    My jet pack was in the store before I did the jet pack missions, now that I've completed the missions it is not showing up anymore.

    I think it's been made exclusive to the crate it comes in. You can't buy it anymore

    So gameloft just ruined another game by turning it into an iap fest, i wasn't too fond of the IAP in the first place but now it's just ridiculous. I paid full price for this and don't expect items that I have bought with my money to now be labeled VIP.

    Is this game any fun? It's riddled with IAPs. What's the better of the two games this one or Rio?

    You know you are right, they could turn this free and still make money because of all the IAP.

    Anything that was previously purchased and owned is still owned and equipable whether it be VIP now or not.
    Equipable, unequipable and equipable again.
    I've tried and had success on every occasion including with the new jet pack.
    The iap is actually of little relevance considering I'm up to bronze from daily plays, no iap and will reach gold pretty soon if I just play some of the missions rather than rampaging around.
    While the iap elements are very obvious, they are still not no more necessary than they were before, ie not necessary at all, but can be used to speed up getting access to some of the higher end stuff.
    Doing missions themselves will have just the same effect though.

    And no, they couldn't really still make money if they turned it free. The iap uptake is extremely small on it and in no way necessary.if one ignores the fact that VIP can be bought by iap for the impatient and just see it as a form of levelling up achieved through mission themselves rather than free roaming, there is no real problem.

    Is there a way to reset your game? I don't see this as being an option in this game like there is in the other Gangstar games. :confused:

    The gold VIP is unattainable (I got the £13.99 IAP and I am only silver VIP.)

    I was an idiot when I bought it last sale.

    No more Gameloft.

    You dont need to know
    Ive bought plenty of items and played everyday and I'm still on 15 points of VIP for about a week, I think it's time to delete and not come back.

    I still can equip my weapons but there is no ammo button just a VIP button where ammo should be. I have done 20 missions and I'm not even a quarter of the way to bronze so you must have done a lot of playing, each mission playing 2-3 minutes.
    And for the jet pack, there must be a bug because it is not showing up anywhere in the store, before it was located where you buy air crafts.

    This is just my experience and it's sad because it's ruined the game for me, I enjoyed this game so much before. Also having bought this game originally back when it first launched in NZ I have already completed all the missions so I don't want to have to go back and replay them do I?

    This is what my ammo button looks like. Look at the bottom right, the ammo is merged with the VIP button and when I click it I go to the VIP page, is it just me or are others experiencing this problem too?

    Ammo is fine. VEHICLES aren't, whether I travel on foot to a mission, select it from the map, or choose it from the quick launch menu.

    And I can no longer buy bog-standard grenades. So thanks Gameloft. and DIAF.

    Tried that 2x already. Gameloft has a cloud service or something that saves your progress. I can't find any options to reset the game.

    Go offline before first start. Offline = no cloud save.
