Yeah, this really sux since I'm on mobile broadband and downloading is very expensive for me (unfortunately I can't get ADSL where I am). I was very reluctant about downloading 270mb+ and eventually decided it's worth the $8 it would cost me to download it... Now what? Two thirds of my sound is gone?! Give me a break guys. How could they not notice a bug this obvious? On the plus side the retina display version does look really nice compared to the original, even the backgrounds, although still blocky, definitely still look better. Now, since I don't want to redownload this thing again when they patch up the bug, has anyone figured out any work-arounds for the issue?
In a word, awesome - unfortunately as reported by others, the sound is f***ed and needs to be fixed ASAP. I have to wonder how you could miss such an obvious defect... uhhh... twice (or is it 3 times if we count the iPad version?).
So I have a dumb question- now that the game supports the higher-res retina display on the iPhone, does it look better when pixel doubled on an iPad? Or does it still pixel double the low-res iPhone version when played on the iPad?
Looks interesting, but it really sucks that the sound effects are missing and apparently have been missing for a good while and there still isn't a fix for it. Is there any type of work around? I tried turning the music off and such but it's still broken.
hmmm now with retina display the low max fps cap stands out even more =/ Raise framerate to at least 30 fps for newer devices already. I believe iphone 4 can handle that at least.
Same problem here. It's kinda worse since I can't even hear the sound effects from the menu. Not a problem when I played this on my ipod touch 2g though. I think it's a 3gs problem maybe?
I wonder if they will do what the makers of Assasians Creediscovery are doing about their game breaking bug.... Nothing. If this game goes months like AC without a fix... Be the last time I spend money on these devs. Paid good money for AC and it's been 2 months and not a word, hint for a fix... So it's unplayable but they have my money. I can understand a week or two in delay for a patch but months?
The framerate slowdown and missing sound effects are really annoying. Takes a lot away from the gameplay experience. I played through the 1st version of the game on my 3GS on iOS 3 and it did not have any sound effects and framerate issues. They would have been better off not updating the game, poor job by Square Enix.
Seems like they are not responding to us at all. I tried emailing them a couple of times and I still haven't heard back from them. Sucks! EDIT: or maybe I should send one in Japanese??
I had the same problem on my iPod Touch 4G, noticed something was different when I couldn't hear the usual sound effects Plus my save files seem to be wiped since transferring my apps from my 2G
I'm sure the devs are aware of this issue and would rather spend time fixing it than responding to you guys they already know about it.
how did u guys lost the sound effect? cause i tried on my iphone 3g Os 4.0 and it works fine for 2 battles. than i quitted the game.
Try updating to 4.1 and update the game to 1.1. If you JBed your idevice and the game is running fine at this point then it's hilarious. Coz that means that you have JB just to play the game properly.
