I sometimes cant see some of my buildings in my hood, gotta go to some random map and come back multiple times to get the buildings. Sometimes I don't see all the buildings of rivals as well. I go back to my hood, then back to the rival list / hood multiple times for them to appear. Sometimes my rivals go away from the rival list during this entire process.

Anyone else got the same issue?

Edit: And no, I don't wanna buy henchmen but thanks anyway!

Hmm, I have Android too. A&F if you're reading this, are you guys coming up with a fix for this?

Happens to me too. Except EVERY building will disappear - the only things that are visible is the street/ground layout, my avatar and the indicators that appear when it's time to collect. Like others have said, I go to another hood/map and come back and everything is as it should be...

Try buying an iPhone. Fixed the problem for me.

Not everyone is brave enough to live with the stigma and social ridicule of that last resort.

It appears to be a problem with loading the graphics when the memory is nearly full. For me it's usually followed by the game crashing with an OutOfMemoryError exception the next time I switch hoods.

I'm guessing when the app was first written they didn't expect people to have hoods with so many buildings to load. It would probably be too big (and technical) a task to rewrite it to use the memory efficiently.

How about a graphic pack downgrade? They could market it as a "retro 8bit" graphic pack and charge us money for the pleasure. If it meant the game doesn't crash 75% of times I go to other hoods it might be worth it.

I don't get an out of memory message nor does the game crash when I travel to different hoods. But I've always had this issue.

I got a Galaxy S4, not switching to a iPhone ;)

Problem also happens with me, having 2GB of internal memory I do expect it uses more for gfx memory.
But, it this problem also comes in handy. Because I do still see the defensive missile launchers and such (only buildings disappear). This way I can see where I put them between the buildings :)

Nope checked on both bluestacks and phone. Both showing 0 when I look at syndicate member requests. But otherwise stats are showing up.
