Call of Duty Mobile stuck on loading screen: COD Mobile not working and update latest

Call of Duty Mobile is reportedly stuck on the loading screen for gamers who have downloaded the new app today.

Reports are coming in of problems playing Call of Duty Mobile on Android and iOS.

Initial issues included Android users being unable to download the game, the same problem not hitting iOS gamers.

But now it appears that a new problem has hit the massive launch of the new Call of Duty game.

According to fans trying to log in and play, they get stuck on the Call of Duty Mobile Loading Screen.

It’s unclear what might be causing issues tonight or how long they might last.

It would be fair to say that being a popular new Call of Duty game, there could be a lot of server strain going on.

No technical advice has been shared on the COD Mobile platforms yet, so hopefully, issues won’t last a long time.

One user reports: “Sometimes it lets you log in other times it gets stuck. Sometimes have to reload 30 times to get it to login. Definitely has to be servers. If you get logged in just don’t log out.

Another adds: “Mine says preparing update and keeps repeating that; chill out guys this happens. jJust wait a few hours and try again.”

Call of Duty Mobile launched earlier today so it makes sense that there could be some issues over the next 48hrs.

A mass increase in players logging on during evening time in Europe could be enough to cause login problems for fans.

It’s expected that more information will be shared by the COD Mobile team if these issues continue tonight.

Here’s some advice on if the game crashes from the Activision FAQ site:

How to play Call Of Duty: Mobile on PC

Call of Duty: Mobile launched a couple of days ago, and while a lot of people seem to be into it, not everyone has a smartphone capable of playing graphics-heavy games. If you’re one of those people who own a device that can’t game but still want to play COD: Mobile with your friends, then this guide is for you! Tencent, the co-developer of the game released an official PC emulator for COD: Mobile. Check it out!

Step 1

First, you’d want to download the emulator itself. You can find it here. Install the file once it’s finished downloading.

Step 2

From there, find and install COD: Mobile on the Game Center tab.

Step 3

If you initially logged in via Facebook and want to keep your progress, then you’re going to need to download the Facebook Lite app and login there as well. Otherwise, you won’t be able to login to your COD: Mobile account. You can find Facebook Lite in the Game Center as well just search for “Facebook.”.

Step 4

Before running the game, open up the settings on GameLoop. You can find it in the three lines icon on the upper right side of the GameLoop app.

From there go to the Engine tab. Depending on the specs of your PC, adjust these settings. The important thing to take note is the Memory – which is the RAM your “phone” or the emulator has, and Processor (make sure you set this below what your has). If you have multiple Playback and Recording devices, then make sure you set the ones your currently using. For the first five rendering options, I just left it as is.

Step 5

Now you can finally start the game! Head over to the main menu, then go to the My Games tab and hit play.

From here you should see Call of Duty. Hit play and a separate window for the game should pop up. Once you reach this screen, log in using your preferred method; I only tested with FaceBook because that’s where my account is linked, but others should work fine too. The controls are all on the right side so learning them shouldn’t be much of a challenge. One thing is that the left Ctrl key is used to free up the mouse cursor which is useful for the BR mode when looting. But, if you’re a long-time PC FPS gamer, then you know that the left Ctrl key is typically for ducking. Just keep that in mind because I’ve died quite a few times for hitting the Ctrl key and then not being able to aim.

Step 6

The only thing left to do is start playing the game! See you guys out there!
