    So i guess no METAL support is in, at least nothing new was added like shadow maps or etc.
    If anyone want to see the difference compared to PC version, check it here.:

    Compared to PC version, we also have lower textures.
    That is understandable as PC version have around 8GB of disk space.

    They should add some shader effects nevertheless.

    nothing is confirmed i'm afraid, but i guess adding support for METAL could show more gfx effects without lowering the performance and still bring higher fps also.

    It seems the newest update adds ads to the game. Do not update if you like your game to be as free.

    not too happy about the ads shouldn't it be ad free since we payed a premium price for a game that was almost un-usable in the beginning and now they update to add ads in there What's going on here lol

    He seems pretty relaxed to me.. Look at what I wrote the page before.. I'm the one that needs to relax lol.. If they would advertise games that aren't 2k I would completely flip out.. People buying premium games don't expect to see ANY ads pop up.. I'm honestly done with 2k not because of the ads but because of the mediocre games they release..

    Sorry if it's been asked before, but how do you listen to past recordings? I picked up quite a few and thought I'd listen to them later but now I can't find them, and one I did listen to had the code to a door, which I've now forgotten.

    Should be in the same menu as your map. There is a tab dealing with recordings.

    It never Run at narive resolution on my iPhone 6 plus,and also on The iPad air Run at non native res,same on iPad air 2..If they Run at native res on iPad air 2,you had a 10fps..it can't handle..

    I totally believe you if we are referring to the ipad 3 or 4, but I can't imagine the air 2 chugging at 10 fps at native res. It's more powerful than you're giving credit. (Forgot how the wording was for that) Mix in some metal API and you'd probably close in the gap to the console versions.
