thebitingcat's reply to "What technically causes dropped taps?" was just promoted to the most useful! Ceegers and 2 other people think it's one of the best replies.

To clarify those points:
1. You tap outside of the tap zone, tap the case, accidentally double tap, or do something to cause the hardware to misinterpret your actions, ie. Release a hold and tap a tapper simultaneously can make the hardware react like you slid your finger across the area.

2. On Extreme tracks, when two tappers in adjacent rows are near simultaneous, and your reaction to the first is both slightly late and inside of an overlapped tap area, the game logic will sometimes assign the first tap to the second tapper. Though you are still within the grace period for the first tapper the game assumes that your first tap was intended for the next tapper to reach the tap line. You can compensate by tapping slightly sooner, playing far wider with outside lanes, or waiting for the next release which hopefully will have added the single line of code that's in my head that would fix the issue but not affect the way the game plays for people who need the tap zones to overlap.

Also, to avoid issues from occuring too often, plug in instead of using battery power. Game response time improves, and little 'hiccups' that have thrown off perfectly timed taps will disappear, thus improving your score.

Wait, why am I not able to find this? Did they really make the contract for it only a couple weeks long?

just because I happen to be looking at this and know why...

These devices only detect up to five different touches at a time. Why Tapulous has ignored that fact I don't know lol.

DEFINITELY need a not-downloaded-yet separation.

Ceegers replied on November 02, 2009 20:42 to the problem "Metallica is just.... unfinished" in Tapulous:

I agree that this game is very droppy. Playing TTR3, it's a lot better than I expected actually, probably about as good as TTR2. Playing Metallica, it's dropping for me, even on Medium (that's right, 3-lane tracks too)! Now, I do have a 1st gen ipod still, but come on, if TTR3 is good, why the heck is Metallica not? It's not like it's been a long time since TTR3 came out.

I haven't played much, but I totally noticed this already as well. Pretty sure it happened on both extreme and hard for me...

Ceegers replied on October 08, 2009 23:09 to the problem "TTR3 - "3" for 3 years-old kids?" in Tapulous:

gosh, this is not very encouraging... maybe I won't download the game...
I said when they were first mentioned that I would hate the avatars, and I've got a feeling that on my 1st gen, this game is gonna be just as laggy and droppy as ttr2, if not more than it... not to mention it would really cost me $6, as I haven't gotten system 3 yet (due to having heard sucky things about that as well)

you don't HAVE to use the 16x strategically... just like you don't have to tap for green – Ceegers, on October 07, 2009 05:27
