missions don't load - Negan's SMG appears to be the cause

I can load the game, chat in group chat, port to flares and click on crates etc.
However, when I go to try a mission the game gets stuck on loading screen.
I have restarted phone, switched from wifi to data on cell, re-installed game etc. 
Nothing seems to fix.  Has anybody else experienced this?

Sometimes after restarting the app it will work for a mission or two then go back to the same loading screen.

Thx

    Trying to use Negan's SMG in missions causes the game to freeze. The mission will never load but will still cost you energy. Happens to many players in my team and in other teams as well. Everyone I asked so far is an Android user, so I don't know if this is only an Android specific bug.

    If you open the Negan SMG card, it only shows the background and leaves you there,

    Try not using Negans SMG, seems to be that weapon that's causing the problems

    Negan's SMG is my go to normally, but the current board is mostly shotgun related so i have been using the rare Jackhammer Shotgun when the issues started for me.
    I am waiting for a response from support as well; just wasnt sure if there were other ways to troubleshoot it from my end.

    You might be right, I was crashing/getting hung up on raider bases which i would have switched to Negan's SMG on. I tried a couple of other missions and they worked fine; tried the SMG and it froze up.

    Too bad I just leveled it up this morning lol....

    Okay, so my husband was using the negan's SMG, he changed it and the game fully loaded and he could play the game normally...
    Hope it's just a glitch then....

    I just tested this again, used a blue weapon on a rescue mission.
    mission started fine, retreated.  did same mission w Negan's SMG and it froze up.

    This has got to be the issue.

    Thx for help guys.
    It does suck stunting the groups progress now; but sounds like we are lucky given some of the other issues that are circulating.

    Having the same issue. Restarted and reinstalled game. I can spend money in the shop, drop off survivors, roam, place flares and pick up supply crates, but I can't do any missions. I just get a loading screen with 3 dots. It was working for about 30 minutes and then stopped again.
