I'm confused by the message you and NorryUK received from BF. 

 I cannot play my games until they are updated.

But isn't that what caused the problem - the latest update on Oct. 4th?

So is there now a new update that is supposedly going to take care of the problem? If there is, I don't have it.

I was wondering the same thing. I don't have another update.

I did not level up to 109 until this current problem is fixed, but I sure am missing playing up!

A friend of mine told me the same thing. She said she held off doing the update after seeing everyone's problems listed in the forum yet today received that same message.

I am under the impression that it is people with higher levels that have problems. I am at level 87 and only lost 4 friends. However the last two days I tried to go into someone's private room who lost their game and it says "This friend's room has been updated in a more recent version of the game. To visit it, please update your game to the latest version". As far as I know I am using the latest version, with

content 1.14.56.2348

client 1.14.56.2345

server Prod 1.14.56.2336

It was determined several years ago that this message your receive when trying to access the Private Room of another player is misleading. Generally the person who receives this message has the latest update. It's the other person - whose Private Room you're trying to access - who doesn't have the latest update.

I hadn't updated my games. I was waiting to see what happened and playing without the update. So when I got message telling me 'This version of the game is out of date. Please install the update.' I assumed it referred to the update from 4th October. I am scared to do it but I've now received a message from Big Fish telling me that they have

"moved your save data over to your new ID for you today, and everything should now be on your new device." 

Makes no sense at all because I haven't got a new device and my game wasn't saved properly! And the only way to check is to download the update. And no mention from BF if the glitch has been fixed.

It makes no sense at all. But isn't that the norm for BF???

I had not done the update at all, i was playing on the older version without mishap.

Today, I could not open the game and BF posted a message saying I had to update to play, so I had no choice but to do so. It did the update and I am yet to find any problem with it.

I don't know what would happen to those who downloaded the corrupt update.

I also haven't done the recent update that messed up so many games.  Here's the screenshot I get when I try to open the game:

I'm still not ready to download it, though.  Too scared.

i was playing the previous version, until i got the same message and had no choice but to run the update.

the only issue i have found is the game doesn't exit properly sometimes and i have to reboot the pc, but this issue was there before the update, so no change really.

you may prefer to wait another week to see if others are free of gremlins with the update.

I am so sorry .  I did not see this until after I sent your gifts today.  I will hold gifts until you let us know it is ok.  I am so sorry that you are having all this trouble.  Actually I'm sorry everyone is having all these problems.  So far my game is running pretty good.  I have a few small issues but nothing major.  I thank God for that.  Hope they can get these issues fixed before the fall event starts.  Good luck to everyone.
