Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
We have won a couple matches and have loved being able to have both the buttons and the automatic firing system all right there on the screen, we wish call of duty mobile version would have that but it doesn't so oh well, we would also like to mention that this is a really good graphic type of game and also people may jump and slide around really fast acting like their good at the game but they really aren't in fact they aren't good and honestly all depends on your own strategy on how your to take someone down but in the end this is a awesome fun game.
It didnt have grenades But its still good.
This game is amazing, we love the graphics, the gameplay, and the fact that we have real guns and not the R-9- we mean rerun but Im holding out for a character with a grappling hook ability. We love grappling hooks in games, it addictive to just go GRAPPLING HOOK! And spider-man swing out of a situation, or swing into one to back up the squad.
Farlight 84 is . Ive played battler royales for a while. Fortnite. Apex Legends. But, this Farlight 84 is wayyyy better than both Fortnite and Apex Legends. Since we dont have any consoles or PC currently. Im glad it was on mobile. And, we feel like it was the best way for us personally to get into trying out Farlight 84. Our own experience of mobile versions of shooters helped us get better at the games. Before getting into them on console or PC. What a shame tho that its not on console yet. But we love this game. We couldnt say the same for Fortnite or Apex Legends. Apex was better than Fortnite. But, Farlight just stole the spotlight and main stage with this one. Anybody complaining about crashes or not being able to log in. Sounds like more of your own connection or potentially have an older phone that cant support the game. Because ours works 100% perfectly fine.
We really love this game so much the graphics, gameplay, and overall experience are amazing. Our only issue is that whenever we play on our iPhone 7, especially during combat, the game sometimes minimizes by itself. Then we have to reopen it and wait for it to load again, which can be frustrating in the middle of a fight. Please fix this issue on iPhone 7 or any other devices that may have the same problem. Once thats fixed, the game will be absolutely perfect.
We truly want to thank the creator of this game for caring so much about its players. The free rewards are awesome, the features are excellent, the atmosphere is amazing for a game, and more. This game is so good that we cant even fully describe it. Im really grateful to the support team and the developer of this game.
This game is really awesome. We hardly have issues with it. Its unique in its own ways, and we love the remake of characters. But am we missing something ? How come we cant use our backbone. It shows in the backbone app. But we cant get it to work. Please assist.
Its like Fortnite but better we like how you get to play with your friends.
We cant even play the game because every single time we download it is the press on the app so we can try to play. It takes us back to our home screen cant even play it. We do not like this game us out.
This games a diva its like prime apex but more in there prime 10/10 must play.
Game all round just amazing but you guys should add more maps and characters and maybe more costumes other then that more maps please!! Thank you for bringing a this game to us! Please please bring solos we cant stress this enough Im tired of playing with these random people and they move on the own and not get the concept of working as a team please please add solos.
Its so great and the update is amazing we are so amazed.
Having it a big download takes for ever but love the new update its that we wish it can have less time to log in and play.
The game gotten better since the old update . We think now it should have its fair share of stepping into some k-pop collab since this season focus on Chinese content hope they implement more stuff like that more often.
Te recomiendo jugarlo es divertido y las grficas son hermosas.
Since new update it keeps exiting game at random idk if its our older version iPad or what.
The new global relaunch is everything Ive wanted from the game in the last 2 years. We believe you guys have finally hit big with your game second only to the very first time you released your game! The FPP mode is amazing and we love all the animations and how smooth it feels to play for us + we know they all the other characters will be re-worked and tweaked to have their animations and gameplay work in FPP as well! We love all the extra additions and skins and new battle pass and we think the rest of the community does too! And WE LOVE THE JETPACK ARCADE MODE! We pray you guys bring it back to Ranked because a lot of people are still weird and wont play until that is the case! But the main problem that is simultaneously causing your game to hit a hard issue is the removal of controller support and Cross-play. The removal of console support has pushed away majority of your current player base old and new who were just playing a week before the update! Including some of our friends who were looking forward to it! And now, we cannot play with our friends on PC and they cant play with us and our friends who play on mobile have to play like us on mobile instead of being able to use their controllers where they feel comfortable playing. Additionally there is an issue where frames drop severely in some matches with crazy in game lag, we know you all will take note of performance issues but we still wanna let you all know! Please listen and add back Controller Support and Cross-play! We love this game and have been playing since it came out the first time and we LOVE IT NOW! We hope our Review could provide some insight to how the community feels right now and help with what you next step should be soon! And we apologize on behalf of how needy and unappreciative the community can be because you guys do all you can and it has paid off.
Please fix controller support and by fix it we mean, could you guys make it better to where if we move our joystick a little bit Im not flying across the map and fix it so were able to properly use the controller. We love the new first person update we really do and we hope this game makes it. Ill even buy hacks upon packs upon packed skins upon skins whatever just please listen to us.
We doubted farlight 84. We didnt agree to removing jet packs, but this update will be amazing. They are filling the void of apex mobile which we appreciate.
We have been playing Farlight 84 for so long in IOS with our xbox controller ! This has been our main game to play ! Now this update came with no controller support in mobile ! Please let us know about the removal ! Mobile controller players are disappointed ! Please add the support.
Esta nueva actualizacin le dio un nuevo comienzo a Farlight es simplemente hermosa.
A really good game for mobile honestly fun but we wish there was a option for controller. Otherwise 10/10 nothing else wrong.
We really enjoy this game – devs have improved from day one. Credit to listening to player feedback, as well! However, after iOS 26, the game runs so slowly and so delayed in response to input making it unplayable. We cant find the source of the issue either. Ive reduced graphics and frame rate, but nothing changes. We also find it doesnt save our emote wheel either for some reason. Whats going on?? Help, please.
Overall, we love the game and we do enjoy it and since we cant play Apex on mobile anymore, and we dont really like Fortnite this is close enough for us , the only dislike that we have is that every time we play at least three matches once we get to the fourth one we start getting kicked out repeatedly. Ive done all the updates Ive even taken it so far as to delete the app and re-download it. There are a lot of bugs and things that still need to be fixed we still enjoy it wholeheartedly, but if we can make a 2nd suggestion, Can we have different maps besides the same 2 ?! Like it would be nice to be able to choose other options when we first started playing there was one major map that we enjoyed and it hasnt been on here since the first major update. Im pretty sure when we say theres a lot of other people would agree as well.
Bring back controller support we cant play without it.
Please add mobile controllers back for mobile players please.
Pls can you fix the gyro scope problem our phone is iPhone X pls fix it immediately pls.
We love Farlight, but only having squad mode is frustrating. Too often, we get stuck with random teammates who dont communicate or contribute, and Im left carrying the whole match. Duos and solo modes would give players more control over their gameplay, letting us compete without relying on teammates who arent on the same level. Many other shooters have these options, and adding them would make Farlight much more fun and competitive for everyone.
We loved this game when we found it over a year ago. We used to play on controller, however after taking a long break its no longer controller compatible. This game was refreshing and Im jealous of the new updates. Please make it controller compatible again.
La accin de que jugadores con computadora y jugadores con celular jugarn juntos la quitaron y tiene demasiados bots y gente tramposa.
Why is there no controller support.
Bonne exprience de jeu dans lensemble mais trop de bug. Le son par exemple disparat ce nest pas du tout agrable.
We love the game but when Im in a match it lags us out that would make it much better.
The hero power system is so flawed. Im tired of being penalized for winning and Great games. 15 kills. And a win should not equal negative hero power.
Add controller support for mobile im tryna play ts wit our controller instead of on da game cmon now.
Im so confused, we used to use a PlayStation controller on our iPhone now it does t detect anything except screenshots. Ive tried every controller we have.
You know the devs are desperate when they have to release the game twice and both versions being worse than the beta. New version comes out and surprise no controller support they did the same thing with the jetpacks. Devs cant take a hint and not remove the things that make the game enjoyable.
Cant connect Xbox controller iPad Pro 2nd gen 19in.
The game is amazing this update really brought back life to the game.. Tho we face a manger problem every so often, we get kick from the game. The game does not lag yet mid fight we get kicked. We have a iPhone XR pls fix this problem. We love the game and would have to play it to its fullest potential.
Maybe soon, but for right now we cannot seem to find a way to play with our Razer Kishi Ultra because Farlight84 cannot detect it. Otherwise we enjoyed what little we could have of the game and its delightfully smooth excellent work.
When we move our joystick or the camera slowly it doesn't respond until we speed up our finger ….. We're using iPad pro 2020 …. Please fix it.
Before the update controller was fine now it doesnt even register it at all please fix love the game tho great update.
Where is the support for controls, please add it as soon as possible.
Solid platform but without skill based matchmaking, it is NOT inviting to newer players. Rank doesnt even matter if Im going against the best players anyway. We want to enjoy this one but leaning towards uninstalling.
Keep crashing when playing normal matches hardly a couple mins in then the app just closes, we even put our graphics and stuff on low but still.
There is way too many bots in each game. The game play itself is really fun, but would be better if the lobbies were full of more real people rather than 90% bots. Simply make matching times longer, Im sure most would agree that having more real people would be an enjoyable experience. Also its not a player base problem as this problem is only now, as the previous versions were fine (even with less overall players).
We need controller support please.
Our game keeps crashing EVREY time we get in a game nonstop,the game is good but this is just unacceptable.
Game is firereminds us of apex mobile and we like how the developers put thought into the game Ive spent many many hours playing.
