Wow, this website is caught in a time loop around 2005. Phone screen support is a total joke. How have they gotten away with this. Even my granddaughter writes flowing screen code with support for multiple screen sizes for school work and the wee things only 12. Oh come on mwomercs.com pull your fingers out of your arse and put some effort in to community communication.

It's a pc game. Why would anyone care about phone support. What is so important to post here that you actually need phone functionality so you can post away from home?

You sure you aren't trying to post using a phone FROM 2005? I only ever post here on my phone and have no issues at all...

Seconded. I post from my phone on occasion, and other than crowding the keyboard into the reply space, I have no issues with it.

well, to be fair: on my phone, I can't read the forums (fullhd on a "tiny" screen is bad news for walls of text) either.

then again: phone is the wrong tool for that, so..
don't blame the tools, blame the guy picking them for the job ;)

on top of that - we all play this game on a screen that is remarkably bigger than a phonescreen, so why would you even bother using a phone for anything mwomercs-related ? ;)

If we are on a trip and can't play games, or in an airport waiting around, and missing the game.

That's not really true. They don't have your custom thumbnails on the website with the screenshots containing correct loadouts. And the nifty ToolTips with your nicknames require a floated mouse pointer, so they're inaccessible from a phone too. The most that can be looked at is Stats & Leaderboards along with some reading of the Forums while not logged in, and really nothing much more. :(

im more against the trend to phone style touchscreen interfaces everywhere because it takes four times as long to get anything done. more if they change the interface every few years. things would be better if phone people and computer people didn't mingle.

pretty soon the linux terminal will be more familiar than the guis and il stop spending money on oses and the games that run on them.
