I am having a similar issue. If I pause my game, quit to the main menu, return to the Home screen and then close the app (ie, double-click the Home button to open the multi-tasking bar and hold the icon until the little (-) symbol appears and close the app that way) then I lose my progress in the current game. When I run the app again and try to resume playing, I end up at the map screen. If I don't force the app to close and leave it running in the background, then the game resumes properly (even if I lock my phone). But sometimes I don't want to leave it running, or I have to turn my phone off (when I go to bed at night). I don't remember having this problem in version 1.0. I'm playing on an iPhone 4 with the latest iOS (5.1.1 I think), not jailbroken. I've also tried restarting my phone, and closing all other apps, but still have the same problem. I don't think that choosing to have lower quality graphics would fix this, since it seems that the saved game simply does not persist after re-starting the app. Other than that I have not had any problems! I am thoroughly enjoying the game, and I hope that this can be fixed!
Is pirate key worth buying? Also do you guys get all stars and then switch to another hero or get some stars and then switch?
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but I don't know of a single game that'll resume from where you left off after being completely closed down. Leaving it running in the multitask bar is the equivalent of putting a PC into sleep mode, killing the process is the equivalent of turning it off. From there you have to start over and boot it up from the beginning again.
The game should save your progress during a level. It's working OK for me (still on version 1, I'm leaving it a few days before updating, to make sure there are no problems with the update!), if I pause during a level, and exit the app and then completely close it, when I start the app again my progress on that level will be saved.
well i was talking about the wave of the same enemies. i suppose they have the same armor values. it's the wave after first golems on stonebreak. basically melven just ignores all enemies which got to her area. it is if a fire wand is equipped, with lightning it is ok. the same is on some other maps too.
Are they, really? I try them sometimes, but it's hard to give up the Lizard guys. How often would you say they end up paying for themselves?
It does. If I exit the game directly from within the game, and then kill the app (from the multitasking bar, which completely removes it from memory), the game will resume from within a second or two before I quit when next I enter the campaign or the battlegrounds. If that does not work for you, it might be a bug. Also, for me, multitasking works great with and in DC2.
I got the white wizard before any of the elite champions. I just got knight lord the other day. The rest are still locked.
General's skill points stuck on 50 Hi. Anyone know how the max skill points are increased? I unlocked the freestyler medal that said it would increase the Generals skill points by 20 but they are still maxed at 50. Is this a bug or have I misunderstood what the medal does?
This game keeps crashing and restarting my device, the 1.1 update didn't fix it. It doesn't crash during battles, it always crashes 2-3 seconds after a battle starts. This is almost guaranteed to happen every 2-3 times I launch the app, and every time it happens it restarts my device.
I just wanted to follow up on this. I don't know what the problem was, but it seems like playing a level all the way to completion will fix it (I just ran through Taric on Novice at 4x speed). I am able to load my auto-saved games once again. Hope this will help anyone else who might have run into the same problem
Does this game have iCloud support? Apparently, I got the Youtube bug, which hasn't even been widespread since iPhone 3gs, and now my iPod my iPod doesn't track time. I really, really, really don't want to lose all of my progress if I reset my iPod.
The max skill points are increased when you increase the reputation of your hero. I think it has to be 6 to raise it about 50 (but I'm not sure, my highest hero has a rep of 5). The medal gives you 20 free skill points, it doesn't raise the cap. What iDevice do you have? Maybe it's a memory issue. Have you tried resetting it (hold sleep/wake and home button until Apple logo appears, if it's an iPhone. I assume iPods work the same way)? And closing all apps that are open in the background? If that doesn't work, try posting on the Defender Chronicles forums, I would think the devs would read those more often than here. No. It's planned for the future I think.
Yup. When you get an Imperial Star on every level (a perfect victory on Heroic difficulty), you a) unlock Legendary difficulty, and b) raise the skill cap to 70. I'm still annoyed that when they add a level it re-locks Legendary on all the other levels until I ace the new one. Sanctuary is hard...
If I get to rep 6, then install the update, my rep will drop, and legendary will re-lock, but will the skill cap drop back to 50?
Mudder pudder! I guess I'll just have to wait because I refuse to lose all my progress. Man, now I'm going to have to manually check everything. And, daily challenges no longer work. Thanks for the answer
