Every time the update pop-up comes up ...

I throw my head back and cackle like an evil villain, "You'll never trick me, fools!"


::pushes skip::


Maybe Demiurge should institute a 10 ISO skip tax on that pop-up. icon_cool.gif

  • I keep debating updating over my lunch break just so it doesn't force an update through at a critical time.

    How are you avoiding the update? I've had my app do a surprise update while I switched to another app after a match.

    I haven't played yet today (so it might force me into it today), but all last night when I was playing it would keep asking me to update. I'm playing on an Ipad.
  • I'm on ios 7 on iPhone 4s and I'm still getting a persistent popup every few minutes (probably every other match). No forced update yet. That's my fear though - it'll force me to update at a critical time.

  • I hit skip all day yesterday, and then it ninja'd an update over night. I woke up this morning with a notification saying "MPQ has been successfully updated".

    That pop-up is SUPER annoying. I was having issues connecting yesterday...had CLD multiple times and even during half an hour of it I got the pop-up a couple times. Um....if I cant connect why (WHY!?!) do you think Ill be able to update?

    Eventually it stops letting you skip the update icon_cry.gif

    On my desktop version, it actually stopped asking.

  • Turn off wifi, only allow updates on wifi.

    It's sneaky. MPQ attempts to turn on wifi when you start game, even if mobile data is enabled.

    Jokes on them. I don't HAVE any viable WiFi...wait no, that sucks for me icon_e_sad.gif
  • I have MPQ on mobile and on my pad (at home), both in R54.
    My tablet is wifi only, so can't use the "wifi only update technique", like on my mobile. But until yesterday the game on my pad shows the pop-up, so I skipped it and it was fine.

    In the evening yesterday, I was playing (last push for TaT icon_twisted.gif ) on my mobile and suddenly i was unable to connect icon_eek.gif
    In fact, my wife started the tablet to watch tv in bed. MPQ started a 'ninja' update, without warning like previously icon_eek.gif
    I stopped it manually, and then I was able to reconnect with the mobile device ...

    I think that with the end of TaT, I will update on the tablet, and see if there are differences.

    My iPad won't let me skip the update like I've previously been doing. Is this how it is for everyone else?

    Yes.
    Missing out on the final LRs because no WLAN in the office. Oh well.
  • After the event last night, I hit update all on my device (62 ypdates!) and went to bed.


    Farewell R54 and farewell annoying pop ups.
  • Well, I chose very poorly. I updated about 6 hours before the end of the event so as not to get screwed if it forced an update at an inopportune time (i.e. the last hour of the event). I hit a brick wall of high levels as soon as I did and consequently fell out of top 40 (was holding top 10 for most of the event). Ah, well.
