iPad Really love lux touch-shud i buy lux dlx in its current state?

That is nearly unreadable! Would you mind trying to put at least some effort into spelling? And ffs, don't be so extremely cheap. If you have been playing something for free over months, then it should be out of the question to get that App or not...

 

I have to agree with those which are 'of the opinion that the game is buggy and slow and not worth 8 bucks'. It doesn't really offer much more than the free version, besides downloadable maps. I wasn't very interested in it after a week or so. But, if you're THAT into it, I suggest you take 'd plnge'.

 

I love this gmae

I can't really understand why people are complaining about the games ostensible slowdowns. I just don't have them.

I was really into lux touch, and it was the first game that made me look forward for its full version. Because the developers have been around for quite some time now, I got a glimpse of what might be the full experience on the iPhone once they would finish coding.

I even downloaded the free version von Mac-Computers and enjoyed it quite a bit. But I realized the game does only work for me, if it's on a touchscreen, because I do not like gaming on my homecomputer so much as a do on the road, or... elsewhere...

Now the full version (Lux Deluxe) comes with 80 or so maps, which for the most part are very very good. Additionally you can customize every other aspect of the game mechanics. Taken these two facts together therein lies endless fun in trying to beat another map. Some of them are made just beautifully! Try California Goldrush. Much love went into making these maps.

I got bored with the lite version of the game after a few weeks, because there wasn't much of a challenge after You learned how the game works, and what possibilities lie within the one map.

So for ME, personally, Lux Touch is THE most addictive game in the AppStore. I think I nearly played every map. And some can really take up for hours of gamplay. Because there is alsways a Quicksave Function, you can stop whenever you feel like it, and pick the game up whenever you like.

The experience is really solid (stable/ well balanced) and worth the money (Additional Content/ Customizable Rules).

I have no slowdowns whatsoever. I can zoom in and move the map whenever I like. This is the only time the CPU pauses the action. And because You don't really do that constantly it is really nothing to mention in the first place.

THis is my most beloved iPhone App. And i don't get people's ranting about any slowdows or any facts that would make the game unplayable.

It's just fantastic and very well done.

 

for me it's well worth it, maps, options, difficulty, resume after quit/phone call. but the buggyness gets irritating, i've sometimes encountered unconquerable land, eg you attack and the other team always keeps it, just their troup numbers go into minus, lol.

I bought it knowing there will be an update. If the dev doesn't release said update, I'm borrowing a shotgun and finding him!

 

Hi folks,

I feel the need to add my 2 cents:

Yes - on my Iphone 1stgen the game felt kinda slow.
But that was mostly due to the fact that i didn't know this statement of one of the developers:

The AI speed slider has Fastest on the Left side FYI.

Pushing the slider to the left, the game is much faster.
Yes..there are some other things that annoy.. but the dev said they are working on stability fixes and other improvements.

For me, it's one of the best games for the iphone..

Greetings,
Pug

 

Ok, first of all i'm sorry if my post seemed to be to harsh or something and the original post being done on an iPhone explains a lot, but seriously how much more time would it cost to put 'and' instead of 'nd' or 'not' instead of 'nt'? I'm no spelling Nazi or anything (god, i make a ****load of mistakes myself), but imo everybody should try to phrase his/her questions as clear as possible. Also i posted that it was 'nearly' unreadable, not that it was completely gibberish... And as far as i understand it, your initial question was if you should buy the game in it's current state. Even if there are slowdowns/etc. it is still my opinion that one should not be to cheap to buy the App, especially when that person has been using the free version for such a long period. That said, i hope you understand where i am coming from... (If there is still something to clear up, don't hesitate to pm me, so that this thread will not be cluttered with off topic stuff.)

 

one more:

DEV:"Lux DLX update 1.1 should be released the first week of March, and will fix a number of the things you mention. The save-resume bug can be avoided if you don't use scenario start mode for now."

Your no spelling Nazi yet you felt the need to spend five minutes of your life correcting it on an app discussion forum. Interesting.

 

SPECIALLY FOR BUTTERS, TAKEN FROM "THE RULES OF TOUCH ARCADE FORUM".

- Please avoid correcting spelling and grammar. English is not the primarily language for many people, and grammar discussion does not really add anything of substance to most discussions

so watch out next time. and don't act like a boss while being a newcomer here.
peace.

 

Oh for crying out loud, could we just leave it at that now and return to the original topic, please? I made a mistake (while trying to improve something...) and it won't happen again. I can't see how i acted bossy or anything, but whatever... If there still are any problems, contact me via PM, so that this thread might continue normally. (As i already stated before.)

 

First off, I have the free version. I will buy the update if people like it. But from what I have read people are unsatisfied with the current pro version, so I won't buy that.

As far as butters comment, I agree with him/her 100% This person even apologized for being harsh. And if something is just awful to read, it should be commented on. I read the post with the guidelines, but we should have standards. It would be awful to judge a foreigner, but the first post was obviously just sloppy. Even the original poster could realize this (and gave an explanation why.)

 

Imo every map by Mark Bauer is good. However I do not like the pirates maps. Try Europe 1560. It's REALLY big, and it will take you some time to conquer the whole continent...
