Talk:Version 1.14/@comment-5355974-20120823081027

Moving my initial reaction to the update from Version to here:

So far so good with the Android update. I went from 1.12.1 to 1.14. (I held off on 1.13) Here are some changes that are immediately obvious to me. They may or may not be new to you if you were on 1.13:

POSITIVE

1) The "hungry dino" icon that appears above habitats is smaller/less intrusive

2) The Social Gifting feature does not require you to be connected to Facebook.

3) A "tier" icon is located next to the biome icon of each dino (at least the ones in your habitat) so you can easily tell which tier it belongs to

4) The "Zzz" above idle shops is also smaller (same size as "hungry dino" icon)

5) Successfully chaining results in words of encouragement

6) The expansion menu now has two buttons, one offering to expand in x amount of time for y amount of gold and a second offering to expand instantly for z amount of crystals

7) Significant performance improvement on my device while chaining! I'm experiencing so much less lag/freezes that would often result in broken chains.

8) When your dinos level up, the splash screen that comes up containes two buttons: "Fusion" and "Continue." If your dino is less than lvl 4, the Fusion button is greyed out.

NEGATIVE (Could be unique to my instance or my device)

1) While visiting other villagers in my newsfeed, traveling between villages is very slow. It's literally taking minutes, however, this could be a temporary issue. I'll update this if the situation changes.

UPDATE: This could be because my newsfeed is extremely long. I did not clear my newsfeed since 1.13 was released so that I could tip back everyone I was unable to tip. My wife has a much shorter newsfeed and is not experiencing the lag/freezes that I am.

More to come...
