*** Vendetta 1.8.252
- Improved game controller support for Android (including Ouya). Changed some of the default analog binds for new installations. Added a 'virtual mouse' that is controlled by the left stick with 'A' being the 'left mouse button'. Any other button will cancel the virtual mouse. You can press and hold 'A' to drag items or to long-press in the navmenu to create waypoints. Added D-Pad support in the virtual keyboard. Other controller buttons are shortcuts for different actions in the virtual keyboard. 'X' is backspace, 'Y' switches between symbols and alpha characters, 'L3' toggles Shift, 'R3' is space, 'L1' and 'R1' move the caret left and right. 'A' selects the active key, and 'B' cancels the virtual keyboard.

- Game controllers can now be connected to an Android device while the game is running and the controller will be automatically detected when any of the analog controls on the controller are moved.

- Added native support for game controller HID devices but requires an apk update.

*** Vendetta 1.8.252.1
- Fixed an error when a game controller is incorrectly detected.

*** Vendetta 1.8.252.2
- Fix for Android version with game controller and Touchscreen mode disabled.

That definitely sounds like a plus.

Someone wake me up when gameplay changes in some meaningful way.

Improved controls are a pretty big gameplay change for people playing on on phones and tablets...

We should require that every new release tohave at least some generic content, instead of only Android/iOS ...
Seems most people, as myself, feel abandoned in such updates.

Even a small tweak would be better than nothing...

Wow, I actually agree with Alloh on something, I think I need to go to the hospital.

Hah, require? Are the devs on your payroll or something?

Oh wait... >.>

Maybe not require, but at least try to. It's their game, they can misrepresent all of the hive bots if they want to.

Whiny bitches, no wonder the devs hardly read the forums anymore.

"Require" is too strong a word, I think. We have no authority over what the devs do, is my point. A tweak per update would certainly be nice, though.

What you think is also irrelevant, go friend yourself tarenty x

A tweak per update would be wonderful, and is usually a target; but when it isn't happening, it's usually problematic for some reason. Like, last week I was sick as hell and used what little energy I had posting on the forums about why there haven't been game changes, instead of making game changes. The "tweaks" usually come from me (in some way), Michael and Ray's schedules are usually too "time-critical" for a lot of flexibility.

I'm happy that we have user-visible changes going on at all right now.

I hope to do some game tweaks before E3 time. A few perhaps this week.

Hey, you were supposed to be ignoring the forums for a few days and getting better! Back to bed with you! Chicken soup! Vitamin C! No reading Lecter posts for a week!

Haha if I had to come up with a tweak a week for the dev team to implement we wouldnt run out of simple value tweaks for like a few years

Heh.

Although ya, some type of non android / ipad crap would be welcome, and without breaking other shit would be a good thing.

Sounds like somebody hasn't been paying any attention at all for the last couple years.
