Yes there was a change. When I tried to go into tge store it just buffered. I didn't even get an error message. I left it for about 5 mins before closing it. I am logged in through facbook.
I am not sure if it makes a difference. But would would my county I am in (Bermuda) make me unable to make purchases? I have never had that issue before with other games. But I just trying to think of every possible reason.
Yes, I am able to access play store on its own and make purchases. I was on wifi but switched to data after it didn't work. It still did not work. I usually just use wifi. It is a very strong connection.
