It is not the first time for a game to be having network/crashing issues after receiving a new update. However, the dev team was quick enough to get their game ready for the players in such a short time(at least the game can be accessed now). While some fans are appreciating the efforts while others are demanding compensation in the form of blood points which evidently is provided by the dev team.
