I'll admit it... I'm kinda old...
(I have used: rotary phones, pay phones, typewriters, pull-tab pop/beer cans, 8-track players, cassette decks, engine oil from a can, p-38 can openers, wooden matches, cash to buy things....)
Despite my vision being 20/20... certain maps we're really bad for me because I couldn't pick targets fast enough from the background.(couldn't tell if I could hit the target)
I recently swallowed my pride and tried a pair of cheap readers...
I added 2 more kills per game and 150-200k damage...
Anyone else try this? Anyone considering?
(I could get a tablet, but I carry my phone everywhere and play outside my home too... I'm not going to carry a tablet)

You are not alone in this by no means. There is another thread somewhere about this subject. But yes playing on this 6" phone has wrecked my close up vision. But I am in the same boat too, phone goes everywhere with me not my tablet. I even tried screen mirroring on my TV and that was just weird and awkward.

My eyes were always bad so I can't say that this game made my eyes worse. The nighttime ShenZhen map is brutal, but I think they may have done something with it cause it's not as bad lately. I'd highly recommend allowing your phone/tablet to adjust the brightness automatically so that you don't cave into temptation to set the screen ultra bright. Ruining your eyes even more is not worth the extra little detail.

It’s nothing to be shameful. I’m still in the prime of my life, perfect vision, but I don’t build any weapon pass 600m range (okay I have 1 tempest of 800m range but I don’t use much at all in my other hangar). Reason being, it’s difficult to see bots beyond that whether are they hiding behind covers or not.
I’m using iPhone 7 Plus to play currently. My clan mates mentioned that it’s a lot better to use iPad or iPad mini (cheaper).

I need "readers" for everything closer than 2 ft.
Just look at it as part of the pilot uniform when on duty, running bots... the goggles!

I don't have readers, still denying it. But every time I play I just simply take off my glasses.

Been using reading glasses for years. I play on tablets and pc now but still use them. Everything is blurred out to a couple feet. I also used a rotary phone etc. ;-)

My clan mates mentioned that it’s a lot better to use iPad or iPad mini (cheaper). Bro, a tablet is where it's at.I played on an Asus zenpad 10" and it's very good but they stopped making them for some strange reason. I wanted to upgrade to a newer model and after much research I bought a Huawei mediapad 8.4" and it's beautiful. You can find them for just under 300 bucks if you look hard.The new iPad non pro interested me but it's iOS, plus the Huawei has more processing power and got better gaming reviews. The iPad pro and the new Samsung are both in the 600 dollar range and too rich for me. |

Yep, tried it for the first time the other night and noticed a nice bump in performance along the lines of OP. Mine are only 1.5x, but it makes a bigger difference than it would seem strictly from the magnification power...

YES!
i was in line at Bed, bath and beyond and looked over to the right and there was one of those carousels with the different readers on it. Being ancy in line, I reached over and grabbed a pair and popped them on....
I looked down at my phone screen and Wham! HIGH DEFINITION EVERYTHING!!!!!!
My vision is not bad but not as good as it used to be close up. Holy cow, if you haven't tried readers when playing War Robots on a cell phone, then you are friggin missing out!! lol.
