play3dpool

Ive played their a few times, you will see its not got the graphics FOD has, but still has over 134.000 players..

Their mainpage has some of the things i think FOD players want,They have a Top Breaks List on their mainpage & they  have a Top 100 Player list

The game is alot more basic then FOD, here are a few SS

I saw the game has no download version,
the ads didnt slow the game down
and they offer no subscription.
You can be in their toplists for free

i am just wondering how that site can have much of what most people here want at FOD and recieves less money..
English pool, More Detailed Statistics etc

is it because we  have more games to keep running(which costs money) that we dont have these things implemented into FOD..


One thing for sure, Fly Or Die has the most crisp graphics ! atleast at pool and chess.

 However yes other sites have various options we dont..... though overall Fly Or Die is best in my opinion.... the only things i wish were different is that we had random chess (i like mostly the random variation where you always get two of each of you minor pieces as usual though your bishops may be same colored and the position isnt always mirrored ) and maybe lightning matches...also that at pool you could choose the power meter system while chosing your striking power.... Fly Or Die system is a great, original, even a more realistic approach, but it is annoying when the wrong power is applied due to various circumstances such as an optical mouse...

Over All i give Fly or Die an A+ for a free gaming site

 Fly Or Die is King !
not a very usefull suggestion...but what do you all think about shot replays at pool ?, a waste of programing ? just wondering what you think ? sometimes i want to see a replay so i can observe my error for future reference...
I just played that other site...it's absolutely terrible! FoD>>>>>play3dpool. The graphics are better on FoD, the way to shoot is a lot better and when you go left you go right on the other site! It's confusing!!
It's amazing to me that this post was even allowed, but I'm guessing OP and some MOD's checked the site out(I haven't,and wont),and they decided anyone who thought to go there,was Welcome too.
I only wish more of the OLD Yahoo players would go back there.
Besides me, they're easily distuinguished by the Black Dots they pick up every name....
If I may add something:

- they have more/bigger ads than us (we also offer the possibility to remove all ads, they don't)
- there is no choice of pool games, only 2 different ball sets (we do have 2 different pool games, and a couple of snooker variants)
- they do not have more detailed stats, in fact they have less detailed stats, or am i the only one who could not find detailed info per player? The only thing where they are better is the highest break

And please, do not compare their "Active Players" number to our "players online". Their number seems to be the amount of players who have ever registered on their site, as there are very few players playing in their rooms, definitely not 130 000.
Our displayed number is the number of players who are currently present in the game rooms, as you can check it yourself. Completely different thing...

So MR. THOM is right, not even worth removing :p

OP
>The only thing where they are better is the highest break

So, OP, you admit that a highest break section would be an improvement? Then make it happen!

Btw, this site IS far far FAR better than the other one ;)
LoL,, 

My games better than yours, My games better than yours.

Nana Nanana.

:p
Just trying to clear some misleading informations in the above posts.. ;)

OP

To THOM-
I never in any way said to anyone here at fod to play their.. i was just making a topic to show some differences of 3dplaypool and FlyOrDie...
NO NEED TO CRY(h)
(I KNOW FOD IS ALOT BETTER)

To OP & your opinion. i think your right to, but if you asked the majority of BILLIARD players here, they would say that alot needs changing.. an update to fix current glitches would be 1, a new look etc  
alot of players are getting bored and sick of current glitches 

Also how about more interaction between FOD and its players/customers..
Maybe have a page to let us know whats happening, are more games in development, are updates & downloads in development, A feedback page....

seems like we never get told anything 

bye for now

not to low ball FOD but if ur into good graphics try  it is a download app game but i must say its great or peps from FOD could use some play methods idk but had to put it out there. i no longer play there but if i was to play pool games again thats where i would go. if u r wondering why i dont play its solely cause i played too much and bored myself of pool:)
I can see why you can't contact these people.  The programers suck.  They can't get the random dice thing right and apparently are too cowerdly to let people tell them they don't have it right!  We all know that simple odds don't work with this game.  In real life, when you flip a coin heads (according to odds) should come up 50% of the time.  Any one with half a brain knows that this does not happen.  When one player gets doubles over and over we all know (those of us with an actual brain) that this is not going to happen in real life!  I guess programming random dice throws is just to much for these programers to handle!!!!
sorry the game is from POOL SHARKS.
