Confirmed Stuck on 'Opponents are moving'

[Triumph Jordi]

Hi Hl0k, thanks for reaching out. It appears that the AI behavior that was causing the hang no longer occurs when loading your save on our upcoming Update. So it appears to be fixed.

I just want to add that this bug should be moved to high-priority. My friend group is becoming reluctant to play with me because this bug has happened during our multiplayer games four times in a row. It is extremely demoralizing, and I hope this bug is a top priority right now.

Let me explain the "Opponents are Moving" Bug a bit. This is not a single bug with a singular solution. When the AI runs into behavior that it can't resolve it tends to loop or hang, as a player you only see "Opponents are Moving" which is where the name comes from. There's tons of reasons why the AI might enter such a state which need to be resolved on their own.

We can fix what gets reported but these will keep appearing throughout development.

It's 2025. This has not been fixed. Post-giants update and on a game prior to this, still experiencing this issue. Completely crashes/ruins games. Luckily I was only 12 turns into this campaign.

As explained before, this is not a issue that has a singular fix. This issue will always exist in some manner as it's simply the result of all of the AI actions taken during the game. If you have these issues always report them here on the forums with your save and we will take a look. The vast majority of these we can fix and have apply retroactively so your sessions will be able to continue.

This is a BS answer. This happens on every single game I start. It is unreasonable of you to expect people to pause their game to send you a crash report, to continue playing the game we just spent potentially upwards of $100 each.

Fix the issue.

Please do not Spam in random threads and watch your tone. It is understandable that you are frustrated but none of this is going to bring you to a solution.

I apologize for my tone. But when someone basically steals $100 from me, I get a bit upset.

It is fine to be upset, and while you may feel like your money has been stolen that is also not the case. You have a crash, not a hang as this report is about, that can occur from a variety of things. This is a game that is in active development, we released our newest DLC earlier this month so it's natural that some issues may exist that we're still tackling.

Now if you want I can try to retrieve your information, but my ability to do so depends on the platform. Are you on PC or on Console? If you are on PC could you provide us with the Crash Report Name? If you are not on PC can you tell us what kind of Realm you were playing? And what were the immediate actions that took place before the crash?
