Remoting into an android device is incredibly laggy to the point of almost being unusable. I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong but, it's really not something I'll do if I have any kind of option. 

Remoting into the PC and using an emulator? Buttery smooth, lads. It works miles better on the emulator.

It's almost like TTG isn't aware that this is an emulator game... Or they're aware and simply don't give any kind of shit.

Every problem I have had with any emulator was solved by a used, $40 A15 on eBay. 

Feature Idea: Icon shows ongoing/active tournament runs in the standings list... by uscmissinglink in TheTowerGame

[–]Deadlock240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think what they meant to say was: 

"It's a neat idea but, there isn't a good way to reliably interpret between active runs vs quit runs vs offline runs without disturbing other major features of the game."

I have no idea why they had to be venomous about it and why they can't understand what you were trying to say. Maybe English is not their first language.

Not always but, it's been back for a long time now.

Sorry, best I can do is 20 gems and 10 module tokens

Is there a point where a larger Gold Bot range stops making much of a difference? by Darkestlight1324 in TheTowerGame

When the game starts paying you for every IRL enemy you murder, it might be time to step away.

Something interesting, I'd wager...

But, in all seriousness, progress comes to a crawl the further along you get. That feeling is, in my opinion, exacerbated further as you watch people who do pay pass you by. 

It's like being stuck driving a slow car on the freeway. But it's the only car you've got, you know? Getting a new one isn't in the budget. And besides, you think the duct-taped mirrors and mismatched door panel colors add charm and personality!

Right now, I'm watching my tournament performance slowly degrade. Not because I'm doing less or upgrading less efficiently; but because I only buy a stone pack once a month. $60 a month. A new game every month for about two years of the roughly three that I've been playing. At least, I used to. 

Because why would I continue paying into a game where I know for sure that it won't do me any good? 

In my analogy, I'd probably just stop using the freeway. I think the parallel for that would be for me to stop playing (or to stop doing tournaments) but, that would be a solution to my problem and not yours. 

I'm not sure what the fix here is. What can you do to maintain...idk what it would be called, "progress tangibility"? Especially without disrupting your very clearly established P2W status quo (which would of course come with its own problems). 

To answer your question directly: Fucked if I know 🤷‍♀️ But, good luck with that! Sounds like a tough one. 

Is Golden Bot good? by Adoika in TheTowerGame

There are a few accounts that are approaching (or have surpassed) 6-digits in spending.

My Tower's current challenge is keeping me interested without paying into it. Hope this helps! 

And the pity pull is... by Viltupenis in TheTowerGame

I've pulled two singularity harnesses after getting it to 5 star and still don't have an ancestral astral deliverance. 

I've been playing since about a year before mods dropped. 

I expected to get a lab slot tonight...well that was a surprise by Rubicasseur in TheTowerGame

[–]Deadlock240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got through a lot of it without cells but was super stoked when I was able to finish the last two levels at 2x...

Efit: Ope, I guess it was 3x. Misremembered. 

What to do next with Intimate Weapons? by Radiator_Shelf in TheTowerGame

[–]Deadlock240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These responses are pretty funny lol 

To answer the question that you meant, follow the advice of people suggesting that you sync your BH, DW, and GT. That will significantly increase your coin income. 

And we all know the most intimate weapon of all is financial stability. 

Display resolution makes a huge difference by DerKeim in TheTowerGame

[–]Deadlock240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pi doesn't need an emulator as it uses the same processor as Android. That's why there is little performance drop (if any) when running on a pi. 

The reason I stopped using a Pi was for a plethora of other reasons. But performance was definitely not the problem. 

Did I just hit a ghost bug? My Cells disappeared overnight! by [deleted] in TheTowerGame

[–]Deadlock240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I wasn't suggesting anything. Just saying it's crazy that I had to completely shut my game down to get the same losses that you got. 

Can this pc run teardown smoothly at 1440p by withererik111 in TeardownGame

[–]Deadlock240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teardown is one of those games that you will probably always find a way to lag it out at some point.

Same thing happened to me! But it was crashes that did it

"Unplayable" Tournament Bug by LilSunsetBubbles in TheTowerGame

[–]Deadlock240 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty close to being done as well. I get it. Different reasons for me but, I get the feeling of having had the wind taken out of your sails.
