Dear Gameloft.
What have you done to this game... New update made that game even worse, many players are dissatisfied, you have lost many stars in their reviews, they comply for the same things and it keeps piling up in Google Play...
I have three problems to describe.
First of all this update totally breaks Xperia PLAY controls - touchpad acting like a real thumbstick like on PS3 or XBOX 360 controller? Very VERY bad idea, we are barely able to aim, especially in multiplayer mode. We have TOUCHpad not thumbstick,
Second problem is you made the game slower. It started to lose FPS in many places, the whole gameplay is not fluent. The previous version was so beautifully looking and so fluent... Besides, changing graphics in main menu was a total nonsense. Why add bloom, HDR, blur? It runs so slow sometimes I must push the button twice to select some options.
The third problem is your multiplayer mode. It's slow, laggy, glitchy and easy to hack with tools that instantly sets the level to 50 and also there are many hackers with autoaim, god mode... They lasted for the whole match making their team a sure winner. Many players were quitting the matches because what is the fun with being killed more than 30 times by the same person and being unable to kill him?
So my (and many other users of Xperia PLAY phones and also many older phones users) is:
- revert for the previous controls OR at least make the right touchpad aiming "swipe to aim". For example Shadowgun guys made it better - their game had the same controls in the first version of the game - right touchpad acted like real thumbstick. Many people said this game had the worst aiming EVER. After the update they improved the controls, aiming is WAY BETTER.
- make the graphics FASTER, not BETTER. We don't need super ubercharged textures, awesome and jawdropping special effects (EVEN.IN.THE.MAIN.MENU...). We just need a nice shooter game which delivers us awesome experience and fun from playing such advanced and great game on our phones.
- finally improve the multiplayer mode. Make it faster, better, safer and more balanced.
I know the "iUsers" have better support on many games released by your company mainly because of frequent updates. Many people think you just sometimes forget about Android users. We want to play and have full experience and fun too!
Yours faithfully,

What do you think? They surely support Apple devices much better than Android ones, this must end...

I think they still don't understand, and will not. Gameloft is iOS lovers, Android is on 2nd place, always -.-.
PS: Polak potrafi, Romanie .
But i think the swipe to aim on the older version was much worse than the actual version. Thumbsticks work not bad if you get used to it and you cam turn arround much quicker wich is importend in multiplayer...

Yeah I also think the controls are slightly better now, but still not perfect.
As long as Gameloft still have paying customers they won't give a **** whether they're happy or not
I agree.
I dont understand how you could make LEFT thumbstick works as a 8-way controller like arrow keys while on-screen controls work perfectly
RIGHT touchpad is slugish and has some weird latency while on-screen, again, works perfectly.
MC3, first game that forces me to use touchscreeb instead of dedicated controls...
Don't every buy a Gameloft game again. That's the only language they understand. Seriously, people, big companies are not there to serve you, they want you to serve them instead. They're deaf to you.
This is Gameloft. Myself and others notified them of a problem with Shadow Guardian that basically makes it impossible to complete the game probably 6 months ago. They have still not fixed it.
That said regarding MC3, I thought the controls improved with the update.....
Hm. I updated but haven't played the new update yet, so I'll have to check it out first.
The controls are annoying me. The buttons are direct to the other button so that you press sometimes the wrong button

Gameloft isn't competent about handling issues on iOS either.
They make the cheapest product they can make to impress the casual gamer's eye, then do whatever they must to get the most money for it without caring how "good" the product actually is.
ShadowGun released with Xperia PLAY controls FAR worse than SC:Conviction or anything Gameloft ever did... took one dedicated update, and boom!... Shadowgun's controls are on Dead Space's level.
Gameloft's a very big company... bigger than Madfinger. They can be that competent, they just choose to rush products instead. Eternal Legacy was released without the native ability to walk in a straight line on the touch-pad. They've been aware of this for nearly a year now... and done nothing about it.
This is one of the many reasons I love iOS and Apple and Gameloft

I got the same kind of reply about Shadow Guardian.... 4 months ago... they still haven't fixed it.
I was thinking of getting MC3 through the gameloft store (which supports paypal, unlike the android store -.-), but after reading this I think i should just wait for a better update.
Verizon Xperia Play R800x
Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum. I have a few issues and hope to resolve them. I'm a wholesaler of electronic gadgets and other merchandise. I have a bunch approx. 50 Verizon R800x in great working condition, but I have a few questions. I have conflicting report everywhere and trying to get to the bottom of it and figured developers and guys who know about this stuff would be the best to turn to
1. Is there a way to unlock the phones? Apparently the SIM card slot does exist but it's blocked off by a plastic blocker. I've been told it might be as easy as ripping the plastic blocker out, putting in a foreign sim and unlocking it using a PIN? However, from other forums I read that that's not possible.
2. Is there a place on this forum to sell merchandise or am I allowed to advertise the sale of these phones?
Thanks,

Pretty sure the R800x can't physically load foreign SIM cards, since it's CDMA (which doesn't use SIM cards). The hardware is just left over because they didn't want to spend a lot of money changing the specs, but it's not useable
The Marketplace didn't allow professional sellers the last time I checked.
Not terribly interested in the OUYA, but I know there are others that are interested in it. FF3 has been announced as a launch title with updated graphics and what not to take advantage of the Tegra 3 processor in the OUYA.

Saw this, looks pretty good.
Re: Final Fantasy III by Square Enix coming to Ouya.
When I heard that Final Fantasy 3 will be on Ouya, I was so happy. This was the main reason why I pre-ordered an Ouya with two controllers. I am a Final Fantasy fan since a long time and it was great news for me
FFIII?
Y not something like dead trigger?
Or MC3?
Or NOVA 3?

Because those aren't already on Android in HD [/Sarcasm].
I hope that if they optimize it to work with the OUYA's gamepad, we can get an updated version that supports the Xperia Play hardware buttons.
It might just work for ICS cannot see how it would work for Gingerbread without explicit support.
I have bought it but not played it yet due to the lack of controller support.
(If we get secret of mana or chrono trigger that would be good).
Or heaven forbid a new port (Dragon Quest VI maybe).

It also says all the games are free to play (Don't think I would want an adware Final Fantasy III)
I wonder if we'd have to buy it again if we already own it through the Play Store. Or, maybe it will not even be obtained through Google Play...
Just thinking about that Android Doom 3 port being worked on being available for this console!
Other OUYA related news.
EA and DICE in particular were looking foward to bring frostbite 2 engine to mobile platform.
Seeing as Tegra 3 is dominant and powerfull mainstream hardware and also used for OUYA, this may mean some form of ports could be heading to OUYA.
Atleast this would mean way much easier game development for smartphones/OUYA in general.

Nice!! I mean, we're already seeing Unreal on Android.
I have had my note 10.1 since xmas and have left it alone as far as rooting and roms go unlike my Note and Note 2, I have found a good few apps including games which will not work sometimes ones that the market says are compatible with the Note 10.1.
I find it strange that some apps will work on the smaller notes but not the 10.1 is due to it being a tablet design?
Any one else had any issues or has any who has upgraded to JB found that apps that didnt work now do?
I would love to now your thoughs.
I havent found anything incompatible. What are you having issues with?
Touch Detective was the last one i couldnt run?
All my apps work including many from SGS3.
jje
delete - Sorry misread. I'm not on jelly bean
Could someone try out Touch Detective it is free and on play store so i can see wether my issue is device specific?
I can't get Heroes of Order and Chaos for example and a couple more that I don't remember.
I tried to edit the device name in the build.prop but no success...
Edit: Play Store says that my phone (Nexus One) and tablet (8013) are compatible

I think the GS3 international, Note 2 and Note 10.1 have the same GPU Mali 400.
My Nook reader did not work on 4.1.1 but does on 4.1.2, go figure.
Hopefuly when i upgrade to JB tonight it will solve some of my issues with apps.
As bigger screens and tablets become more common hopful JB being the latest os is more big screen friendly.
And yes i have looked into it and the note, note 2 and 10.1 all have Samsungs Exynos processor????
Please guy that igame is wonderful

I do not think its going to happen as the number of arm v6 devices are very low these days. And the performance of armv6 is not that good. And new android phones are very cheap. I think you should just buy a new phone if you are really want to play coc. You can use an emulator on your pc btw.
Supercell team tried to backport it but that didnt work so yeah stop expecting that it will be ported, secondly this game needs to be updated frequently, so it will be damn tough to update ported app time to time, hope you understood
Hi! I wanted to know which is the best Android version, as of today, to be able to play Tegra games (Portal, and so on...)
I remember that, some months ago, the specific Android version had some performance problems and that there was a subsequent, faster Android for Switch, that did not support Tegra games... has the situation changed?
Thanks!
No answer, eh?
