Surge in data usage!

[Badvock]

I have wifi at home, but works, well it just doesn't. Also, I play the most when I'm at work, less kids demanding my attention Just have to hide in the toilet a lot. Apparently I have a bowl disorder

I swapped over to Magic Jack, Only $1.99 a month. THEY HAVE GREAT SERVICE FOR ONLY $1.99 A MONTH!!!!!!!!!!

only 1mb a min? iOS? Besides the 10 minute test I mentioned previously, I first did a cash collect, raid one map target for single hit and posted comment, turned off cellular and checked and had used either 30 or 50mb in 1.5 minutes. Did the same thing with my 5S and had 10mb in one minute.

Would really like a mod or developer to chime in here...as well as respond to my ticket.

Me too,

Please reply to this thread so we know what's going on and can stop assuming. It's costing a lot of us extra money each month in surprised data overages which is frustrating. For future reference it would of been reasonable to let us know of these changes ahead of time. It would of only required 5mins of your time to post a message.
It would also be very helpful to know what we should try to avoid doing thats more data intensive while having to play on our cellulars 3g & 4g network.

Thank you very much.

I'm suprised that more of you don't have wifi at work or home.

Home yes, work, no. Security.

progress. My ticket, which was originally closed right away, 'has been escalated to a Modern War specialist.' Well....who in hades was looking at it in the first place? At least not automatically closed again.

do you really want to know?

A new record! Cash collect, hit 1 map target twice ( dang, just realized I didn't vault the cash). Stop watch said 57 seconds from start to finish....12.9 mb used!

12.9mb, Wow! Glad I'm not the only one, i maxed my data use in 13 days. I originally blamed my carrier and thought they changed the data plan.

Whoa - that is a LOT of data, and I'm not immediately aware of any changes that we'd expect to bump data usage up. We're going to check this out.

Thank you Jerie. I and my over data fees appreciate this. Please let us know as soon as you can as we are having to deactivate and activate cellular to use our devices...which isn't very user friendly.

Thx Jerle. Appreciate you looking into this.

This is getting insane. I used a gig of data in the last 7 days just on mw. Honestly this is a much bigger issue than hackers. Hope it gets addressed immediately.

My data plan just reset on the 25th and I've already used 2.7gigs!! Wtf. If this doesn't get fixed ASAP I'm done with this game, as I won't be able to afford it. I don't have wifi as I travel a lot so cellular was the only way to play. I've played for well over two years and have never had an issue.

[SirOMalley XHH]

Noticed roughly the same usage as last user that posted (own). Have played 2+ years without a problem. However with ridiculous energy requirements, more event than ever, no breaks in the action it seems as though the data usage could be the last straw for me. Gree's lack of self-awareness is astounding

I ran a check today (through data log) and the MW app uses 1mb every 2-3 secs.

Any update Jerle.
