Yesterday and today I am having a very tough time getting into A Temple of Abaad.
Is anyone else getting kicked out of the game every (I mean EVERY) time they try to get into that map? It's limited time and I really want to finish it!

Yep, having the same problem as you. I'm on 19/40 and everytime I want to enter the Temple of Abaad map, the game crashes to iOS home screen. Really annoying. I've tried shutting my iPod completely down and restarting, to no avail. I've shutdown almost all other apps, so it shouldn't be a memory problem.

I hope they fix it asap, cause I too want to get as far as I can in this otherwise very fine LTQ

Pleas email them through the game too! I just did!

Annoying! I want to finish this limited quest!!

Same problem on ipad1. I'm going into one map higher then going into the temple map. That seems to work 80% of the time. Concerned as more bosses load onto the map that it will become worse though.

Yeah, having the same prob on iPad... the Temple is too full of monsters, too, not saying that's the problem for all the crashes, but I cannot get into the temple now without a crash... (grr.) ...turning my iPad off/on didn't help, so I'm re-installing KA now...

Thats the first thing I though of when I started to see more bosses loading onto one map.

Too many unit loads onto 1 map theres a chance its going to crash when I started to see this but my device is fine.

Depends on your device too.

12-29-2012, 10:44 AM
Oh!! I thought I was imagining it but there ARE too many monsters! I think that might be the same problem.
Yep, I have an iPad I too. Is it only our problem? Any 2 or 3s having trouble?

I am having the same issues. I cannot access Abaad anymore either 20/40. Ipad gen 1. I've tried numerous times, gone to other maps then shifted back to Abaad, restarted, re-installed but to no avail.... I got in once, attacked the owlbear a couple of times then crashed out. I sent in a ticket as well.

12-29-2012, 11:10 AM
I think all of us sending tickets might be the only way to get this fixed and extended (maybe)

I'm having the same problem too. As a work-around, I access another map first, then I travel to the Temple of Abaad instead of going there straight from my kingdom. That seems to be working for now.

I am having the same problem but luckily I am 24/40 through it and have done all the same things as everyone else had. SO frustrating for sure, I've just kept reloading it and reloading it until I get back to Abaad and I just leave it there and check back once in a while. I am glad I'm not the only one it's doing it too, it's bad enough my Modern War already does this, I don't need TWO games doing it!

I'm going to try the other maps and then go to Abaad. I hope that helps.. Good luck everyone!

Finished the event with no crashes, but the last 3 dragons were hard to attack because there were always 4 or 5 other monsters under or around them. But the end results were worth it

Same issue once got to around 18/40 on my iPad 1.

Current solution is to go to The unsanctified marsh, then The vault of set and after that try to get to the Temple of Abaad.

Not 100% successful but can get there eventually.

This problem seems to be getting worse. I'm now on 26/40 and I can only get into the map via a reinstall. This is really slowing my progress.... Lousy iPad1...

I would really appreciate a workaround. Anyone?

This LTQ is beginning to feel like a box event, where you have a certain CHANCE to get something. Each time now, when i start up KA i'm hoping to get to the Temple of Abaad, but i'm having luck as if i'm trying to open a box for free.

I begin to believe it was a bad move from the devs to set all quests in one area

SangerPride
12-29-2012, 04:16 PM
I'm beginning to wonder if it has something to do with SO many people trying to access the same temple? I was having luck just reloading and eventually getting in, but now I am locked out and have energy to burn! I feel like it's a ticket offering on ticketmaster I might have better luck! haha

This event is just too tasty to try and not get everything you can for sure... 31/40 down and I've used a 100 gems. I wonder how many it's going to take with regular play and 3 + days to go at level 63? any ideas

I just checked diagnotics on my iPod 4g, and it seems to be a problem with low memory. Can't figure out how to circumvent that though, nor don't know the exact cause of the memory problem.

I've shutdown almost all apps running in the background, so I'm not sure about what's left to do

I think it's got to do with internal memory, RAM. Ipad1 only had 256MB of ram, IPad2 got 512MB of ram, and the IPad3 got 1Gig of ram.

Got from level 19 to level 23 by accessing a different map and then selecting the Temple map from there.

At quest 24 and that no longer works, tried.

Close all other activities.
Delete and reload game.
Access all other maps and then the Temple map.
Went into the various screens to let all the various icons reload.
Try to access from the Goals section, the map icon on the My Kingdom screen and the maps selection section.

Think King Gabriel has nailed it as a memory issue. They probably forgot to test it out on an iPad 1.

I'm almost positive this is my problem: not enough space & need to update my iPad1, badly... this is the last thing I want to do on New Year's weekend, but if I don't get the temple to load, I might be updating for New Years, heh, Happy New Years!

Hi Mr. Vain... I've never used an iPod, but if you have a lot of Screen Shots or pictures saved, you can try deleting those. That's what takes up too much space in my iPad anyway.

Mr. Vain
12-29-2012, 05:46 PM
I've only got 20 pictures on my device and more than a gig free space, so I don't think that could be the issue. Now I can start and go delete all sorts of apps, but come on, that shouldn't be really necessary to play a simple game like this, should it?
Now, I'm not a computer expert at all, but I really believe crowding the Temple of Abaad map with all the monsters from this quest is the real culprit here. It that is in fact the case, I wonder how tech-savvy the devs are if they can't foresee such problems

12-29-2012, 07:00 PM
yah, im having the same issue as well, though i will say with enough persistence i can eventually get it to load. Im thinking it may have something to do with an overload of mobs in one area, when it does finally load in its extremely laggy

True, now it's an event likely to boost sales in iPads as people get frustrated and use them as frisbees.

Tried all the usual ideas as well s some off beat stuff, still no joy. Reminds me of the problems I had with MW when I first started that game on the iPad.

Will see how far I can get on my LLP which on the iPhone works fine. Been a great event for that character. Doubled the monster attack score with two high Mage weapons so reckon in the long run the experience cost will be more than supplemented.

I'm on ipad1 at 28/40 and have done this to access the Temple map.

- double click the home button and close down all open apps.
- go into settings and turn off Bluetooth (or anything that uses RAM).
- open KA and go to a map other than Temple.
- open the Temple map.

Hope this helps

Edit - turn off Bluetooth first then close settings. You can also turn off the weather settings in options which may also help the map load?

Nobody has posted any, so go for it... lol, I hijacked my son's new (& 1st) iPhone that he got for Christmas just to finish Set's Challenge. It was quicker than revamping my iPad1 & less frustrating than constantly reloading the game. But, it is so hard to see the fun! I hope they get it worked out soon after the new year. Good luck, Zesder!

in my ipod touch I am stuck at task #19, it has taken me the whole day to do 18 and part of 19, because the game crashes at least 15 times before I manage to get to the task, and now, is even worse, I manage to get to the map for task #19, and the Pit lord is gone when he had more than half his HP gone,
I have lost a whiole day not to mention the use of the energy

I too was locked out of the temple of Abaad from my iPad. I disabled Bluetooth and managed to get in, and then invested some energy in cleaning up the old bosses on the level. It's a pain because it means we have to kill them an extra time but it is working reliably for me at the moment.

My touch gen 3 is bogged down at 24/40. After multiple tries I have gotten in and now I am just keeping it on and whacking one hit at a time as energy comes back. Gonna try not to let it close anymore, just in case.

Having same problem and not yet fixed...irritating. Would be helpful if the same ID could be used on different devices when this type of error occurred, rather than the fact that you start a new game if you have 2 devices because that would temporarily get around the problem.

No, you won't lose a thing, but time when you have to go thru the tutorial again. GL! and welcome to the forum, Aya :)

BUT....!

I think GREE got it fixed! When I transferred back to my iPad, it is not crashing anymore & most of the mosters are gone from the Temple! But, I did lose some progress & had to do 32/40 again... I hope everybody else is finding the TQ less glitchy!

I tried deleting and reinstalling. Still have all the bosses I ad before and still crashes. The only thing that has helped me was I wasted 400-500 energy and re-killed a bunch of the first bosses (the 1 hot ones). They did not regenerate again and that helped a lot.

Haven't seen this mentioned, so I'll throw it out there... I turned off weather effects and music and sound and it seems to take longer to freeze me out that way. Probably a good idea to turn off all ipad services you absolutely don't need while playing just to be sure you have every bit of memory free as possible. Bluetooth as someone mentioned, location services, etc...

I'm still seeing the same behavior. Also on an Ipad 1.... I have found that if I delete the app and reinstall that I can make it to the map where the bosses are supposed to be. However, I actually have to exit KA , come back in, and then very slowly the bosses will start to appear. The app will tend to crash in about 20 minutes, but it does give me some time. Definitely a huge PITA to keep doing this, so I have submitted a ticket.

I have lost a whiole day not to mention the use of the energy

sent a ticket, but who know when I will hear from them

Hello, I had the same exact problem with my iPod touch 4 (32 GB). It was the same task #19 when the crashes started. I tried all the normal stuff like clearing my memory and only running KA. I tried all the tricks of going to a different map location and then Abaad, but nothing worked. It would crash like clockwork everything I tried to enter Abaad.

Like yourself I have also sent in a ticket, but I am not putting any hope in having an official Gree blessed resolution before this LTQ ends.

Finally after much hours of frustration I found the following worked for me:

1) Delete KA from your apps. Simply keep the KA icon pressed until the icon wiggles and the little x shows up in the icons upper left corner. Press the x and wait for the "this will delete all the data and settings" press delete. (Please note that Gree's servers still have all your KA settings tied to your iPod's UDID so if/when you reinstall KA you loose nothing.)

2) Open Apple's apps icon and search for and reinstall KA. This takes about 5 min or less.

3) Now open your just reinstalled KA app. Don't go into Abaad at this point we are still setting things up.

4) Open the "more" button and click on settings.

5) Turn off everything in the settings.

6) If you want to purchase gems for energy buy them at this point not later.

7) Now exit KA by pressing the home button once.

8) Now open KA again and wait for you home kingdom to show up.

9) Now click on your quests icon and open the top one (the new LTQ).

10) Click on the current LTQ button to now take you to the Temple of Abaad.

11) Wait, wait wait for the icons to all appear and the icons start to move (albeit slowly).

12) The target monster should have a green arrow over them so wait until you have a clear shot to select them.

13) Keep selecting your target until they are dead or you run out of energy.

14) If you still have energy and a 2nd (or 3rd) target for this goal keep going until you run out of energy.

15) If you have completed your goal (and its less than 40) exit and start over at step 1.

16) If you have not completed your goal and have no gems to buy more energy exit and wait and then start over at step 1.

17) If you have not completed your goal and you have gems to by more energy decide if you want to use your gems at this point. Continue until you run out of energy and/or gems or you complete this goal of the LTQ. Then exit and start over at step 1.

Notes:
-Do not buy gems during your fight in Abaad I have found that this causes the crash to reoccur at which point you will swear at Gree or yourself which really does you no good.
-There are reasons for each step and why I reinstall KA after every goal. To explain my testing would take too long so I am just giving you my recipe not the full reasons for each step.

I have used the above method from stage 19/40 to now 34/40. So far so good, but the monsters do seem to move even slower. I hope I make it to 40.

Cheers, and good luck!

Well, MeowMix. It worked, at least for 2 more stages. A very time consuming thing to do, but as long as there's no official fix, this will have to do.

You might want to include to not to doanything besides killing your target. I wanted to buy some army armor and it crashed again. Serves me right for wanting to keep my cash at hand under 330k.

So back to step 1 for me :(

So back to step 1 for me :(

A couple other ideas from my testing to avoid this crash:

- Delete any apps runng in the background cache memory:
Outside of any app at the main screen press the home button 2 times quickly.
A small area at the bottom will show up and show any apps currently held or running in the background cache memory. To delete the "background apps" press on one of the app icon's at the bottom until they start to wiggle and the small x shows up in the upper corrner of each background app icon. Tap on each x to delete each background app.

- (this is for JB only devices) Using the SBSettings app use the "delete processes" and it's sub-menu item "free up memory".

- Just before you go back into KA for the 2nd time use the delete background app technique mentioned above.

PS: I have made more that ample free memory on my iPod 4 just in case it matters for this crash. I currently have 7gb free of the avalible 28gb ("32gb" unit)

-Goodluck :)

MeowMix - your instuctions are the same as what needs to be done on an ipad 1 as well. I've been burned today by trying to do too much at once. For instance, after a boss is killed, I've started to work on the next one only to see zero damage, but loss of energy. In fact, I seem to have lost a couple of hits worth of damage on the second of a three-part boss. Have you found you need to quit and re-install after killing individual bosses for the ones where you need to kill two or three?

You unfortunately discovered the "0 hit bug" as I call it. That bug drove me nuts. The only way to avoid it is:

- When you make a hit on a monster and you get no credit (also it seems the progress red bar showing the life left in the bad guy never shows up), exit KA and start again at step 1. http://www.funzio.com/forum/showthread.php?43397-Limited-Time-challenge-Set-s-Challenge-extremely-buggy&p=536802&viewfull=1#post536802

I have experienced this "0 hit bug" under different conditions and I was not particularly interested in diagnosising it further. I just wanted a away to avoid this bug when it comes up. Obviously I don't know all the ways/conditions this bug appers.

-Goodluck! :)

I'm on 22 but getting the crash nearly 75% of the time I try to enter the zone. The only way I've found to get in without a crash is to soluble tap the home button and completely close KA (I close out apps on a regular basis anyway) and then I can usually get right back in, sometimes it takes a couple tries. If I still can't get in after 4 or 5 attempts I restart my iPad and that does the trick.

Still unable to go any further, it keeps crashing. Support is trying to use my logs to see if there is anything they can do. I am bummed I am going to miss out on everything past (I think ) #19

The map is being overloaded by a crap load of extra mobs. i took the advice of who ever said to clear out all of those extra mobs and now I get in every time without fail. I am currently on challenge 30 or 31 I cannot remember (It is the one where you fight the Minotaur Bull)

Thanks for the tip! I just killed off some of the low level mob and they did not respawn. Amazing, like many assumptions that makes us all fools the assumption here was the mobs would respawn, But They Don't.

PS: Because the low level mobs don't appear to respawn you DO NOT want to reinstall KA after you kill the mob. A reinstall just brings back all the mob.

Now I am off to cry in my soup and get moving to step 40, currently I am on 38.

Excellent this works. Note that the normal mobs on this map won't respawn either and they are easy one hit kills. But basically just kill the lowest gold paying monster (they have the lowest hp) and work your way up.

yeah, this really sucks. I've been dealing with this problem as well for over a day now, and probably lost 3o full energy bars trying different things and waiting for a response from support.

their only solution was to reinstall.

I've reinstalled a few times now, it's the only way to be able to access that map

(why couldnt they just code it so that the monster disappeared after you killed it for the bosses? or that once the final quest monster was killed it was replaced by the spawned new target?)

really sucks because I thought I had a legit chance to finish with 100-200 gems, but I dont want to blow gems and not finish the entire thing if it's going to keep crashing and I cant access the map to complete the quests. I wanted to see how far I could get without gems first to see what my gem cost was going to be in the end to finish the final 3-6 quests...

hopefully gree will see all of the tickets and decide to extend the quest for another day or two...

I do agree, though, that without the bugs/crashes, this would have been the best game event yet by far. lower levels can complete several of the quests and get some nice units out of the deal, and higher level players can get further and/or use gems to finish the quest.

yes.

after originally crashing only when trying to access abaad map, I had also gotten crashes when viewing my inventory/items/units, and a couple of other pages.

early on, as others have said, I had luck going to one map and then to abaad, but that quit working after a few tries and now only delete and reinstall app works

I've also had trouble where the game seems to revert back to an earlier save, and I have to close out and reopen to get the proper stats, etc.

pretty sad that in order to try to participate in this LTQ after a certain point the only option is to delete and reinstall the game, play to burn through your energy, then rinse and repeat...

Only bug I had was having to rekill a boss when i went to admire my new armor, and it wasnt there - and lo and behold the quest was reset. But I'm fairly sure my energy was also reset.

I've been closing everything and shutting down before and after each time in the map. No issues other than trying to "catch" the darn boss with all their new friends milling about. It cracks me up. It also gives me itchy fingers - me wants to loot them all!! I have to remember to focus....

I'm on an IPhone 4S with 16g of storage.

This LTQ has been a real pain with the number of mobs filling the map causing crash after crash (iPod Touch 4G 64GB).
Even after killing off weaker ones the number of things tromping about seems to be a steady 30ish.

After 2 days of not even being able to get on the map and no word of reply from Tech Support (I posted a message when it started and 1 day later) I went to the iTunes store and wrote a 2 star review of KA. I suggest you do the same if you want anyone at Gree to take a blind bit of notice.

About 6 hours later I magically got a reply from the support department, asking me for crash logs and telling me to reinstall the game. I sent off the logs and reinstalled but still couldn't get on the map.

In the end I restored my iPod and only loaded the minimum amount of apps on it (not even any music), then it worked and let me on, I used a full bar of energy to kill as many lower cost mobs as possible. Still running like a ZX Spectrum but at least I'm back on the quests. Attempting Profile inspection still makes it crash and 50% of the time I can't view Rival's Profiles either. I can't wait for this LTQ to end and Gree's developers to stop stuffing their faces with Christmas leftovers so they can fix it with a patch. :mad:

I've sent in my crash logs too.
I've been doing the reinstall to enter trick but now I'm getting more problems. Yesterday I killed the minotaur bull and he just respawned then I got the 0 hit bug every so often.
I think I would have killed it about 3 times if all my hits registered.
Now I finally killed it and I'm at the Abyssal lord and it's 0 hits all the way.
Does anyone know a workaround for the 0 hit bug?

Good concept for event if they wouldn't have put everything in same map and allowed previous bosses to respawn. The clutter obviously caused memory issues. Every single thing that went wrong just pi$$ed me off more though.

1. Having to reinstall everytime game left the temple map. ALOT
2. Killing 4 demon hounds, but only getting credit for 3 and having to kill another.
3. 0 damage hits wasting energy.
4. Killing Guardian Angel and nothing continuing or getting reward. Another reinstall.
5. Killing Guardian Angel AGAIN, hoping the event recognizes it.
6. Hoping this the end of my bug list, and no way I can finish all 40 due to time restraint.

I've had the same problem but used probably about 240 gems only to see the damage undone and monster at full strength. And of course this is such a great event I can't stay away so I trudge through. FINALLY at the last stage only to find out that the Dragon has 10500 health? my poor level 68 health is only 750 and is going to take a while... by my just quick math it looks like I will need 22 full health to kill him since I am doing anywhere from 90-140 damage on the previous dragon? yeah I might have to use more gems to actually finish since time is NOT on my side.

This has been fun, BUT frustrating at the same time... whew! Happy New Year!

Can someone please confirm the last boss has roughly 10,500 hp?

I'm on him now and trying to estimate the number of gems needed to finish him. If the above is correct then I need 75 attacks (I average 140 per hit). I guess it costs around 200 energy (175 for the hit and 25 average damage) per attack. So 15,000 energy or 300 gems less the energy I accumulate in the next 14 hours?

Does this sound about right to the people who have completed this?

I wish they would prolong this event for a day or so. Because of all the hassle, with reinstalling and zero hitters etc. I think I will miss out on the last prize I actually would like very much, the rogue weapon. With 5 hours left, I'm pretty sure I won't make it.

Still, not a bad run without spending gems, spending that money on some new blu-rays :)

Regarding your last paragraph, I had the same problem with Profile inspection when my Best Armor showed up as the Rose Plate Armor (problem disappeared when I received the Steppe Leathers), and I still have that problem when trying to view a rival's Profile when their Best Armor is the Rose Plate. It also freezes and sometimes kicks me out when I'm scrolling through my armor and reach the Rose Plate square.

I'm on an Ipad 1, and luckily didn't have any other crashing problems during the Set Challenge (kept RAM usage minimized), but that armor is still causing me problems. Hopefully it will get fixed at some point...

I have to confess to being more than a little upset and disappointed by the fact that here we are starting another series of events and no word from anyone about what is to be done about the horrible running of the previous event. The amount and gems spent and time lost due to the crashes (be it profile or zone loading) is disheartening to say the least.

You did just as expected. As a free player, everything you got was worth it. You had the options to buy and spend Gems. There was nothing unfair, because you and I had the same choices from the get go.

I was stuck on level 29 (halfway through) left as my energy reloaded and couldnt get back on the map at all.

I tried all the tips and tricks on this forum , nothing worked. i started having bother with crashes from challenge 25 onwards.

so there I was with still 2 days and 20 hours something still on the clock, stuck.

I still cannot get the temple of abbad map open.
