Thank you fixing the bugs. But after the new version I sadly encountered something not witnessed before. I play on the PC version and the Chat is super-sluggish, even to the point that Windows wants to close the app for not responding anymore.
Valen_Swift, thank you very much for your report! We will be forwarding it to the team 🙏
Hey there! I really like how you've fixed those clan chat bugs but there is one thing thats really bothering me and not letting me open mech arena at all! Its that the desktop app Plarium Play does not open mech arena... like at all. It shows that mech arena is launching and running for a few seconds and then reverts back to the normal play button and doesnt start the game. Pls fix this.
Arra, thank you for your report! We will be forwarding it to the team 🤗
As usual the new update "fixes bugs" by introducing a ton of new bugs. I play primarily on my phone and since the update, chat is slow, with it not responding at all at times and simply repeatedly dimming the profile pictures and giving the spinning loading icon on the send button. this of course does suggest you can actually do something like chat when even team matches or inventory popups simply stay there and don't respond so you can't leave the window, or open team chat, etc without completely exiting the game, only to restart it and find yourself immediately loaded into a battle that is halfway finished.
Other simple features like an "ignore" option (which every other form of chat or multiplayer I know has) have yet to be deemed worthy of being included. Also, the unnecessary barrage of popups when you load the game, all of different sizes too, which is so annoying that by the time you've reached the end of the popups, you barely feel like playing anymore. This should be one single window that you can scroll through, with perhaps a 5-second cooldown before you can close it... Oh, wait... you have a shop tab with the exact same info! why not just make ONE popup stating that there are new items in the shop instead of this onslaught upon start-up.
Things like FFA (which most players I know have no interest in) get implemented while things like new maps, CPC tournaments, etc, (which have been promised and asked for for ages) simply get ignored.
It may sound like I'm simply spitting bile but I, in fact, love the game and overall it is a great game and experience but I have honestly never encountered any app or game that requires so many updates or "server maintenance" downtimes as Mech Arena does. Every time there is an update it seems to fix bugs that most people are unaware of but introduces a ton that affects everyone in a far greater way. It is disheartening.
yesterday I witnessed missiles launched from MORTAR pass through the roof, I witnessed JAVELIN hook the target from over 100 meters, and not only occasionally, in multiple games and by different players. and then we are tired of fighting against people who have been playing for 2 years with experience over 300k .. 7 stars. but plarium only cares about your money. not your gaming experience.
When are you going to make good on the things you said you would do like the third dayly implant or the auto cannons they are the only ones with two and it's impossible for me to get the achievements with them now

So the bug that caused chat to lock up the game was fixed. However, the lock up problem has not. Now it is simply random. At the time of writing this, my game has locked up 7 times in the past 30 mins. There is no repeatable action. It happens randomly (except during matches. they seem unaffected) but it will lock up when returning to your hangar after a match, while chatting, checking your inventory... at any moment. and the only way to fix it is to completely close and restart the game.
Seriously making it hard to play and enjoy the game at this point.
