Crashes, not levelling, no intro anymore

[csquake]

Hi, hope this info helps fix your game because it 'would be' the best game on iPhone if you fix it. At the moment it is not good for anything.

I played it a while ago and enjoyed it, levelled a few times, bought a few things, and then the problems started. I can't give you an account of what happened because I've deleted and reinstalled the game so many times and had so many problems ...

Instead, I am going to give you a diary of what happens now!

1) Here we go, I will download it yet again and install it.
2) OK, downloaded and installed. Next I will click the icon.
3) WOW! this is a new one! ...

"Low Memory Warning. Your device is low on memory and Aurora Feint may unexpectantly close. If you continue to receive this notice, try powering off your device and restarting. Don't worry though, your game progress was just automatically saved."

4) AF wouldn't carry on, basically I kept clicking 'OK' and the message would disappear and then come back again. After finding some info on this here: aurorafeint.proboards100.com/index.cgi?board=world&action=display&thread=775&page=1 ... I then decided to reboot my iPhone.

5) The reboot worked! joy. However, I have yet again failed to see the intro - this means that I have never seen it!

6) I see map screen, and an instruction to say 'lets mine'.

7) I go to mine ...

8) I get a message saying "You must complete your existing challenges in order to level up"

9) I quit here, I already know that it wont let me level up from here. Basically I go into the mine and rack up loads of points and crystals and no levelling. I also cannot buy anything what-so-ever.

10) Interestingly I think this might be linked to the servers? That might be a good place for you guys to look to fix this. Or is the failed code on my iPhone even though I delete it?

Good luck with this game and let us all know when it's fixed because I'm looking forward to playing it properly!!

I was going throught the same thing yesterday. What I did was to reset my character (so I lost everything I had mined ). When playing w/ the new character I was prompted to level up, which I did.
So in short, what worked for me was:

1) Reset my character's stats.
2) Play, and follow all the instructions.

Phew, ok, thanks a lot for that info! It has released the game for me to carry on playing. I just hope it doesn't crash or lockup again though.

If coders see this, you still need to fix all these issues!! If new iPhone users have these problems, they may not all be as forgiving as us!

Yeah, a lot of the bugs will be fixed in the next few updates. Sorry that you had to reset your stats (I was at a few thousand crystals and then AF reset!)! Right now though, rebooting seems like the best way to get AF to work.

csquake: You're welcome! My account has not locked up since I did this. So, I believe that you should be good.
