gyroscope games

Coming from FruitPhone world, a lot of the Gameloft games used the fantastic gyroscopic controls, just bought Modern Combat HD from the market place and there are no options to use it, I'm sure the SGS2 has gyroscope functions, why, what, if and how...
Very disappointing used to love the gyro controls, so much quicker and more realistic.
a lot of games use the gyroscope or accelerometer for control. all the gameloft hd racing games do, the emulators do as well, just apparently the gameloft hd action games don't. i also have modern combat, brothers in arms and splinter cell and i would love to use the gyroscope as well, because with the left thumb on the analog stick to move and the other thumb for looking around, it's hard to get a third finger on the display for shooting.
If u want to play a nice gyroscope shooter i recommend NOVA HD also from Gameloft.
Edit:Just tried it and it works really nice as soon as you get used to it. Hope i helped you out a bit.
Yes just download the free version through the Gamehub, works a treat with the gyro, so much faster to aim, love it...
So why have Gameloft not introduced the gyro to there other First Person games ?
Racing games actually use accelerometer and nova is the only one using gyro. One stinking game in 3 months.

WILDBLOOD worst controls ever

Im getting so annoyed with this game wildblood it has to have the worst controls ive ever experienced on a android game which is such a pity cos the game itself is great but its always at that crucial moment when the stupid camera spin completly out of control and you all ways end up looking the wrong way.....but all ways at the time you need to shoot an arrow or sum crap it gets sooo friggin annoying.
and a pad controller doesnt work with the arrow...... coincidence eh
edit>: god damn worst controls ever!
Agreed. The touch screen controls are jittery and not smooth. I was at a part with a HUGE cross bow and shooting a slew of oncoming enemies... all you do is aim and fire... well it wasn't so easy. It lacks fine control. It seemed it would get in the general area around the enemy then stop... and skip around... and not respond.
Typically when I need fine motor control, you can rock your thumb but it seems this game doesn't see this. It requires an actual swipe and won't pick up the swipe until your finger moved X amount of pixels. So if you need to fine adjust over 5 pixels, but it won't pick up a swipe till 15px, it jumps to the other side of the enemy.
Gameloft is the GREATESTEST GAME DEVELOPER EVER AND EVER AND FOREVER! There must be something wrong with all of my Nexus devices and Samsung tabs because Gameloft could never ever screw anything up.

[q] xperia zl screen unresponsive during gameplay

Hi everyone. I had a Xperia z but sold it and got the smaller Xperia zl because of personal preference. However I have noticed a few potential flaws with this phone . First of all the back of the phone gets pretty hot whenever I play games Like Real Racing 3 etc, it has even shut itself off on one occasion.
My main issue with the phone is That the touchscreen is pretty unresponsive during gameplay. The screen is very responsive during normal usage, for example navigating the home screen or browsing the web, The phone is able to register even the slightest of touches. But during gameplay I have to tap on the screen with extra force to steer in Real Racing 3 or whenever I am playing games via the Drastic DS emulator, the on screen directional pads dont register my taps upless i tap pretty hard or press the buttons with a slight swiping motion. i am worried because I got this phone for gaming and really don't want to get rid of it. Could it be the screen protector thats installed? or that the touch screen isn't calibrated?
also sometimes when i try to navigate between home pages by swiping, the screen bounces back instead of going to its intended target. i have the model c6506. and its on android 4.2.2 and also i never had any such issues with the xperia z
maybe its the screen protector. other possibility is that its the games' problem, not the phone. as u say, its good when on home screen etc.
iam inclined towards second possibility though, its the game which is problematic.
hit thanks if i helped u!

Ok i downloaded super stick golf 2 and tried it and guess what, the touch screen is very responsive, that game uses mostly taps, and this registers the slightest taps. I am gonna test some more games and see if your theory is right.
ok tested some more games
Tested simpsons tapout and had the same issue with taps not being registered properly
Tested Dead Trigger and the game runs flawlessly, the slightest taps were registered
Tested Beach Buggy Blitz and the screen is slightly unresponsive also, kinda difficult to steer, i have to apply extra pressure to the touch screen.
Ultimate Mortal Kombat works flawlessly, i was pulling off combos and brutalities with ease
Jetpack Joyride was a bit unresponsive also
So I guess the problem varies from app to app. I really dont want to remove the screen protector but i have to to ensure that I dont have a faulty device. I have an extra screen protector so as soon as I can verify that its the screen protector, i will simply re-install it. now how do i go about removing it because i am trying but it seems glued on!
gonna sell this

OK its definitely not the phones touch screen, i just did some tests and the touchscreen is absolutely responsive in every aspect of the operating system except when playing some games. So the digitizer is great. so it must be the darn screen protector!, and i dont want to remove it because it is glued on and i dont want to risk damaging the screen underneath. my favourite games are the ones giving problems with responsiveness. Even the ppsspp emulator from the playstore i gotta swipe the directional pads etc for the game to respond.
I dont think screen protector was the culprit, the app itself is not optimize for sony device or sony OS is not that stable.

as per my understanding, ur screen is flawless, its the apps, maybe they are not optimised.
more tests done
ok I can confirm its definitely the apps, some of them are are optimized properly for the xperia zl. I have tested need for speed most wanted (2012) and it works flawlessly, controls are spot on and screen very responsive. Also raven sword 2 and pvz works great. its a minor issue at best really but i cant play my psp or nds games on my zl properly unless i use a controller. which is fine cause i do have a huge 5 inch 1080p display. and I really love this phone so i will overlook this issue. for now

All of these games are XP optimized. And PoP SaF is really good, first PoP for Android was boring for me (and really hard), but this is something different - and playable

TOP 5 games NOTE 10 +

What are your top 5 games that you play on your Note 10+?
Plague Inc
Super Hexagon
Thumper
PinOut (best pinball game on android! imo)
RAID: Shadow Legends
I've been playing:
Call of Duty Mobile
AdventureQuest 3D
Bladebound
Arena of Valor
Rangers of Oblivion
and then of course the PPSSPP emulator with God of War, Metal Gear Solid, Kingdom Hearts, etc (def need an external controller though: https://amzn.to/2kkhmvH)
My all top favorite game is
Archero
Best grinding and challenging game
The elder scrolls legend
Drastic
Mario kart
epsxe
Final fantasy ix
Super Mecha Champions
Zgirls 2
Cyber Hunter
Perfect World
Astral Chronicles
I play my Xbox games on my Note 10+ via the Streaming service, no need for paying double or ad ridden games.
COD
PUBG
mobile games are just that. I'm not sure why publishers are pushing DQ, COD, DeadSpace, FF games on us. If I want those, I'd rather play on the consoles. And did someone say Raid? LOL, how much are they paid for shilling that crap?
When you have to attach an xbox controller, then what's the point? might as well play it on the xbox. Oh, so you're waiting in line at the DMV with an xbox controller attached to the phone? Y tho? are you honing your MLG skills for the next tourney?
my suggestions for the top 5:
1. Any of the Sonic games.
Great for the nostalgia nerds. Easy to understand: go from left to right, collect rings and avoid traps, pitfalls, spikes. Yes, this is basically a console port, which I just *****ed about but the simple graphics and easy controls and simple gameplay makes this an exception to the rule.
2. Skyforce Reloaded or Air Attack 2
Honestly, any smups (shoot'm ups) are great. Simple controls, easy pick up and put away when waiting in line
3. Golf Peaks or Ok Golf or Mini Golf 3D
everyone hates golf, but these games are pretty neat in their own right.
4. Alto's Odyssey or Alto's Adventure or Ski Safari 2 (Ski Safari 2 AT)
great games especially when paired with a headphone. The calming music and simple controls will put you in a relaxed mood, especially when the line doesn't move.
5. Paper Monster or Leo's Fortune or Oddmar
For those who like the platform style of gaming, these games are great. Even today, Leo's Fortune's graphics hold up well.
honorable mention:
Pocket Build or Pocket City or Minecraft or Stardew Valley
good graphics and enjoyable games for those who like to build and miss those SimCity type games. Stardew Valley is fun, it's one of those games where you will pick it up randomly and start playing just about anywhere. Minecraft, no introduction needed.
I tried the FPS games but they are laughable. Controls are convoluted and they don't even support game pads. Besides, even having the biggest phone screen in the industry, it pales to a console hooked up to an 85" screen. I'm not that desperate where I need my COD fix while on in public. I can wait until I get home, relax on the couch and play enjoy the KD on the consoles. you can't really hold your phone and quickly run, aim and toss a grenade at the same time. precision counts when you're going against someone. That's why they took a way the controller support, those with controllers always annihilate those fumbling with onscreen controls.
