are there any plans to make the game run better on older phones?

60FPS was a game changer. when it works, it's buttery smooth, every graphical issue in the game goes away, and to me the smoother animations are a big advantage.

but it also causes overheating and lag spikes and it happens even when 60FPS is off sometimes.

hardware limitations are a reality but are players who run older phones just out of luck?

how is the game running for you and if you had any lag issues, what fixed it?

    Game runs flawlessly on the 16 pro, even though I know that’s not what OP is asking.

    FWIW, Apple employees themselves will tell you that the 13 is one of the best phones they ever made. I played on one of those for years before I switched to the 16. The 13 was always rock solid in case anyone is looking for an older option.

    I changed phones multiple times during the 9 years I played this game, I use my old phones as alliance group chat phone so I don't need to switch apps while playing and chatting with my alliance

    60 FPS is going to be heavy load for any mobile device as well as battery drain, you should play on PC when it's available as PC is meant to handle 60 FPS games

    For best performance in important fights like Battlegrounds, always restart the app every 30 mins of playing or 3 BGS matches

    I have multiple devices, I still keep older devices that are still working so I have 1 for playing, 1 for forums, 1 for alliance group chat

    TSMC are making 2nm processors for mobile devices
    That's the future if you are getting a new device

    For now 3nm processor is the best you can get for mobile devices

    Followed by 4nm and 5nm
    Anything bigger than 5 is going to lag hard I guarantee you

    There's 1 cheap way to make older devices work better

    Take a household fan and blow at the most powerful setting against the back of your phone while you are playing

    You are lagging partly bcos your phone is having higher temperature

    So maintaining a lower temperature is key to making phones work harder

    That's why people do to desktop CPU
    Bigger fans and aircon to lower the temperature of Intel processors
