Hi all, I am using an Android 3.0 Xoom and just updated Restaurant Story on it and noted a few things. It now has a screen shot button and a new invite option based on email. These are fine, bit of a non-issue for me though. What is an issue is there are now these expand arrows at the outer edges of my restaurant, I don't really like it, prefer the grass and trees but I can live with it.
What is annoying is that the scrolling in moving the view of the restaurant around seems to have gotten broken. It now stutters frequently and seems to run into hard stops frequently and doesn't easily show the whole of the restaurant now. Most glaring is that the top corner can be seen when you first get into the game but if you scroll to another place to collect tips or whatever, it doesn't scroll back up fully. So if I want to cook something (I have some of my appliances up there), I can still see them mostly but I'm not sure I'll see the icon for the food if it's spoiled or finished. I'll likely have to exit the game and come back into deal with those or move everything around.
I also can't see more than halfway up the walls in the corner, again if I want to change the decorations there I'll likely have to log out and come back in to change or see them properly.
Another change that I found was that the leaving of tips now has a coin sound, cute but it could get annoying I think, but I was able to turn off the sound effects and that stopped that. However, another part to the tipping aspect is that a separate star now bounces up from the table and you can click on it to get another point to your star rating. I'm not sure if before we got two points or just one, but if we got two points for tipping, can you put it back to not having that star. If it's extra we can ignore it if we want to if it's too annoying, but having more things to tap on wasn't what I was looking for in this.
And we still have those ads popping up constantly right in the middle of tipping or collecting tips or whatever in this and in FS, can we get the timer for that showing up made real long or better yet take out those ads so that we see them at startup only?
