    I think the chances that we'll ever see this on iOS are very unlikely.

    I wouldn't want a sloppy port from a facebook game with worse graphics than NOVA 2. I'd much rather they put all their effort into NOVA 3.

    Why would the graphics be worse than NOVA 2? Unity is quite a powerful engine for mobile devices, when the people using it know how to use it to make a game.

    Well the graphics of the facebook game look worse than NOVA 2. I can't see Gameloft porting over the game and improving the graphics. Even then it'd probably still be a mess. It would be better if Gameloft puts their time and money into making NOVA 3, from the ground up for iOS just like they did with NOVA 1 & 2.

    The graphics are definetly better than NOVA 2, could it be that you are playing on a low graphics setting? (Go to the options menu when you're playing!)

    i find that this whole game lags quite a bit
    it's unplayable on my desktop, which is quite slow, but still lags on last year's macbook pro...

    Well, I believe it is a browser based game, so what do you expect?? If you want a less laggy, and probably better online pc game go download a free game like Wolfteam.

    Yeah I know
    I don't usually play pc shooters, but I thought I'd give this game a try
    But there are better lag-free browser games(phosphor)

    The game should be using Unreal Engine 3 by now and also a much better online gaming experience on the iDevices :)

    1. You say that as a 2.nd gen device user (or so you TA profile says)
    2. Nova elite is a game on the internet. There is no Unreal 3 web player. That's why they used unity.
    3. Unreal Engine isn't free or close to free for a big company like gameloft and the devs have to learn how to use it before they can make propper games with it.
    4. Gameloft only announced that they'd use Unreal for 4 games like 2 months ago, do you expect them to make a game in 4 months? It takes them 10-12 months for most games.
