    I loved the first part but here are some points which I am missing:

    - Part 1 had a much better tutorial. A game like this needs an in game tutorial ...
    - I would also vote for an in battle save.
    - In a custom battle it would be nice to have the option to chose the ships for both sides.

    So, right now I rate it four stars ... with some updates I would give five stars ...

    It's listed now on sale 40% off only ONE DAY after launch at full price. I sincerely hope it's a mistake... Launch day sales should begin, how can I phrase it, on LAUNCH day, not a day later, otherwise it's the same old slap in the face of early/impulse buyers.

    You'd think those early/impulse buyers would learn something after being "slapped in the face" so many times.

    Yep, they could learn that insta-buying is not a good idea anymore.

    Hello. The game looks pretty good but I am wondering whether it has AI to play against. I don't always like to play against people, but rather would play vs AI. Please someone let me know. Thanks!

    Yes, there's single player battles (quick & custom) as well as full US & Japanese single player strategic campaigns.

    Hey Steam users, if you'd like to see Battle Fleet 2 come to Steam, please vote up our Greenlight page:
    http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=262465622

    For anyone who buys a copy of the game on ANY platform (iPad, Android, Mac, PC) before the game gets greenlit you will receive a free Steam key for the game if you email us your purchase receipt. This offer only lasts until the game has been greenlit and is limited to one key per person.

    So vote up the game and add it to your Steam collection once it comes out on Steam even if you buy the iPad version on a sale!

    Submarines added to Battle Fleet 2

    [​IMG]

    Great news! Battle Fleet 2 has just been updated with Submarines and other cool features!

    You can now add subs to your fleet and use anti-sub warfare to counter them. Destroyers and Frigates now carry sub-detection and depth charges, while recon flights can be used to spot subs that have gone deep.

    Also, I've added destructible terrain so you can punch holes through the island, improved the campaign AI, added French, Polish & German translations and lots of other fixes. You can get the game from http://www.battlefleetgame.com.

    Let me know what you think.

    I got this game on Steam and I like it a lot too. Don't know whether the PC version is better than iOS version of the other way around but on my "very average" but gaming purposes PC it runs very well. Exciting exhilarating action and explosions.

    The game is not yet available on Steam, it's currently in greenlight. So please vote for it and hopefully we can get it greenlit. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=262465622

    I think you must have bought it from Desura or Humble :)

    No iPhone version yet, sorry Bloodangel. The submarines feature has been requested since the original game so it's been the biggest priority so far. But now especially that the bigger iPhones have come out I'll try to see how it would work to make a small screen UI.

    BF2 Expansions funding

    I've been getting lots of feedback since the sub update and lots of feature requests, especially an Atlantic campaign. To help expand the game and add all this cool new stuff, I've put together a funding campaign through Indiegogo where supporters can contribute to the game and actually vote on what features I add next. If you like the game, please help us spread the word by sharing the link with your friends:

    http://igg.me/at/bf2expansions

    Also, aside from all of the perks available for supporters, I'll be giving away prizes (gift cards, free copies of this and other games, etc..) to people who can refer the most supporters. To do that you'll need to use the share buttons at the top of the campaign page so your referrals are tracked :)

    Does the game have within mission saves? I'm stuck to gaming in short bursts.
