I don't know how they would implement it. But if they could make the Coliseum more mobile friendly that'd be great.

There's waaaaaaaaaaaaaay more important stuff they need to be working on than a mobile version of a browser game.

Besides, I can play FR better on my phone than I can on my laptop, half the time. The coliseum's faster, even.

I understand this isn't the case for everyone, but FR isn't a mobile game. We're lucky it uses HTML5 instead of Flash. You can access the games from mobile which would be harder or in some cases impossible on some devices were they Flash. How well the site works on mobile pertains more to the capabilities of your device, rather than FR. In these cases nothing can be done about it unless you want to get a better mobile device. I have 0 problems with the site accessing from my Galaxy phone and Nook tablet. I support mobile tweaks very far in the future. There's too much they have to do right now.

It'd be nice if there wasn't so much click and drag. Is there a way to do that on a phone?

As someone who's done a little web design and has posted previously on this same topic in the past, I'll just submit that coding for mobile is easier if you plan for it from the start, not add it retroactively. You avoid a lot of problems that way. Concurrent development is generally standard with how popular mobile platforms are now, anyways.

So support. It really wouldn't take much at this point- just sort out the click/drag features and the hover text, I believe? Especially the hover text and pop up boxes, which are essentially useless and often in the way on mobile. Redesign the placement of their information? As for games/coli... With how varied the problems are across multiple devices, I think it'd be wise to poke at the code and see if it needs sorting out for all platforms, including web. That's a whole different kettle of fish, though.

I don't support, sorry. I don't want a mobile simplified version on my fav game. As I use old iPad it's having more lags every year, but I still very greatful I can use full browser version.

@turnoroid they don't mean like an app, they mean a more mobile-friendly site. Currently it's very difficult (and most of the time impossible) to use the coliseum and fairgrounds on mobile.


@dahelmang you can download Puffin, which with the mouse feature can click and drag easily

@Shinyumbreon
Coli has lags on my super new computer too :D and as for fairgrounds I don't know about other ones, but Artifacture works very well on my old mobile and even more old iPad.

[/quote] [color=#31456b] I think the only feature on FR that involves clicking and dragging is re-arranging apparel and lairs-- some phones can do this, some can't, it's usually a restriction with the phone itself. Most older phones (and a lot of newer ones too) don't handle this feature
