    I trash all the "cosmetic only" items, as well as low-level items from which I have a higher level one.

    I also get the "friend list" loading bug, plus the bug where videos don't update (iPhone only, on iPad the still renew once in a while). I also sometimes get a bug where the "use 1 energy to recharge a character" doesn't show the 2h timer, just the "recharge using 1 battery".

    Im pretty sure those errors got to do with being connected to the network via internet

    When i don't have reception on the phone itll allow me to play the game essentially offline

    The first Pocket Mine was a great freemium title, can't wait to play this one!

    Who said the stats of some players were weird? I think you're right. I've just upgraded my pick axe from 200 to a special "gold" status, where it gets reset but now I can re-upgrade it to a maximum of 210. That means that the people with a pick axe who have "206 hits" maximum can't be correct, unless they've tampered with the game archives…

    Hey Guys,

    Some glitches that you mentioned are caused by a poor network connection (or no connection at all) - Friends/Leaderboards/Loadouts Timer are all "connected" features. We'll try to improve the visual feedback.

    @VirtualBoyFreak, Above 200 hits, each pick upgrade adds 2 hits (instead of 5.), so 206 hits is possible.

    Ah, ok then, 206 with level 93 is pretty understandable.

    That's weird because that's the first thing I assumed it was since it would make sense that way but this occurs when I'm completely connected with 2 to 3 WiFi bars. Sometimes I'm by my router as well. Unless it's sensitive to small fluctuations which wouldn't be a good thing.

    Btw, a "clear all" button in the requests page would do wonders if there gets to be too many.

    Got two edited players now. One I keep loaded with bomb power ups and the second loaded with banks. Depended on whether I'm grinding for cash or going the distance, they seem like a good tandem.

    Don't forget the seeker of rare items. I think that one with crate increasers would also make sense to complete collections. Nonetheless, I'm getting MANY more things by blowing everything up with the demolition dude (grenades ahoy! :D)

    Yeah, I saw your set up. Pretty sweet. I had more bomb power ups than grenades and I love it when you hit a chain reaction and drop forty feet or so. Thanks for the tip on the seeker. That'll be my third dude. Only at level 36 so I should have it unlocked soon.

    What I'd really like to see is a "recycle duplicates" button in the inventory… by the time I noticed I could get 5 green cubes for each common item sold, I had gathered hundreds of items. I spent 30 minutes selling duplicates one by one!

    I have a bomb guy, a relic guy, and a cash guy right now. They all work really well. My relic guy even has an item that drops precious ore randomly every now and then so he makes so much money. Just looking for better gear and more legendary cards.

    If either of you can post a pick or list what you use on your relic guy I'd greatly appreciate it.

    This update has made me a very happy man! The performance improvements on my iPad 2 are huge and have taken it from a flawed gem to an absolute hit for me. No more stuttering, crashing or slow down so I can just focus on the gameplay.

    Nice to see the lightning get a boost, it was easily the worst explosive. A boost for the worm is appreciated too, though it had it's uses still. Maybe a faster fuse/quicker movement card would be nice for the worm.

    I'd still love to see some options for the scroll speed like the original; I've found myself struggling at times when I've gone off screen as the catch-up speed can prove at least panic-inducing if not fatal. Maybe I'm just getting old but I'd quite like a steady pace so I can concentrate.

    Other than that, I love it. I really do!

    I like the new additions. Finally the lightning block is useful. I avoided it so much earlier. I like the "missing" message on the artifacts. So does that only show when you're one or two away from completion? I'm also still looking for the mini game...

    Do all characters cost gems now? Or were they always like that? I thought there were some high cash cost characters. The Japanese girl character is adorable. That's gotta be my favorite design so far :)
