      • http://musicgamespickles.blogspot.com/ Robert M.

        Haha yup! Played this for like a week...got sick of fighting the controls and small maps. Then deleted it and never looked back!!

        This game was just overhyped... N.O.V.A. will be the next victim of the hype train.

    • Jaime

      The real reason why they don't play this game anymore: They get owned. I'm sick of all the haters

      • BdragonST

        hmm i no longer play this game because i have better games to play when im on iphone, beside i was lvl30 with rating of 5000.....and i realized that modern warfare 2 will own all the fps games on iphone.. lol

    At least you have to appriciate the continued dev support. I just wish Eliminate was more diverse. If the maps were bigger, if other modes existed, if it was possibly to play with more than 4-players (3g network issue, I know).

    Just the potential alone of MC:S makes Eliminate's core gameplay feel shallow & empty. I know MC:S doesn't work, but if you've gotten into any matches at all on MC:S then you know what I'm talking about.

    By the way, Gameloft was too cheap to pay for servers and that's why MC:S doesn't work. We have to supply our own servers when we play and that has created rampant instability/incompatabilty. Without Gameloft using servers of their own to host games, I don't know how or if they can fix the problem.

    • Audi

      How can it be a 3g network problem that only allows 4 players?
      I play modern warfare 2 on my xbox 360 using a 3g dongle through my pc.

    • AdamsImmersive

      I look at how much further iPhone FPS gaming went with Eliminate than it had ever managed before, and I have to be pretty happy with Eliminate Pro. Not to mention, despite some issues I dislike, I've had fun... and for free :)

      That said, I look forward to something better... which might even be the continued evolution of the Eliminate experiment.

    After the update I get matched with players who have much lower ranks, i.e. I am rank 29 and got matched with players who were 10-15. I had a great time but I'm sure they got frustrated. I have played 3 games and each game there was at least one person with a significantly lower rank.

    • MtnBiker

      Look at the skill level not rank as to my understanding that is how matches are made.

      • Colorado

        I was looking at rank and skill. They were unfair fights, skills of 4500 vs 500.

    • RhythmMan

      Haha, that migh have been me. I'm level 11 now and have been playing against level 30+ players. Yes it's frustrating and I don't think I'll keep playing. Just not fun

      • chris f

        its as if they said "wow we have a great game, lets try and eph it up in every way possible" horrible pricing model, and crappy matching. im sure theyre losing money on this and they deserve it after trying to push this crap on us when NOBODY likes it.

      • http://www.spongefile.com spongefile

        I've been impressed by how well I've been matched up in Eliminate before the update. Good balance, fun game, and I like how the strategies change as more weapons and armor get thrown in the mix. Wish it didn't take so long to upgrade/buy stuff, but other than that I don't know why there are so many people complaining so loudly about it. Usually I don't feel like more than a three-game "snack" at any given time anyway, so the credits system hasn't been that much of an issue for me.

    1.1 isn't loading. I installed and restarted twice, same result. It gets to the connect screen and just hangs...indefinately.

  • UMD

    jeez... i would like to keep the 8-Bit armor for longer for 4 terms, i would probably keep it and pay the full like 500c for it

    • N130

      Me too, its like the best looking armor IMO.

      I'm experiencing a ton of lag (it was very smooth with 1.0) so I'll be off until the morning, hopefully all issues will be fixed by then.

      Ngmoco did a great job on this game (and the update), I can't wait for more features in future updates.

    UPDATE: I started a game and the controls were frozen. I could only sit there and get killed. I quickly closed the app but my energy was gone!! What a waste. I'm going to wait until they fix the problems in this update....frustrating...

  • oliath

    maps and armour weren't the reasons people are tiring of this game.... it's the absolute lack of balance... a staple of every successful multiplayer game.

    Until they address that the ACTIVE player base will continue to shrink.

    Every time and update comes out for just about any iphone game i see a million people QQ about it.. Rattling off this that and the other thing "has gone terribly wrong with the update".. And I never really see much change. The game still runs perfectly fine if not better for me... And in response to the people who say they fight with the controls and like sandstorm better.... Are you intelligent enough to check the options menu... The controls are exactly the same... The reason you quit was because you're probably terrible and got facerolled. I did notice some imbalance in the matchup after the update in player matchup.. My best guess on this.. A bunch of people havent updated the game yet and can't log in. Fewer people playing right now means less balanced matches.

    Main problem with this game is that it's still too boring without energy, yo wait hours for 1 paying game and even then you might get paired up with a level 40+ or someone who had modified his client to cheat :/ I hope they fixed that part in this update.

    This update is not enough to bring me back, power cells are still expensive for the little use you get from them and playing a free match is pointless, they should have gone with the concept of earning very minimal credits for free instead of nothing at all,

    It's soo chopped into small sections. I know it's supposed to be the best laserdisc game, but nostalgia-factor aside, do you guys think Space Ace is actually better?

  • nomadichulk

    I love playing the game, but I don't really like the update. Knox is not very well done... I have yet to play a match where a player wins with 10 kills because we're all running through the hallways trying to find each other. And no Berserker Shield! They should have an option to choose which maps you want to play on online.

    And get rid of the 'prototype' skins that are for looks. That's just annoying. At least have the option to get them permanently

    Besides that, love the game! I don't think I've missed a recharge for a week now...

    • http://www.stalkmyart.com Jaysal

      I just think people have figured out strats for the new map yet thats all.

      I agree there should be a way to purchase the skins permanently.. I sat there for 5 minutes going.. ok where is the expensive version of the skin thats permanent.. oh there isn't one its a 150c every 4 matches burn for endgame players.
