Instant Crashing - The Cause (iPhone 6, iOS 8.4)

Post » Sun Feb 14, 2016 10:29 am

Hello everyone. Awhile ago I made a thread complaining about the instant crashes. I recently deleted and reinstalled the game, and had to use the time glitch to get back to where I was before, since I won't purchase anything until this is fixed. However, that's beside the point. I'm here to tell you I think I know the cause of the instant title screen crashes. I'm talking about the ones when you start the app and maybe get 5 seconds in before it crashes again.



What I think caused this is the phone (or the app) signing into a MAC filtered internet. My parents have a thing where they outlaw certain times at night for their stuff and since the crashing started directly at 11pm last night, it's the same time as when the internet "turns off". However since it doesn't truly turn off, and only filters what devices get in, I think this is what causes it. I don't know if the crashing can be reversed but if anymore info is needed feel free to contact me.

It's possible that your router blocking specific devices via MAC filtering causes instant connectivity loss, but the permanent fatal crash is almost certainly caused by how the game behaves when this happens. It somehow corrupts the running game and permanently blocks access to the game, period, including other vaults you may have. No solution, and from what I can see here, no one really gives a damn. Which is a shame. I get the same crash without any MAC Filtering.
