    Default Random freezes and crashes?

    I just downloaded the Star Legends Beta today but I got the issue with freezing and crashing all the time :-( It's a really great game but its ruining my game experience that I have to log out and in again everytime the screen freezes (and ping goes crazy)... I've played it like a half hour and I had 8-10 freezes.. As far I know is my connection really strong and I can play PL with no lag/a little lag so I don't know why SL is freezing and crashing :-( I'm playing on a HTC Desire non-rooted .. Anyone else having a similar issue? Would be great if it could get fixed fast ^^

    I get the same but it was put down to lack of ram on my phone but even when the game itself runs smooth then all of a sudden bang freeze drop home. Annoying isn't it lol

    If ping goes crazy, it is a problem with your connection, or network conditions between you and the servers. The existing PL and SL clusters are not being hosted in the same location, so your connection may be fine to one but not the other.

    This doesn't at all sound like the same thing you've been reporting thug, unless you described it really really badly before. Kaotiicx doesn't have the app frozen, as the ping is still going up (meaning the app is still running, just messages aren't getting through to/from the servers).

    Hmm.. Thx Futumsh I tried playing SL again today but the ping still goes crazy at sometimes.. Sometimes it takes longer time before it do that and sometimes it do it very fast.. I'm playing on WiFi, and only me on it (gotta try the WiFi at my dad's place lol)... But are there anything I might be able to do to prevent this issue? Anyone with knowledge about this are very welcome to give me a tip ;-)

    I have the same problem with ping time skyrocking and not coming down again. I have only experienced it in the "game" areas. If I stay in "towne" on the Blackstar I get ping times between 200-500 (in PL I usually have below 200 at all times). But when I enter the "game" areas I only get between 2-5 minutes of play before the ping time problem kicks in. Until the problem starts ping time is also between 200-500. When ping rises all enemies and other player characters freezes while my character can move around. The experience is not at all like it was when PL was plagued with ping problems where it would normally resolve itself after a while.
    If I try to go back to the Blackstar when having this problem I am stuck at the "Loading" screen. If however I choose to quit and log out, then immediately log back in I can join the same game I left and play for a few minutes until the problem comes back. I have tried playing on several WIFI connections with different ISPs and different bandwiths (10-100MB) and 3g. All of them exhibit this behavior.
    While it is valid that I can not compare ping time with PL if it is hosted in a different location that does not explain why I only have this problem in the "game" areas. Please look into this - I have been looking forward to playing Star Legends for so long only to find out it is nearly unplayable.

    No, since I don't got free 3g I won't play on 3g.. The price is like 2$ for every MB ..

    I can't say it better than that ;-) Exactly the problem I got and I'm using the exact same device..

    So far I've tried: Turning off and on phone, deleted SL twice and reinstalled, turned off my WiFi in around 30 seconds and then back again to fix this.. Nothing helped so far.. I'm not sure about what my next step is to try fix this.. I might try download the .apk (since my version is direct from market) but it won't be any surprise if it won't work..

    Nope, my patches are all complete.. I'm still confused about why it won't work cuz now I've tried to download the .apk too but that don't help either.. Still getting those crazy high pings and everything freezes (except me) .. I don't know if it's the Beta version that is causing those accidents and the full version might remove this..

    I have also been having this problem.

    Just started playing today on my Samsung Galaxy S2. The freezing usually happens in the middle of an instance run and not when I'm in town.
    Pretty annoying since I've got to exit out of the game and then re-open it. I've tried playing on both my wifi and 3g connection with both
    coming up with pretty much the same issue. Nothing wrong though since I'm playing on decent ping levels.

    Funny enough I get the exact same problem also on stock galaxy S2, when the screen freezes the ping is usually below 500.
    Always happens in instances and rarely get to join the same game I left so have to run the instance again from the beginning.
    Extremely frustrating.

    Default SGS2

    same here, playing on SGS2.
    game seem to crash as well on an instance, ping goes crazy when i use my wifi (12.5 Mb) and when i use my 3g it runs ok (except the crashes)
    it also drink my battery like kool aid.. ~2 hours of gameplay drained half of my battery... i think its mainly cuz the game does not support dual core so much.

    plz fix before i give up!!

    all right after a quick look in PL forum i found a thread like this one.
    seems as if the main problem is with samsungs sound driver or something like that, so there is a semi solution:
    use a 1.5 lite'ning rom, start the music app, leave it in the background and then play

    i have'nt tried it, but a lot did and still no complain
    i have a 2.0 litening rom and it crashes, another one tried 5.0 and still it crashes.
    so i guess 1.5 is the way to go
