Problems with continuing saved games.

In Frontline: Road to Moscow, players take command of the German army through some of the most famous battles of World War II, leading the mighty Wehrmacht on towards Moscow.

Problems with continuing saved games.

Post by MesaDon »

Have had problems when I come back to a saved game only the German units appear, the Soviets have vanished. On two occasions I was rewarded with a victory (undeserved). Tried doing a restart with the same end result. I am playing on an iPad 2 with the latest version of IOS 7.

Thanks - how often does this happen and in any particular scenario or pattern to it?

This has happened with Mogilev and Ignyozdovo. Have not tried and battles beyond that. I believe the problem appeared after I purchased the two IAPs. Not 100% sure but do believe I did do a save prior to those purchases with no problem. Did do a restart after the purchases.

Played battles over again. Last one that played after returning from a save was Minsk. Problem did first appear with the battle of Mogilev. Hope this helps.

Hello,
Yes, fixing the SAVE/LOAD is the main priority of the next update.

Yes, I've noticed the following patters on my iPad Air. If you SAVE & EXIT, leave the app and let the iPad go to sleep, then come back, it seems in instigate discrepancies when the game is restored.

1. Vehicles - chiefly artillery, from what I can see - tend to be out of fuel after a restore.
2. Disappearing vehicles: enemy vehicles occasionally disappear after a restore attempt. I don't know what the rhyme or reason of the disappearances are, but they tend to be near the "front line" of action.

An amusing story about number 2: after one failed restore attempt, I attempted to leave the game and come back, and found a completely empty map - no vehicles, enemy or friendly, but a lot of reinforcement points!

Great game, though, and very addictive, but individual battles have become so long that I can't finish them in one sitting any more.

We are getting close to two months and the save feature still is not fixed. Is this going to happen or did I waste my money for:
1. The game.
2. The IAPs that I purchased.
Since I only play a few minutes during spare time the lack of a working save makes this the App the equivalency of the proverbial boat anchor.

Other posts have wondered if this game is being supported, I wonder also. Owning many Slitherine games both IOS and PC since FOG came out I an surprised at this.

We have had a few issues with the fixes (some of them were affecting other mechanism in game).
We will deploy the new patch for last review today/tommorow. If everything's ok, we'll take it live.
Thank you for the patience!
