Bug Megathread

Bugs can be found in this forum, Discord, Social Media, App Stores, etc.
This is an attempt to consolidate them into one prioritized list (backlog)
Items found in v329 [updated 2025.09.09]
Critical priority
Hot device and/or battery drains really fast
Constant CPU/GPU/memory usage are making the device hot and quickly draining the battery. Optimizations are needed, with a dead a battery you can't do anything. Heat can cause instability (see the next few items)
Forum Discord DiscordUnstable game crashes or exits. While starting, in the middle of a match, opening rewards, etc.
Sometimes the game slows down, prior a crash. a.k.a. "game boots me back to the home screen/desktop" v329 seems to still crash, mid-game has improved for some. However v329 now crashes on startup for Kindle Fire, and for iOS pop ups.
App stores can provide crash reports to be analyzed by developers. Counted as a loss mid-game, so the health penalty occurs.
Discord Discord Forum Forum Discord Discord Forum RedditGame freezes, thus you are forced to quit the app.
Usually after a win, but sometimes in the middle of the game, or opening tokens, MPQ will become unresponsive. Some say they don't get the reward/PvE points. (due to having to kill the app)
Sometimes it gets stuck on a red victory screen, other times on a black screen.
Discord Forum Reddit Forum Reddit Discord Forum RedditApp Store releases should use Phased/Staged releases
Rather than pushing out MPQ to all devices you can slowly role it out over a week. Developers need to plan for that. See v237 and v329 releases for reasons why. (Game would not load at all)
Consider using public Beta releases and tools like TestFlight.
Apple GoogleCan't play any nodes
Some devices are not able to play PvE nodes at all. You try to click on the node and nothing happens. Some can exit, and come back and it works, others can't.
Discord DiscordCan't play some PvE nodes, or nodes are misplaced off the screen.
5* mode was missing from Strange Sights
Forum Discord Reddit ForumCan’t make matches, forced to retreat
The only thing you can click/press is retreat, the game is not hung/frozen. It just won’t let you make matches. It acts like it is not your turn.
Forum Discord Reddit SteamYou can make tile matches, but they don't register AP or damage.
AP doesn't increase when a match is made, matched tiles are not removed, not a Mephisto bug.
Human and computer take turns, strike/attack tiles will create damage, matches don't.
Might occur more often after a "match 5" critical tile is made. The match never ends.
Discord Reddit Reddit Discord Reddit
[Above are "Critical". meeting the definition of "game breaking" or can't play the game.]
High priority
Slow game, lots of lag, visuals taking time/not loading/wrong, but not crashing
It takes much longer to clear all the nodes, and open tokens than it used to, generally slower to load things, graphics stutter or fail to load. A "load all game assets" button, might help with the intermittent pauses. Scrolling and opening tokens are slow.
Discord Discord
Discord Forum Discord Steam Forum ForumStuck at 42% loading, or Blue swirl (not frozen as animations still move)
When your internet connection drops for a second, the game will "hang" (not progress)
Depending when it occurs you get three different "hung" screens.
You have to force quit MPQ, no "Comm Link Disrupted" message is displayed.
Note: This is not the same as v327 or v329 hanging on the Marvel screen.
Forum Discord Steam RedditEvents Quests don't progress
There is a pattern of quests not working, sometimes the text or character is wrong.
Most recent one was Zemo's
Forum Discord Forum DiscordEntire roster takes damage/injured while VIP
Come back to the game and all your characters have damage despite not using all of them
Forum Discord SteamPurchase VIP and alliance doesn't receive Command Points (CP)
Other purchases seem to give out CP, but buying VIP does not give CP to teammates.
Forum DiscordPlayer awards are not being given out, despite meeting point threshold
In Player vs. Enemy (PvE) you gain points be defeating enemies. Once you reach certain level of points, awards are supposed to be given, but are not.
ForumPressing "Ascend" on a 1* as 2* or 3* deletes the character
Normally when you ascend a character the lower character disappears and you get a higher level. In this case you get nothing.
Forum Discord
[Above are "High". meeting the definition of "frustrating" or no obvious workaround.]
Medium priority
Daily S.H.I.E.L.D. resupply rewards appear blank [Introduced in v329]
This was broken, then fixed for a couple days, then broken again in v329
Note: Going forward, I am only removing items with major version updates.
Forum Discord DiscordOffers have wrong description and/or offers are not working.
There have been a multiple deals for purchase, where the description does not match what they are giving out. Frustrating when you don't get what you pay for. If you contact support@d3go.com they will compensate you.
Reddit Discord Discord Forum Forum Discord Steam RedditEvent Rewards screen is not accurate (often too generous)
The event rewards screen does not always match what was given out.
DiscordBounce animations are nauseating
Some of the new Unity animations are unnecessary and cause a bit of motion sickness.
An option to disable those animations as well, would be nice. They slow down play as well.
Forum Discord SteamCharacters keep switching
Game doesn't use the last used team, or the saved teams correctly.
Seemingly random characters will be loaded.
Forum Discord DiscordCharacter abilities are not working as expected/described
Multiple (typically newer) characters abilities are not 100% working as expected.
A special Discord area has been created to track each character.
DiscordPost-Event Scores are not kept for 24 hours
It is nice to see specifically where you placed after an event is over, and to be able to double check the final leader boards and rewards.
Discord DiscordCover exchange uses more covers than expected
If you have multiple covers on the vine for one character, and you want to exchange just one, it will exchange multiple, and use your HP as well.
DiscordUsing shards to upgrade your character sometimes doesn't work.
Immediately after getting shards, trying to upgrade a characters level seems to work, but doesn't actually stay. (level reverts, and shards aren't used.)
RedditBoard shuffle causes damage
When no matches are left, the board shuffles. A reshuffle should not match anything, causing damage or granting AP.
Forum DiscordMilestone Quests are not progressing
The quest "Use ISO-8 to level your characters" is not displaying credit when characters are leveled up.
DiscordCarol Danvers' black cover shows up in Taco tokens too much
People are seeing the same cover appear in the Taco Vault:Spicy, way too often for it to be random.
Forum Discord Reddit DiscordUnclaimed PVP tokens no longer random
If you don't claim your PVP tokens during the season, there seems to be a set order. Similar to Spicy Taco Vault
DiscordSwitching between apps causes a pause popup
Switching and being greeted by “options” and “retreat” when you come back is not typical app behavior (iPhone users especially)
Forum DiscordCan’t select language
Not everyone in the world speaks the same language. Let us pick what we want to use.
Forum DiscordTeam chat does not work when using certain text or punctuation.
When using characters with with diacritics (ö) or certain punctuation (") Team messages won't be sent.
DiscordThis Season's rewards are not correct.
It looks like you are supposed to get a Thing cover, but instead you get Invisible Woman.
Discord RedditAndroid navigation buttons don’t auto hide anymore.
Previously on some Android phones the navigation buttons would only appear if you swiped up. This should be an option, as some preferred v324 behavior.
DiscordTeam-up powers show as unused despite being used.
It you equip 3 team-ups and use them, they don't always show as "grayed out"
Discord1* Juggernaut black power "Your Puny Toys" should warn you
Most abilities if you try to fire them and they would have no effect will warn you.
If there are no special tiles on the board, you will waste 10 black AP.
DiscordBack/Escape buttons are not consistent
When an offer pops up, you can't close it with a back button or an escape.
Every other popup you can close using that.
Forum Discord RedditToday's News button no longer works
Some players don't know about other ways to get MPQ news and rely on the in game Today's News. The button has been gray since Unity was released.
When it does work, it says there is a HP sale, and there isn't.End of Story results are gone immediately when the story ends
You used to be able to see your results for 24 hours after the Story event completed.
DiscordPlayer vs. Enemy (PvE) Map re-centers after each match.
This is particularly annoying if there is a node you have to scroll too, and you are trying to clear it.
DiscordCan't sell 2* or 3* characters with saved covers
If you have a saved cover (5+ of one color, thus the "plus" is saved) Multiple people have mentioned that selling a 2* or 3* doesn't do anything. This makes it impossible to free up roster slots,
Forum Discord Forum Reddit Forum Reddit Reddit RedditLarger multi-wave node enemies show up inconsistently.
Waves with 3+ enemies in a single wave isn't consistent.
For example: Start with 5 enemies, down a couple, remaining enemies count is 3, but only 2 are on screen. Need to down those 2 before the last 1 shows up.Deadpool Daily's Crash of Titans says "unavailable" instead of "completed"
This event is unique in that you have a week to complete it
If you do, it will say "unavailable" for the rest of the week. (grey lock)
The day you complete it it will say "completed" (red check)
This makes it seem like you need to complete some task/node to unlock it. This worked correctly in previous Unity releases.
Forum Discord Reddit Steam
[Above are "Medium". meeting the definition of "annoying" often times there is a workaround.]
Low Priority
Enemy count-down timers don't pulse while switching characters
If there are multiple enemy count down times on the board, you can select an enemy and their timers will pulse. Use an ally "pick a tile" ability (not selecting a tile yet) and switch enemy characters, the countdowns no longer pulse. i.e. Captain AmericaTeam chat's red dot indicates a new message, it does not clear after reading.
The red dot on alliance chat typically indicates there is a unread message.
When you go to chat there is no new messages to read.
DiscordMaxing a 5* support should remove the favorite
You can't have duplicate supports. Once a support is maxed out, the 💗favorite icon should be removed. There is no way to remove a favorite, since you can't toggle a maxed support.
Reddit DiscordText Bugs in multiple places
There are many places where the text is wrong, or the formatting is incorrect
DiscordSound bugs, get stuck repeating etc.
Sometimes a noise will get stuck repeating sounds like AIM bots make when they "do stuff" or electricity crackling.
RedditPlayer starts a match looking like they are damaged
There is a visual bug where it looks like your character is half damaged but they are not.
RedditLeveling a character with multiple copies should display valid options. *
You are prompted with "Decisions Decisions... You have more than one"
When you press train, characters that are not trainable are displayed next to one that can be.
DiscordRewards are occasionally delayed/missing
Reaching PvE levels, or claiming Season Pass, etc. should be nearly instant.
(Ranked rewards, are expected to be delayed)
Sometimes you have to exit the game or play a node before a reward dialog pops up.
A "refresh rewards" button in Options (short term) or
A refreshed Inbox feature (long term) where you choose when to gather all queued rewards and see a history, would be nice.
RedditAscended character should show next reward
When clicking on a characters "Next Reward" it should automatically scroll to the appropriate level for the next reward. Similar to how Season pass scrolls to the next reward.
DiscordCan’t rename saved teams
If I have 12 saved teams I can’t rename them all.
Seems like it works fine for the first 6 or so teams.
Discord ForumSupports have the wrong images after leveling up
The pictures on the supports seem to have shifted by a couple after upgrading a support.
Supports seems to act normal, probably just a visual glitch.
DiscordRewards that contain Favorite Support Shards, will have characters overlaid
Normally Support shards mean you can pick your character so they are blank.
However they often show a character's face on them, making it look like a character reward.
DiscordSpecial covers don't display on ascended characters.
Occasionally there are special events like Zombies or Christmas in July, and some characters will have temporary alternate covers. If a character is ascended, the alternate cover does not show up.
Discord
v329 Fixed or improved items
- Character bug: Mr. Fantastic (Reed Richards)'s Black Imaginaut ability
- Match Making Ranking (MMR) is better.
- Quests were reset, despite being completed. Sometime allowing for double rewards, other times losing progress. Now saves more often.
- Crashes happen less, but still occur.
- Both broke and fixed "stuck on the black Marvel screen" (still broke for Kindle)
In the AMA IceIX said he prefers bugs as: "Purpose made forum posts"
Please post new bugs in a separate thread, not this one.
I tried to make this list somewhat prioritized, higher importance items are near the top.
I'll try to keep this current.
I've spent multiple hours gathering/maintaining these 50+ different issues.

Thanks for consolidating a list.
You might want to add that MMR seems broken in PvP, Class Of etc as you get endless seed teams (at least 30+ wins worth) and after that are unable to queue regular teams worth more than like 20 points.

Normally I can't/don't compete in PvP because I am the one getting clobbered. 😉🦭This list is still "a work in progress" So I welcome any/all feedback.

Great list!
A few I may have missed, but in case I didn't:
Board Autoshuffling when moves are available.
Earning 1600 points in Welcome to SHIELD for The Maker, but still didn't receive the token - https://forums.d3go.com/discussion/92409/welcome-to-shield-reward-error#latest
VIP renewal CP not being distributed to the Alliance.

Board Autoshuffling when moves are available.I've added all of those except: board auto shuffling.
There was confusion as to if it was something like Magik's black "Drag me to Limbo"
I have not seen many reports or seen a video to confirm this.1 -
Thanks so much for compiling this! Most of the issues already have tickets in our logs and now that R328 is seemingly in a stable state for most, we'll be getting back to releasing builds in our regular cadence (hopefully).
I'll continue to put out actual patch notes so we can clearly communicate which future bugs are knocked out.

While you are knocking out bugs, there is one that's been driving me nuts for a long time that should be trivial to fix.
In the apply covers screen when you click on a cover and it says there are multiple characters to apply it to, can you PLEASE PLEASE fix the code to ONLY display that character in the selection screen. Right now it displays the highest level character and a bunch of other random characters of the same level. For example if I have a L270 Wolverine Patch and a L240 Wolverine Patch if I click on my Patch cover and go to the selection screen it shows the 270 Patch and then other 270 characters (say Beast, Elektra and so on). You either have to right scroll endlessly looking for your 240 copy or back out entirely from the apply covers screens, go to your roster and search for Patch. It's incredibly annoying (and making applying covers take a very long time) when it should be trivial to just have the selection screen show all your Patches.

Couple of others:
Wave nodes - behavior of larger than 3 enemy waves isn't consistent. I have seen it recently where the remaining enemies count is 3, but only 2 are on screen. Need to down those 2 before the last 1 shows up. Changes during cascades as to when the 4th enemy shows up compared to pre-Unity behavior.
Rewards show up only within events - very minor first world problem, but the rewards not popping in until you click into an event is a tad annoying

As someone who plays PVE/PVP in slice 5, the events disappearing out of the game as soon as slice 5 ends is a frustrating deviation from old engine behavior whereby they stayed in-game for ~1 day after ending. It is no longer possible to see your final score and placement or even check the rewards you should have received since the rewards pop-up is also bugged when showing more than 1 rewards batch (e.g. personal plus alliance rewards, sub plus event placement, etc.).

@KGB
I added that bug to the list.@Punter1
I added the delayed rewards item, as this has been reported by several people (not new to Unity)There were changes to how multi-waves nodes work recently.
I would recommend recording a video and making an individual post about it.
Sometimes there is a "boss wave" at the end, that acts different.@toecutter3095
Please see item:
"End of Story results are gone immediately when the story ends"
I tried to incorporate your "rewards pop-up is also bugged" into Punter1's comment.All three:
I added the new items lower (priority) on the list, since there are currently workarounds.1 -
Done today in the DPD. Fired Nova Green, it killed 3 enemies. 2 of remaining 3 appeared. 6th only came after killing 4th and 5th.

Shout out to @Krazy for all the effort put in to this so far.
Truly wish there also would be a dev-led ‘known issue’ and ‘priority fix’ tracker that is frequently updated. That seems ridiculously beyond the realm of possibilities though. Efforts like these by the community members is what makes me continue to appreciate the game.

Also
Player vs. Enemy (PvE) Map re-centers after each match. This is particularly annoying if there is a node you have to scroll too, and you are trying to clear it.
Is broader than just PvE. The issue is that screens reset when exiting, full stop. Not just in PvE. Exiting any Story event resets the Story overview screen. Exiting any Versus event resets the Versus overview screen. Exiting any PvE node resets the Event overview screen. Exiting any Boss node resets the Boss event overview screen. And here ‘Exiting’includes completing/winning/manually exiting.
Before Unity the game remember the prior view placement. Not it resets to baseline view.
On a personal note, and from someone who has experienced few other bugs, this is much higher than Medium priority to me. I absolutely hate it
