Places of Power Assault Battle Major Lag

ObiWanSteel · April 29, 2017 1:25AM

Is anybody else experiencing huge lag on the Places of Power event? I didn't have any such problems last time around but it was practically unplayable on my tablet. I tried rebooting the device several times but to no avail so I switched to my Samsung Galaxy S7 and it was almost as bad. The rest of the game is behaving as normal but the lag seems to increase with each encounter. I captured a short video on the last encounter to illustrate my point. I'm not complaining, simply pointing out there may be a problem unless of course it's just me experiencing this. It's a shame as I really enjoy this event despite the meager rewards - I mean seriously Mk6 Biotech Implant on extremely difficult? Even worse I got 5 MkIV Stun Guns on the middle tier (I already have 1100 of these). Would it have been too much to ask for a few cuffs?

Here's the video link anyway:

So i wasn't the only one...

Normally i dont have much of a problem with lag, and if i ever experience it, i just ignore it, but if its happening to other people there's probably somehing going on.

I am playing on my iphone 6s and experiencing bad lag also. Really annoying!

I did all 3 tiers and didn't have any such problems, although I did it right when it started.

ObiWanSteel · April 29, 2017 1:31AM

Glad it's not just me!

Drazz127 · April 29, 2017 1:32AM

I didn't notice any problems. Could be stealth mechanic causing the issue? I ran a DN lead.

ObiWanSteel · April 29, 2017 1:34AM

That's something I did consider. Was anybody else using Zaul lead when you experienced lag? Last time around I used Zader and didn't have any problems.

Athena · April 29, 2017 1:35AM

Might be stealth, I ran one tier with EP lead and had minimal issues then ran with Zaul lead and it froze after horrific lag

I was using zaul

Taxc0llect0r · April 29, 2017 1:38AM

I was using Zaul too

ObiWanSteel · April 29, 2017 1:38AM

Must be that then. It seemed to clear up once you were down to just a couple of enemies as you can see in the clip.

TWD_Negan · April 29, 2017 1:39AM

I can confirm zaul causes lag. Issue seems to be that advantage notification stacks per phase, such that phase 5 flashes advantage 5 times for example.

I just led with palpatine to beat it.

ObiWanSteel · April 29, 2017 1:40AM

@CG_Kozispoon Can you look into this please? Thanks

Mr_Sausage · April 29, 2017 1:44AM

Major lag here too. Using zMaul

Spaceballs1 · April 29, 2017 1:44AM

That was the longest event ever, but is was cool seeing ep lightning in slow motion and then freeze.

Roadburn12 · April 29, 2017 1:51AM

No lag for me but i used DN(L)

CmonMan · April 29, 2017 1:56AM

+1 used zaul lead. Really annoying

CapGaSP · April 29, 2017 2:06AM

This issue appears to be related to using a Darth Maul lead with a zeta'd ability. We will investigate this issue for the next time we run this event. However in the meantime I recommend you do not use a Maul leader for this event.

Lordsphere · April 29, 2017 2:09AM

El oh el

+1 to CG acknowledgment of bugs

Just_Me_Not_You · April 29, 2017 2:12AM

Also issue with Zaul on iPhone 7 plus.

CatoNines · April 29, 2017 2:12AM

Np here. Auto'd to the last bit, then Nihilus one-shotted Kenobi. Never lost a toon.

sir_Phantom_Jedi · April 29, 2017 2:28AM

Maul lead, massive problems. The word 'advantage' kept flickering above my toons

ObiWanSteel · April 29, 2017 2:31AM

@CG_CapGaSP Thank you for acknowledging this issue, it's good to know you are on the ball with this, we really appreciate your speedy response.

EA_Jesse · April 29, 2017 2:35AM

Hey All,

We're still looking into this right now. As soon as we have another update I'll share here.

Thanks.

Cm3Po · April 29, 2017 2:38AM

I used my zeta maul on all three attempts. The only phase that I got of on was the 8th encounter, but it wasn't even unplayable. Just slowed it down a bit. I absolutely love using maul on this event. So many Jedi to one hit kill. Lol. Please let us do this event more often.

I completed the event with Zaul leader. There was a lag but I just worked through it. Although I did start about a minute after it appeared.

Kevo · April 29, 2017 2:55AM

Definitely a Maul issue. So good to see responses from CG.

EA_Jesse · April 29, 2017 2:56AM

We found the issue and are fixing/testing it now. Will update again once the fix is live.

ObiWanSteel · April 29, 2017 3:06AM

Thanks @EA_Jesse that was quick. Great work guys.
