- [R12] Call of Duty® Just don’t become a Good player. Or you will be blocked: You will be paired only with Bots while the opposite team is full of modded accounts. (I.E. in a 10v10, your team til be 2 real players and 8 bots who just shoot at the sky or stand in your face. While the opposite team is 6 real players and 4 bots.). Next, (in regular games, and not “Unlimited” games) After they make ONE kill they already h
- [R25] Call of Duty® Lot of Bots: Every time when new season starts the games is worst because of only boats are there to kill 🤣 it should be according to the our level of game
- [R37] Call of Duty® BOOTTTSSS: EVERY SINGLE UNRANKED GAME, there’s at least 2 BOTS THAT SELL YOUR GAME. NO MATTER HOW MUCH YOU CARRY THAT BOT HAS A 1-10 SCORE! FIX YOUR GAME STOP HAVING SO MUCH BOTS. THATS WHY YOUR GAME HAS LOST SO MUCH PLAYERS! NOBODY LIKES THESE BOTS
- [R21] Call of Duty® It used to be good: Been too commercialised, with no actual way to earn the ‘better’ weapons unless you pay. And don’t get me started on the number of times I’ve shot people in the head/chest to no effect, but a single punch from the ‘gloves’ or some stick means you die … Or, you’re not even being aimed at, but the bullets still find you anyway - even through walls. The game has become a bit of a
- [R22] Call of Duty® Dont play: This game is trash. Unplayable lobbies. Bad matchingmaking forces shipment way too much. Too many sweats for a casual gameplay. Pay to win. Bad all around. If you want a headache fine. If your going to make me lose the match by backfilling super sweats when im triple the score ahead then its just back out city
- [R28] Call of Duty® shotguns: Can y'all explain the logic on how a shotgun can kill w ONE SHOT but not the sniper? the amount of people w shotgun is absurd Yall need to do something about this cuz that makes no sense like?
- [R39] Call of Duty® Expensive and to many bots: I’ve been playing this since it first came out and have always found it expensive especially when it comes to the mythical items. Also playing on controller is a lot harder than playing on the screen ( I prefer controller as it’s more challenging)and it makes me laugh when screen players think there better because they play screen lmao. It would help if they could keep
- [R4] Call of Duty® Awesome but has a really bad flaw: the game play is great and fun in general but i really dont think it’s necessary to ban people for hopping off for example I accidentally turned of my phone and kicked me out my game and i got banned for really long and its not the first time really annoying needs to be removed
- [R50] Call of Duty® cod why: it bans u when u leave mid match and i had to hop off for a while and i got a 45 minute ban cuz i hopped off
- [R40] Call of Duty® Poor balance: The sense of matchmaking and gun releases is completely thrown. The DMZ mode is nothing more than streamer bait that casual play is impossible to enjoy. I’ve played the game for so long yet in a matter of days any progress you’ve made can disappear to buggy bots, unbalanced teams, and ridiculous odds. Despite doing research on how to improve, the messages to developers/feedback syste

- [R6] Call of Duty® Ranked Search & Destroy: Need to start rotating new maps for Ranked S&D , been 2years since All we get in new skins and core games it’s really annoying
- [R44] Call of Duty® Fix the map rotation system 😤: This game is starting to get so freaking annoying it only rotates 3 maps on team death match frontline and control.. yall need to fix that otherwise this game is going to get real old real fast its so annoying playing the same map 6 time back to back

- [R66] World War Heroes Excelente: Muy bueno
- [R68] World War Heroes Unbalanced: Overall this game is amazing . Really one of the best game out in the App Store. Unfortunately this game is if you have spend money in order to level out the playing field . All the online player which is every match have top of the line weapon upgrade . It’s unfortunate because I really like this game . These unbalanced player takes the fun out of this game I have a regular sniper or
- [R70] World War Heroes Longest game to load: This game takes too way too long to load fix it, please and you don’t have a lot of ammo with the guns
- [R71] World War Heroes Good: Love the game. It excites me
- [R80] Fortnite So fun: Fortnite is super fun i cant stop playing it finally found on ipad
- [R81] Fortnite Good experience but down side: So us mobile players have auto shoot but i don’t think its still balanced because we lag alot causing us to lose our games and its not fair because of lag so we should have more advantages like extra health or like anything we lag we get invincibility or a battle royale game mode that only allows mobile players so I’m going to rate it 3 stars also because in the batt
- [R82] Fortnite Anonymous (READ THIS EPIC): Epic games if you do not fix the bugs for people then I might just have to report you and also make this playable on iPhone Xr Good day
- [R83] Fortnite This game has one problem: This game is wonderful and fun to play when days get boring passes the time when needed too. Oh but that’s on my ps5. The reason why I downloaded this is so I can not miss sprite or random Fortnite events on road trips. The problem is, is that it’s REALLY LAGGY. And it happens even when I’m in a house that has WiFi it’s LAGGY and for some reason whenever I go to sinister

- [R94] Delta Force Backbone: Love the game but would love it even more if it was compatible with the backbone controller

- [R98] Delta Force Controller support!: Please add controller support I downloaded this game with controller support in mind.
- [R107] Arena Breakout Asco: Que asco de juego no hacen nada para las ratas que te roban el cuerpo del que mataste
- [R108] Arena Breakout Surprised: Didn’t know mobile games got this in-depth and offered this level of gaming
- [R109] Arena Breakout Game Impression: The game itself is good, it maintains a realistic stance despite being slightly casual, but there's a big 'but'. CIS gaming on CIS servers: players with over 100 million in storage (quite a lot), and you might think they play well, but no. CIS players only play defensively and camp (no one forbids this, but it's mostly only in CIS). CIS servers are a disgrace, and their component ch · translated
- [R110] Arena Breakout Used to be my favorite game:(: This game used to be my favorite game including consoles. I have been playing since S1. The lobbies are a graveyard. 70% of the time they are empty, or with just one other player. For multiple seasons useless skins keep getting added that will eat up your device’s storage. The gameplay now feels more similar to COD than the original Arena. Genuinely sad what the dev
- [R49] Call of Duty® Good but: Ty s game is good love every game mode but there is one problem with ptw it’s to ptw
- [R42] Call of Duty® Lagging like crazy. Had to close the app: Game is insanely lagging, had to close the app several times while in the game. Even when I don’t see any downloads going on, it’s still lagging. Will wait for the next update.
