Let's all try to be civil in here please.
To recap the situation: with this 1.4.0 update, Android users (me too!) are being affected by a game crashing bug that makes it impossible to play any fights. This is obviously bad.
However, please try to be calm about this. It sucks! We can't play! However "play" is the key word here. This is not the end of the world. I'm an absolute maniac when it comes to Skullgirls story and lore, so not being able to play the new story chapter is killing me. However, I know there's nothing I can do about it, so getting all riled up about lost investments and time = money equations (?!) is not going to help me.
The devs are obviously working on this problem. When basically half of the player base is suddenly not able to play their game it's not something Hidden Variable are going to take lightly. Sit back, take a breather and the devs will fix it.
