    See I've always found Gameloft's controls to be very awkward, especially the sprint button location. I've had no issues with the controls on Strike Team, I'd go as far to say I find them superior to anything Gameloft offer as stock on Modern Combat.

    You'll probably want to go through this thread to answer you questions but since I got some time I'll give you some simple feedback.

    The controls are similar but not exactly the same. Personally I really like them but if you customized your controls on MC this might be hard to adjust to.

    There's only online challenge / score comparing but you can't play with anyone. If you're looking for solid and unique single player FPS/strategy this is your game. If you were looking for a MC killer this may not be it. Though personally I like this a lot better than MC, just the way it plays feels smoother(Funny that MC actually runs smoother as a game on my ipod than this ).

    Does anyone know if this game is sold "complete" or are there any plans to add more content later. By that I mean when you finish the game does it end (no spoilers please)?

    Deus Ex has an area in the menu for more content with "Coming Soon"'but I don't see anything similar for Strike Team. Just wondered with some of the posts saying it's very short, and I hope the areas on the globe at the menu aren't the only locations in the game, do more open up as you get further?

    Ahhh ok. Sorry if I sound obnoxious but I just want to make there was no confusion, but when I was talking about my quickscoping technique I was referring to the little circle ADS button, not the arrows. I think you know that and u just mentioned the arrows as a side note, but just making sure

    Be prepared for competition:).
    The challenges are actually only something i just started playing but I'm really enjoying them because the guys on my list from the add me thread and here are really putting the effort in to top the list which is quite a challenge.

    I made it no 1 a few times already and I keep getting knocked off by being bettered. Which is great really as I love a challenge and there are some very impressive scores up there on the campaign and challenges side.
    The requirements in the game itself to achieve a challenge is pretty easy but beating some of the players on here certainly is not. Keep at it guys.
    Its a handy little earner as well. Not terribly high but well worth it

    Wait, is the only way to get the last guns by buying the care package? Or can you get them after prestiging?

    Sure, but you can move all of those buttons around in Gameloft's games, which you can't here. I always have the sprint button above the v-stick on the left and the crouch below the v-stick, and everything else on the right. Worked well for me.

    I actually just figured out that you can double-tap on the right to bring up the iron sights, and the game's much more fun now, haha.

    Righto, what's going on with these Challenges?

    Tapped on one, it changes to 30 minutes remaining (it's the one to get x-amount of kills in 30 mins) but how do I move into the game itself? The timer in the box ticks down (now says 25 mins remaining or I can tap it again to stop).

    What am I missing? lol :eek:

    You need to go start a game haha. Challenges can be done in the campaign level, survival map of your choice. So after starting the challenge just go back to the globe and pick. Also, you can do half the challenge in a campaign level then finish it on a survival map.

    I can get to like round 14 on Survival.

    What are you guys picking for perks? I feel like I should be doing better.

    I'm using bandolier, faster health regen, and sleight of hand.

    Ahhhh! lol

    So you do the challenges whilst in the actual campaign mode. Got it.

    I thought it was a separate map per challenge that was loaded. :eek:

    Cheers.

    Oh I see. Thanks a lot for your reply, I appreciate it. :)

    I think I'll hold off for a sale and buy those apps on my wishlist.

    No multiplayer and awful controls, well at least it takes a lot of time to get used to them. Aim is under a floating joystick. Aim on left side and floating joystick may sound bad and its exactly that and even worse. It also has aim assist and you cant take it off...

    Conclusion: Wait for sale or just move on altogether. Nothing to see here.

    For a member of the "Spam Post" you sure just posted a lot of it ...

    Controls are fine, if it took you a lot of time to get used to them then that's your problem and not the game. If my wife can pick up the game and get unassisted head shots with the sniper rifle or run 'n' gun while changing weapons mid gun fight then I'm sure you can pick them up too since you're an experienced mobile gamer? No?

    Try giving constructive criticism rather than a rant. I used to post utter crap on here and I'm now more interested in getting involved and helping people. Your mini "review" doesn't really help anyone and sounds like a rant after spending five minutes playing the game. Not having a go, I just feel you've been extremely harsh because of your own expectations of the game, and you won't be the last.

    Anyone feel like the textures are really bad? They feel like GTA3 to me.
