The button to get to the cloud mode setting works 1 out of 4 tries on my Android device. Once it is enabled, I can get around the “updating your progress bug” but an even better bug presents itself after that.

This bug happens if you choose to watch a video to double your rewards. If the video is watched while cloud load is disabled then the game pretty much freezes. You can enter exit various screens but you cannot enter any new nodes to play. The only work around for that is to exit the game and come back in. This is terrible with a competition going on.

And I agree that not performing upgrades is absolutely silly. Instant upgrade is not feasible unless you give us the gems to get around your bug. I always have an upgrade running – especially given that my upgrades take 2-3 days at this juncture. I have no character lower than level 12.

This problem is not resolved. Just updated to version 1.10.5.3 and a day later this message haunts the game.

Put the phone into airplane mode and it can be played. One can even play several nodes. As soon as it is taken out of airplane mode, the coins, nodes, collections (coins to collect), pigs popped, gems, missions all reset to the prior cloud version save point.

I sit at level 429 with an upgrade in progress that will never finish apparently due to this bug.
There is no setting on this version to disable cloud loading (i have checked every nook and cranny under settings some of which can’t be accessed unless you are connected to the internet – another terrible decision there).

I do not have the game connected to facebook (wish that feature would be removed).

In short, the qa for this latest release was pretty piss-poor.

Oh and before you start the whole thing about multiple devices – I play on a single device.
