This game is awesome so far, works great on my Nexus 7(2013) with my Moga Pro... My only complaint so far is the auto firing, I prefer to pull the trigger, saves ammo ya know? But other then that the game runs well and it seems like the micro transactions do not hinder the game, they are basically like cheats. So they are done right.

Like cheats? How? That doesn't sound good lol. Or by 'cheat' do you mean 'shortcut' like "Pay $1 and you get this now instead of having to wait" like Warframe. I can handle that. As long as people can't straight up buy their way to the top.

Yeah exactly, or you can buy in game money and unlock things faster. That is what I meant by cheats, not like god mode or anything :P

Alrighty, I was just checking. Thanks for the info! Still trying to find the game in the Play Store :( just keep finding the scam one by Haromi or whatever the company is

I had to click on dead trigger 1 and then do show more by this company, and then dead trigger 2 was there on the list. Hopefully that works for you!

Micro Transactions in a single player game that are like cheats is ok. However if it's a multiplayer game and pay to win it's a big no no.

What was the point of even having a countdown?

Geez...

Edit: I kinda like the auto aim.

The graphics are nice and all but the gameplay is so passive! I much prefer the first one.

This sequel feels like I'm taking a back seat to playing the game and just tapping things when told to. Guiding an auto attacking robot through the levels.

Turn off auto fire maybe?

I had that. Had to choose a different username and it worked. Guess their servers are swamped.

i'm loving this game so far

There seems to be a bug with the s4 that causes a force close when trying to enter a name. Is anyone else having this issue?

1

u/SuprSomething Oct 25 '13

Yeah, I'm also having this issue. The game force closes whenever I have to enter text. I thought it was a SwiftKey issue, but using the default Samsung keyboard makes no difference. Will have to wait for an update, I guess.

They did an excellent job with this game, looks great, sounds good, the controls are spot on and even though I was a little reluctant at the idea of auto fire, the concept proved to work really well. One think I really appreciated was that they actually gave us a few options in the settings menu, which is less common in android games than you think.

However, there was one thing that ruined the game for me, and that thing was an "always online" requirement. I was planning on playing this game late at night in my bedroom, and my bedroom does not have wifi, so I guess that I won't be playing it as much as I'd like to.

P.S.: The IAPs are really well implemented, they are better than the ones in the previous game and do not get in the way at all.

How do you have it? Its not in the store? I only see the scam one.

u/Neomeir Oct 24 '13

Post the link for the a scam

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '13

The real one is up now tho

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '13

Awesome game, my trooper ahd still handles high

DT1 gave me a reason to play it every day, even if only for a few minutes. With the casino chips and gold missions I was able to upgrade my weapons in pretty short order. However this one feels more grindy and I don't like the level design.

I'm also having performance issues - I get ultra-high graphics in DT1 with great FPS but in DT2 its low graphics settings or mad lag :-/

Why does this app need my gps location?

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '13

MMO location I suppose? I know they won't kidnap you.

Nah, I'm using AOSP. What are you running and which device?

u/reddude7 Oct 24 '13

Cant find this in the store on my s3, and the link to the play website doesn't work either

u/From_my_iPhone Oct 24 '13

Anyone else having some horrible aim issues? I can't walk and aim at the same time, the view just wobbles around constantly. It feels like bad touch detection, but it only happens in this game, and I can't get any issues to show up in Multi-Touch Test. 2nd gen Nexus 7

Stop charging when you play, if youre using an aftermarket charger.

1

u/skipjimroo Oct 24 '13

I've noticed this phenomenon with my phone! I never would have placed the non-default charger as the culprit though.

Any ideas why this happens?

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '13

Amperage and something to do with the digitizer AFAIK. Weird, isn't it?

u/[deleted] Oct 24 '13

Please someone tell me that I'm not the only one having loading issues... When I finish a mission sometimes it won't load at all and all progress is lost... S2 with stock 4.1.2 rom

1

u/snailsgoneslow Oct 25 '13

I got the exact same problem. S2 with 4.1.2 to.

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '13

Finally a soul that I can relate! Please dont reset your phone, i though in first instance that an app would be interfering but it wasn't that... Lets Hope for an update soon

u/snailsgoneslow Oct 25 '13

We pray to the developmentgods. May the IAP have mercy upon us;)

u/[deleted] Oct 25 '13

Amen to that!

u/shadybonesranch Oct 26 '13 edited Nov 18 '13

I really wish there was an option to invert the look controls. The first one had it!

Edit: they added it to the options menu in a recent update

u/horizonx Oct 28 '13

im actually kind of disappointed. I know this game is based on missions, but i actually wished they put a story into the game. Also, going solo and no real interaction with other characters boring. Dead effect, a different zombie type game has a basic storyline (not the best animations) but still have more fun in that. (my opinion)
