Some Android devices have Desktop mode in the developer options. The DeX feature might be real for all Android devices in 2023 maybe?
Right now it's only a Samsung thing
iOS does support HDMI out though so, I wouldn't be surprised if you could put sky on the TV on iOS as well
a lot of Android devices support HDMI out
it's not a DeX-exclusive thing
DeX just gives it a nicer UI
although that doesn't change anything when you're playing a game in fullscreen
Well yeah
DeX actually does a lot. I've noticed that the game launcher does not detect a game running when I launched it in DeX. In addition, any application I loaded within DeX immediately vanished from the processes whenever I undocked the phone. So it's almost like it's an isolated environment.
90% Android is better, I consider iPhones better for photo and games like sky only
Omg sorry for the ping π¬π¬
Meant to turn it off
Woah @karmic elk muted π
Was reading past convos RIP
Apparently an offensive meme π¬
Back to Android
You don't need to be sorry for that?
I think it's rude to ping
Specially if they are already online,or the conversation had happened much before
I don't think like that though. If people are busy they should be on DnD
Right
e
I got 4000
Wheeze
I should double check my scores on 3DMark
I barely remember them
S20 FE 5G
lol
what the heck
The A20 gets 469 on Wild Life
nice
Ngl I don't understand why it's so serious about π€¬π€¬
Discord is 13+
Atleast implying them or semi censoring should be okay
The game is 9+ though, and is wholesome and fully family friendly, therefore this server echoes that sentiment and maintains those values fully.
Not saying they ought to be at all, it isn't safe. But thats the age rating the game was given.
The wholesome part 
cough Eden
krills
Ah yes it is indeed relaxing
At the end
Hanging out
This is android questions though. Feel free to discuss this in #general-sky-discussion
Back to Android again :)
Oh since you're here,
Why doesn't it allow reacting with clown emoji?
Offensive?
Because it is rather passive aggressive and rarely used in a positive way. Please stop testing the filters, though.
it's because android os doesn't support the π€‘ emoji
hehe
Ehm
I wasn't testing lol, it's the first time I did it and I was shook
It isn't mentioned anywhere π
Just a thought... How would one remove a reaction from a msg? (Assuming they were the owner of said server)
right click/long tap the message
that's sounds like a question for google to answer π
go to Reactions
I mean...
I clicked with my right index finger, didn't work π€
Joking lol
turn it off and on again
lol
_>
You can see your reactions on discord even if you aren't owner
and then if you have perms
on the right, if you hover over
there should be a 'x'
Oooo
This ss was taken at Max Graphics. It's 403KB
This was taken at least graphics. The file was 200KB
They're compressed. The more that is on the SS the bigger it will be
What?
Like zoom in zoom out? It's zoomed out completely
Look at how simple the second screen shot is.
Take a screenshot in both setting of the same place
Ahhh
Okay.
Does battery level make a difference?
no
are there any android phones that will not allow you to download sky?? my friend canβt download it for some reason but everyone else who has an android can.
give this a read through
Not all android phones are compatible. Also if your friend is in different country, Sky is not available in all regions.
my internet connection and data speed is way faster than my mobile data but however my sky has connection problems and delay when i use my internet. it's normal when it's just using data however
is this normal or
the only region i've heard of that blocks it is China
since
well
their government is trigger-happy with censorship
so they get their own servers
might be the wifi router throttling you for some reason?
and limiting the amount of bandwidth that goes to Sky servers
not sure. how do i even check that?
depends entirely on your router
it's normal if i use my other phone tho, the servers are fine and the connection speed is really fast using my internet
well hmm
there goes that idea then
maybe an issue with the wifi chip in your phone
perhaps? the connection is sometimes unstable compared to my other phones and the internet will disconnect itself if i, for example use it behind a wall or a barrier
Google for an online speed test with ping test (important) and stability test.
Many times average download speed is good, but it has peaks and drop-outs
my ping test is 3
3 is very good
anything in or near the single digits is good
packet loss is still always a possibility over wireless connections though
sometimes it spiked to 27 
Speedtest.net has only average measure
true
27 can be bad btw
27's passable
not great for stuff that requires quick reactions though
It depends on how stable is it
playing any sort of fighting game or shooter on 27 ping sounds like a nightmare unless the netcode is just really good, for example
i always play on fps with ping more than 30 so i don't think it's that much of a nightmare
sometimes hundreds
but back to the main point, what should i do then?
Try on different WiFi networks
If the problem persists, then it can be WiFi antenna problem of phone
If the problem is gone, then you need an IT technician to troubleshoot your WiFi router (or buy another router)
Hello! Im asking a question for a friend who wants to play but can't
the only current information they gave me is they use Android 10 but the game isnt compatible
may I know what's the problem in this?
We already read it
Aight! Thank you for your time
If it's a Samsung A10, it's not 64 bit for example, so it isn't compatible with sky. Even though the A10 has Android 10 on it.
i think you can also share your screen to the TV if you have certain androids
i tried doing it once
ngl you can actually play sky while doing that, but the phone gets quite hot
Sharing screen tends to make it laggier though, right? Or at least from my experience 
Poco x3 gpu - adreno 618
π
Only these support 60fps
this list is not exhaustive
Cuz mali is not really clear here
There are different versions of mali g76 which support 60fps or not
HDMI via USB-C has no device overhead. Casting your screen via screen cast will make it laggy. Screen mirror via HDMI and/or USB has no lag... There is a small delay of about 1 frame, but not experience breaking.
Ohh I see
ty!
:<
Why
Idk
yeah it does become a bit laggy but nothing that doesn't stop you from playing
on my phone, at least
I played pubg at 90+ ping most of the time and it isn't that bad, I used the claw grip technique and needless to say I got pretty good at it
But rn it's banned so π₯²
Hello,
After android 11 update everything looks big, like friends constilation, name etc, is there any way to bring it normal, ty
@karmic mesa
Thanks for reply, but mine is not enabled
Darn... I am running on a Samsung device that got the update to Android 11... but my text isn't abnormally large so I wasn't able to troubleshoot and come up with a solution.
I am using Samsung too, just updated to Android 11 this morning and things got to look weird :(
Apparently that's pretty common... Not sure of any solid way of fixing it though.. you could try adjusting your display size in your display settings..
But I have low Faith this will fix it
#wishlist-and-ideas-archived ? Although definitely not the logo and all (because copyright ofc), but a cape with a hood would be cute
Wrong topic I think
Post the image in wishlist, but Im sure sky won't use others art for legal reasons
So I checked my screenshot quality and it looks fine on different graphics levels. It must have been because of different zooming earlier
Um, I updated my phone a week ago and my Android version is 11 right now. After I updated it, the texts looking bigger than before and font is changed to the what I'm using. I have no idea why did it change. Does anyone know how to get it like back?
Before:
It's a known issue after updating to android 11 for some phones... iirc making text smaller in your phone settings helps make it back smaller in game as well, although it's not an actual fix fix
It is inconvenient :/
Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 lite
i don't know how i was able to beat the game with that
Lol you don't actually beat the game
The game beats you
π of your time and money
lmao yeah
best part about having low performance is going on top of a mushrooms, jelly, or manta
and being launched into the stratosphere
I research your GPU and
ARM Mali-G72 MP3
16nm
No shared Memory
And it's older
So it runs poorly on your tablet
It's 16nm?
nm?
π³ Huawei is working on 3nm
Shocking
Wait... You're getting performance like that on an S7??? S7s can run the game relatively smoothly... -_-
I was getting performance like that on my Galaxy S7
it never cracked the screen, but one time i dropped it by accident and the screen never turned back on again
yyeah no that was NOT what i felt like at all
in fact funny that your video shows sanctuary because my S7 straight up crashed there
I mean... If the screen won't come on, there's hardly a way to tell..
yeah lmao
this one is second hand from my dad
and it was ALSO those phones that you see on the shelves of stores
so it went through a lot
I got mine second hand too!! But it was from my grandmother. mine has a screen burn of my grandfather constantly on it so...
i also dropped it on a daily basis but the screen never cracked
It was a tough little phone
screen burn gang 
here's my performance
got this video from a bug report i did
god looking at that nowadays hurts how did i play the game like that
Dang
My A20 performed better than that
With less than half the specs
Yeah there's mine on top
It's just peacefully sitting in a box
oof
As you can tell, I take pretty good care of my stuff... The first two devices inside of that box can't even attempt Sky...
Or it will boom boom
O.o
Overheater
If you have old phone can play sky make it to homemake heater
How can you be friends with you in sky? You are nice
you can send, uh, me? sky duck? fyre? idk
My S7 did get really hot
you can send us your invite link
In here ??
you go to the games settings and click on "invite"
Sure, I'll DM you my QR
Kay kay
because it can only be used by one person
and if the wrong person uses it there is no going back
Ahhh i see... Thank u!
Someone explains how to unlink my Google email from my account I want to change it
You'll need to contact customer support for that.
Of course it can
It's one of the strongest smartphones in the world
Especially with its x mode enabled which will outperform the Samsung Galaxy S21 in every benchmark
Massive battery and obscene amount of RAM
I buy my own devices, I was done with school before online classes were everywhere...
Every week online classes
Always 6:50am
I was meaning tell you parent to buy you ROG phone 5 for online classes 

Besides, I already bought myself the S20 FE 5G... It's going to be a hot second before I need an upgrade



C'mon I need an ROG 5 ultimate for uhhh
Taking photos of notes
Dad please π
The teacher recommends it
Lol
I'm not dumb π
I know lololol
And your dad will put a pocket krill to krill you
oh wow i saw in bug reports a lot of android people having problems with the huge text size, just submitted mine too...
I don't have the problem since my OEM release Android 11 to my Phone
I would suggest trying this fix for large text. #android-questions message


thank you but it didnt work oh well
Oml other people are also have text size problems
solution didn't work since I never enabled full screen size in the first place but thank you, whoever posted that 
So is it just me or is android not allowed to make QR copy past codes ?
You should be able to.
Every code works only once so you need to make another one for every friend. Maybe that's why the code didn't work.
When you tap share, there should be an option to copy the link like in the attached image.
That's definitely not normal, does share options work with other apps? It's a built in function since Android 7.0.
Yeah, that looks like your share function is broken somehow. 
I π’
I cut it a little short since the share screen loads contacts and full names. But it does show the screen for a few frames at the end of what should happen.
Yeah nothing comes up for me but I can share stuff from the play store
What phone do u have ?
I would suggest filling out a bug report.
I have the trash s21 lol π
Google Pixel 3a
Be sure to put in the bug report, share function works with other apps
Its pretty old, but the Motorola Z2 Force has an Adreno 540 (60 FPS capable) and is pretty cheap second hand. As for a new phone, I can't think of any.
No second hand π¬
85 USD is hard to pass though. 
π
See, I'll probably have it as my daily driver and it should last for a good amount of time π
Like till I can earn
I still miss mine... I did some things you shouldn't with phones and now it refuses to boot. I would use the projector mod that came with the phone, free with proof of new purchase, and play games on a 80"+ projection... It was a nice phone...
Funny how people with Redmi phones always say sky sucks because of poor optimization, they always say it can run it at more than 60fps because they have excellent hardware π most of the time it's a Redmi 8 or something
They say the Devs are dumb and don't want you to have fun
Oh lol
That's not the case
It's a phone... My 7 year old 980 still beats the S21 and iPhone 12 when it comes to game optimizations. 
Yes, GTX. 
They are getting closer to running AAA pc games
Well, yes, and no. Only plus side of phones is they don't pull 200 watts from the wall. 
G76 MC4 can't get 60 right?
Right. I think MC10 or higher
They can already pull 120 
Oh, what about G77 MC9
Or Dimensity 1000
It should (MC9) No clue what a Dimensity chip is.
Adreno 620 can get 60? 
No. Also 60 fps on android heats up android devices too much for comfort.. At most I can play it for 15 minutes without external cooling. But maybe its coz my country has ambient temp of 30 centigrade up. So personally, if you want to play at 60 fps all the time, you should go for iOS or those high-end android gaming phones.
I wouldn't be here if I could afford an Asus Rog 5 ultimate
π
iPhones ain't practical for me, expensive too
iPad? Also no?
All devices emit some heat when going full throttle, which sky will make any phone do. No phone/tablet is safe from heating up playing Sky.
I am sending these messages from an Android tab π
It's higher than 540 and lower than 630
Soo
Here's a comparison on them making better optimizations though.
Since that update, there hasn't been any temp optimizations for my phone, though. It still gets up to 53Β°C on the CPU
wouldn't it be lower than 540 also? just higher gen? 40 vs 20
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
or have I been misunderstanding all of these aha
It depends on the performance uplift between generations.
I feel distressed when the temp reached 44 centigrade on my SD 855 tab. The SD 855 phone I used also felt too hot for comfort. So I don't dare to play 60 fps long without cooling. And this was during Season of Dreams.
44Β°C is quite low for a CPU. They can comfortably get up to 75Β°C without any adverse damage. Battery on the other hand...
Tab s6?
I used Samsung Game Launcher - Game performance z(?) To monitor the temp. I'm not sure which it was though: CPU or battery.
@sleek torrent yes
You also use a Tab s6?
Even at battery saving
Yes, but the lite variant
The normal one was double the price
44Β°C isn't that much to worry about for a battery. It gets hotter than that here during the summer and people don't have phones or tablets exploding on them. 
π it's written on batteries to keep them below 40
I think our highest recorded temp was around 53.4Β°C
Kinda hard when it gets hotter than that outside, though. For storage, they say keep below 40. They are designed to get hotter due to places like deserts where above 50Β°C is the norm
"Our" communist I see π
I hope my devices would last 2+ years though orz
Uninstall sky, they'll last for a decade
Hahahaha
Sky will shorten it to a month π
Budget wise, I just gave up on 60 fps. Middle range devices can't do that and live long enough...
My devices last longer than that. My phone is almost two years old and still running the latest, March 2021 security update, Android 11 and the battery still measures near it's original capacity. (2560mah compared to 2800mah)
Is it a OnePlus? We don't get long-term after-sales service of that brand in the Philippines AFAIK...
Samsung F62 is literally made for sky
Check it out
Biggggg battery, oled screen, beast performance
Cheap too
200mah drop in two years isn't bad, most phones will drop up to 500mah after two years.
It's a Pixel
The phone was $300 new, so can't complain. 
It's not available everywhere I guess
We don't get after-sales for Pixel devices either. 
After-sales service... Warranty? Odd, I thought all Pixels got at least a two year warranty...
I mean, if it breaks or needs parts replaced, there is no official service center in the Philippines.
AFAIK
Hmm... Maybe? I'll dig deeper https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/9218411?hl=en
AFAIK everybody who gets a Pixel in my country got it while they were abroad, as a gift or from the gray market
There is no official way to get it here. So even though the specs, the camera, the price, etc is compelling, its not a good option long-term.
Yeah, looking at options, seems Google doesn't sell there, so even phone support isn't an option as the image and link says. "Everywhere we sell Pixel phones." 
Yeah... I also looked into One Plus and they can only offer replacement if the device has a factory defect. They don't offer repairs.
So after-sales is also something to consider when getting a new phone from any brand. Unless you don't mind replacing a phone after around 2 years
So only some options are there for you?
The more popular a brand is the more likely the have service centers basically lol
That's an universal fact
I'm not careless with my phone, but it annoyed me when I had to wait for over a month after arranging things with a service center, only to be told that the battery replacement wasn't there. It just delayed me from getting a new phone instead.
Safest option will be
Nokia 3310
It'll outlive anyone
It'll self repair
Battery lasts for weeks
I actually had that phone. That sales pitch is not true. Lol
β¨ Nokia β¨
You dare say that π
Yeah hahaha. The T9 keypad will need replacement if you use it a lot. If you drop it the case can still shatter. Unless you put on another case.
But I think I lost mine in a public transpo lol
Stop being a clown we all know how good It is ππ€
It'll find you
It didn't π₯²
It will 
I have some name's to pronounce sky engine
SkyEngine
Skygine
Or
KrillEngine
Kirllgine

Or... Wait for it... King (lore reference)

I have an experience where whenever I'm levitating on a jelly pad, it sometimes launches me so high to the sky π Is that normal?
Yes, that is an effect of the Jellies.
Bad device
Wait
What
π
It happens badly when I'm lagging
Like
I go to space
Jellies normally launch you, that's... The... Point?
Sometimes Lag can launch you high into the sky
Without going to ..
Me too, and even like in the mantas
Yes
Oh, not that high, I thought you were talking like the ||jellies in orbit that launch you|| or the ones by forest temple that launch you to get up to the steps...
Normal ones
Yeah
They do have some bounce, but not yeeting bounce.
Like the jellies in Forest
Yeeting too
I'll screen record it someday and show to y'all lol
Very high sometimes
Suuuper high
I almost lost light in forest because of it
Then that's an issue. I thought normal launching of jellies
π
Lag causes it
Know how it you have more fps you can move faster in some games?
L- lag? What is this foreign word you speak? 
And I don't think my internet is the problem. It's most likely the phone
So professional players look on the ground to get better FPS and move faster
Like, the game crashes
Your levels of sarcasm is too damm high π
Yeah exactly what happens
It doesn't happen to me anymore Cuz my new phone is 10x the power of the A20
That, imho, is unplayable experience for me.
So it is actually and android thing?
Just on some android devices?
With low versions probably
More a device thing. It can't handle all the requests the game sends it so it goes. Brrrrzzzzt, hic derp, berp, beep boop. Then back to normal.
As you could see, it was a good FPS before and after the lag spike
It had to be where the tempuras are
Thanks
Hi
I have an oppo android phone and cannot get this amazing game, I was really excited that we could get it on Android but all I get is a non comparably notification. Will this be fixed in the future?
Hi try to download it to
No. The game is only available legitimately via play store and App Store. Do not recommend downloading from anywhere else.
I agree I don't think that's a good idea
Is that so..
But it is still upsetting that I can't get it
Btw i hve friend who is trying to play skyon pc via emulator and he canot available to install it nor download if i wasn't mistake
Using emulators is against the Sky TOS, @paper flower. Please donβt use or discuss emulators here.
Look through the pins in this channel. There is information about what is compatible and what happens if your device should be compatible but the store says no. @timber mist
Thank you boon my fingers are crossed that there is something worth looking for
Good luck!
@fiery mauve thank you for your time with helping me, sadly I have found nothing to help. I will just have to hope that one day ill have it on switch or later on my phone
4.3 stars?
It has been decreasing over time
Thank you bugs
And lag
did beta for android still open?
they just post an update and I'm confused that's why i ask here
yea I've been waiting for 30min
yeah me too lol can i have your qr?
!omgomghaveyouseenthe please keep beta chatter to the beta channels. 
Conversations, pics, and videos about the beta are spoilers
Please keep them in #beta-discussion or #beta-screenshots-videos.
!theskyisdown to those wondering
The sky fell! If you are experiencing server problems, please be patient. The devs are working hard to fix it as soon as possible 
@real narwhal @maiden mirage there will be no beta invites for both platforms unless tgc feels they need more testers, please read #beta-faq and ask in #beta-discussion if you're still confused
thank youπ
Wish android has this 
Some androids do
Woah
Where can I find gameplay of that
Here you go (High Def Mode 30 fps)
wasteland raw from Mobizen - https://youtu.be/QBJaH3JwZrs

@My Awesome Friends Gave Me Pass!#4215
Ofc quality was loss during recording and uploading to YouTube
High def mode doesn't use native res on most phones though for Android.
It still upscales due to compatibility issues with some Android devices.
If it was native res, we wouldn't have aliasing lines in screenshots.
It might be that albeit it's also 60fps or marked with 2 lightning bolts, but because it's high performance, it may enable even better resolution and/or additional anti-aliasing in that mode for compatible devices
Does that also mean despite having 2 lightning bolts it will consume more power than Level 3 - 3 lightning bolts?
I think the graphic fidelity of high performance 60fps is higher than the graphic fidelity of high-definition 30fps... Especially considering high definition doesn't look all that high definition, at least on a Snapdragon phone... They really do need to fix that stair stepping issue
For me 2 bolts consume more than 3. Hotter phone too.
I want 60 pretty bad lol
Thanks I'll watch it soon
π
It's a usual technique amongst several YouTubers that uploading a bigger video avoids quality loss during YouTube conversion even on lower res view settings
Linus tech Tips records in 4k and uploads in 1080p
It results in better detail
And quality even on lower res
Linus actually uploads 8K... And you can actually turn up his videos all the way to 4K
Me: They're the same picture
Thank you π
imma a android user too..i want to ask , do anybody know why i always get game crash everytime? sometimes it does. i used Oppo A3s ._.
Is your device rooted? Do you have any other apps running in background in the app drawer? Did you restart the device? Did you try to log in to Sky (to save your progress) and reinstall the game? Did you turn off firewall, etc by using direct plain connection? Did you download sky from play store? (Unofficial sources not supported)
Try these tips. It's also good to check your phone with a longer stress test with a benchmark app from play store
If you didn't root your device, it's most likely unrooted by factory default
Then it's fine
So is it normal that my phone always get crash plus laggy while playing? ._.
No it's not normal. Please check all tips above. It's hard to believe you restart phone and check network settings so fast
and there are more tips in the previous message for you to try, too
um...i will try now
Chipset Qualcomm SDM450 Snapdragon 450 (14 nm)
CPU Octa-core 1.8 GHz Cortex-A53
GPU Adreno 506
A3s Specs
Hmm, I don't know but maybe you downloading from unknowing sources
This specs is not powerful enough to play Sky
Excuse me, when will you grab the qualification
What qualification you mean?
Invites?
It's open when TGC needs more testers, it's full at the moment. So read #beta-faq for more informations 
(if ur still looking for answers)
When TGC announces it
S870 can use 60fps?
i would be very surprised if it couldn't
Will there be a way to change font size during game play. My font overtakes me whole screen. I tried tapping on other players just to have the chat box keep popping up. It was frustrating and my biggest dislike of the whole game. A game I love.
Check the 3rd pin here if your gpu supports 60fps
If yes, it's worth to write support too with your exact device type so they can confirm if you see your gpu in the support list
a lot of people have been getting this recently, file a report in #bug-reports-android
We don't know what TGC is working on.
But if you have had font size problems only recently, someone posted today in questions and answers that updating Samsung phone resolved the font size problem!
interesting
is high def mode actually more high def than 60fps mode?
galaxy s9
Actually in several cases high performance mode (60fps) looks better.
But it doesn't mean that 60fps on one phone looks better than high def or 30 fps! This is because of Android fragmentation and unpredictable.
For example sky is more enjoyable on my old Google pixel 2 many times with 30fps boosted mode than on my Pixel 5 with high def. Sky looks better on iOS (30fps) than any Android unfortunately.
But high def should have bigger resolution theoretically, whereas it can look worse than normal mode.
From left to right:
Battery saver - normal
High performance 60fps - High def
Note: battery saver looks very good now
Me: They're the same picture
The difference on the stone in the water or on the cape noticable on high def and these aliasing artifacts become disturbing in gameplay. Default 30 fps and 60fps is better
Because my phone using any settings they're always the same
Default 30 fps let the game littlebit smooth
Is there anything I can do to make Sky more smoother? Cause even with HW overlay thingy it's still laggy-
Hw overlay?
There's some ways to make sky smoother
Clear the Ram
And try to play Sky again
If not help
Reboot your phone
Repeat this step
If also not help
Buy new phone
ah that makes a lot of sense! i always felt like high def did little to make the game look better even though i usually turned it to that setting for screenshots
but 60fps is definitely the most enjoyable to play in since it's so smooth, although my phone can't handle it for long periods of time
Are IAPs broken for anyone else?
How do I sign into another account on android?
I had to do a bit more than that but I got it working, thanks
Hey I'm the friend manta mentioned and I can't download the game for some reason? It says that my device is incompatible with the version for some reason?
/have you already download the game?
Nope
/aww snap, normally if that's the case then i think you wont be able to play
Ah well thanks anyway!
@frosty stump try this
/hmm i dont think they have ios?
Nope
Read the end of the message, it has information on how to get your device compatible with google play, if it's a compatible device.
/nuh uh, iirc, galaxy a10e cant handle sky
That's true, but I don't see anywhere them claiming it's an A10E? 
/oh yea, they told us about it in a different chat!
Well here's the proof that I am indeed on it
/anyways-- i suggest, getting a different phone if you would like to play sky
Yeah that's probably the best option at this point
I don't think it's powerful enough to play sky
/i dont really remember which phone can run sky but i figured i just check the bug report page and low and behold there's a list of phones i could try
/but like, beware of spoilers
MP2.... MP2?! Yeah, even if it could load up the game, you won't see better than 12 fps on that graphics chip.
Wdym
2 media processors
My 9611 struggles to get 9fps ποΈπποΈ
I'd be schocked if that MP2 got 2 fps lol
Privet everyone

My phone alrwady struggle at 20fps
Is the 3a the only budget phone from 2019 that can handle the graphics demand of 60 fps mode or something? (well, it can't do more than like 44 fps and averages 40 fps, but still good for a budget device)
What about 4a
I checked the price of 3a in my country, it's much more than even the mi11 ultra
π±
Or even a S21
Similar GPU, so similar results. Adreno 615 vs Adreno 618.
On Pricing: Β―_(γ)_/Β― I got mine for 300 USD brand new in June 2019.
Comapred to 4a?
3a has the 615 and 4a has the 618
Ohk
If I had 4a budget
I'd get realme x7 pro
120hz amoled screen
65w charging
In display fingerprint
G77 MC9
I wouldn't touch Realme, Xiaomi, Samsung, LG, Lenovo, BLU, or Huawei... But that's for personal reasons.
It's the same reason I will never get Verizon or AT&T
LG is innocent
Samsung too?
Lenovo I don't like because too cheap parts and quality
All US Samsungs are perma locked due to Verizon and AT&T's demands.
Then I have to deal with Exynos
Qualcomm has the leg up still as they had Radeon's graphics since 2012 or so. Don't remember the date... That's why the iGPU is called Adreno, it's an Anagram for Radeon.
AMD was working on a mobile GPU called Imageon. It flopped, so they sold the rights over to Qualcomm
The naming can be blamed for it π
Image-on... What about image-off? Oh, right, that's called a crash
Snapdragon for example, sounds cool
Exynos is okay
But mediatek π
It's a name that disgusts some
Because of very bad processors
But their latest one is good
Adreno 618 can get 60?
Even if it won't be able to sustain or even get close to it
No. I changed my build fingerprint to a Pixel 4a and 60 fps was locked, changed it to a Pixel 4 (SD 855) and got 60 fps option though. (this was for testing purposes only. This isn't something you should do and is a complex procedure that most end users cannot do. DO NOT ATTEMPT)
The native res is like anti- aliasing is on
native res means the graphics output will be the resolution of the device, which isn't an option for Any Android device due to fragmentation and lower end phones crashing. iirc, we had native res a long while ago. (Sometime in Sanctuary season, native res was turned off and we are using a technique called upscaling. The game is rendered at a smaller resolution, then upscaled to fit the resolution of the screen which is the cause of the "jaggies.")
Anti-Aliasing is a completely different beast altogether.
Why just don't upscale to exact screen resolution it use's
I took a peek at Redmi Note 10 ultra or pro idk
It had good specs
Except GPU
The output to the screen must be the resolution of the phone. I.E. my Pixel 3a will always display 1080x2220
618 haha
If the game output any lower than that for my phone, it will have black bars and such
That 4k sony phone π
Some people have done it in pubg
No other use than to check if a certain phone supports
There are other uses, but can't talk about them here.
I had to change fingerprint when I was on Dirty Unicorns for example.
Maybe Dm? I'd like to continue, but if you thinks it's forbidden,okay
No idea what that means
Can anyone of you help an android player in #questions-and-help
The play store issue? I wouldn't know how to troubleshoot that. We always advise if it doesn't show up, it's not compatible. They can follow the direct link to see if the play store shows the device is compatible.
Oh okay, thanks 
Are there any tips to help with frame rate???
It has been sort of chaotic lately when it's been working beautifully until a few weeks back
Is it because of my device at all?? I don't know how this stuff works djdjjd
What's your device
Redmi 9!
Daria said it happened lately. This can mean it was OK for them.
My guess is that a hungry app was installed
Or network changed to less stable
Electromigration. Now you lerarned the word for what causes microelectronics to fail over time. 
Yeah or maybe its becoz of the sluggish UI , older phones should be rooted and then a clean rom should be installed to fasten it
Specially for mi phones
But it can't play sky
Very true!!!
It still runs, with okay visuals too, but as of lately fram rate has just been dropping so I'm guess it's because of quality :')
!ts
The next Traveling Spirit is scheduled to arrive on March 18th at 00:00 Pacific Time (UTC -7:00)
You can read how Traveling Spirits work here: http://bit.ly/TravelingSpirits
If you want a cheap range phone which can run sky smoothly, get Redmi Note 8 pro or Realme 6. If you have higher budget, go for OnePlus or Asus or a Samsung high end device. But you can also get an iPhone for almost same range and they can run sky even better
Hey, I'm writing this because I recently got a new phone and I lost all my progress on the game. Is there a way for me to get it back?
Did you link your account to Google Play or Facebook?
Only if you have your recovery ID from your old device, or you linked your account on your old device (Google e-mail, Facebook, Google Play)
Do you still have Sky on your old phone?
Not anymore, as for the link, how do link my new device to Google play?
Nvm, just figured it out and got my progress back
Thank you so much
When update?
3 estimate week
When tgc announces it
it'll be in #news when announced
For me clouds are still pixelated even on the highest settings I can get
On 3 lightning bolt settings they most likely will, because of Android fragmentation (read back a few messages from Uzephi these days) For best results I recommend 60fps or default mode. These are your best bet
I don't know but PowerVR has a low chance compatible with sky
Because many PowerVR GPU is not compatible
2gb ram is weak, too
2gb ram is very weakbut you only need 1.5 minimum to run sky. I suggest saving up for something like an ipad or newer samsung phone/tablet
and you need atleast 3gb for sky (space)
just check pins for more info :d
Save for higher configuration tablet like samsung Tab S7 or S7 pro or ipad 2020
What's the required android version?
8.0 or higher
I think I'm on 10 so why can't I see sky in the store?
What's your phone you using?
Samsung galaxy 10 I think...
CPU Octa-core (2x1.6 GHz Cortex-A73 & 6x1.35 GHz Cortex-A53)
GPU Mali-G71 MP2
It's toooo weak to play sky on this device
And I think A series are 32bit
Sky won't run in 32bit device
On future it won't run either
Oh ok...back to playing it on my macbook ;-;
Emulators are banned
Using emulators is against the Sky TOS, @silk river. Please donβt use or discuss emulators here.
Uhh @silk river It just framed u
The bot?
Yeah
It's just a reminder
Also i havent seen u on discord recently
Macbook with m1 can play sky
wdym? I was online a lot
So you can play sky on MacBook legit without getting any trouble
But you need m1 chip macbook and latest macos
Guys, the game is closing for anyone too? Because for me is been that a week, and I'm being scared of this because I'm not having how to do cr right

No. The game works well. Try to update in Google play. Restart device.
I uninstalled and installed it again, but there was no change. No updates appear on google. I can't even walk straight through the valley without closing. I'm very afraid that this means that I will not be able to play anymore 
Try to check network settings and disable Virtual Personal Network or proxy. What kind of phone you have (exact model)? Maybe your phone degraded over time.
I bought my phone in final of last year ;-; is an Xiaomi redmi note 9
@timber latch here
Wondering if there is a setting I can change somewhere so that the photos I take in-game don't look so pixelated?
I have a Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite (SM-G770F) running on Android 11
Even on the highest setting, this is the kind of result I get
...
long-standing Snapdragon bug that started when the devs fixed the issue where other weaker devices would crash when taking screenshots in areas like Sanctuary
a few people here have documented it but we haven't received any official word from the devs about it
which is a bit concerning because Snapdragon's generally the best processor brand all-around for Android
and if the evidence for the bug DreamFyre grabbed is any indication i'm pretty sure every Snapdragon device is affected
my phone is ALSO a redmi note 9 and i did not feel anything different tho
Hi there peeps! For all those who are on Samsung devices, a new thing has come out that may be of use for those who are on weaker devices!
https://apps.samsung.com/appquery/appDetail.as?appId=com.samsung.android.game.gamelab
Located in the Game Plugins is a new Priority Mode. This mode is very powerful, and I recommend trying it!!
Tfw your device is so weak/low-end it doesn't even have game plugins 
Tells me to go to settings then go to Help to paste a Code, but idk where lol
Has tgc mentioned that they know about the jellyfish spirit pants making your skin green instead of dark brown?
Yooo, going to check it out

I don't have it
Huh... Hmm
Kinda, it also closes all background apps for the duration of the game...
I think that may be the reason you cant see it
Yeah
Oh, when I got this device
It didn't have the booster at all
I got it after a big update
Not os upgrade tho
Technically I should get Android 12 too
Well phones with one ui 3 have already powerful phones, they don't need it anyways
We need it more lol
I agree
It essentially just clear background apps ram and probably overclock GPU or CPU a little bit
The fps booster :o
Omg
Many S6 lite got it from March 2nd
Dex, game booster are my main highlights
If sky doesn't work
I'm screwed π
Le pain, my phone is stuck on android 10 UnU
I contacted Samsung Support, did a lot of research
Then connected to France
Didn't work
You know virtual private network
Cant say the short form lol
Then after some time
Connected to Germany
It's working
It said it'll take 47 hours to complete π
So I disabled the virtual network
Currently downloading
???
what model are you on tho?
android 11 came out a long time ago
My luck
Insane
I updated to 11 for no reasonΰΌΰΊΆβΏΰΌΰΊΆ
Well
Like a 20fps increase
But it looks pixely in the screenshot
so its the same case on android tablets as on the phone huh...
still as pixely.... (qà _ ìq)
If like Snapdragon have that AA issues. Is that hardware level or software level problem?
I'm guessing it's software
I don't have the large text yet
It's small if anything π
Thank god it was software
Noice
Hey is anyone here using redmi note 8 pro? Before sky runs perfectly on this device but lately ive been experiencing game lags and crashes
What is this?
How this feature work?

Hi Andre, I'm using Redmi Note 7 and I have been getting bugs this last 3 weeks. The support advised me to change my graphic settings to low res in the game. Hope it helps.
How come you don't have any roles
It closes all background appa
*apps
And basically makes it smoother
I got like 20fps more
So it just clear's backgound process.
That's kinda lame
You could say high performance mode
^
Where you got this, please
Are you on Samsung?
Nope
Xiaomi
Which model exactly
Redmi note 9
Oh,
Mine isn't much better
It's worse if something
Exynos 9611 isn't at all for gaming
And here is where I chip in!
It's good for media
Pun intended?
Where do you find that tho? Im also samsung but never saw it before 
I get above 30
just curious
Device please
Some don't have it
galaxy note 10
And it needs One UI for the umm priority mode
yep
Search Game plugins
The Redmi Note 9 is 157% more powerful than the Galaxy S6 lite graphically
Btw, I've been here yesterday saying my sky was not working well, but today it β¨magicallyβ¨works well. I dunno if it was because I I restarted my phone or a game booster that I downloaded in the morning, but finally I can walk without looking like my skykid had a stroke
π krill?
oop doesnt show anything oh well 
No, just myself. The terrify of not playing sky anymore made me in here
I can recommend a booster, but it's ad filled
Tell me
Brb
