I hope this runs better on my iPhone4 now, it seemed every update they released made it slower, and slower. I love the game, got it for my 360 and forced a bunch of friends to get it as well! I wish there was new levels, not the (IMO) awful PVP arena. I played that with 3 buddies on the 360 and it was..... pointless. I'd much rather have a few new maps to play TD on, or at the least new challenges on the maps we already have. The "you attack the crystal" challenge is great, why not have one for each map?
Great to know there will be new items. Considering my first run with the game and having some fun exploits to ruin the fun of the game, I am looking forward to start over. I would most likely get the PVP update as long as the game doesn't lag so hardcore like it does now online. Is there any chance that you guys have fixed how the game runs online too? Any enhancements to the servers or whatever?
It's a host/client system so the servers will be better depending on what device is hosting. I.e. if an iPhone 4S or iPad2 is hosting it should be better now.
if its a host/client system, isn't the connection based off of the hosts internet? rather than the device itself? So if I have a shitty internet and an iPhone 4S that doesnt mean the connection will be better than a 4S on a great internet connection.
Both, the host's device also calculates information about the AI, game, etc that other devices don't have to, which is why a more powerful device leads to a better game. The internet device of the host is also a factor!
So basically it will be rubbish (like it was before) but it will be the customers fault for not having the best iDevice and/or internet speed.
