Agree with both guys above... Just stunning to think this is a iPhone game and in our pocket.. Wow!! What other games has this developer done? One thing that would be good is maybe... When tank is still, the aiming reticle gets smaller (more accurate) as you arnt moving
Anybody has problem with the control especially when driving a aircraft? They need to seriously provide the option to reverse the Y axis control. Same for reversing the tank, moving left and right are wired... Another thing is if they could provide an "in tank" view that will be awesome. Also if my tank trembles more when hit that gives more feeling about a battle. And it will be great to give a little bit more animation when blaste a tank. Now it is just sink into the ground...
+1 In the UK only £2.99 - amazing game for the money. And honestly the first one that's grabbed me on the iPad straight from get go. Cheers
Tank Stats Anybody know where, or got, tank stats and upgrade information ... it's the grog in me Cheers
1,2, and 4 ditto. I was getting peaved in MP as well because I would engage the enemy, get them down to 5/10%, an then someone would get that last shot off. Prob the d-bag sniper campers just waiting for a tank to drop into a low health range where they know they can one-shot steal a kill. Makes it much more difficult to rank up when there's no points or xp for an assist....in fact it usually leads to me dying because of the prev tank battle.
i played arround 40 MP matches now and most of the time i didn't had any spawn killers nor "sniper"climbing the mountains and waiting to get somebody else"last shot". It happened often to myself that i fought a battle and somebody got that last shot.Well,i don't care.It can happen the opposite as well.It's war.And a team game.As long as somebody takes the enemy out,i'm glad.Winning a match gives more points/experiences than just shooting tanks but losing all the matches... Most of the player seem to play this game serious,i like that. Though i wish it would not nearly always be an automatic team battle.Would like to play the other modes more often.
Agree on the y-axis issue. Makes absolutely no sense, considering the fact tht the dev specializes in aircraft combat games
We'll it seems I'm way behind on the multiplayer side of things. I've completed all the single player missions but I've only done about 2 matches of multiplayer.
All SP missions,really?I can't beat the first russian mission because of the terrible jeep controls and they shoot me to junk before i even reach the first checkpoint.
I'm just going to add my praise to Atypical Games...this game really brings alot to the platform. I'm stunned that this level of quality is possible on my 4S, amazing and the gameplay is fun as hell. It's hard to believe that the game only has 3 1/2 stars on the AppStore, I'm sure most of those low ratings must be those with improper devices/requirements to play. 5 stars, hands down!
I do apologise to the developers for my first impressions of this game. It's is pretty neat and it's just updated as well
Both. Joystick in casual control mode, and gyro (plus rudder) in advanced control mode. And btw, yes to the above posts about the changing the axis controls for the airplane when using the joystick. Pulling it down/back should make the plane go up (by default). And inverted controls would be as they are now.
This game is just a big yawn fest at the moment. The tanks are far too slow and clunky. Compared to other war games, this sucks badly. Yes, tanks aren't all that fast irl, but this takes the Micky! Other tanks seem to get to the enemies before you, meaning there's about one enemy left by the time you catch up. Reloading takes a bit too long, especially if there aren't secondary weapons. Other war games have a machine gun to use whilst reloading. Here, we must sit idle until we get our next shot! No feedback when you get hit, so you don't know you're dead until it says 'mission over'. Sure, it looks pretty, but who cares at the end of the day!? If it's boring, pretty doesn't matter. Essentially, it's still dull. Much like girlfriends.
@lord-sam, play long enough to unlock better tanks and buy upgrades. Might not be your cup of tea, however I'm enjoying it immensely. For awhile I was playing MC 4 a lot but this is now my go-to for online battles, just fantastic.
Rlly like this game, but to be honest the aiming mechanic is pure garbage. So terrible it almost ruins the game for me. Why the devs wld implement such an imprecise and ultimately not very user friendly aim mechanic baffles me. Not sure but do main gun upgrades enhance aiming precision? Doesn't seem to change it.
after more than 80 mp matches i don't complain about the target controls anymore.It definitely gets better after uprading (a lot)and i got used to it.But still...anything else than riding a tank is just a nightmare and i'm glad it's only in single player But i'm getting bored of the 3 maps now.On console (and console price)i definitely would start to complain about the low map count.About just 8 tanks as well.I played birds of steel on console quite a while and it comes with over 100 beautiful modelled planes,even bombers and stukas.With a lot of different skins and a bit skinnable.And EVERY plane had his own cockpit besides the bomber. BUT for a 5 buck pricetag there is really not much to complain.The 3 maps are huge and really beautiful modelled.So many detail (love the butterflies or the fields of flowers^^) I hope for more tanks and especially maps SOON.And of course i would pay an extra nickel for it... edit:would like to add that the game NEVER ever crashed on my device.I had just 2-3 connection errors in 10 hours or so of MP (and arround 5h of sp).Well done.
Please. Someday improve the flying portion of the game to feel less toyish and bouncy when flying NEAR ground. Would be great if the style was more sky gambler oriented.
Thank you! New map is coming (in dev since 1 month now - Africa) and more tanks too (2 of them very soon and another 4 together with Africa).
