minutes or so. So PvE is mostly impossible. It really really doesn't seem to want me to play the challenge Node a third time. Is this Okoye's doing maybe? Some sort of Wakandian scrambler device like that time they made Bucky's arm fall off?
It really doesn't seem to like me trying to type anything. I managed to get scroll to work a bit better which is just as well as the search function either freezes or throws me out. Tried to message my alliance just to let them know I was struggling with update and so couldn't contribute my usual play but the game refused and threw me out. Have I been ejected from my alliance?!?!? They won't get rid of me that easy - I will find a way back! We are a Moose themed alliance - I can change my name to something with antlers!
I haven't yet encountered multiple same enemies or anything but that is mostly because the game and I are in fact still trying to work each other out. Can I please try and recreate a saved team, MPQ...oh sorry it is 7am and closing time? Fine, I guess.
So I guess we keep on going. Well until the next scheduled closing time or whatever the Okoye feels like doing.

My guess the problem with this is probably they aren't frame limiting the game. It looks like it is running faster than 60 fps.
If the game is running at super res (retina resolution) and 120 hz, then it is going to kill the battery.1 -
Does the enemy Jane normally do the Dr. Thor passive before the first match of the game? I think I would have remembered that but then again I am losing it these days. Not that it matters as I of course got chucked out before I could finish the match anyway!

Also and this might just be me but is anybody else now perturbed by the new loading screen pause percentages? I especially do not like 52...52 is a DC Comics number! This is a Marvel game! If we want Superman in the game we have plenty of Marvel choices!

Ha ha, now the game has made a save team for me! I have never ever had a Juggs/R4G/Polaris team as I use Gamora instead of Polaris. I haven't even selected Polaris today for anything! This is a bit like when Apple put that U2 album on everyone's iTunes without asking! I'm getting Mr. Bates Vs The Post Office vibes (non British based people might not get that one, sorry)

I see update is available (Android), will see how long I can go on without being forced to update

It was a good way for U2 to find out that a surprisingly high amount of people hated them, lol!

The lag is terrible and so random when it happens. But my biggest concern is the temperature my iPad is reaching after only 10 minutes of play. Force quitting and leaving to cool down as worried it is going to damage my device.

Can we start capturing details of any devices on which the game is still running acceptably, as might be the only way to continue playing.

Seems they've fixed it so Chasm doesn't turn 1 stun on defence. Best fix ever! 😁

I really feel it should be on the Devs to better optimise their game so it’s not causing device issues…1 -

I am not sure if there’s a strong correlation from one device to the next and in the same device unless it’s super old, maybe?
A mess, this update is.

We got a Chromebook as part of a mobile deal for my son and I wondered whether you could play MPQ on that and still be Android. You can. The experience is light years away from my tablet. No crashes yet, very very slight lag, runs fine. It has put me back in the game without needing to buy anything new or switch platforms. Getting used to using a mouse pad instead of finger is a bit weird but otherwise great. Obviously not everyone will have one lying around but if you are on Android at least this seems to work and probably as cheap as new tablet or phone.
Edit: Sorry just saw you are on an iPad so not helpful to you.

I don't know if they can somehow turn down the frame rate or reduce the amount of data being used or something - maybe someone more techy than me might have an idea?
