    But do the issues you're experiencing mean the game is now "shattered", or broken to the point of unplayability?

    How many Top 10 PvP results have you had? If you don't have the hard-won knowledge of that game, then you might not be able to relate to my comments.

    That's definitely not meant to be offensive. But my commentary is intended to be pointed at a small group of extremely active competitors. (And if I'm wrong about your game, then please add something useful.)

    Nah, I definitely think we should all compare qualifications to see who's right -- time played, number of top 10 (LOL, how about top 1?) PvP results, number of 550s, posts on the forum...

    I’m on an iPhone 11 and the crashing and freezing is HORRIBLE! I literally had it happen 12 times while trying to play my PvE slice a few days ago. And that is on top of all the lagging and other bugs.

    Nah its fine, because I lurk on the forums that means I haven't been playing the game for years and so my opinion is clearly meaningless

    These increasingly over the top whine posts are just getting ridiculous.

    They don't care. You're not going to make them care. They know this stuff is busted and they're probably working on it or whatever, but who knows how long it'll take, and they'll probably break more stuff too. Yelling at them won't make it go any faster, even if they cared what we said -- and they don't care.

    You have 3 choices: you can stay upset and keep screaming into the void, accomplishing nothing. You can walk away. Or you can try to find some way to still play and just accept whatever broken nonsense is going on. When matchmaking was broken I didn't like it, so I just didn't play as much. I even skipped a handful of events. I am still alive, as far as I can tell.

    Edit: I suppose screaming into the void is cathartic for some folks, and I shouldn't discount that. If you're fully aware that you're just yelling at the wall and accomplishing nothing, I guess there's no real harm in doing so.

    I’m with yepyep here, freezes might occur a lot less over the last updates, at least for many, but still freezes in wave nodes wreck your placement and today I just had a freeze in pvp again, counts as a retreat, lots of points gone.
    And instead of fixing these, they give us imba 6*.
    I mean why block certain supports in pvp, if a fight against Galactus will take 20 mins?
    Their priorities surely are poorly placed

    My freezes are mostly gone, though now I'm getting them any time I reset a vault... better there than in actual gameplay though. Still seeing the occasional soft-lock where gems just won't match, I have some fun screens of that. Even if they get it more stable, it's still significantly slower and it really feels like **** that this "same experience for everyone" build is EVEN MORE variable. I've got alliance mates who maybe only added a minute to their PVE times while I'm over here up about 4 minutes each grind+clear. For reference, my previous "perfect" time between node clears was 20 seconds, it's now 30. You can see how that adds up.
