Hi Foursaken Media. That new submitted update on BH was forced me to play again (Warning that I have quest - I often forget it ). I have one question about Deluxe version. If I will buy that deluxe version and you will update regular Bug Heroes with new iAP, will I have those things added to deluxe edition in update or Than I have to buy new things in deluxe edition ? I Think that should be enticement to buy deluxe edition instead of buying only some packs (Now I'd like rather to buy 2 packs instead of buying deluxe version, but depends on your answer, maybe I will buy deluxe edition). Or second reason for me should be if you will give some day sale on your new deluxe edition, I would not hesitate . Oh and one more question: Will Bug Heroes: Deluxe edition be updated totaly the SAME as regular Bug Heroes (not only content, but at least releasing in same day) ? PS: Sorry for my bad english, I am Czech.
There will never be any IAPs in the Deluxe version should any more content be added in the future. As far as updating goes, they will be updated with the same things at roughly the same time (depending on if Apple approves them at the same time ). But if you only want to get a few IAPs and not all of them, you'd probably be better off with the free version. Grab an IAP or 2, see if you like them, then get as many as you want. But if you know you love Bug Heroes and haven't gotten any IAPs yet, the "easier" route would be to just get the Deluxe version.
Thank you for answer. I have decided to buy deluxe version only if there will ever be some sale. Why I am talking about sale ? It would be nice to have some discount when purchasing more of the things from iAPs instead of only one/two of them. Something like e.g. 4 for price of 3 or so (only example - I never know If you understand me 100%, I am Czech )(Why ? Because I do not want to buy only treasure hunt but I do not like to give money for 4 packs into the game .. Money is not problem, problem is that is only a GAME, On the other hand, buying one less coffee instead is not bad idea I have to think about it. Last sentense: Sale solves my problem ;D).

Sorry if they didn't make it on your schedule - but now it is here. If you bought some of the extras, buy the rest and quit worrying about whether you have the "deluxe" version without iaps or the regular version with all the iaps.

FM has already stated the reasons for why now instead of earlier: they wanted to wait until they were reasonably sure there were going to be no new IAP options added. The first IAP offered was when the hero packs appeared, three of them, that was also when the core game went free as a way to entice new players to pick up the game and, if they liked it, buy the IAP. Had FM done what you wanted, you'd have wound up getting the Treasure Trove and Reinforcements IAPs free, which of course is what you probably think you deserve since you paid a whole $2 for the core game. What else would it be about? Puppies and butterflies? Only in the world of iOS gaming can you find people who have had the option to be playing the whole of Bug Heroes for, at most, $6.94 US, who will declare there is some sort of nefarious greed going on. For the polish, challenge and fun, not to mention the amount of ongoing development and tweaking and community involvement, this game was a bargain and then some at the $6.94 I paid. The only reason you should be upset at the introduction of the deluxe version is it means it really is the end of the road for big changes to Bug Heroes. dragonheart Active Member Jun 30, 2011 42 0 0 #4198 dragonheart, Aug 12, 2011 FM, there's a glitch in easy sink arena (not sure for hard or normal) when you put ant hole near the edge next to the sink.
