Game will no longer load my vault

Post » Thu Feb 18, 2016 4:29 pm

After 2 days my vault no longer loads.. As soon as you select Enter Vault game appears to be loading but then crashes back to android screen. Have spent lots of time and some money so please can this be fixed??

Same problem here. The game worked fine for 1 day, but now it doesn't even go after the first loading screen. I opened a topic about it and people are having the same issue.

Let's hope they can fix it for existing games

"The bug appears to crop up when a phone dies in the middle of gameplay, or when it runs out of memory. What happens subsequently is that when Fallout Shelter is restarted, and it either resets all progress made in the game (by trying to get players to start a new vault) or it continually crashes a few frames into the loading screen. The bug has save files reset to 0 kb, meaning they’re blank, which so far, seems to result in a total, irreversible loss of progress. There are no known fixes for the bug yet, as even re-installation doesn’t appear to solve the issue."

Just like Daklausus says it doen't happen only when battery goes down. I had almost full battery when it happened. I just put my phone down and next time when I took it and tried to enter Fallout Shelter it crashed.

Exactly. Just to put everything short:


1: THE GAME WORKS FINE

2: YOU LEAVE YOUR PHONE FOR A FEW MINUTES

3: YOU COME BACK AND TRY TO PLAY

4: THE GAME WON'T EVEN PASS AFTER THE LOADING SCREEN FOR THE APP (it crashes and your main cellphone screen appears)


Some people have reported it to happen after their phones ran out of battery while playing the game. But this is not something needed for the game to crash. Some, like mine, crashes for no apparent reason.


I've seen some other posts on other topics saying about an issue, after the new update for IOS mostly, where the saves are crashing. This is another issue. Please don't mix it here guys. Thanks :D

My tablet battery didn't run out either. I didn't even leave my tablet. Just closed the game and went to check back on how they were doing and it crashed. I closed the game the right way (not leaving it open on the background). My tablet has a fair amount of memory and I always close all my other apps.

I'm starting to think they won't fix it. I guess I'll uninstall the game. Such a pitty. I had really high expectations about this game.

I'm holding really hard to this game. I'm really putting all my expectations on Bethesda. Please don't let me down.


The game doesn't work yet. Getting really frustrated.

After I hit 28 dwellers, the game does not load anymore.


This is the second time it happened and it's obviously a bug.


When will you fix this?!

Obtained a refund from Google for purchases, no questions asked. I doubt I'll bother with this again.
