Yeah that makes complete sense The whole game depends on what happens in the last eight seconds, no matter how badly you were beating their ass for the past like 52 seconds.
So then the game becomes less about cutting fruit, getting combos, and going for the white fruit, and more about getting the right timing with the rubberbanding to carry you through to the end. I think it can be better than that.
Ok guys, we understand your position at this point. We'll be updating and working with Game Center from now on, so you can expect all kinds of additions and tweaks in the coming weeks/months. Understand this was our first pass at Game Center and thankfully it was a big success, but we are always looking at ways to improve.
Was a good first foray, congrats; excited for what's next. I think I speak for everyone here when I say we love your game, we wouldn't be here voicing our 'constructive criticism' if we didn't, and hope it continues to evolve and be successful for a long time yet.
Oh yes, don't get me wrong, I think this is a great implementation of multiplayer overall. Just a few game play quirks. Otherwise you really captured the pick-up-and-play just-one-more-time feel in an online multiplayer setting.
FN is an absolutely great game (really, it takes me back to the glory days of videogaming in the late 70's/early 80's when it was all about "just one more try") and the multiplayer has magnificent potential...but the rubberbanding really needs to go, or at least be adjusted to be far less obvious.
I went -18 and still ended up winning after trying at the very end. Tried this multiple times and won. Terrible how you can beat someone so bad or lose and they catch up in no time at all...
guys, why so optimistic? there is no indication in developers posts that rubber banding will be off or slowed down to the point of not being annoying.
If you go back a few more pages they say they will tweak it, I suggest you search fully before going against what others have said.
i suggest you read that post also, few pages back. it does not sound like it will be off or very small.
so i wrote they are not going to tweak it "a bit" or i said this? please don't put words in my mouth or twist what I've said.
Hey I don't know what's wrong, but my Fruit Ninja doesn't have the HD icon with the smaller OF logo. This is on my 4the gen touch, and I know it should be working because my friend has it on his exact same model and I have updated... EDIT: nvm, a resync seems to have fixed it
