Windows Feels Like A Bad Dream

[Deleted member 5399]

Wash, rinse and repeat.
So many things we do daily, that we might do over and over again that ARE pleasant.
BUT THIS!!!!

Again I can't gather up the gifts neighbors sent, can't visit, can't even remove sleepers from my neighbor list.
I feel like I'm being punished by GI again.

You nightmare is my dream. The last time I could visit/gift/launch etc etc was a week ago.

That I can just about cope with, although letting my alliance team mates down on missions and pax is disheartening, also not standing a change of completing the event. However, GI Support asking to try restarts, hard closes and send crash logs when they know a hotfix is in the pipeline has really irked me. It was only today they finally acknowledged it on Facebook and they haven't had the decency to update players who have raised tickets. Its very poor.

I updated my game just yesterday and update 6.1.5 made things worse for my game. it now takes over 3 minutes to visit one neighbor. Also It takes so much time to take gifts, specially if you are being careful so you don't return the wrong gift. and to add to that my game now randomly crashes and loses 10 minutes to hours of progress when I start it back up. It feels like that July-August Windows version of AC

Same problem here. Yesterday I was able to do a couple of launches and send a few gifts, but this morning, 1 gift sent, no others will go out. Can't collect any gifts or visit neighbors. I should be thankful - at least my game isn't crashing or losing progress! AC on facebook mentions that if you are playing on IOS, a fix is on the way. They don't mention the problems for windows & android players. Hoping they have all these problems solved sometime soon.

The way I see the pattern is this.................

If you want to collect, visit and gift to and from neighbors; do it right after the reset @ 18:00 UTC-6.
I see all other times of the day/night the servers are erratic on making the proper connections.

also i have found if you pick and choose some lower level players you can get 3-4 with at least 2 of them counting, then CRASH

Guys, collecting gifts was apparently changed from local operation to the server side (because now you can't collect your gifts in offline). So, not only delay of your internet was added, but considerable load to servers as well. And they're not doing well, because one moment everything is fine and few seconds later it's sluggish as hell.
All we can do is to wait until they up their infrastructure.
