[QUOTE="superballs, post: 94550, member: 341"] I know and understand that this might seem like a very asinine statement, especially with TPA on a single device starting to become a very large investment. But I'd recommend grabbing a Nexus 7 and switching to shake nudging, invert off. I'm NOT trying to start a ios vs android debate here. And I'm really hoping that this doesn't decend into that. Now, first, i'm talking about the old Nexus 7, even a 16GB version, dedicated to TPA. Grab a couple tables. The issue with TPA on ios...and it's a TPA issue not an IOS issue is that shake nudging is terribly delayed. Otherwise the game plays like a dream. When I was playing on iOS, i found this horribly frustrating. I also got a friend of mine to download it on her ipad mini and even though the game played amazingly, the shake nudge was still horrible. See, shaking a table is an intuitive way to nudge. I've played on several Android devices and they have similar problems. S3 = Shake nudge delay, Note2 = Shake Nudge delay. Nexus 7? It's perfect. I don't know what they did. I don't know if that particular tablet has less lag in it's accelerometers vs the other devices. I honestly just don't know. But getting one has been the best move I've made in regards to TPA. Now, when I made the switch, I already had everything up to Scared Stiff, plus Star Trek and TZ. And at that point I wasn't keen on having to buy all the tables again. I'm assuming you have bought most of the tables for IOS and i know that we're a lot further in at this point. This isn't an ideal suggestion convenience-wise. But from a purely "what's best for nudging" perspective, it's the only advice I can give. [/QUOTE]
