    Agreed I was beginning to think nobody would make a deep strategy game for mobile. I had started talking about getting a computer again. Now all I want to do get a IPad more powerful than my Mimi 2. Hoping this fall will see a more powerful Mimi.

    Love this game.

    You can't read the comments above as a dev and not get re-invigorated. Great stuff.

    We are going to release PC version on Monday.
    After that we are going to update the iOS and Android version to match PC, and later on keep all the platforms on the same level.

    Thanks for the update on timing for the Steam version of PC. What are the main items that you will then have to update for iOS and Android to bring them in line with the Steam version?

    This is a great game on the iPad. I can now play games of 250 plus turns with no real issues.

    Like large maps wth multiple planes? I always get issues when the turn counter gets up there

    Oooh! Sale! Or is it a permanent price drop? The only 4X game I've ever really played is Civilisation back in the 1990s, but I've been thoroughly intrigued by this (hence noticing the sale).

    So, do I need Planar Conquest in my life?

    I think any iOS gamer who looks for products that ignore perceived "limitations" of the platform do!

    Completely agree. This is the most "computery" game I've found on iOS. Very deep. It's a PC game with a great mobile UI, not a PC game dumbed down for mobile.

    OK - I'm in. Might not boot it up for a while, but I'm very intrigued. 141 forum pages can't be wrong, right?

    Price drop for the game

    Heads up that there's a price drop for the game -- just happened a few hours ago.

    PC Version

    Sorry I haven't popped my head in here in a while, time has been limited while finishing up a work project. I've been playing mostly on the PC beta, really excited for the initial release tomorrow. The unifying upgrade for PC/iDevice/Android will be amazing. Great job devs!

    Same loading / gamebreaking bug as Lickzy!

    Just would like to add that I have the same bug as Lickzy. I encountered it already two times in games, turn allways in 150+, meaning several hours gameplay down the drain, REALLY anoying!

    Playing the latest version (as is available today) on an IPAD 4th generation. So far I have not been able to finish a single game. Although if the game would be working as intended it would be a great game... looking forward to a bugfix... but until than I am out... :mad:

    Super sorry to hear this as I fully know your frustration but at the same time, glad to know I'm not the only one and people can stop thinking I'm crazy.

    I find that if I play smaller maps with less AI I'm ok, but I also don't find this challenging. I hope the devs get their act together sooner than later.

    @Malban,

    Sorry to hear about that, could you please send us your save games, so we can take a look at the issue?

    Well sending the save file is not as easy as it may sound... since I can not load the game and thus not save it under a different name (as required) ... any Trick around I might access the file and send it with?

    You don't have to rename it. When you do the "sendsaves" thing, it sends all your current saves to Wastelands.

    I tried sending the save states. I got no response from the game whether something actually was sent. I am at a holiday location - which is somewhat "remote" - and have only an unreliable cell connection to the internet.
    I also wrote via the "contact" feature of WI a short message. Please let me somehow know whether you received the game states, otherwise I'd retry...

    Regards
    Malban
