The 3D graphics in Fallout Shelter are an essential part of its fun. For each new example I zoom in solely to enjoy the detail. But mostly I zoom all the way out to administer my large layout without accidentally dragging dwellers as I scroll around or losing them when I do want to drag them. It's a little difficult to get all the way out to the 2D representation, even on my iPad4. But I must because there's a lot to do continually, which is another fun part of the game.


So it's counter-productive and frustrating having to do it over and over just when you've found the place to act because the game re-zooms in what seems like every 2 minutes for jokes, or baby making or attacks. Especially since I don't need, or care, to know: even from far out you can see a fire or attack already.


You know how the hammer disappears during attacks because you can't build changes then? What if instead it flashed red to alert and didn't zoom in? I used to play a sim space colony years back that also zoomed in, and it was equally irritating. I only mention this because fixing it can easily make the game better, but only if you understand about it.
