    If anyone can give me a solid recommendation, consider the game sold. Thanks!

    Thank's for adding me. So far we seem to be at about the same skill level. That's good! For once, I'm not getting creamed!

    Yes, we are about the same. I've been getting a good laugh out of my shots. :) Not only trying to jump a gap (twice) and failing miserably, but then I tried to bump your disc and managed to completely miss and go off the edge, again. :D

    I really enjoy the fact that you can go back and watch the other player(s) last move.

    The game is one of the most fun you can have in the App Store. It was an easy buy at $2.99, it's a must-buy at 99c.

    Definitely looks like you've got more skill than me. I haven't even attempted a gap jump. Think I will have to do some pass and play against myself.

    Forget all these flashy new apps. I'm sick of poor gameplay! This game rocks and I had to buy it and get rid of those add! I just need to know one thing....how do I set up the text message noises and alerts I get? I can't find the options in the game or in my iPhone settings.

    Oh I forgot to mention you guys have to look into fixing a way for me to play more games at once. I have resigned from games due to lack of play by rewinding the game one turn back to my last shot. After I am on my last turn I hit resign and when I scan for more random games online, I'm notified I am still at my max 20 games even though I had just resigned from like 10 games

    Can you guys add a refresh button also to search for recently updated games? My games will notify me of someone making a turn bit I can't see the game under "my turns" column. Only way is to hit home button on iPhone amd reload the app. Then it refreshes.

    I would love to see some sort of customization in the game. For example, you are awarded points for winning random races. You can spend the points on custom discs. There could be different paint jobs on discs and you would spend your earnings on those. That way you could have your super sweet teddy bear paint job disc racing against someone's skull paint job disc. lol

    JMarceLF, you can only resign when it is your turn. Resigning by rewinding to your turn doesn't actually get processed as a real resign, so that game is still active and that's the reason your list is still full. That's a bug we need to fix.

    The notification settings you asked about are located in the iPhone Settings->Notifications->Disc Drivin' section. Also, we'll be looking into improvements to the game list refreshing.

    Thanks again to everyone for the compliments, requests, and great feedback as always!

    I would like to see this in the next update: When you touch the camera to see the whole map, it could be cool to see the discs glowing or something, because sometimes I can't barely see them and its hard to locate them. With this simple update, the localization of the discs would be immediate.

    Ok please? :p

    Online tournaments could be amazing too, but it more a luxury than a need. I mean, tournaments like this: [​IMG]

    Last but not least, quoted NormaL guy For Great Justice:

    Thank you for the response. I love this game, reminds me of an old table top shuffle game with cue sticks I played in elementary school.

    Just a quick note that Disc Drivin' goes back to $2.99 tonight, so you have just a few hours left to get it at its lowest price ever!

    And don't forget, if you want to try it out for free, Disc Drivin' Free is a full-featured version, supported by ads, and all your online games will carry over to the paid version if you decide to upgrade.

    Buy this game NOW! Seriously the best $2.99 I've ever spent so $0.99 is a no brainer. Then add me for some games. I hate when I start a random game and my opponent forfeits after the first move. I want some big matches :)

    The game is great. A really fast network, something that I'd like to see in We Bowl.

    Every TouchArcade reader seeing this thread should be buying this game NOW or at the very least trying the FREE version.

    Sometimes when I drop a bomb it doesn't appear. Anyone else experienced this? My power meter goes down but no bomb appears. The first time, I think nothing happened at all. The second time it seemed to 'vapourise' as soon as it appeared, like when you pass through a bomb while ghosted.
