Update Today To Improve Mobile Performance

Note: I tried posting this in the thread I started titled, “I Literally Can’t Play” but it wouldn’t me post because I was the last to reply, hence the second thread.

According to the link I’ve posted below, there should be an update later today that will supposedly improve the performance on mobile.

The app was working just fine and after I re-installed Arcane Tracker, it froze up when I had a possibility of winning - which may have been my first win today.

The Universe is testing my patience today. I truly enjoy Hearthstone and my approach to the game is much more positive after my break: its so sad that these issues are happening.

so is a HS issue or is a tracker one because if using a tracker is causing the game to crash you cant blame it on blizzard …

I honestly don’t know for sure: it froze twice on me today.

Once when I opened it and it froze during loading without tracker and then after my 3rd match (I think?) I re-installed Tracker, and played a 2 or 3 matches and then it froze up mid-match.

Given the amount of players that are experiencing issues, no telling how many use Tracker and how many do not use Tracker.

I don’t use tracker and it still crash. It’s definitely an android issue. Lucky my S10 can load the game in less than 1 min 30 seconds and the deck I use don’t require me to play more than 2 cards a turn lol.

I was hoping they’d fix this before the next expansion. I’ve lost too many games simply cause my game crashed and wouldn’t reload.

According to the comments in Reddit, it will be a few hours for mobile update: details are below!

they said the update adding BG to the game was going to have a fix included

I’m thinking that the mobile bug might be a memory-eating issue, which running Arcane Tracker would further exacerbate. This isn’t the first instance I’ve seen of someone saying that removing AT helped with the bug.

Pretty sure the core issue is still with HS, though.

Mobile has been infested with issues for more than a month and one of the mods even had the nerve to ban me for 14 days for daring to speak about the collateral and how they try to save face by pretending to care, meanwhile Chinese overlord Netease is hulking over them, watching and approving their moves.

I’ve said it then and I’ll say it even harsher now because at this point I have lost my patience and I really don’t care. 5+ years of support and defending and introducing my friends who don’t speak English to the game because it really is good. But this is the quality that we may come to accept from Blizzard from now on.

I HAVE A PHONE GUYS. A perfectly functioning one too. Has nobody tried to launch the game to playtest on android before update? It crashes every 20 minutes on average and in some devices, it crashed even more frequently. Unbelievable, surreal and a disappointing act of negligence and incompetency; truly trying times for this game’s loyal fans, be it f2p players or donators.

This is the state of once beloved company; a pillar of entertainment and quality story, setting and character writing lying in ruins and bug infested mess that reeks of greed and mishaps. Care a little please. Don’t say you do, just do care for real.

Edit: what made it even more nerve wracking is that my pc has been water damaged and I literally have had nothing but my phone for the last 40+ days. The bug was just right on time :slight_smile:

Dont use any trackers or anything. Literally just play on mobile, android and for the last couple monthes i get the game freezing everyday at least a couple times. Have to shut down and restart game and always loose the game i was in.
