Force closing a bannable exploit?
I havent tried this out but was curious if this could be seen as cheating, for instance I read if you lose a character in GW, you can force close and they will be back (battle left off in the same position before death im assuming).

I'm interested in this too. That trick is addressed multiple time on this forum as a legit one (even in one of the first reply in the GW Guide thread, the place where most likely new players like me will look for advice), and IMO that is enough for making people think it's ok to use it: otherwise EA/CG guys would have said something about it, or at least they would have deleted posts mentioning the trick.
Plus in one of my device I have experienced (and still) random force close, probably due to the lack of free memory (less than 100MB). Of course it happens randomly, but in that moment I could be everywhere: i.e. into the lobby, into Cantina battles or in GW; how you would take this into account? (Lack of memory is just my supposition, but on the other device where I have some GBs avaiable the game works like a charm, so...)
Anyway it will be nice to have an official response here from, let's say, @CG_AaronNemoyten @CG_JohnSalera @EA_Jesse which could take all our doubts away and state which is the correct path from now on, avoiding that inexperienced players encounter some sort of sanction from a behaviour that isn't been clarified yet.
lol IT"S LEGIT....Well, tbh, I do not see why it should be not legit since other mobile games are fine with that. There are lots of reasons why the game suddenly force close such as not enough memory data (makes my ipad keep restarting out of nowhere), forgot to recharge (bat goes to 0%) and many valid reasons.
They should focus on BETTER problems such as double arena rewards, leila bugged, evasion rate which are really different from some characters from the description to the reality, their newest update soon and many important one than this feature.
Same, my IPAD keep restarting every 5 mins and my bat drops to 0% every 1 hour....
Just was on my tablet on forum when batt died, it's impossible to seperate the right from the wrong there so can't ban you or anything.
I remember my brother was playing GTA online and there was this cash glitch that everyone abused. When it got fixed, people lost the money as a logical result. You can't ban people for something the game allows them to do unless they alter the code.
Also I read some people saying in pvp their characters never gets to go first and some even claim that the enemy has 3 full rounds = 15 attacks before they get a turn. That's also a glitch imo since you pretty much lost by default if the enemy gets to hit 15x first. Nevertheless using a glitch is still a **** move.
HAHAHA he used it a beep load of times until he didnt need it anymore, and then he stopped using it and tried to get it fixed so others couldn't reap the benefits. This guy.

LoL, it really remembers me about savegames in Pokémon. Good memories
Why it would not fair??? Its really good for F2P especially and most of P2P players....its one of the strategy...you can add it up later in your guide...all other games has it also...you can check Heroes Charge (very similar gameplay, based on DOTA and LOL, played for one year) and other similar types of games...
True for arena. If force closing is penalized, you bet the whale-f2p gap will widen further.
Because Arena and Gw are two different things buddy...Arena if they do not penalize it then other people will suffer as the result...but if its Gw, its like an offline...there is no party hurt by people doing that...period.
I haven't done it since and I don't really see the point. It's a waste of time for little reward.
Whether I complete GW with one hero standing or all heroes makes no difference to me.
No what the force quit in GW does is reset the entire battle. So you just start over - you don't pick up in the middle of the battle with any more health or the enemy still damage. It's nothing like retreating at all. You just start the battle over from the beginning like nothing happened.
It's less of an advantage than the permitted retreat approach. You really don't get any advantage in a battle like retreating can offer. If I were CG / EA I wouldn't bother putting in resources to block this ability as it's less effective than what the game already permits. Achievement spam farming Vader though...that's a different story
While I don't have an opinion on the subject, and don't know if it should be banable or not, this sentence is nit true. It's a very common point of view, that benefiting yourself shouldn't be a problem if nobody gets hurt. But it's false. It would be the same than using PEDs in sports. If you do this, and finish your GW, and you level your Luminara to 7*, and then use her in Arena, then you have an adventage over those who don't use it, and don't have his Lumi as well developed as yours.
If that is, or is not, fair game, is totally a different question. But it does affect the rest of players.
You dont need to restart phone just the game is ok
And the award is huge to f2p
I know that all you have to do is exit the app, but the first time I didn't know what I was doing.
I am pretty much f2p ($10 spent) but I'd rather play as fair as possible.
LOL...it might be true but not completely..
1. even with force close I know lots of player couldnt even complete GW and they just try to bring people down who success complete GW with one of this trick
2. It might get benefits but only for few heroes ONLY (you don't make your 5 man team from GW alone, you just pick one or two MAX) and only 4 heroes are good for the team play in GW shop.
3. PED's is ILLEGAL whatsoever while this feature is ALREADY implemented before this game even make it out to public (i am talking with other games with similar gameplay that use this feature legally)
4. If they take this out and many people could not complete GW because of that feature, there will waves of whining and crying to make it easier or put the feature back...lol...come on people think ahead...not just a one step ahead...
Thank you.
1) some sportsman don't win even with PEDs
2) it doesn't matter. A single basketball player on PEDs gives enough adventage. Just having a 7* Lumi vs a 5* one will win you a mirror match. Or having Poggle vs not having it. Not to mention the rest of crystals and mats you get
3) true. If you reread my post, I already made an statement about that. I don't have an opinion about it being legal or not, or if it should be. But claiming it "doesn't hurt anyone" is disibgenous.
I've spent a fair bit since first unlocked it, and my GW/Arena team is fairly well-off now. 7* Sid melts faces. I could probably still complete it 80% of the time with well-timed retreats and well thought out team comps.
If they fixed it or banned those that use it, I'd be quite unhappy. If they did either without lowering the overall difficulty of GW, I'd probably quit.
However you look at it, saying youd quit if they made gw harder is a bit weak.
