    Awesome! Great value for 7 bucks. I believe Ascension will be better than Kino. Add me on game center. FightingGI

    Does anyone know if this update will be at midnight?

    It is available now! I've only played through level 9 on Ascension, but so far I love it, though I am finding I am so used to playing with others on this map, that my usual pattern of playing this map is getting messed up, but it does provide an added challenge. Now if only the box would give me a gun better than the AUG. I want my Gersche devices...

    thanks! i'm looking forward to playing this map, but getting the pack-a-punch machine activated seems like a lot of work.

    That's what's great about this map, it's a challenge.

    Not really. You do have to unlock all those doors to get to the three landers, but that's about it... Around level 12 or so in my game I just ran around to the various landers and set off the rocket... of course then I didn't have money to pack'a'punch my RPK...

    BTW, something I just noticed here in Ascension, the crawlers don't stay down forever :( I made two crawlers when I went to deal with the landers, and when I ran to launch the rocket, I had two fully standing up zombies coming after me. I put them down, and the round ended. WTF?

    I don't know how this game has all good reviews when it is so laggy on the iPhone 4 and itouch. It's pretty clear that the ip4 can't handle the retina graphics but they don't want to have it be 320x480 like the first zombie game is. I die most of the time because the game becomes so laggy once there's a bunch of zombies chasing me. I feel like only ip4s and ipad2 owners really get to enjoy this game.

    From FAQ site, looks like you can lower resolution to have it play faster:
    http://www.callofduty.com/blackops/faq/ioszombies
    1. Performance

    1.1 Level of Detail
    Move the Detail Level slider towards Faster if experiencing performance issues on lower spec devices.

    1.2 Flight Mode
    When playing a Single Player game, set your device to Flight Mode.

    1.3 USB \ Firewire Connection
    Try to avoid playing the game when your iPhone/iPod Touch is connected to a computer via USB or Firewire.

    1.4 Bluetooth Connection
    Try to avoid playing the game with Bluetooth connectivity enabled on your iPhone/iPod Touch.

    1.5 Brightness
    Check that you have set your Device Brightness to maximum for optimal viewing, this can be found in your Devices Settings

    I find this game really smooth, no lag at all. I'm playing it on my iPod touch 4G. I did notice when I updated to 5.1 runs great.

    This is the first time I played Ascension. Love this map ! Way better than Kino
    It's great that it's a large map. Funny how last year people said a map like ascension would be impossible for iOS.

    Anyway about the crawlers. Yes they don't stay as crawlers for a long time. They end up being running zombies. I believe they did this to make the game more challenging.

    Awesome update!

    Thanks for th tips but moving slider all the way to the left doesn't help much once 10 or more zombies are roaming about. While in the other game 20 zombies can be chasing me and the frame rate is still strong. Oh well, I guess I'll enjoy this game when iPhone 5 comes out.

    I got it too. You just keep your finger on the screen for firing.

    Has anyone tried the PHd flopper. I got it but I've never played the map before yesterday. I believe you just run off a platform and hold for Prone??

    I'm really impressed with the job the devs did on this map. They included everything from the console. Excellent detail and a lot more fun than Kino. Just an awesome map !!

    I also would like to know what PHd flopper does. I bought it, but couldn't tell what it does.

    No explosive/fall damage. And in the console version if you would dive to prone there would be a huge explosion, but I don't think you can go prone in this game so I doubt it'll work.
