Overall slowness on game/track map
For me the entire in-game track map + normal/frostpocalypse tab + Donkey LB is all VERY VERY SLOW.....it was bad before but its getting very close to unusable now with all the added Frostpocalypse features. When I first enter the track map.... its simply gone (everything stops moving) for 15-20 seconds. Once thats over, I get smaller slowdowns/stoppages when I do almost anything at all... moving the map around, going to look at track leaderboards, etc.
As I move from track to track checking the track donkey LB and making my runs.... its like I spend half my time waiting! Uggh!
Anybody else experiencing this?
Weird Track Donkey LB/Ghost issue
Okay, maybe I am insane, but this has happened to me many times already.....
1) I make my Donkey run and put myself on the LB (I race against a top 10 guy; usually play until I beat him).
2) I then either play the ghost of the next guy above me, or play the #1 ghost..... I often lose (duh) but it tells me I have a new record even when I am significantly behind the ghost.
2a) The LB popup comes up, and I watch myself move up 3-4 ranks on the track! And yes, I have much better times now. . . .
One possibility is that I am choosing a ghost but I am really playing another persons ghost who is ranked higher..... but I do good enough to get a better score. That wuodlnt be TOO bad.... Or maybe I am playing ghost from the "real" track leaderboard (because in the end all they do is just play a recording using whatever bike/outfit/positions they choose). I dunno.
But even better... I've done this WITH MY OWN GHOST! Supposedly the one I just added for the very first time. And... its like it really wasnt the ghost I just made....
Anybody else see something odd like this?
The world map has been like this for me since pretty much the original Bunker update, and I think it might have to do with my large friend list. It's either that or the large amount of tracks now available. I will say, it is sometimes better depending on my internet connection (3G/4G/WiFi) but it's still there.
As for the Donkey, I haven't gotten it yet. I am gonna wait til I reach legends to get as many as I can through showdowns and then probably just gem-buy the rest. I have enough gems by threefold, but I love saving them for some reason.
Okay, here is one case where its very obvious I did not play the right ghost....but thankfully the LB times were all valid.
Its Planks and Mozzies, on my first attempt... pick and beat opponent to get on the LB:

Pick the next higher opponent and beat their ghost big-time... but it really wasnt their ghost?

Whoevers ghost I did beat.... had a track time of 21.403 based on my win-screen... but there is NOBODY on that LB with that time....

Hmm I have no problems whatsoever with game/track map + normal/frostpocalypse tab. Everything is normal on my side. Can't say much about Donkey since I haven't obtained it yet.
If it helps, I'm using IPhone 5S.
EDIT: For the sandbox ID, I did get it once when I beat my personal best on one of the tracks, and then the reel suddenly shows all sandbox ID. Try restarting the game. I did that and it was back to normal.
Oh, and something ELSE weird.... on the Planks and Mozzies normal track LB... what the heck is "[Sandbox ID]" and why are there so many of them?
I've raced a couple of their ghosts and they are unique....

I had this problem (and still have) with old version as well. And the 'large' number of friends causing it. Before I had 1000 friends, and it was just unbearable. Now I have 200 - bearable, but it's only 200..Originally Posted by iviarkD Go to original post
