So the dev making GC a front loading necessity is not his fault? If it can be fixed, then it wasn't needed was it? They included it, it didn't work, they are fixing it...so I guess my argument is still VALID. So as stated before...It was indeed partially there fault. I'm not slamming this dev personally. I'm just saying devs need to OBVIOUSLY be educated on this big issue because it keeps happening time and time again. This is a known issue and devs need to take it into account if they want THEIR CREATION to work. I also know he is working on a fix. I was voicing my frustration that this really needs attention on both Apples and Developers parts. So again, if the game developers want their game to work on day one for as many devices as possible it's their responsibility to not force a front loading broken game feature. It's not hard to understand. I rest my case in Vindication.
Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel After about 16 mins of playing this game i had to put it down cause it was making me feel sick. I put this down to either two things, the speed the game was running at on my ipad 2 air or due to the nature of the game my eyes kept flicking down the screen trying to spot the "turn". I didn't realise until part way though playing the game that there was indeed alleys to drive down and i think this added to making me feeling sick as i was focusing on the speeding screen to see the alleys.
In a game like this, 16 minutes would make me feel sick too (I'm the king of motion sickness).. I don't think that this game is necessarily intended for long play sessions.. I feel like I will enjoy this game in the same way that I enjoy many twitch games.. In short 3-10 minute sessions spread out whenever I have a bit of free time..
Hey everybody, The final fix just went on TestFlight. It fixes the GC issue and drops the required iOS to 8.0 so more people can play. I'm working with Apple to get it expedited now. Appreciate everybody's patience!
Hey everybody, Just a quick update that the fix is now live in the store. If you had a problem before, go ahead and try it again! Thanks again to everybody for the help! Hope you have fun and see you on the leaderboards!
Seriously thank you so much! I hope this gets fixed soon, I'm so bummed out there's a couple games I bought recently that had me locked out completely and even though this game is free your the only one who has fixed it so far, and very quickly I might add. So thank you, game is awesome.
I wanted to check in and see if anybody was still having issues with Game Center? Everybody I knew who had the problem got fixed by the last update but I'm still seeing people posting the issue on the AppStore. Let me know or post over at newmarksoftware.com/support. Thanks!
Hats off to the guys at Newmark for fixing this quick. It's probably one of the fastest updates I've seen on release day. Everything seems to work fine on my iPhone 6. That's the device with the GC bug. It worked great on my iPad and iPod. As far as the game goes, it's really cool. It's got style to it. It gets pretty frantic at times too! I will say that I'd LOVE to see a full on top-down street racer in this theme/setting or even just a drifting game.
Thanks everybody! I have another update with Apple that includes small updates+fixes plus gives every user 5 keys for sticking around through the issues!
What update is that? I am on the current iOS and Game Center is as broken now as it ever was. Nothing fixed here. Not your fault though. Game itself works great, except for crashing to the home screen if you touch the achievements button. Really wish Apple would just bother to acknowledge the broken GC issue, let alone fix it already...
So I've finally given the game a proper sit down. Phew it's not an easy game. I tried playing on expert and I was cracking up. Dead. Dead. Crash. Crash lol I haven't gotten a single key yet. It's really hard getting keys. Maybe a little too hard? As hard as it is I like this game. I like the tap control scheme. It just works. I like the speed. I have vertigo so it's a bit hard for me but it's fun and very satisfying to get that perfect message when you hit that white line just right. There's one thing missing though. Something that needs to be put in the game. If we make a great or perfect turn, let those suckers at the intersection blow up. Perhaps one of the cars could have the ability to drop a bomb when you turn. Perhaps you could have it as an in app purchase one time weapon upgrade for all vehicles. I'd pay a buck for sure. Tell me that wouldn't add satisfaction to the game? Dev wouldn't this be feasible? I blow up when I crash don't I ? Why can't I drop a bomb when I get a great or perfect turn? Watch them blow up. I paid to get the double credits. The game is worth it. Especially when you have a dev that's right here taking criticism for crap he doesn't even have control over and is trying so hard to fix things and make everyone happy. This is the dev I want to spend my money on. Also you did it the right way by putting the effect on all vehicles. That was a good move. Nice job dev. Billy
Yep, the game boots up just fine now.. Nice job on getting the workaround out so quickly.. About the Keys. Is there an incentive for the player to get new cars, other then just car cosmetics? i.e., does it provide new skills, change background music, affect level layout, visuals, etc.?
Working great now for me too, thanks for that quick fix. Left a short, 5 star review on the US App Store! Good question
Hey Snooptalian, The update was just about people getting stuck at the loading screen. Looking back, unfortunately a lot of the game is based around Game Center and friends list. I made some updates to allow people who have the bug to get in and use the game, but things like the leaderboard icons, etc. are still there. I'm looking into creating a clean path for non-game center users that removes all Game Center remnants!
