Christ mpq froze on me twice today once in ddq and once opening packs. This is getting annoying it Freezes on me every other day. One reason I miss the old engine no freezing
R329, which is currently in testing, has a number of crash related fixes so hoping this will help. ETA is early Sept and I’ll have release notes likely next Friday.
Sounds good
That’s still more than 10 days away!

Yup 10 more days of and on freezing hurray
I stopped reading after testing. Track record proves you don’t know the definition of testing.

Had ddq freeze on me yesterday too. But y’all are looking at this the wrong way. 10 more days of pvp raining covers down on us.

Sadly while 329 will fix the freezing issues it will introduce the new bug that creates a small singularity in your device that will pull all matter in the room into it causing the end of life as we all have known it. And it will eat all your covers. But the freezing will be fixed at least.
Froze again for me when I was opening packs
You pull a character you haven’t pulled or used in a long while (since maybe the last update)?
I used Ronin in today’s daily quest and on the first battle using him in DDQ, the game froze for like 10 seconds after the gems fell. I noted some gems were blank in terms of the character icon. After 10 seconds those gems filled in with Ronins icon. That tells me that Ronins artwork and animations assets had not loaded for me yet since I got the Unity update (which makes sense since I have not used him or faced him).

I don’t understand Unity enough but what exactly is making this game freeze so much? Over ten years in the game hardly ever froze. Now, I can’t get through 5 minutes of the game without it freezing and having to reboot. Very frustrating. Can’t even imagine a noob sticking with this game.
I think I recall from another thread that you are using an iPhone 16? It seems that there is a lot of problems with the Apple chips (they turned the game off completely for some older models of Apple chips like the iPhone10).
Specifically Apple does different things than Android/PCs regarding memory management and especially CPU heating (I suspect a lot of the freezes are Apple shutting down or locking up the game if its drawing too much battery or overheating the CPU). You might be able to test this by playing around with some of the settings on the phone regarding battery usage or overheating etc.

Correct. iPhone 16. Appreciate the feedback. Will try some things. And it is only on this latest release. The earlier Unity’s never froze the game on my iPhone16.
Don’t see any Apple devices listed here - Supported Devices Update - MPQ News and Announcements - 505 Go! Official Forums
@S0kun how will you guys handle it when all these freezes wreck my pve placement? When the game crashes in the middle of a wave node, that’s it with placement, are you going to compensate that?
First the phones are too hot, and now they’re freezing. Does Unity also make hotel showers by any chance?
mod mode off
Hey @S0kun @IceIX wanna know how many freezes I had last sub endgrind? One dozen! Luckily my device reloads the game in 20 secs, that saved me!
I might be less annoyed with the freezing and crashing if they would run the fan favorite vaults until they fix this. Mind you I would still be annoyed…but less so.
Had a freeze during final climb in PVP. Made climb to desired position that much harder (lost 50+ points off a match that was a gimme - separate issue, MMR is still borked).
5 freezes between final grind in pve and first clears in new pve.
It seems like it’s getting worse.
At this point the game is moving toward unplayable
