The camera icon rarely works same as the note book icon. Impossible to change view when in parachute so I can't shoot, hVe to hit the icon a dozen times before it works.

I was able to do this no issue from my Droid HTC phone, but the game was over so quickly with me and Kivi in blue that I only have one chance to test it ;)

I got the same problem. When I'm shot down and in the chute I hit the camera button to go to 1st person for sniping. Automatically it goes right back to 3rd all by itself, so I have to hit it for a 2nd time. By that time it's too late, I'm either already shot 8 chute or landed on the ground. I'm on galaxy s5active.

You must be playing a different version than I am. The planes are slow, the hits are slow to register, it takes fifty round to kill a tank, the tank is slow, i have to toggle repeatedly for parachute view, half the time I hit chat message I get kicked.

This isn't whining, this is statement of fact.

Well, hopefully all the updates will catch up. If everything comes out the way my Kindle Fire HD feels now I'm guessing everyone will be happily killing reds again soon.

I wish the planes were correspondingly faster directly in relation to their size (50% bigger I believe, so 50% faster would be nice) as it still feels as though I am dogfighting with a bomber rather than fighter.. but perhaps that's just my perspective.

How do you know what version or device I'm on? If you want to carp about bitchers, fine, but I'm making rational, valid points. I've "dealth with it" for coming up on two years now, and when asked to pay more in a commercial transaction I expect more, not less, for the exchange. I don't expect a perfect game, but I expect it to get better, and the only way to make it better is to point of the shortcomings.

Does anybody care to say what device there on ? How else can u report a problem ? The whining & long statements is not as of important as knowing what device is giving u the problem ?
So lets try not to forget to state our devices name..by doing so zup/(trouble shooters) can know the operating system that device is using for a more better, faster, & practical response. just try'n ta help..

Davy says, thank you longrifle, you assessment is dead on. This is strictly to let everyone know the positive and negatives of current game. Nine you really just insulted a whole bunch of people. If only one person posted about the problems than ZUPERMAN wouldn't know the severity of the problems but if everyone posts than he will know and then work on it.

Given all that the new Apple update was today, there is still one more Apple update until Apple is caught up. I can't wait for that update to come out. The ones who has played the new mission really likes it.

The tanks are back now, I hit a hanger with my first shot.

There are some of the usual problems but it's not a fair assessment until Apple releases its next update. The biggest problem being the carrier game is really messed up which should be repaired with the next update.

However the reds keep shooting me down, I wish ZUPERMAN would fix that. :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

Nineb,

The only thing offensive was that you threw out a condescending remark that put people down (labeling their complaints as whining by babies and therefore not legitimate) without having all the facts (lots of people are still perceiving a flying problem). Hey we all throw stuff like that around, and I've certainly called in the waambulance for whiners. But when we cross that hairy line into full condescension, having the facts straight is the only difference between righteous jabs versus insulting put-downs. With so many people still struggling and providing valid feedback, you took the latter route, and then followed it up with more even when Longrifle took the reasonable high road.

Then defending the action as just stating your opinion really diluted the apology. The error wasn't in stating an opinion; we all do that, all day, every day. The error was the flippancy, the crossing into insults when the facts were not in line. It's the equivalent of playground insults that end in "hey right-to-speech man!"

I'm not posting this to put you down. I like your posts, people are respecting you here, and you are way better than the flippant condescenders and playground simpletons. It's just a point of feedback that I think you might internalize. You are free to disagree of course! Zup certainly disagrees with us that the flying is slow, but I think there are many reasons for the perception, cross-device differences in turning speed for example. But I digress. I hope my post does not come across as condescending.

Manfred

More things I love about the latest update:

* Many hits for a kill. (2 could be luck, 3-5 seems more 'realistic')
* No more floating tanks!
* Chute and plane both die in a crash.
* More hits to kill a tank.

Yeah, I also like the Physics better now, feels more like what I expect from that era of planes.

And the on screen keyboard now auto pops up when I tap chat, that is a big plus....Thanks Zup!

But I crashed with a another plane several times, lower rank, I always went down, but he didn't . Anyone figured out what the new rules are regarding crashes????

I'm running two platforms that both auto-update, android and apple. I still don't have the zebra paint ot capture the flag missions on apple, so I believe I'm one update down on apple and current on android.

From apple: If I hear five hits my tank explodes, but I need to put mucho rounds into a red tank to kill it. tank speed is slow, especilaly uphill, approaching allied base. Red aircraft will go down with two hits, but it takes a while. If I keep the bullet hose on it seems to catch up quicker. What I can't do is see two hits and turn to another target, as I'll get chewed by the plane that showed the hits on the screen but didn't register yet. Still trees on the carrier deck. Still random radar sightings as planes come in from the corners on respawn, rather than respawn at the carrier. Doesn't happen at base, only carrier. When I chute the view flashes and I have to hit the video camera button twice, still, otherwise it defaults back to non-rifle view.

from android: tank speed approximately what it was, maybe slower by a stitch. planes still feel sluggish. timed a run when there were no reds but can't remember what the "old" time for the run was to compare.

I will time (in real time) the apple run and the android run and compare the two.


Zup and I sent emails about the subscrition, also seems f'd up but may be apple lag as it took 5 days last month to withdraw fuds from submission.

Working with banks, you would be surprised how many "electronic" payments turn into automated checks mailed on your behalf to a vendor, that then have to clear recievables.

the speed on airplanes and tanks are the same as always, it's just the change on size that makes it look slower. You can time one by side and see they go at the same speed.

Please look at this, it is relevant to the current discussion.

All I can offer here are my personal experiences within the game. The other night, I was in a game with my friend MonsterCannon. He had the latest update whereas I did not. It became evident to me rather quickly that he only had to hit me twice and I would be shot down, in order to shoot him down I had to register a minimum of five hits. At first I thought it may be lag, but the lag tends to come and go but this was consistent.

Have patience folks, it will all be worth it in the end. ;)

Since the planes & tanks are 50% larger can you increase their speed or 'apparent speed' so the planes seem like fighter planes again? (I understand that they are still flying at the same speed as before, but with the increased size they seem sooooo slooooow..)

*Kind of like if you were going 70kph in a big truck way off the ground it seems slow, but then transferred to a low slung sports car and it seems fast.. just in reverse for our planes though.

If I do that, the physics goes nuts. A WWI plane flying at that speed would just shake like crazy and crash In fact, all airplanes shakes already when you hit top speed as you can see, add more speed and that thing is impossible to control
