I know I'm a miserable douche at times but seriously...on android I can continue to attack in melee and become immune to everything why the game is paused....

I'm NOT pretty ok with people calling out our VOLUNTEER beta testers as doing a poor job or otherwise. While I'm not a community rep and not issuing you some kind of formal warning, I AM going to ask that if you have a beef with the way something was tested that you limit comments on that to the QA team (myself included) and NOT our beta testers.
They did a HELL of a job for us this time around and deserve nothing but praise.
If you have a bug to report, please by all means either report it or give me some repro steps so we can get it reported and in the system.
What you're hinting at sounds like a very specific timing problem to me...can you reproduce it consistently and without split second timing?
@Illydth sorry I found a bug no one else seemed to the moment I woke up in the morgue what makes all the battles redundant....
I was more referring to tone than I was content.
We're more than happy to take bug reports from anyone and everyone. They help, they're constructive and it's awesome that our customers take the time and opportunity to communicate issues to us that we can help make better in the future.
If you feel I was being unprofessional in my prior comment I'll give you an apology for that.
However I will not apologize for asking our OP to keep comments / complaints about testing directed at the QA staff and not at our volunteer beta testers who put their free time and their hearts and souls into testing our software for us for not much more than a "thanks" at the end of the day.
Edit: I've "toned down" my prior comment. I fully get where it looked harsher than it was intended.
Can I ask you to elaborate on how you've seen this happen or how it can be reproduced? Are you suggesting that if you are in combat and simply pause the game at ANY point you will continue to attack while you cannot be attacked back?
Is there a specific condition whereby this occurs or is this just a general occurance?
I think you noted Android as the platform?
Is there anything else to add that might assist us in reproducing the issue?
Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
With Infinity Engine, there can never be enough testing, really. There have been a long period of beta, where several hundreds of bugs have been reported and fixed, not even taking about improving game features.
When report bugs, please, concentrate on the bugs themselves, not other testers.
@JuliusBorisov I know I'm a bit of a dick but I can't see how something like that managed to slip through.
On my non rooted nexus tablet with custom kernel it also happened so I know it's not local and that it's the actual game itself.
Edit..nothing to do with imported saves/files as both clean installs.
It is still possible to issue commands to your character like any other real-time-with-pause cRPG, but fighting while paused is something I've never encountered on iOS.
The mystery deepens...
@Shandyr I'm currently in the process of working it out. I've created mods for multiple games on different engines to just assume I know nothing is the same as me assuming the beta testers know nothing. Pot calling the kettle black. So keep it on topic if your going to post anything.
So far I've worked out who it mainly effects. The area it happens most and managed to recreate it 6 out of 10 tries s. Also a change into the pause screen when it actually happens is a give away when it does happen.
Need better beta testing != beta testers suck. Could also mean need they should have had more time. Or there should have been more of them. Or there should have been more professional paid testers to help them. Or they should have been given a wider variety of hard ware to use.
Personally my two first experiences with the enhanced editions was the blurry screen bug and noticing that the candlekeep identify scroll quest was broken (there was quite some time in between those two). Things do seem to have improved by then!
@elminster no auto pause settings, no Options changed was a fresh install no mods, stock android OS, no emulation software installed. Everything was stock.
