So for this weekend’s “vault” event, it’s a waste of time. We’ll have to play in downgraded mode. ---

Testing means in this case they do the bare minimum to get it approved. There is no testing in this product otherwise. Not even the news article are checked for errors before published.

As always, poor testing was done before the 8.1 patch was released. The issue where the game crashes on the new victory pop-up screen could have been easily seen (and corrected) had the devs properly tested for this. “Yeah, let’s not try to button mash after a victory during a time when speed gets you more resources…” Now you have the entire player base across all platforms worried about this vault weekend and have your CMs trying to put out fires. I wish that the devs would come out of hiding and take accountability for this. We are not amused. ---

Mods were on here yesterday - they’re asleep now it’s the middle of the night in Australia. Building the slightest hesitation after all enemies are killed into my mash habit was a task last night but I’ve found my groove and haven’t had a reset in over 500 matches (knocking on all zee wood). This too shall pass - hopefully with a bonus Vault Weekend as an apology. ---

Well said, "Mr. Second Coming of Awesome."🦸‍♂️ I have found ways around the game crash and have found a sweet spot of when to not press the “A” button after a victory. Breaking the habit of button mashing during vault weekend will be tough though… I will probably just collect gnome verses this weekend and aim for a reasonable amount of pity keys to feel like it isn’t completely wasted. Cut my losses and prepare for the next vault weekend so that I won’t get frustrated with losing precious resources. ---

That’s a really good strat for this weekend - get to like 10 Pity Keys and just verse farm the rest of it to prep for the next. ---

> [@McDoubleDad](#): > > …but I’ve found my groove and haven’t had a reset in over 500 matches (knocking on all zee wood). Meaning that as long as this works, people can run a GAP as normal? I for one never intentionally skipped the victory animation, simply because I didn’t know it was even skippable. Maybe this was an _actual_ design change with 8.1? ---

There’s gonna be some reset frustrations early on even by me but 3xIHDD can still pull 65+ battles if one’s brain can retrain. This is an extremely sucky short-term issue but I’ve already seen how the game plays faster with the Victory animation overlapping the Rewards screen. Next VW (hopefully surprise sooner than expected) it’s gonna go from suck to sick 😜 ---

We’re going go need a repeat vault event. This is not ok even when I’m not skipping animations it crashes. What testing was done in the first place? Yknow apart from the store. Sure that’s not broken ---

On an aside, while I may not have a habit of spamming buttons/input upon winning a battle – I _most definitely_ spam buttons/input at the conclusion of a Treasure Hunt run to speed up the cash-out animations, but this (fortunately) failed to trigger any crashes with 8.1.0 . It also occurs AFTER the server sync, but before switching to the rewards screen. ---

After today update on PC bug returned ☹ It doesn’t say much but I got it after citadel fight. Second time “Continue” button freezed for 5-6s (clicked it couple of times and nothing happened) and suddenly start working again - it might be something with server communication which is terrible today?
