I just updated again and tested. I fase same problem again.(wich I didn't mention last time) Game is gettin extremely laggy. It's like watching slide show. I tried to clear ram before playing and tested connection. It was ok. Is there something more I can do? I'm using Galaxy S2.

Edit. I removed all the details and even engine sounds but it had no effect.

@manfred the delay when you get the list of pilots is because i try to clean up the memory of your phone. I'm hoping that small time spent cleaning up the memory stops/helps with your samsung crashes. If it didn't, let me know.

Hangars: yeah not everybody has the update yet, it should allow to bomb only 2 hangars at once if you hit them right. As onsekone pointed out, you still require the same amount of bombs that before but you just don't drop them ramdonly, you have to aim more carefully.

Windows 8, Windows Phone 8: the update is sent but it is not published yet (like apple), so nobody has the fixes on those yet. As soon as it's out, i will enforce the update.


That was Zandor with the list delay - mine pops up right away, but that's probably because the cleanup takes little time with my smokin' hot processor! However, Both S3 and S4 still quit the game. Thanks for trying though!

I didn't see the Select issue on my s3 or s4, strange.

Thanks Z!

Today's revision corrects the server lock-out.

In case I wasn't clear, I like the new hangars and don't mind the necessary change in strategy. I'll keep trying to hit two with one bomb!

Lag must be the most frustrating thing to try to fix. It can be attributed to any link in the chain; your own connection strength, the connections of the people in the mission with you, server traffic, the quality of drugs you're on, whether you're taller than Chuck E. Cheese's cane, the whim of a cruel god. It isn't exclusive to Dogfight, if the game is lagging I just swear at the nearest Win 8 user and move on.

Generally speaking, Joaquin, DF looks and plays better than it ever has. Well done.

Now then... wtf is the deal with those carrier elevators?! It's like trying to land and take off from a miniature golf course! ;)

Wiggums, I was able to hit two hangars today (nyah nyah). Still trying for three! Lol I had the same thought about the miniature golf course. Still haven't figured out if bullets pass through the elevator platforms -- if they do, then there is a *distinct* new advantage on the attacking plane's side to riddle the basement squatters with lead.

Zup, there is still a weird action where you respawn on a carrier and start rolling backward. Before this release, throttling up immediately would save you from falling off the stern (brakes have no effect on this rolling). However, with the new release, there is the distinct possibility that you'll fall into an empty elevator shaft *just* because of the spawn/roll error.

Thanks,
Manfred

Wig, I don't think its drugs. The lag is not beautiful like usually...

Worst lag has been in zeppelin games. I couldn't even hit the zep. I was instead spraying bullets all over the place.

Then there are those hangars... Lag is worst close to them. At end of the game when theres less hangars theres also less lag.

Seams like the higher ranks planes move and turn slower. Still some lag, gets worse when in a group. Tank fire pauses the game for a second. Keep getting an error connecting report every time I try to switch sides or maps. I have to close out the game and restart it to go to another, map. And the one hit kills.

Thanks

And yes, Joaquin, the server connection lock-out problem is still occurring. Not quite as consistently as before the update revision, but close.

I'm sorry to interrupt but...

The zep on practice mission 7 is now visible but it is also bullet proof. Engines go smoking easily but you can shoot the zep all day and not brake it.

The Windows players need to be forced to update.

Seems there is little point in having a windows Phantom fix it it's optional.

Not sure what is going on,
Xuiyu or what ever his name is said he updated yesterday.

Is it out yet or not?

If not, how did X update?
If it is, how is OD2 playing without it.

Just asking.

Good question! Update might be out and Z hasn't enforced it? Give it a few days. :whistle: I'm not sure does Windows 8 just have one store?

I feel bad for You,Manfred and all with the quit bug. That one issue probably has taken up so much of Joaquin's time :unsure: . I get it sporadically with my Ipad 2. I can't imagine it happening all the time.

. Wigbomb wrote: My experience with the new hangars has been the same as Manfred's; one bomb, one hangar. I was even in that mission with Onsekone and have no idea how it worked, I've tried every bombing angle, placement and approach there is and can only hit one at a time. It does demand a shift in strategy; hitting from a tank is now much more viable than punching through eight times to get eight hangars. It isn't necessarily a bad thing, just different. I actually find BTB games to be about the same length as before but with a greater emphasis on tanking. I can see Manfred's point about players being more inclined to dump their bombs knowing the payoff is only one eighth of the way to a victory and a measly fifty points.


Regardless of how I approach the hangars, what altitude I'm at, where I drop the bombs -- even exactly halfway between them -- I can get only one per bomb. So I'm pretty much giving up bombing. Just not worth the hassle and aggravation when everyone else is dropping at takeoff.

Despite what appeared to be an improvement after the update-to-the-update, the server access problem is still present. If I try more than once to get onto, say, Messines, I'm blocked from it and whichever of the other two I try next. I might luck into a connection to one but with the other two I get error messages. There's no pattern to which one will work and which two won't (and often all three won't) ... when I finally get into a game it's on a different one each time. As was the case before, failing to get in means having to close out the app, clear the cache and start again by launching the game.

I get the server issue as well. Not a lot but maybe once every 10 games.

Biggest issue is the lag. Almost unplayable. Would not recommend this update and I believe it is update related.

Also, first attempt at bombing hangars I got 3. This was on the wooded ones (south). Dropped between two outside corner on ground (not on the hangar). For now I'm 100%

I've been in multiple matches where three hangers have been bombed by others but the most I have hit is two. Now this could be by people who hadn't updated yet Idk... I like the new hangers and the new tactics they come with :) makes tank shelling real easy.

Man very strange,
The added languages, recunstruction of hangers and windows 8;

I think its troubling difficult to keep up with an assortment of devices but wow.

If you enter 1 game and leave you cant enters otheres withought restarting the app, sometimes i have to restart my device.
This morning i entered a game but i could see who else was in by flying in and around them, the pop up board only showed there rank but no names listed. Lagg is extremly challenging as well. And turning, well its like viewing a slide show but dont wiggle your screen to much or you'll recieve some scoring eyes.....

ZUP,, Get some rest guy before working on any of these challenegs.. sleep eat fix... and whos got my twinkies im hungry....
