I'm getting pretty disappointed with Backflip. They get us to start over from scratch on basically the same game with a few new or modified rooms and to pay for it and then they abandon it. The Aerial Armada room still doesn't report scores to Gamecenter. It's been over 7 months. They should at least get this version working properly. I've sent an email a few months ago and got one back saying they were "known issues". Can't they at least get AA to report the scores? Is that too much to ask?
Don't disagree Bill -- the antipathy that BFS is showing is amazing and disturbing. As an old programmer, I would guess that fix for AA should take about 4 hours total. Sheesh. Not sure I'll buy another BFS game due to lack of support post purchase. Sad.
I bought the regular version on the iPhone and I also have the deluxe version downloaded. Can someone tell me which one is better? I don't want to have to pay again to remove the ads in the deluxe. My original scores don't transfer to deluxe. The deluxe uses the full wide screen of the iPhone 5 but the original one doesn't. Is the deluxe just a money grab? Why is the original not updated with widescreen support? Which one do you suggest I keep playing?
The BFS news is that a majority share in the company was bought by Hasbro. Supposedly the management is staying the same, and staying in Boulder co. Seemed like something was going on with them. http://www.backflipstudios.com/2013/07/hasbro-purchases-majority-stake-in-backflip-studios/
Interesting -- but doesn't help explain why customer support in terms of fixing bugs, etc. is so dismal.
Oh yeah I agree. They've been sucky. Months ago Jables said new content coming, recently he said - @thejables: @jbfoxtail Yes, still at Backflip. Nothing on the RB front right now but we're always considering our options. :/ And they are continually working on DragonVale. Boo.
eff the dragons, what now Ragdoll monopoly? Connect pudge? I'd google hasbro games and come up with funnier ones if I got some sleep last night. Doll off!
Sad It's a tragedy to see the dream is over... No money in ragdoll. Now the big corporation is involved, it will all be about the $$$$$. It's been fun peeps. Wonder if Bill is still playing?
I'm still playing but not every day and not for more than a few minutes. I only have a couple of things I want to improve and one shave I'm trying for. Since I'm the only one playing it will be nice to retire on top of the world.
Yeah, I was holding onto a shred of hope, but you're right, big corp has a new agenda. Waah. Enjoy the top, Bill!
Hey y'all. I've been keeping my fingers crossed for new content too but the writing is on the wall :/ Haven't played for months now. Since I refuse to look at the leaderboards for fear of getting sucked back in, I've decided to disclose my secret Plains shave. Nick of Time is a 3. Couldn't get it to work on the "deluxe" version, only beta. Don't ask me about details. My dollin days are done. If any of you are bored,come join iDoc and me in our "Clash of Clans" clan. PM for the details if interested And to echo Frizz...doll off
It's been fun people. Maybe we can have a Ragdoll Convention in 10 years. X, why don't you be a pal and send me the replay of that beta shave? That's the only shave I've been trying lately and it might not be the same way as you. I promise I will only use it on Deluxe.
Clash of clans This could be the next time sink for you all. It appeals to us dollers with OCD. Has the social aspect of chat. Has the building fun of Dragonvale. And it has a ridiculous leaderboard almost impossible to top. Lots of strategy in attacking and defense. Yes, that's a challenge Bill. Right up your alley!
I'm not giving up hope! I read this on another press release so maybe there still could be an RB update or RB4. "With the deal, Backflip will continue making their own games, and then theyll also publish games using Hasbros brands, which include Monopoly, Transformers, My Little Pony and Magic: The Gathering."
The leaderboard was hacked yesterday. I'm showing as number 2. I friended him on Game Center and he has a 31,000 point lead over everyone in Patchwork Meadows which is impossible. He has 45 out of 45 achievements and we know that is impossible. Especially since he has no rankings in most of the other levels. They are just leading me in overall score by 2 points. I'll get that back but I wish I knew how to get rid of the cheater.
