    Hi, guys. You probably already know that I play Battle Bay on an iPad, but I've been thinking about playing it on my Android phone too. My Android phone is a Galaxy S6 and it has a 5.1 inch screen. I'm curious to know if other Missile Launcher users are using the weapon effectively on a device with a similar screen size as my Android phone. Missile Launcher demands a lot of accuracy, so using it on a tablet should be way easier than on a phone, but that's just my thoughts. I wanna know how phone users manage to handle the Missile Launcher - is it easy or hard? I'm scared to try it myself because I don't want to sabotage my team.

    I play battle bay on my ipad. I have tried playing on my iphone 6. I even have trouble locking a target because it's so small.

    I can't even aim with canons or mortars on my iPhone, let alone with missile launcher. But maybe I'm spoiled because I only know how to play on iPad. Maybe people who play exclusively on phone would have no trouble aiming with missile launcher.

    Hmm, so looks like you're in the same boat as I am (metaphorically speaking).

    I can only vouch for the s8 edge, it's got a bigger screen than most phones I think but my sweethearts epic t4 missiles work beautifully on there. If she only had some other decent gear on that boat of hers I'd be a bit jealous.

    So you're saying you manage that weapon well on your Galaxy S8 Edge? Okay, thanks. That gets my hopes up.

    Yeah man, I regularly get total contact on speeders when I mess about on her phone.
    It might take you a game or two to get used to, but it's definitely doable. I doubt it'll even take you one match to be honest, you're much better on the missiles than I am.

    I have a second account on my phone and it's very hard to aim compared to a 13" tablet. Will be getting new phone with bigger screen soon but still 5.2" is small.

    I only play on my phone and almost got up to nightmare. I use a one plus 3. Once and a while I find aiming difficult but i can still do a ton of damage

    I use an Amazon Fire HD8, $60 and you can sideload the Google play store.

    I'll never understand the $700 phone phenomenon

    Phone works fine, I play on Droidx and it's gotta big screen. Never fancied torps tho, I would say the item size leap from mk4-5 was a bit hard to get used too. Really frustrating if u hit the wrong one lol

    here are my thoughts . whatever phone or tablet you are used to , when you switch to other sized phone tablet or more or less screen sensitivity , it will take time to getting used to .

    You can adjust the position and size of everything.

    I play on an s7 edge, the screen is slightly bigger, 5.5 inches and I managed to land some solid hits with my missile launcher.
    I've never played on a tablet so I have no reference whether it's easier or harder to play it on one. But I can tell you that I managed really well with missile launcher, in fact it's my second biggest dps weapon after my OP explosive cannon.

    I never played any mobile games on anything bigger than my iphone 5. I can tell you one thing: it's possible and you will get used to it.
    The trick is to bring down your sensitivity.

    I use both iPad and my phone,and what I thought is that using phone is much easier to use missles,while in iPad I miss a lot of ml shots

    I only use a Galaxy S6 with missles. Yes, I miss a lot and I have nothing to compare it to, but I'm almost always the high dmg dealer. It doesn't feel like a problem to me and they're my favorite weapon.

    I've just got a regular Galaxy S7, and I've never had issues aiming, but I guess it's all I've known.
    I can't even imagine how nice it must be playing on a tablet... the visibility would be crazy!
