    Interesting reading some of the negative comments about the game. A lot of those comments are kind of how I felt about the first NYZ and why I was hesitant to get this one.

    No, this game isn't as pretty as other shooters and the controls are different. But it's a huge leap from the first one and actually does feel like a complete package.

    I won't say it's the best game on the iOS if you look at it strictly from a shooter perspective. But I'm enjoying, more than I actually thought I would. I do look forward to updates such as speeding up movement. Overall, though, it does give a nice sense of being immersed in a zombie apocolypse and am anxious to see how the story pans out.

    Sounds awesome! I think the dynamic stick would be great! Glad to see you were active on here. I think the controls are great in general. There is 3 skill trees. The tap to shoot works well for the melee players while marksmen have iron sights. And the survivor makes use of them both together. Its still nice to know other options can be available tho.

    Usually i start games on the highest difficulty. Glad i started on normal this time. Nightmare should be fun with friends :). This is my new favorite zombie shooter.

    Crazy hell, this game's awesomr!!!

    Like the first one, but with graphics and movement!!!

    Tips though, please make an "attack/trigger" button. Tapping on the screen is a bit weird when using guns. Didn't shoot where i want it to shoot

    I really want to play this game but the controls are so terrible I just can't. The movement is so slow and I have to glide my finger several times on my iPad screen just to do a 90 degree turn. Seems like an awesome game. If only it took dead triggers controls and implemented them into this game. This game would be sooooo good with good controls. So disappointed. :-(

    New control and sensitivity options coming ASAP in first update, if you can hang tight.

    For the time being, have you switched it to high sensitivity? Also, in NYZ2 there is momentum on your screen swipes... you shouldn't have to frantically swipe.

    Loved the first one when it came out and I love this one, too. But I do agree about the controls. After playing so many other FPS games on iOS, it's just hard to get used to tapping to shoot again. For one thing, at least on a smaller device, it's very difficult to get a headshot due to the fact that the zombie head will almost definitely be smaller than your finger. Still fun, but I'm eagerly awaiting that control update :p

    So about 5-6 missions in, and god these missions are hard normal! Equipment is very situational which makes each loadout have their own advantages, and disadvantages. Which I very well like. Haven't had a chance to try out co-op.. How well does that run?

    I think I'm going to give up on this game until an update arrives. I really wanted to like this game, but controlling this game on the iPad is horrendous. When the update arrives where there's always a crosshair, hopefully the devs will make it dynamic, like touch anywhere on the left side of the screen to move and touch anywhere on the right side of the screen to look around...maybe double tap to fire. I gave up on controlling this on the iPad. I can see how this would be easier for iPhone users though. Ugh, can't wait to switch to iPhone 5 next year.

    I really appreciate the depth/environment this game produces. I just have one suggestion.

    Frequently, I use the M-50 (not sure exact name, its the one bullete, massive single shot gun) and often have problems with it. The issue is that I try to hit the zoom button, and bc the zoom button is small (ipod 3g), i often shoot the gun instead of zooming, losing my shot for 20 seconds. This leads to frustration.

    Could it be possible to allow us to increase the size of/move the buttons around? Several games do this, Capcom arcades, etc. would really let me make that zoom button nice and big on the right hand side so I never get a misfire.

    Also, the zoom scope is really disorientating, anyway to have zoom on weapons with sights that still just looks down the barrel?

    Regardless, Im on ios 5, ipod 3g, and this game runs like butter. Not even a moment of slowdown, just takes a bit for the game to boot up. Really well done job in making that work.

    Thank you for the game!

    EDIT: I think there is a bug with the chain gun. Darn thing just has the most difficult time shooting. I tap the screen, I hold down my finger, I stop moving, I start moving. Nothing, 3/4 of the time, it just wont shoot. Then when it does, Im not ready, or cant aim, so I have to stop shooting, and then it wont shoot for ferever. Lol, I feelz like newb, but I cant use the chain gun. Shoulda gotten the m-16

    Not quite the Dead Trigger-killer I was expecting, but the latter seems rather stale now and NYZ2 provides a fresh take on the genre. Good job guys.

    When using the iron sights, it's tap anywhere to shoot. So line up the head down the sights... Tap anywhere :) boom! Headshot!

    Dead Trigger killer? As if it needed that title? Dead Trigger got stale quickly, underneath the pretty graphics is a mediocre overrated game. It's not in the same high status as Halo, Gears of War, or Real Racing - no need for that "killer" crap at the end of that POS Dead Trigger game.

    I'm really liking NY Zombies 2. My only real complaint is the controls - a more standard FPS style control scheme might be nice

    Well, after playing it with an iPad, I have to say the game it's really hard to play. The screen is just to big to move the finger all over it.

    I hope to play with an ironsight like CoD WaW soon. :eek:
