Lol. A pre? What would be the point of that when I'll be wasting hundreds of dollars to protest Apple when they won't care and that has basically no developer base (that are actually notable) and I'll come back to the iPhone the second Eliminate is released? Pass. Agreed. And considering that it might as well could be in ngmoco's hands, you can't blame Apple without reason. They have a lot of stuff going on too. You try to do what they do and go through everry single app and update there is. ALL DAY LONG.
Just for the record (not arguing against you), ngmoco DID say on their twitter that they don't plan on holding it. That "It's in apple's hands now"
I am hoping it will be today but they say 10 to 14 days. I want touchpet's too. It could be Thursday or next monday the 25th. Have you looked at how many people say they will buy the game 208 and there are 4111 post?
I'm not sure but I think this 14 day approval time is not the average! Apple claimed to approve 95% of the Apps within the first 14 days....That's the only statistic that makes sense...Saying it's 14 days on average doesn't make sense since there are time where people submit more apps and I believe the submissions actually increase... So now that 11 days have passed ( I don't know if they count 14 business days ) the chance of Apple having a problem overall or with ELIMINATE isn't that small.... I've also seen Apps getting approved in less than 14 days and most are...So 14 days is not the average but the max in 95% of the cases... and out of the other 5% some devs actually need to resubmit because of a former rejection.
What the hell is going on here? I dont log in for a few days, and the post count went up by 3000. Yet there is no new relevant information..... Is this the lounge now....?
You are correct. But it can be 10 days but they also say two weeks too approve which is 14 days. Sometimes it is longer. Let's hope not. We all want these games. I hope like all of you they do not take there on good time and they release them very soon.
Yeah. I think there are more Apps being submitted in general now so the old 95% of all apps within 14days rule is outdated... I can imagine it's more like 18 days or so... so it may take another 8 days no problem. Apple's approval system has a HUGE flaw imho. They should clear out 80% of the queue by instantly approving large and trusted developers and companies. They should also offer instant or 1 day approval for people who are willing to paying for that... In ELMINATE's case 100$ for a 1-day approval would generate revenues for ngmoco during the last 10 days through in-app purchases that would exceed those 100$ or so...# I'm sure they didn't expect the App Store to grow that fast and didn't think that the approval of all the apps would suck up that many resources.... with 100 000 of Apps and all of those updates coming from those Apps, it's just not smart to approve each one of those every time...over and over again.
I have that lying on my desktop too...(c) by Hodapp I'm wondering though if the released version will actually show the players online...that would be awesome to know
I hope too! I would love to see some more videos before it's release...it would only take a couple of minutes to record and edit those.. Just plain menu and gameplay would make me sooooo happy while waiting.
thats absurd. A free FPS is worth far more than a 200 dollar ipod. A question: are you allowed to change "classes" in the match? or are you stuck with the weaopns you preselected before the match?
