I really like this game but it ****ing sucks that you have to start from Wave 1 every time. The beginning is way too slow and boring.
No minigore has a system, where if you get to so and so points you unlock normal, then expert, and you can choose to start from the beginning or normal or expert(which is 6000 points into the game).
Chill out everyone... The thing that people have to remember - there isn't a AAA game on the app store that IS the console version, on iphone apart from COD:ZOMBIES. There are a lot of franchises that have been bought successfully to iphone in either slimmed down forms or in a handheld versions, but not almost 1-1 copies... They must have practically made the COD:WAW engine to get it so close. (can you imagine if that is what they did do and an awesome FPS is just around the corner..) For that I would have thought that there would have to be a premium for the privilege of playing something that couldn't have been easy or cheap to do (take an XBOX360 game and put it on an iphone). In terms of price points, they are bound to drop that main game price in time, and all discussion over the next map pack prices is just supposition and guess work no matter who the source might have been... Why don't we all just chill out and see what happens. If they are putting the same amount of effort into the next map as they did the game and first map, it is going to ROCK even at a theoretical 5.99. If you think its too much, just wait until they drop the prices - the game isn't going anywhere... and you will just have to wait until all the people that do think it is worth the money have had their fill. Remember that an FPS on PC/XBOX360/PS3 has a much higher addressable market than that of the number of people that want to play an FPS on iPhone and because of this, price points are going to be completely different! In summary Comparing the price points of this particular iphone game and dlc path to any other platform is meaningless, its value is whatever people perceive it to be. If you want to play COD on iphone, this is currently the price.
After spending lots of time with this one and GETTING USED to the controls, I must say it's a HELLUVA GAME! And sure I would have loved if it would have included more maps. But I think with the different levels in the level included, for me, it's more than worth it. And it just feels so polished. And I love that I can blow off limbs. And the head shots are gorgeous. To wit, I think one very polished level compared to 5 crappily made ones is a nice trade-off. Am I content with a 10 dollar price point? Not really! Am I mad I spent the money? Hell no!
2 crappy maps huh? first of all, the maps are awesome, with easter eggs and ALOT of interactive objects, not to mention the perk-a-cola machines in Verruckt map. Verruckt is also 3 times bigger than the original Nacht Der Untoten map (3 rooms against 10 rooms and 3 balconies). The new map also includes alot of new weapons which can be accessed like the M1 Bazooka and M1 Garand (mystery box), there is an easter egg with a full awesome song, new, more lethal zombies, electro-shock traps, crematory chamber, divided teams (Germans and Americans) in two different rooms with different weapons belonging to their country. So, umm, these maps are the awesomest i've ever seen and a complete copy of their console counterparts. Not to mention the awesome animations of the weapons and zombies taken DIRECTLY from the console (which used motion capture anims). I don't know how picky can one get to consider those maps crappy.
There is a reason you cant start at a higher level. The zombies get stronger and faster and if you start at a higher level youre pretty much screwed with only your pistol
Much as I love this game I also hope they upgrade the game's performance issues and online compatibility ( Gameloft did it with mc:s )
Agreed. They need to make up some way to communicate. Voice chat would be a nice addition. They also should make it to where players can come and go as they please in hosted games. Give us a game host list like NOVA or something. To often do I get thrown in a random room just to be left fighting alone within 5 minutes and that sucks when I'm wishing to play co-op.
