    First hello to all members as this is my first post on here. :)

    Now down to issues I have found. I always reset my iphone after DL'ing any new app/game but I have found field runners to crash on me several times since the new update.. Also I got to round 100 on crossroads on extended to unlock drylands etc & still it says I need to unlock it?

    Loving the new towers...just hope all bugs are ironed out soon.

    Unlocking

    You need to get to round 50 in classic mode to unlock Drylands - can't use the new towers. Took me forever to figure that out because everything had been unlocked before the update and I was really loving those new towers.

    My phone didn't have a glitch until I had been playing for a while and had beaten the first two maps again. I don't know what the deal is...resetting seems to have no effect but it may be more prone to crashing when the field is especially full/busy. I love the changes, though. But I can see getting bored again soon after being spoiled by 7 Cities, Creeps, Besiegement (an update should be out very soon) and Crystal Defenders with the multiple maps. Here's hoping that Subatomic keeps adding to this one because it really is fun while it lasts!

    I've had towers not fire at units as they waltz past a few times, and it also crashes every so often but it saves it so no big deal. Would be nice to fix them though.

    Also had towers not fire. I had to let the little guy through.

    If you notice it's not paused and there's no firing.

    Also had it spontaneously go back to the dashboard.

    Had a crash the very first time I played the game, but didn't hard reset the phone before playing like the game recommends.. (so, my own fault)

    What has worked for me, is if I have been running a lot of apps beforehand, I now hard reset the phone before I play and I have had no more problems (finger crossed) :D

    Hope that helps a few of you at least.

    Be patient, guys. A fix has been submitted to Apple a few days ago and should be ready to download soon. That's what I was told.

    It crashes alot now...

    I've been playing The Creeps as I wait for the bug fixes. The last Creeps update stabilized it quite a bit.

    My crashes every 5 seconds. its unplayable. also, something i noticed is before i opened fieldrunners, i went to Free Memory and the memiry was at 23.47. i opened fieldrunners, it crashed to springboard. went back to Free Memory and i saw the memory go down from 25.83 to 2.04. All this in a matter of 20 seconds. patiently waiting for bug fix.

    FieldRunners 1.3

    I was wondering if anyone knows whether there is going to be another major update for fieldrunners. Right now, the game is pretty fun but I think it could use more maps. Does anybody know if this is in the works?

    they should fix the constant crashing, out of no where it just exits the game in the middle of a wave, but at least they installed the autosave feature

    a new map would be cool too

    They just updated the thing, and it took them 3 months to do it. Give them some time for the next one.

    The update introduced a serious crashing bug (though your progress is always saved so not a huge deal) and a secondary non-firing tower bug.

    However, the fix patch has already been submitted to apple and should be available in the next day or so.

    yeah the mid-wave crashes happened to me occasionally too. fortunately the game always started up back in the same spot.

    it has never crashed on me before the update, but already has twice,
    and its not because i didn't restart my device or whatnot...

    i mean its not bad, its autosaved, so you can reload it and continue, just an inconvience really

    haven't seen the secondary non-firing tower bug.

    still a fun game, and love the new aerial map

    Ah, good, it's not just me then. I've had it quit on me a few times on the update, but at least it didn't lose anything, so not a major issue, just a pain in the butt.

    Check out the Twitter feed for Fieldrunners that is linked up on their site www.fieldrunners.com. There's a recent video that was posted for a gaming site where they interviewed the developers. Apparently there are some more big updates coming out in the next few months.

    The latest release was an excellent one, but a few bugs in that release will be fixed up shortly as I believe they've already submitted a path to the App Store.
