oh my god guys.... DUKE 3D UPDATE IS OUT!! I can't believe it finally made it. I'm dling now will report on the updated controls.
The game is now completely playable.. although the controls still aren't as good at MC: Sandstorm's... I'm still relieved that I can finally start this awesome game.
Is it just me or are the controls still broken? I barely notice an improvement. And yes I've toggled with the controls.
Ughh! I thought this was going to be resolved because the mic is unnecessary and holding me back from playing!
People are mistaken in thinking that this update changes the controls all that much (they were actually pretty good before the update). The only thing wrong with the controls per se before was that it would 'stick' as if you were still pressing a direction when you weren't, and you couldn't 'slide through' the analogue stick. These bug have been corrected, as well as analogue being implemented so you can walk.
The info in the app store description is contradictory in terms of compatibility with 1st Gen Touch. Under What's New In This Version it says "Supports iPod Touch 1 and 2 with 2.2 OS and higher." But under Requirements it says "Compatible with iPhone and iPod Touch (2nd Generation.)" It would be nice if they clarified it, so that people won't make the mistake of buying it if it really isn't compatible...
I got the update and still find the controls frustrating! I push the stick to the left and Duke looks left then move my finger to look to the right and Duke keeps on spinning to the left. Please implement a control scheme like the ones used in Wolf 3d or Sandstorm
The game doesn't sync with my 1st gen Touch either... Wrong description in the appstore!! This is becoming ridiculous: How long am I gonna wait till I can finally play this game I bought when it came out?!
No update if purchased with a german acc... oihegLKHKOHGAOhfoaugosiaugipohaiohksghioaszgOGISOIHGahokhgoiahioxohvh!!!!! 3 bucks wasted ...
wow the controls are still awful. if your finger slips just barley over the circle, you don't turn. why can't it be like wolf or MC:S? i have no problem with those analogs. the game goes slo-mo when there are multiple enemies it keeps pausing by itself for some reason i can't find an option to turn off that "recentering"... is there one?
I was really excited and now im not, wolf3d and Modern Combat play INFINITELY better than this, and Modern combat eclipses it in terms of technology so really there is no excuse for the developer. JUST COPY one of them! make open doors automatic and be done with that extra button. (accelerometer turning or strafing would be great too as an option)
