online bug coin toss freeze

[Holali]

Hello,
it is my duty to report another bug in Full Ace multipalyer. I wonder why noone has done it yet, it's quite a long time we all experience this bug.
Problem is during coin toss, choosing serve and side. Game just freezes in 90% of cases. Not always, sometimes we manage to play, but we usualy have to go through multiple attemps.
Sand-watch appears in corner, players wait to proceed, but game freezes. All yo can do is to quit game through windows task manager.

Anyone should do something with it.

[Holali]

And PLEASE, do something with it quickly!!!

Yeah, this bug is really really annoying.

Could you get a screenshot of what is displayed when the toss gets stuck ?

[Kafelnikov]

Nothing is displayed, you just can't select the side of the coin and the game remains stuck there for ages waiting for you to choose but due to the bug you can't choose anything, also if this bug happens and you press ESC you can't go into the chat/menu option either, to quit the game you have to use the Windows Task Manager and shut the program from there. By the way this bug doesn't happen just when you have to choose the side of the coin, sometimes it also happens when you have to choose the side of the court after the coin toss.

Actually, I was asking for a screenshot to see at which exact point during the toss process it gets stuck.

Just do something with it, aghh!!

Your game has become unplayable online, almosost nobody bothers to come to loby now.
Just remember what you changed last time,

AND --- DO --- SOMETHING,
or you can burry the game into the ground.

we already told you everything, game freezes during coin toss, choosing side/serve, or during preparation rally.
We just see sandclock and thats all, game runs, but doesnt proceed. End. Now ITS YOUR TURN.

Here is where the game gets stuck : http://www.freeimagehosting.net/69mck
It also gets stuck when you have to change the side of the court a lot.

This happens basicly all the time now. We simply can't play online anymore.

I just released a new version that I hope will fix these issues. In either case, please let me know.

Seems to be working now, we are able to play online again.

Keep up the good work, and try not to releasy any other downgrade .

What you said sounds rather insulting, but maybe because of a language barrier. I think what you meant is to ask him to please check the game updates more carefully for bugs? Either way, it's probably very difficult to pick up on the bugs even with testing, especially with such a small dev team.
