METAL SLUG X for Negative User Reviews

Doesn't save! Terrible controls.Iphone 6 owner. Terrible controls to the point where skill matters not. It's clear the designers realized this, which is why you start with literally 20 credits... Poor frame rate. When s$&# hits the fan, the gameplay is awful. Worst of all, no matter how far you get, if you quit the app you will have to start from the very beginning almost every time. Progress is NOT saved. That's ludicrous to me. So basically you have to set aside 2 hours of your day if you want to try to beat the game... Just plain stupid. I'd like my dollar back....Version: 1.0.1

SNK needs to update. Game not working anymore!I grew up playing these games. I enjoy them but ever since the IOS 11 updates now these games don’t work anymore. I tried to go on the developers website and that was a waste of time. Biggest run around ever. I hoping that by writing this review maybe Apple can help reach out. Otherwise give me a refund I paid for these games..Version: 1.0.1

Difficult NostalgiaI used to love these games, but it seems the controls on the iPhone versions just take out the fun aspect of them. Maybe update the thumb stick design? It’s making me wish I never bought this thing..Version: 1.3

Fun game that needs to be updatedI really wish I could play this with the new iPad Pro with a faster processor. The iPhone version is laggy when there is too much action going on..Version: 1.0.1

Great game, but multi doesn't workPlease fix the Bluetooth multiplayer it's been 2 years without a fix it about time to since people are still buying it!!!.Version: 1.0.1

Awful framerate on ipad air 2The frame rate goes to something like 5fps during large explosions and segments with the slug gattling guns making the game appear to run in slow motion. Ridiculous that an ipad air 2 cant run this properly sort your port out, my ps1 still runs this game better..Version: 1.0.1

Excellent versionBut, poor controls. Having a fixed virtual stick means difficult play. Really lets the game down. This said, if you're not bothered about this kind of control mechanism then the game is excellent. I am....Version: Ver.1.00

Great game ruined by poor controls.The fixed thumb stick location and poor controls really prevent this game being as good as it could be. Aiming and facing the right direction can be a struggle when things get a bit busy. Boxed 4:3 ratio I can live with for originality sake. Having the option to go full screen would be nice. It's not exactly cheap, and SNK have never been wallet friendly, but they really need to get some developers to update the controls to be mobile friendly. 5/5 game 3/5 controls Dear SNK - please release Last Resort on all the modern platforms..Version: 1.0.1

Worst controlsThe controls are all over the place.Version: 1.3

Fun game, god-awful controlsPlease, for the love of god, fix the movement joystick. Make it bigger and make it where your character doesn't stop moving if you slide your finger off the lever when you're trying to run. Because of the horrible control design , it's almost impossible to beat that huge column-jaw robot thing on level 2 without dying 20 times. Fix the controls, and I'll give you 5 stars..Version: 1.0.1

All wrong.When I first found this game on iTunes, I was ecstatic, my childhood game that I used to play all the time was finally available to me through an app. But when I started to play it went downhill fast. First, it's not even optimized for the iPhone 6 so the game itself looks smaller, and second of all its extremely laggy for some reason. It takes him longer than it should just to jump, and the music is awful sounds like someone's who's tone deaf was autotuned. Smh. Please fix these things, make it better..Version: 1.0.1

Don’t buy this! Buy Neo-Geo ACA version instead!Don’t spend your money on this, Neo-Geo Arcade Archives (ACA) version is better. This hasn’t been updated in a long time and a waste of money..Version: 1.4.2

Cool butThis game is really fun I’ve been trying laying it for a while but the controls are too small they need to be a bit bigger please fix that cause I have a hard time playing cause sometimes I can’t even tap the control and I end up dying please make the controls bigger.Version: 1.4.2

HorribleBad controls and bluetooth multiplayer does not work.Version: 1.0.1

Controller support limitedControllers are supported however there is no button mapping for the grenade. This means the game is essentially unplayable with an attached controller, please allow remapping buttons or support the grenade on any controller enabled button!.Version: 1.4.2

This game needs to be fixed immediatelyI’ve been running into a problem when I reset the virtual joysticks. I clicked reset and now the joysticks are way smaller than before and they’re stuck like that. This is the worsts glitch ever, click reset and now you can’t play because the size of the joystick won’t go back to normal..Version: 1.4.2

Metal slug 4At the start of each game, I bought the bundle they controls all set up in a weird way and when going to key configuration to adjust only a few controls move and not all of them even when making them smaller they don’t move places at all I don’t know if it’s just my game or phone but want to get feed back on it because this game good.Version: 1.3

Not compatibleNot compatible with iOS 11, SNK needs to update this game..Version: 1.0.1

Can barely even play itI was very excited when I saw this ported to iOS. For me, It was a no brainier to get it immediately. This had nostalgic value to me, and was definitely worth it for the price. However I can't even play it; the lag and the controls are really poor. There is a 2-4 sec delay on anything I do. I just uninstalled it as soon as that happened. Running on a iPhone 6 plus.Version: 1.0.1

Bad d pad controlThe thing is, the control was fine when It first got out on my iPhone 5. Now the d pad position reset if the thumb go too far away from the predefined area. This really make the game very hard to control. (To get a feeling of how the d pad should behaved, test out the game robbery bob). The other review is wrong about the video aspect ratio. You can change the setting in-game..Version: 1.0.1

Needs work, don't waste your money.Bluetooth multiplayer function doesn't work, read online people were having difficulty with it, tried it anyway and they were right. There's copy ports by individuals available that are better than this..Version: 1.0.1

The last update is not workingThank you for the game I use to love it and play for hours but now the game not working right since the controls don’t work please fix it I pay for this game and would love to play again. It’s the same problem with the 2 3 x.Version: 1.3

Bad controlGood game but the control is so bad player barely moves can you pls fix this or refund my money.Version: 1.4.2

Not working any more!!!I bought this metal slug park years ago and now I can’t play it after iOS 11... Refund my money!.Version: 1.0.1

HorribleVery disappointed control figuration is horrible very difficult to move the jump and granade button and ur limited I want the jump button on the right side of the screen not on the left but u can’t move it past the middle… didn’t even bother playing waste of money.Version: 1.3

They haven’t fixed controllers compatibilityThey should warn people that this game is not compatible with controllers, they shouldn’t be selling this game if you can’t use controllers with it. You won’t be able to throw bombs to your enemies in the game..Version: 1.4.2

I want to love thisI really want to love this, the game is awesome but the emulation is sub-par, with wildly inconsistent frame rates and the touch controls simply don't work. If the emulation is made better this will gain a better rating and I will play it more. I can't really recommend it otherwise.Version: 1.0.1

Bomb button not supported!!!Bomb button doesn’t work with Bluetooth controllers. ☹️ I tried it with at least two controllers and nothing..Version: 1.4.2

IPhone X and controlsGreat games but would definitely appreciate an update for the iPhone X. Also an update to the controls especially the joystick..Version: 1.0.1

Can’t throw bombs using MFI ControllerWould be a 5 star game but can’t throw bombs using an MFI controller on any of the Metal Slug Games. Can shoot and jump but nothing happens when I hit the bomb throwing button. Please fix all games. Thank you..Version: 1.3

?Whens the update lol people paid for this and cant play.Version: 1.3

Fix the controlsI love this game but now I can’t even play it bc the controls are all stupid for the iPhone XS Max the sticks to move are on top of the fire buttons & u can’t fix it to have the sticks on one side & the fire grenade buttons on the other side Pls pls update it to fix this issue favorite mobile game & I can’t even fookn play.Version: 1.3

Grenade doesn’t work with SteelseriesSuch a downer that I had to use the touch screen to throw grenades..Version: 1.3

Fix This!!I bought the game like 2 years ago and absolutely loved it. Everything about it I enjoy. Now however, I tried playing it again after quite some time to relieve that joy I felt. Much to my surprise, I found the keypad all messed up and out of place. So I was like “no big deal, I’ll just go to settings and fix it”. IT DID NOT ALLOW ME TO FIX AND REORGANIZE THE KEYPAD. Every single button was out of place to the point where the game was unplayable. And worst of all, it still won’t allow me to move them around. PLEASE FIX THIS!! I have an iPhone X. Take care of your game..Version: 1.3

Good game but...I love this game from the 1st one all the way to last one but can the developer update it to the iOS 11 because now I can’t play it because of the update please help it’s the only thing I like playing.Version: 1.0.1

Metal Slug XThe games is good just the controls are not good. If the controls were a lot better I would give it a 5 star. But sadly it does not give the fit..Version: 1.4.2

Broken controller buttonsThe bomb button doesn’t work with DualShock 4..Version: 1.3

UpdatePayed for the app as I love the game. But now it won’t work on the latest apple system..Version: 1.0.1

Don’t botherControls are slow to respond at the best of times. Often won’t jump when pressed, turn the correct way etc. Waste of time.Version: 1.3

Cant move buttons from screenKey configuration needs to be updated. I can’t move “C” & “A” away from the center of the screen which makes it so hard to play the game since my fingers are always in the middle of the screen to access those buttons. I think the app needs to be updated. Playing on an iphone 11promax.Version: 1.3

IPhone X and iOS 11IPhone X and iOS 11.Version: 1.0.1

Upgrade the Controls!I just bought all the series of Metal Slug in my iTouch to have fun just as the fun I used to experience when I played it in my childhood, but the controls of these games are not easy to handle. I am struggling more with my fingers than the with the soldiers. Upgrading the controls would definitely get rid off the one star to a five star... Please make it happen!.Version: 1.0.1

Controls and Bluetooth doesn't work properlyThe controls needs to be fixed. I keep dying like 10+ times before I can finish a mission. I'm having a hard time jumping and shooting. Game also lags a bit when shooting too much. I also can't play with a friend through Bluetooth. Name appears for a split second and then disappears. Please fix these issues..Version: 1.0.1

Great games ruined by poor controlsThe tiny onscreen joypad is basically useless when things get heavy. Having the whole left side of the screen as a joypad would be infinitely better. Also the grenade button doesn’t work when using a Bluetooth controller. This is the same for all of the Metal Slug series. A small tweak of the above would make the game perfect!.Version: 1.3

Controller control is broken!Come on how hard is to fix the controls lol why can I throw a grenade come on fix it don’t be lazy 😂.Version: 1.3

Great with some problemsThe game itself is fun and the controls work well for mobile, but it's a lot slower than it is on the metal slug anthology pack. I'd give it 5 stars if the lag problem was fixed..Version: 1.0.1

Poor controlsControls are unresponsive.Version: 1.0.1

Dreadful controlsUnplayable.Version: 1.0.1

Multiplayer has problems connectingWhen you start the matching start it gives trouble connecting to the other player but otherwise the overall gameplay is good.Version: 1.0.1

Multiplayer false advertisingThe game itself is a modern classic. The problem is that the Bluetooth does not work. I have an iPhone 6 plus and iPad Air 2. None of the metal slug games work on multiplayer. It really is false advertising. Has anyone gotten it to work?.Version: 1.0.1

Needs an update for modern devicesThis game could really use an optimization update to make it run better. The screen is too small and the touch screen controls seem unresponsive at times. Hopefully SNK or Dotemu can refresh this classic game..Version: 1.3

Rip-offThis game is a scam. The controllers don't work, and if you want to change the settings the game won't let you change anything so you can have different way to control the characters. They need to update how to control a the characters and make the controllers not so big cuz it covers the hole screen.Version: 1.3

Control issueI like that this game is remastered as an app for my phone. However, I'd feel better for my purchase if they controls would be fixed. The movement stick doesn't allow for my finger to move out of the range without stopping the character. The range of movement should be expanded or else I'm playing a game where I'm trying to move and get flanked with grenades because my character stops moving..Version: 1.0.1

Good Game, Bad Control, Not Really iPhone 5 OptimizedWasted $3.99. Poor control ruins everything the game could otherwise offer. Also it has thick borders around the main screen so the real area for displaying the game only has the size for iPhone 4 and such. Disappointed I wish SNK will give me back the money..Version: Ver.1.00

Refund requestI purchased the Metal Slug Pack Bundle and have just found out it doesn’t work on any update after IOS 8. I would like a full refund. Thankyou..Version: 1.0.1

ControlsThe buttoms is really hard to adjust in iphon X cant really play it :(.Version: 1.3

Great Potential But Terrible ControlsListen to the reviews, they are correct on ALL metal slug games 1-X. The controls are terrible for this game. In easy mode this game functions, but there are critical levels that require simultaneous movement like diagonal shooting or jumping and shooting at the same time. The way touchscreen works on phones make it difficult to have 3 buttons pushed at the same time to execute this, limiting you to only 2 movements at a time. To top it off, each metal slug does not work with my rotor riot plug in controller. It works with every other game except this one, so I’m stuck with terrible controls and the lack of compatibility with one that could potentially fix this issue..Version: 1.3

Apps needs updating ASAPThe games used to run fine but now since iOS 8 up they don’t work, I’m running iso11 and they don’t work at all. So don’t buy them till they update the games and if they don’t I’ll be asking for a refund. Tho when they did work they worked good.Version: 1.0.1
