There is a campaign and online, but they are linked in the same account (weapons, abilities, etc). What bothers me the most is that you must be online to play. I also do the campaign first then move onto multiplayer. According to what is already said, i dont expect mc5 to amaze me like mc3 and mc4 - im not even entirely sure to buy it (lower multiplayer modes, online only, not much general improvement or features, lame spec ops mode, etc.)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ozzmanj1:
Agreed, every previous MC game was about 12-13 months apart for each release. Until MC4... it came out in 12/12. So ... quite some time, hopefully this long wait will be worth it. Also unless I am mistaken I believe they stated no more IAP... hope this is so true.

I'm a big fan of Dead Trigger 2. I use the Sixaxis pair tool to use my PS3 controller along with using Slim Port to mirror to my HDTV. Even with thermal guard enabled my phone will reach extremely hot CPU temps. I've seen it go to 201°F where the shutoff temp is 203°F. Once it gets that hot the game lags like crazy. I have to set the phone up in front of a fan which cools it down to ~175°F and eliminates all lag. Still, even plugged in the battery drops from full charge to about dead in roughly 2 hours. :(
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] SpasilliumNexus:
I played until my battery died. I then put it on the charger and played some more until my phone cut off and the notification started blinking red, which is the first time I ever saw that happen on a Nexus device.

Apparently it means that I completely drained the battery, but holy crap is the game fun, especially with a Dual Shock 3 controller.

Dead Trigger 2 Ultra High Quality Graphics

Hi,

For those who have Dead Trigger 2 with Ultra High Quality setting available, does the game still run smoothly on your N5 ?

I must say that it is pretty bad during action scenes, not smooth and frame drops quite often but else it's just ok, not ultra smooth but no frame drops.

So could someone try that out ? (Else from Gormsen ^^ )

Maybe I had some throttling as I was installing a lot of apps before.

Real Racing 3 just beats every racing game Imo. Had Asphalt 8 but didn't like the cartoonish graphics. It was fun though for its arcade style. Riptide 2 is a must and Dead Trigger 2.

Modern Combat 4 is great but I played too much of it when I had my s4 ( I already prestiged) so I'm not installing it on my n5.

Have you noticed something though.. The playing time mentioned in the game's homescreen isn't being recorded correctly for me..

No. You need a working connection all the time even for offline single player missions. :(

It will need another 1gb may be in the future to download the remaining maps :D

Are you using the wireless dual shock 3 controller? Does it work on top games like MC5?? I've never used a controller to play a game on my Nexus 5.. would you recommend it now? Or are there any other alternatives like that?

I've seen many positive reviews about Moga as well.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] SpasilliumNexus:
I've never used any other controller so I can't really compare others. In order to use the Dual Shock you'll have to have root, use the Sixaxis Controller app, and turn on the Enable Gamepad option for the game to recognize it.

The game itself has a weird setup that you can't change unfortunately. Especially the 180 turn. When you do it, the scoreboard pops up in your face and you can't see anything.

Here's what it looks like. I'm guessing it's the MOGA controller as I haven't seen one before
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] akeem127:
On my Nexus 7 2013 the highest setting is "better graphics" and it looks MUCH better.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] vin4yak:
What all options are available on the Nexus 7 under GFX? There is no lag/stuttering/pixelating over here. I'm on ElementalX kernel, that surely makes a difference.

I think when the CPU Throttle kicks in, it starts to pixelate and stutter. I have occasional blurry pixels but only for a few seconds when there is a heavy fight scene.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] CyberScopes:
What but how? N5 only gets optimal as the highest graphics. Maybe it needs an update??
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] akeem127:
I dont know how. i figured that since N5 has higher end specs it would have that option as well. The only thing i can think of that really separates the two is the N7 has a higher resolution but it just doesnt make any sense.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] mowz9999:
MDC 5 disappointing

Modern Combat 5 was a little disappointing for me. The graphics on the nexus 5 suck compared to other devices with weaker SOC and the controller support is terrible. MDC 4 was better in my opinion.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] MakDroid:
I know its upto your personal preference but the way the have implemented the gameplay is really amazing! You can't ask for more to entertain you on the go! But there are few cons to the game like very bad voiceovers throughout the game. They just don't match the quality of gameplay MC5 offers. Other than that there is only one con I could think of and thats the need of downloading data for various levels while progressing in the game. You guys in developed country can download it in about 10 to 15 minutes but in my country(India), it takes about 2 hours as majority of Indians can afford just 512kbps connection!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] mowz9999:
As I said in my response the Graphics could have been better on the Nexus 5. My nexus 7(2013) has an option for higher graphics even though its using a s4 pro where as nexus 5 only has optimal but an Snapdragon 800 which does not make since. Also it does not have support for controllers where as MC4 had. The gameplay is fun but like I said I think the previous version was much better. But then again this is the first version and updates will probably address my problems. All in all I have bought almost every MC game so far but I still think MC4 was the best. Also the Internet Requirement is extremely inconvenient and I hope they take that out!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] MakDroid:
I don't think they would ever remove the requirement of internet connection.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bmakk2055:
Does mc5 force close on any of you at random times?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] XeLLaR*:
I have the feeling that MC5 stutters on my N5..as soon as i get into a gunfight the FPS goes below 20. Im rockin all-stock.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] mowz9999:
Yes I sometimes have the same problem. Hopefully they could address it in a future update!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] XeLLaR*:
Ok, so ive checked the CPU activity while ingame. It looks like only 2 Cores are running @ ~1,2-1,6Ghz...why would they do this for such a CPU demanding game? Thats BS!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] MakDroid:
Its still not optimized for our SoC. Hope so that future update addresses this issue.

If you are very much into Gaming, you can try out Trinity Kernel which forces all four cores to be active. It drains more battery but it won't affect that much.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] XeLLaR*:
That wont help most probably. If the game is not written with Quad-Multi-Thread support then the 2 extra cores wont help much since they remain unused. The developers at gameloft have to optimize lots of stuff...
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] SpasilliumNexus:
Yes it does and it is REALLY annoying in multiplayer. I stopped playing as much until it's fixed.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bmakk2055:

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Johmama:
Glad I found this thread, I was trying to find a place to ask.

Since the past page or two have been on MC5, maybe someone can help me. I've never played a MC before, and only recently started playing Asphalt 8. Do you think with future updates, MC5 will become more stable for the N5? Any possibility they'll remove the connection requirement? Should I just buy MC4 and not bother with MC5 (at least until I hear the issues have been ironed out)? Will the multiplayer for MC4 be alive for a while? Also consider I have a N7 flo.

EDIT:

Sorry, also wanted to mention that I'm using a PS3 controller and the Sixaxis app with it.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] vin4yak:
MC5 is pretty much stable! There are occasional force closes but not an issue for me. This will surely be fixed in future updates as many have reported this.

No, they won't! MC4 was a breeding ground for hackers and for people who used cracked apps. Staying connected all the time will surely bring down those numbers. IMO, it's a good thing. :)

If I were you, I would buy both the games! Both are fantastic and are worth every penny. However, if you're only into playing Multiplayer mode, buying both won't serve any purpose.. Just buy the MC5! :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] matus201:
When I look at n7 running MC5 at best graphics and n5 running at optimal, they look the same to me. N7 on optimal looks the same as n5 on low graphics.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Johmama:
Okay guys, I might be picking up MC5 then and trying it out. A few more questions just to make sure:

Is the multiplayer actually pretty active? Are the lobbies pretty full with different people? I assume it's like most other FPS games on other platforms (like I said, this would be my first Modern Combat game).

Anyone try doing a Slimport to TV + wireless charging setup? Can the N5 wirelessly charge while outputting video via Slimport, or is there some safety or something that doesn't allow it? I can't seem to get it to charge while playing games on my big screen while on the wireless charger, and it seems to charge just fine where it previously was after unplugging the Slimport. Any workarounds? This is the last thing keeping my phone from being basically an awesome mobile video game console.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] vin4yak:
There's absolutely no lag on my device and the graphics is crisp too!

Just out of curiosity, I tried the stock rom along with stock kernel (everything stock). The smoothness was completely gone.

If y'all really want to enjoy MC5, I would certainly recommend ElementalX and also tell y'all to flash the latest GPU drivers from Qualcomm.

But then again, not everyone is comfortable with unlocking/rooting just for a game :angel:

Modern Combat 5: Blackout Update is out!

Here's the changelog:

What's New
This update addresses several issues reported by users:
- Added an extra gfx option for high-end devices (may require an app restart for the option to appear)
- Fixed a transparency issue on certain devices on the Chapter 6 map ("Rooftop", in multi-player)
- Improved aiming sensitivity when using controller
- Other minor fixes
We will address other user issues in upcoming updates.

I don't know how awesome can this game become after the update! :D

Yea. Possibly. That being said, Kernel and it's settings play a HUGE role in smoothness as well.
