    The 2k truth gave us false hope for years that the game would come back, to make it clear early this year that the game was dead. It's one of the most unpleasant things an iOS developer has ever done. And the truth is that if I had that balance in the AppStore I would have bought it hours ago, but as I tell you I will have to buy another gift and card to complete and buy the game. To be honest, I'm not so much a fan of this type of games, I'm more nfs speed, but I'm interested in making the game look amazing.

    MFI is the only way to go with a game like this, plays superbly. Can’t see how any serious gamers on iOS get away without one, certainty could be more games that use it, but many many great games do, and they are always way way better!! I have the Nimbus, it’s a great controller!

    Crashing

    My game on my iPhone X just crashes right after selecting send or not send reports. I have tried erasing the app three times (not doing it again cause 12gb in one night is too much data used lol) and closing the app off the switcher and doing it on airplane mode and LTE/WIFI nothing just crashes. My wife’s X is just fine though. Anybody having this issue?

    If you used the send email option then our support team can reply to you and get in touch. If you just sent the crash report anonymously without using the email sheet then please send us an email via support [AT] feralinteractive.com with GRID Autosport iOS in the subject line as as much info as you can and our team can investigate.

    It happens automatically. You need to be using the same iCloud account on both devices and you should stop playing on one device before playing the other.

    You can check if your device is syncing your save games by checking the "Files" application on your iOS devices and seeing if a GRID Autosport folder has appeared.

    If you still have issues please use the in game support email system to send us a report so we can investigate further.

    Regarding the HD textures and other DLC. How do you know that it’s downloading? Coz I keep on tapping “download” for the HD textures together with the DL and I’ve been playing the game for a while. Then I checked the file size in settings, it almost was the same as the freshly installed file size.

    When you download the textures you get a download bar showing the installation and a confirmation once it's completed and installed. That's it.

    IAP should appear in the documents and data section not AppSize.

    A download bar? Hmm I’ve never seen that appear in the game before even after confirming the download. I’m gonna try again.
    Edit: Got it to work. IAP in my restrictions was turned off lol

    XCOM 2 on a giant iPad 12.9"
    :eek:

    I have a Switch and have been playing XCOM 2 on the pc like it's no ones business, but would just love to play it all over again on an iPad. If it came out for the Switch and iPad, I would choose the iPad version because of the bigger screen.

    Also would snap up the expansion 'War of the chosen' just like I did 'Enemy within'

    Now speaking of Grid.
    :eek:WOW:eek:

    I have not been this shocked at the graphics and presentation last seen since Bioshock so ma y years ago, and I haven't even downloaded the HD package yet.

    Just playing on the iPhone 7 and it is hot! Both the game and the iPhone.#

    It will really shine once I download everything for it on the iPad 12.9 and Gamevice controller.. will also need to put on a good set of cans as well.

    Spent an hour in the game now, on my ipad 12.9 gen 1. 2 observations:
    . warmest ive ever seen a game get my 12.9 lol! the apple logo on the back side is literally uncomfortable to touch. not the hottest ive ever seen a device get before though, not worrying.
    . mifi with steel nimbus. very responsive controls. verrrryyy. Even with settings for it maxed the analog stick is still a twitch turn monster, will take some getting used to. im used to the very comfortable mifi controller sensitivities over on rr3 (i consider rr3's mifi settings to be the best ive ever experienced on mobile racing).

    those two aside (neither of which are game breaking), fantastic experience so far :)

    This one definitely! And it should also be optimized for the A11 and X screen like GRID™ did. But I digress. I’m not really into racing games, GRID™ is premium so I had to support them. THIS is quality in your pocket.

    They have done a brilliant job at optimizing - take a second to think about it - this is a 4 year old game that used to require a dedicated games console or PC with a dedicated graphics card to run and they've got it running on a mobile device, thats an incredible achievement and should be applauded.

    Regarding the 6s - I have bought and installed the game on my 6s and it runs fine for me - note we are all different and what is fine for me might be annoyingly slow FPS for another - Feral basically drew a line in the sand as to where they were happy with the quality of the game (i.e. average FPS, quality of the graphics etc) and that's why the iPhone 6s inst officially supported - it does work tho and plays great

    Nothing to say , other than this is the best racer iOS has ever seen. The depth and variety of racing is astonishing. So so good!! Thanks Feral. This was one of my all time favourites on th PlayStation, and now on iOS. Happy days!:)

    I was blown away with the Visuals on My iPhone X, First Racing Game to fully fill the Screen and It looks stunning. Trying to get used to the Controls but seeing now makes me want to get a Nimbus Controller for sure. Or I saw this - Can anyone vouch for this MFI Controller - Mad Catz C.T.R.L.i Mobile Gamepad - Gloss Black (IOS)

    https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00M77US74/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_12?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE

    Controls are quite hard but I remember It being like that on the PS3 too be honest. So far I'm using a Custom Settings, TCS On, ABS On, Stability Off & Simulation Mode, Trying to tackle going fast in a McLaren GT3 off the bat was very difficult. I kept oversteering the car mid corner at Abu Dhabi & I also noticed the screen dimming and the FPS Dropping when lots of Cars on screen visually. I put It into Energy Saver Mode & This seem to fix the issue but reduces the HD Graphics down I believe?

    Anyways I'm loving this game and fully happy to rate the Game 5/5, Patches will undoubtedly come so I'm confident I'll be playing this for a while!

    i can absolutely say you want the steelseries nimbus (best mifi controller, period) or gamevice if you want a controller that attaches to your device (no official word from them yet on a 'x' model). cant speak for the mad catz personally but back when afterpad.com was maintained, their review of it was squarely in the 'meh' range.

    "you must get a controller" no i am not and i am fine without it :)
    you guys kill me with this talk
    It works fine without it just have to be patient and get the hang of it!
    It's fine if you choose controller but it's not the only way to play it
    This is the best racing game I have played to date on any platform
