    It looks like the latest version is already there, a little bit earlier than I anticipated but either way enjoy it folks :)

    Yep, great! :)

    If you tap Facebook icon on main menu you go to RR2 site, not FB page: is it right?

    Where are the new cups? I went to championship and it still has the original races but no new ones. Unless crab man cup means something else?

    There are no new events in the update, just new cars, replay mode, bug fixes etc etc. should be 7 countries for the championship, 3 cups for skill and 3 cups for rally cross. The next update will be more tracks when I get back from holiday!

    (I also need to move the database to another server but this gives me a chance to remove the dodgy times that appeared because of bugs in the past!)

    A golden thumbs up for improving what was already a great game.

    I really don't understand some negative App Store reviews, but people are strange. :rolleyes:

    Indeed! New ones or old ones? Some people have older devices, some peoples expectations are higher than can be achieved etc etc!

    You are a very patient man. This is still iOS game of the year. No contest as far as racing and feedback, if there's a poll at the end of this year my votes in. Even bought it separate for my sons phone and his cousin. Keep this track record and I pray for your success! Keep sideways, bruddas!

    Edit: and Sistas!

    Cheers dude!

    I'm back from a well earned break, and will be ploughing on with more goodness for the next few months, watch this space as I have some great ideas to come (in the form of the next Rush game :)!

    Hopefully a quick turnaround on this one, and a game out before the end of the year.

    I have a 4S and performance is fantastic most of the times, so quite possibly bad comments are because people expect it to perform fantastically well on a potato phone as mine: all details maxed out, 120FPS, etc.

    I've had one problem though, but I think it's because of my device and the RAM available. Maybe you can confirm it: When racing the US rally (the long one, High Peaks I think it's called), at around 1/3 of the rally, the sky separates into three polygons, the scenery seems to vanish as I approach to it (quite possibly because it didn't load well/all to memory), and all of a sudden the missing polygons/road load, but the sky texture disappears and the sky is black from there to the end of the race. At first I thought that there was a weather change from day to night, but afterwards I noticed this wasn't the case.

    It's the only problem I've had with the game thus far, and I'm 90% sure it's because the track is so long that the game has problems loading everything onto the 512MB RAM. The other tracks and competitions (even the 6-car races) load just fine.

    Could be RAM, it is quite intensive that track

    So I've got another "mini" update coming, basically its stuff I've added to the "next" game, but this can benefit from it too.

    I've actually had to migrate the leaderboards over to another server which was something on my backlog for a while, hopefully you won't notice too much difference once these have been migrated (except you'll need the new version)

    I've also fixed quite a few little niggly bugs with cloud saves being too large and stopping people from progressing.

    I've also added the start of a cockpit mode, at the minute it is the same model for every car with slightly different textures, but it certainly makes it feel different. There is no animated character in the cockpit though, that will have to come later!

    At a guess it'll be with you sometime next week.
