    They would have to have whole new sets of textures for each color instead of just changing a value, like they can do on the computer and consoles.

    and loading textures unnecessarily uses quite a bit of memory than you'd think. Unless it was redone from the start to be used dynamically

    Any status on the update? I know it's been submitted, any chances that it's in review? I can't wait for this update!

    For an online game, the less data you have to send and process the better. If the program only has to load and process a basic set of textures, it can handle it faster. If it has to draw different armor, weapons, colors, etc it starts to bog things down especially on devices with less memory and bandwidth. Kind of like how a pre-rendered background in a game will usually run smoother than having a dynamic background generated on the fly. Pre rendering has performance plusses, but also has its limitations. Kind of a similar circumstance I'd imagine with DD on mobile devices.

    I just wanted to say:

    I asked a while ago if this game was worth persisiting with.
    The tutorial killed it for me.. i know that sounds lame but it really did.

    Anyway - i stuck with it. Pushed on and now wanted to come back and admit / confess that this game is actually very fun indeed.

    Can we change the names of our characters that are already created?

    I bought this game Day 1 and the tutorial was a little hard to understand and didn't realize that I could change my chick's name from Trixie or whatever to my own GC name. Wondering if that'll be allowed?

    I'm really not wanting to start all over, specially after accidentally deleting the app and re-installing it the first time... hope other people have better luck..

    Have you tried to close app and kill background and re-opening it?

    One of the fixes is Balancing and the way the Stats ramp up.

    Any time a game changes the way your character levels up you'll have to start over to make sure you don't keep the unbalanced stats from before.

    Although I definitely understand why you would be annoyed. The devs should have mentioned that in the update notes so users at least know WHY they are starting over.
