    Now a few more bugs, today, NovaRift crashed twice while in arcade mode after i had paused the gave and tried to resume, also it crashed once in online mode after the score page came up and i tried to close it.

    Yeah
    NOTHING more annoying than having one side of your steering GONE none the less this game is still frickin amazing and one of my friends caught me playing and was like "how much is THAT! that looks fun!" I responded "yeah it is but I'm testing it so you can't buy it." as I shewed him out of the room so I could keep all of it's outstanding awesomeness to the testers.
    Anyone want to do an online match

    Crashes have been in abundance today! Between chat crashes and crashes after the game scores it has really gotten quite depressing. At one point today we had four people all online at once, and that is when 45% of the crashes occurred. It seems to me that the more people you have on and playing, the more frequent the crashes happen, however, the server still crashes occasionally even if you are the only one online.

    I've been emailing my impressions. Are we supposed to be posting them here instead? I would recommend opening a beta testing private social group. Anyway, I agree that it seems the crashes/lags increase with the more players online. I played last night against 2 other players. There was an awesome shot where Monster Gila had killed me, but I was able to fire a torpedo as my ship blew up destroying his ship too. It looked pretty cool! :) I really like how the shots show destruction on the ships (ie lose a wing, engine, fire power, etc) and it effects how the ship handles.

    No one was online this afternoon when I was, I'll try again tonight.

    A tester group is where beta testers can speak about the game in private.
    I'm starting up a match in room 1 if anyone wants to play. I'll be there until around 11:45 eastern and then I'm out

    So, I made an epic kill. My opponent had their back to an asteroid and I was in the comet, so I used my shotgun and it knocked them back into the meteor, killing them. I thought it was amazing and it really shows some of the things you can do in this game. I think multiple maps would be great, different backgrounds, but varying asteroid intensity would be a great thing for maps, to either use as traps or for cover.

    this game is great so far, the only things i recommend changing is a couple more openfeint achievements and a save option in the offline arcade mode

    +1 :D... and everything else i said in that HUGE report! ;)

    But really, i never thought of that, having an auto-save feature after every wave in single player would be amazing! When i'm playing and i'm on wave 20+ and the app crashes so that i can't resume where i was i either A. sit my iPod down and do something else, or B. play a different app.
