This game is unplayable last day or so on android. Crashes, lag, full of glitches like not being able to swipe across the screen properly, moving my screen to the sky, etc. Its horrible. And Gameloft needs to fix the recon class. Won't let me sprint. Just like every other modern combat, it has issues only this time there is more. Forget the nerfs. Just make this damn game playable. You can't just treat this like freemium models where its like whatever its free so it is OK for the game to run like crap.
I'm completely stuck on Chapter 4: Carnevale II: 03. Revelation, the one where you are being chased by boats and a chopper. Usually one of the first two boats kills me just seconds after starting the level, because it's almost impossible to hit the tiny enemies when you and the other boats are all swerving around like crazy. The rare times I do make it past the first two boats, I'm gunned down about a minute later. It's really frustrating because before that, every level was pretty easy. Can anyone provide some tips for this level? I've already tried autoaim and autofire...
was it running better before the last couple of days? If so then its your device, they haven't actually changed anything in game. Try a hard reboot, or reinstalling the game.
Some of the lag teleporting and crashes could be just terrible network code. Dunno, not a Dev really just guessing here. Anyway, updates are sorely needed asap.
My MC5 works perfectly and I have no problems with Internet. I'm using an iphone 5 and it runs the game very smooth without lag. Feel sorry for people having trouble with this game.
Wait till you get to the spec ops breach mission. I am ready to delete this as I just can't get past it.
Honestly this game has some weird difficulty spikes. The sniper mission in the same Chapter where you have to defend the two folks is like this as well. They seem to be immediately killed most of the time with random attempts of the mission they seem to be able to take massive damage. The consistency is kind of the issue. My advice is to turn off auto fire as it makes the gun shake on the screen making it harder to see and aim. The easiest way to beat this one is to shoot the dudes and not the boats. Kills the dudes on the boat counts for the headshot challenge (if it is the mission I'm thinking of) and if you kill the shooters, the boat won't do any more damage to you even if it keeps coming. It also counts as a destroyed vehicle for the other challenge which is a little strange.
Why is this game so laggy? The first few minutes when I start a match it's fine, but as soon as I get into the action it becomes laggy which both takes away from the game play experience and makes me suck at it. Anything I can do to make my Ipad Air run faster?
It's poor optimization. No device that has been released in the last year or this year should run this game poorly. Hopefully Gameloft is working on a fix for Android & iOS.
I just ran into someone with a Heavy Machinerocketlauncher for the first time. Serously though, isn't the whole point of always online to prevent hacks BEFORE they happen (Stop hackers before they get into the game)? This is just the same as it was in previous games, except that we can't play the singleplayer offline! Edit: Ran into another one. Edit 2: Aaaaand one more. Edit 3: 3 hackers? Sorry, I meant 4.
I think the point of the always online is to prevent piracy more so than to prevent actual hacking as evident by their pre-release fiasco and Gameloft's PR guys post about in app purchasing software being enabled on Jailbroken user's phone in terms of trouble shooting the game not working. Same with the obvious Spider-Man 2 stuff. That game was obviously always online to detect people giving themselves free IAP more than protecting the leaderboards. Same can be said for Asphalt 8 as well. I'm sure it is probably easier to detect hacking after the fact with the always online but it definitely doesn't stop it. Sadly I've seen a few of these in effect and it just is kind of a shame since it does ruin the experience. There will always be hackers and cheaters but you would think that with all the extra development time and the sparse multiplayer content that the devs would have been able to at least hold off the hackers for a few days. I was seeing this crap on Friday night.
How hard would it be to have the servers check how many rockets a player shoots per life and per second and immediately ban them if they shoot impossible ammounts of rockets in an impossibly short time?
Sucks to see so many people having problems with the game. My first gen mini has showed no problems at all.
Ryan said on his Twitter they are working on the hack which provides unlimited ammo without having to reload. The anti cheat system affected many legit players as of yet. If you're playing to-good-to-be-true, you will be temporarily disconnected from their servers. Btw, the anti-piracy check is bypassed as well so I guess the guys over at GL have some serious work to do right now.
This is again a proof that anti-piracy just cripples the game for legit users and doesn't prevent pirates/hackers from doing what they do...
Unbalanced tier system for guns and upgrades for them and for the classes, controls not as good as in previous MC games, very meh single player campaign, only four maps for multiplayer at release (and none of them really good), serious framerate drops on multiplayer and some of the single player levels on most/all of the supported devices, always-online and hackers. And yet some people still want to defend this mess?
Im playing on the 4S and it's not lagging in MP like in MC4. It's really good. I suggest you to download phoneclean. It's a program, that will delete all unnecessary files and, according to them, makes the phone faster. I gained 600 Mb and my 4S plays Asphalt 8 a little bit better, (more fps)
