I think there's a miscommunication Porkfinger.
I was talking about the nature of the keyboard arrow keys, Zebra just happened to be how this came up. I was never saying you or anyone said Zebra is good only because of X things. I pointed out I feel just like Davy does in being constantly outmaneuvered even by planes that shouldn't be able all to the time, and I'm playing with arrow keys as well. Also noting the feeling that my planes are maneuvering more sluggish recently.

I said I never used a apple device with this, I've only used a tablet with tilt control. If apple devices are worse then the PC keyboard then I really hope they fix that for you all soon :(

I'm sorry Wings, I was typing fast and furious to get out the door and pick up Mrs Pork, and now I see my words seemed a bit harsh. Please forgive how my last post came across, I didn't mean it that way. Zebra Up has become a buddy of mine in the real world and I was just afraid of how he might interpret your post. I overreacted a bit back there.
Can we go back to poking fun at Davy? :P




SANITY IS HIGHLY OVERRATED....

No problem Porkfinger. I understood you were just clearing things up, I didn't take it as being harsh.

I just uninstalled then reinstalled Dogfight on my PC. I did this as part of helping someone with the PC squadron banner bug. I bring this up because now It feels like that sluggishness of the last few weeks is lifted. Though this can just my perception and nothing really changed. Still it might be worth uninstalling and reinstalling dogfight on your devices.

The practice plane can be deceptive with testing. It feels like it has 4 stars in maneuverability to me. Again this could easily be perception only.

Some of the players i like (like the gen) so i just have fun but other players i dont have any respect for i hate losing to.

HOW CAN APPLE SUCEED IN A DOGFIGHT. I WOULD WELCOME ANY COMMENTS.

I have always thought the ipad was superior. Of course I never used one and never will. I started on a DROID X and now use a Galaxy Note 3 :) it's prolly best Davy, if you start off dogfighting/chasing with a bag phone. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about ;)

Actually i never heard of a bag phone.

I did win a couple of dogfight with regular players so that's a small improvement.

I wonder if I should get a galaxy 3 or one of the other galaxy tablets and try that, ZUPERMAN said that there should be no advantage between devises but I'm not convinced of that.

DOES ANYONE HAVE GALAXY AND WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THEM. PLEASE COMMENT. THANKS.

IS ONE GALAXY TABLET BETTER THAN THE OTHER.

I fly with a Samsung Galaxy 2, Davy. Works GREAT! I've never seen the split screen, I don't get dropped out of games, little to no lag, haven't run into any of the other problems I see others posting about. Big screen and very bright, I love it

The galaxy note 2 and 3 are pretty much the same..The note 3 has a few more added things but the same none the less...either one is note a tablet though. Tablets are a bit bigger:) i never used anything bigger then my note 3 and to me it's very nice:)

Tablets have an advantage, for long range shots. Hense, TABLET NOOB.


How would you know that, unless you have played with multiple devices? My Droid Maxx seems to turn faster and has better performance in a furball, but my Ipad 2 steadies a target in the cross hairs better. The size of those little dots at range seems about the same.

If you are worried about being picked of at a distance by those with tablets, let me quote a line from "The Replacements" - "Why don't you try SCRAMBLING?"

Would it be the device or the latest updates that run smoother on it?

Just got everything Apple, so would sooner find another game(Rrise of Flight, or so on pc)....although I would miss it, and especially you guys.



EDIT! A moment of weakness, guys. DF rules!
