    They've been using physics since May of last year with NOVA 3.

    Well sleeping dogs was all about counters. Don't think this has that, or does it?

    Melee is button mashing. No counters.

    No counters. Mashing gets things done, but using strong attacks by holding down the punch button works better.

    Thanks guys. I was using the vid as a guide.
    Sounds so much better.
    Now can one of ya'll do me a favor?
    Lauch a coordinated offensive on the military base and find if there are aliens?

    How would this run on an iPod 4g? I think I have enough space for it. I know I need to upgrade but I leave for basic in a month so don't all say I need to upgrade.

    Yes, because you didn't close the app and there was no initial GC check, like at startup.

    Pedestrian ragdoll physics sold me. Downloading now, will see how it runs on A5 devices.

    How populated is city when you're flying a plane or something high in the air? Is it just empty?
    Also - what is it like driving the cars? Are the physics good? Not compared to previous Gangstar games, but standalone.

    Yeah, money won't become a problem. I just made 100k by getting 1/3 stars on a race.

    And the most expensive vehicle costs just under a million, same with weapons.

    Sanuku's video seems pretty choppy. Can anyone confirm how this actually runs on an iPad 4?

    I'm in a sharing mood.I just had this message PM'd to me (so hopefully a fix is in the near works)...


    Hello!

    I'm C . A. N. D. I. C. E. (sorry about that, but TA deems my name inappropriate, lol) and I'm the Gameloft community manager for Gangstar. I'm sorry to see that you're experiencing crashing on Gangstar. Although it seems like there's a workaround, we'd like to investigate the issue further. Can you please send me an email to [email protected] so I can ask some troubleshooting questions?

    Thanks!

    I played for two straight hours and enjoyed all of it. Great game.

    Runs fine.

    Please define fine. Fine to me is a minimum of 30fps.

    How does it work on an iPhone 4S? Do you get a safehouse when you start?

    It's been said multiple times in the thread. The game seems to be locked at 30 FPS.

    Well hopefully the game still sells well otherwise Gameloft will just use it as an example why freemium is the way to go.

    It's been more than 1.5 years since the last Gangstar so they've had more time to work on the details. Personally, I like them taking the time to expand the scope and quality of their games rather than be focused on pushing out yearly releases.

    Yeah I read some of that. Just making sure since the videos that have been posted look well below 30 , more like 20-25

    I am glad they really put a proper effort in on this one! Like most of their premium priced games, this has a level of fun that shows why Gameloft is one of the top iOS publishers despite the flack it may get for its freemium titles. This one is already proving to be an improvement over the fun but uneven previous Gangstar: Rio!


    I hope they make enough money off this that perhaps they will consider making the next Dungeon Hunters as a premium title...
