it's the games issue it's better of to inform gameloft about this... I have no problems playing any other games...

I doubt Gameloft is going to do much to fix it, they will just ignore it like they do everything else, but its worth a quick email to them.

Yeah it might be the game's problem. Cuz there's not a single problem for me except asphalt 8's lagging. i mean the screen split and stuff..... those problems are just not there

By the way I tired Asphalt 8 v 1 today on my S3 (i9300) and graphics set high, it ran very smooth with no problem at all not even a single lag, so I guess that the game is not yet optimized for N9000.

Yeah it's the games problem. Not the 4.4.2 update. Cuz I'm not having any other issue

waqardaman · Apr 14, 2014

No no no it's not the game's problem. It's not asphalt 8's problem. I downloaded dead effect, another graphics intensive game, and played on highest possible settings. The game showed exactly same results as asphalt 8. It was silky smooth for the first 10 minutes, then the phone heated up and the game started lagging very bad. Just like before, i returned to the homescreen, let the device cool, and then the game worked fine again for a couple of minutes then started lagging again.

It's the 4.4.2 update's problem. Samsung's problem. lol this is what i payed 699$ for. thank you very much samsung.

Is there a way to fix this problem by rooting the phone?

You can root and then install some graphical booster apps like GLTools and Performance Booster (root). Or flash custom kernel, overclock the gpu + cpu etc.
Today I played some Amazing Spider Man 2, I have the Exynos Note 3 and the game's still not that fluid even in Low graphical settings. I'm seriously thinking about rooting.

I'm talking that even you are on 4.4.2,

Look, it's not note 3's hardware's problem. The Mali you which you get on it is one of the best gpus you'd get on a phone today, the problem is with the 4.4.2 update, the phone overheats and starts lagging. I don't think overclocking will help. It will just make the phone even more hotter. Which means More performance drop. But if your still trying, let us know the results. It's still good if it solves problems. Good luck!

Yeah actually, I think you are right, overclocking might not be any help. Custom roms or custom kernels might work. I really think there is some serious bug in Samsung's Kit Kat update and you are right, games always start lagging after a while. At first everything is very smooth and all good but after that the phone starts warming up and the games start to lag. I play lots of games, and every single one of them, even 2D games like cut the rope 2 starts choppy framerates after 30-40 minutes later. I don't think it would be ok to just blame everything on the developer in Asphalt 8 or Spider Man 2's case. I know Gameloft makes bad unoptimized games but its clear that there is something wrong in Samsung's Kit Kat update, and unfortunately I'm not that optimistic about a new update from them fixing this issue anytime soon...

omg thats the situation that i am in.!

i have Exynos ver note 3. i have the same problem playing asphalt 8 on it. its getting very hot and laggy after 5-8 mins playing of it. i am not sure what the problem is. it could be kk's problem or exynos' problem. i have a friend whose phone is SGS4 Exy version. it performs very well without any issue when i play asphalt 8. his phone has KK same as me. i sent Gameloft a messege about this issue a week ago. but they haven't reply to it.

i guess all we can do is just waiting till next update comes out. i am really sick of playing this shht.

Custom roms don't work. i tried each and every 4.4.2 kitkat rom out for note 3 exynos. the problem still persists. don't know about custom kernels.

it's not exynos's problem. it's the kitkat updates problem. since this didn't used to happen with 4.3.

That's what i'm thinking right now. I blew myself buying this high end phone from my part time job money, and it doesn't play HD games! hurrayy!
We need serious help.

New updated asphalt8 is now available. Ive just updated asphalt8 with good feelings but this **** let me down again.
The issues we have suffered haven't fixed YET! Not a single improvement was detected by me while playing game for 15mins
the screen split into 6 upto 16 still exists and heating up and graphic frame breaking as well.
It's killing me that i have to wait next update with depression which is about 1 month or more.

cetindk · Apr 30, 2014

I'm not sure but I'm thinking the Gameloft games that are in Samsung App Store are more optimized for Samsung devices than the ones found in Google Play. Can any of you try Asphalt 8 from Samsung App Store? I tried both the Asphalt 8s in Samsung Store and Googlr Play and I'm not sure but the one in Samsung Store seems a bit faster and more smooth. Try if you havent already.
