Fledgling Fyora u2vini Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Hello all, After playing Avadon and Avernum on my android i must say those were a hidden diamond to me. Anyone knows if there are any plans to release more android versions? Vini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 any fu you're plans I see you're using it to post as well. Anyway, I haven't seen Jeff announcing future Android ports officially anywhere. After the Avadon release, he actually said it would take great outside support (as from Humble Bundle for Avadon) to do it again. nikki. and springacres 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fledgling Fyora u2vini Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 Lol, "fu you're" means "future", damn autocorrects :) Very good articles (both), gives lot of perspective for a simple mortal as i springacres 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnificent Ornk Aran Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 You really don't want to type on a mobile device without automation though; it's pretty awkward. (Personally, I use the swipe-gesture thing.) Of course, they're all prone to errors like in the topic title. Anyway, just saw Jeff literally calling Android "the opposite of Batman" in the comment section of that post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So... is an android? My biggest problem with autocorrect on my iDevices is that since I type so badly and so frequently, words now get "corrected" into complete garbage.

Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Having used tiny QWERTY keyboards on phones, they're still too small and too error-prone for my stubby fingers. I'm hoping for direct neural interface (I hear that once we master mind-machine interfaces we get helicopters!) but I'll settle for subvocalizing with accurate dictation software. —Alorael, who ideally wants to interface with the internet over his phone while his car drives itself.

Magnificent Ornk Student of Trinity Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 I regularly send texts in English and German, and although switching languages is just a single quick tap, I often forget. A surprising number of common words in either language seem to be accepted by autocorrect as correct in the other, so I can get part way through a text before being surprised. On the other hand I often need to include some German words in my English texts. In fairness, I probably cause autocorrect a lot more stress and grief than it causes me.

Well-Actually War Trall Cairo Jim Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 Autocorrect drives me nuts. I turn it off when possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Jerakeen Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 (edited) I use predictive text instead of autocorrect, which works pretty well for saving keystrokes and seldom causes embarrassment. Swiftkey will suggest words even before I type anything in; for amusement I will sometimes pick a random letter and then take every suggested word until it starts to repeat. The results can be very surprising. Edited December 17, 2013 by Jerakeen Good morning my love for the first time in the UK and Ireland and the pharmaceutical industry showed up at the moment but I certainly don't want to be bothered to do it for you to the left side of the major religions have as their backbone of wealth BMA and Dikiyoba 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
