    I only use the basic control scheme...but my only gripe with this game is that there is no option to add a bullet time button rather than shaking my ipod....i really really really dont like having to shake....i would love to have a button above the directional control for that...shaking kind of messes up my momentum...plus i feel like an idiot on the bus...


    edit: who uses the advanced scheme and is it better? i tried it once and didnt know what to do, so i went straight back to basic and never looked back..

    naythan - this is an odd situation and one we certainly didn't account for. You have basically installed and old version with its original data which would include your old UDID. And now its is trying to connect using the wrong UDID.

    The only thing I can do for you is clear the old account so that you can have your username back, but you will need to erase the App and reinstall so that it wipes out the old UDID saved in game.

    aleceiffel - the main advantage IMO of the Advanced controller is that there is a Bullet.Time button. The fact that you can kind of touch anywhere to rotate feels more natural to me personally. And more accurate. I also like having the play area with the minimal HUD that the ADV controller uses.

    The key to using it for rotation is not to try to "steer" the ship but just uses swipes or a little swipe and hold. Much like the thrust, just be calm with it and it works really well.

    well, i guess ill give it a try....i really like the basic scheme(minus the shaking) and have grown used to it...thanks for explaining the other one, even though it sounds a tad tedious...have you not had requests for a tap button on the basic scheme?

    ps. i really think you did an amazing job with the graphic design of this game...its beautiful to play...not to mention the music and gameplay....

    pps. i plan on getting the new iphone...will i be able to transfer my data from my ipod touch? and will the new iphone make this game even better to play? i havent heard yet whether some games will have enhanced graphics available or 3Gs specific versions... when i heard how you had to scale graphics back, my first thought was that the 3Gs may be able to let your initial vision shine through........any thoughts?

    is it just me or us level 9 virtually unplayable? I have a 2g touch with plenty of memory but it lags really bad on this level for me....seems to be too much going on at once and man are the bullets fast

    I must admit I really struggled with CS One at first. I was wowed straight away by the incredible visuals but I had a really hard time getting used to the controls and also understanding what the heck I was supposed to be doing. Just as I was about to dismiss the game as being nice to look at but unplayable for me, something suddenly clicked and everything fell into place. I don't know how it happened, but it was like a light being switched on! All of a sudden I found myself able to control my ship much better than before and I finally grasped the concept of what I was supposed to be doing. Now I'm really impressed with the game, and I'm hooked :)

    One odd thing that I had happen last night when I was playing was that I had a level where there were no enemies. I was able to fly around without any hassle, blasting the shields and minding my own business. It was so empty I flew around for a bit exploring. I don't know if this was supposed to happen, but it was quite nice :)

    Mine does not end on the edge of the screen. I can shoot the shield generators and the core while I don't see them.
    There are enough visuals (and audio hints) to help one aim :)

    Yeah there are plenty of instances where you NEED to shoot beyond your field of vision. When the little purple guys start swarming a quick boost away turn and start shooting. Works for fighters too. Best advice I can give for this game: Never stay still!

    Exactly. It's VERY satisfying to know exactly the level's structure. Flying slowly and shooting at enemies before having them on screen. Then you see the background visuals and hear the destruction. I just love it!

    what is everyones user name in this game? mine is KevKo....i think im #7 or something right now, but i suspect that wont last long after the update is released....
    and to reitterate someone's question...does anyone know how xp points are calculated? i thought i saw someone online that had something like 170,000 xp and a very low high score......how does that work exactly??

    I believe it's currently bugged a bit, but the update that's pending already addresses the problem. My user name is LeDouche:)

    Actually it's past a billion now.....yep, it's higher than this number-1,000,000,000!!:eek: And no I didn't cheat or hack, and it's not some trick, that's honest to goodness multiplier milking, courtesy of our boy Vally! Thanks for the tip Vally;)

    Well it wasn't REALLY a tip, but vally said he was getting 4mil on easy milking the enemy spawn points to build a super high multiplier before moving on to the higher levels. Well I finally tried it and took the scoring as far as it could go:) not my prefered method but it is effective.
