(Dang, this should have been in support) :oops:

I've been having intermittent problems on Kindle Fire HD for several days now. I was unable to re-subscribe after my first 30 day sub expired.

I thought it might be a trouble with my Amazon account so I made sure everything is clear on that end. Today I reinstalled the game from the Amazon store and was able to play one game. When I tried to get into another game I hit subscribe and it returned to the first dogfight menu screen. I hit multiplayer then play and then tried to subscribe again. It went back to the first menu screen again and said that there was a problem accessing the Amazon app store. Then the screen went black. Exited, tried to log in. Black screen again.


Edit: Tried again after writing this. I was able to get to the appstore before it froze. Then appstore did not respond. I had to restart the device.


I can access the game fine on my phone. (just cant see well enough on the small screen with these old eyes.) I can log into the forum from my phone or PC. My Kindle works fine for all other apps.

No Dogfight. :(



2nd Edit: Restarted the Kindle logged in. Hit subscribe. Went to app purchase. hit subscribe for $1.99. It said I have already subscribed. Now I have access to all maps. :blink:

Got Dogfight back but now I need to go make dinner. :S



3rd Edit: (Hour later) The game works, tough it sometimes takes several tries to log in. I often have to force close he app. Also the entire device has become glitchy.


4th Edit: (Two hrs later) couldn't log in at all. Some times get all the way to "waiting for available game" then it says "Dogfight not responding: Would you like to close it? Wait/OK" The device seems more glitchy now.

I'm going to remove the app from the device and see if it returns to normal.

Hi McFate,

better move to Windows 8.1 on PC. No problem of Subscription, battery backup for long games and updates are little faster.

I'm working into the Kindle issues today, hopefully I can solve them. It is giving lot of trouble on my kindle too and I haven't found out yet the reason.

I was able to run it finally on my old kindle!
I've just sent it to Amazon and it should be approved in a few hours if they don't find any trouble on their tests.

It is still somewhat intermittent.

I seem to be able to get a couple of games in or be on the forum for a little while but it eventually will lose connection or go black while trying to enter a game.

It will often go black (still has sound) while trying to re-enter. To exit I have to shut down the device. As it shuts down, it briefly shows the df screen just before turning off.

I've been going to "installed applications" and doing a "force stop" from time to time and it seems to help.

Well, they lied to you. I know for a fact that people show up correctly on the map if they are not on apple because I can see all devices on my screen and not a single time they showed up wrong unless it was apple.

As for the reloading on carrier, which type of mission? I'm not able to reproduce it. I just played right now a capture the carrier game, landed into my captured carrier and reloaded no problem.
I'm trying to find a bomb the carrier mission to check it out too.

I just tried to play. :(

The optimization scene and the intro ran. The automatic settings were all graphics on except "detailed landscape". I tried to enter a game. (Defend the zep) lots of freezing, it took almost a minute to exit the game. I went to settings and adjusted to my usual (all off except detailed landscape).

Got stuck on "loading" black screen +5 minutes. "Dogfight not responding" . Exited. Tried again. Got in a btb. It took almost a full minute from the time my plane first appeared to when the throttle would respond. I managed to fly fairly smoothly for a couple of runs then it started freezing for about ½ second at a time. I got shot down and tried to type "gtg, too glitchy" but it would not post. It took about ½ a minute for the keyboard to close before I could exit the game.

I tried to go to the forum from the game and got to the index but it became unresponsive. I exited and entered the forum from a web browser. It worked fine and I posted this.

:pinch:


Edit: Everything works fine on my galaxy s4 phone.

If I see an apple player off in left field when he is actually on the carrior would he not see the same from me? Or would it not show us somewhere different? I was figuring that may be the case here. that is just the first thing that popped into the head when I read this.

I had some good games this morning. A little bit of lag but nothing too bad or unusual.
