Where do I even start? I got the new map but I had to unlock it first by beating the first two again, that wasn't that bad because it got me back into the game. The Game crashed twice but it saved so no problem yet. So I finally get to the Desert Map and No new towers? I figured I downloaded a buggy version so I deleted it, and redownloaded it. Now I still don't have the new towers and I have to unlock the first to again to play the Desert one... arghh
I would doubt they drop the price at all. It debut higher and had a price drop after a few weeks. It has been 5 bucks and remained in the top 50 since pretty much the week it came out. It is an exceptionally well done game. Good graphics, good sound, good gameplay, addictive as well. If you are interested in TD games, this one and 7 cities are great. I have yet had a chance to play the creeps though. If you are on the fence because of price, you may be standing up there for a while, i would say get off the fence and play. Besides the way the updates are going you are getting 3 times as much to play with for 5 bucks than most of us got when we first bought it
I am having weird crashing issues as well...mine always start at the beginning of a wave (thankfully it will save the game even if it crashes) but it is quite annoying to say the least
It Doesn't Matter... I have an iphone 1g, and my wife has an ipod touch 2g, and we both have the same problems. Yes, we've restarted the game and reset the devices several times, and the problems persist. It's not a matter of which device you use or if you reset the device or not; it's a bug in the game code. Period. We love this game, and love the changes, but frankly, it's now more frustrating with these setbacks, and can't wait until a patch or update resolves this issue. Also, besides the previous problems that were mentioned, the scoring on my device is displayed incorrectly - Once i was at 61,000 points in a wave & when the next wave began, it dropped to 57,000, and on my wifes device, she played a round where nobody got through, but lost 5 men. Strange? Well, enough of the rant. Hopefully the Dev's will hear all of our plees, and get to that update...quickly.
The only beef I have with this update is when I turn of the iTouch the game music keeps going. Most games just shut off the sound but this one keeps going...annoying. I like to just clik it off ----- go to work then click it on and have it back where I started. I dont like having to HOME out and then restart the app just to get the music to stop. I guess I could double HOME it and pause the music but what a pain in the butt.
ive been playing games primarily on my touch now for about 2 months and never had a problem with crashing until now. Resetting does not help for me. I dont understand how to unlock extended....i beat level 50 crossroads on easy/medium....does it have to be done on hard? i wish they were clearer . Also Ive had a few mis-fire issues...not that its THAT big of a deal but clearly i dont want to lose a guy just because a tower decides to fire in the opposite direction into an empty field... ........oh if only the creeps had more levels, i cant believe im saying that.....
They say they are fixing the crashing bug (though it has never happened to me). To unlock extended you have to beat all 100 levels. The 50 levels thing is an error. I'm not sure what you mean by mis-fires. If you are talking about the mortar tower, it will occaisionally miss. This is somewhat intentional. The mortar tower has a slow firing rate, and the doughnut range shape. It attempts to predict where a creep will be, and fire there. If that creep gets destroyed or slowed down by goo, the tower can miss. It's just something you have to take into account when learning how to use the mortar tower.
I also have issues with this game. 1.2 is not as stable as 1.1.1. I have restarted my ipod touch and it still crashes. Sometimes it lags.
My crashes quite a bit, but I've never lost any data. I like the new towers and the new field. I feel like this is probably the best $5 I've spent.
Missing Settings after update I've never had it crash on me, but I did have to delete it and re-install. Before the update I had turned the sound off and now I wanted to turn it back on. The problem was that the settings for the game (which you have to go to the settings app to access) disappeared. They just weren't in the list anymore. Of course when I deleted and re-installed I lost all my save data so I had to unlock all the levels again (but the settings reappeared). Anyway, despite the technical problems, it's still very fun. The new weapons make it feel new all over again... at least for a while
I know right? Here's my example; on Black Friday I went on Amazon and got a standard game on the PS2 for $3.99, but now today I want the newest action game on the PS2 and Amazon wants $49.99 for it!! WTF?! Why don't they sell it for $3.99 too?! The $3.99 game was great. Doesn't make much sense, does it? That's because the world doesn't work that way. There is also a difference between one game having a sale and another game not having a sale. Congrats on getting The Creeps though, you got a great game for only a buck. ^ ^
About 10 crashes until I unlocked drylands extended mode. Then I stopped playing. And probably I will play my other games until an update (fix) is made available. I loved the new towers too - as well as the new map - and despite the crashes, it's a lot of fun. Thanks developers ! If usefull, I have a 3G iPhone 16Go with 2.2.0 firmware.
I'm loving Fieldrunners 1.2 new towers/planes etc.. it adds a nice touch to the gameplay. However, to echo everyone here. It is super buggy! I managed to get to round 499 in the grasslands, but it crashed atleast 20 times. Good thing for auto-save!
