Discussion in 'iPhone and iPad Games' started by Fastbridge, Nov 15, 2012.

  1. For the next couple of days play this, it's free and a new release, you can always play Nova 3 later, plus it'll probably go on sale for xmas. Shadowgun is where it's at this week.
     
  2. Me too, that would be too cool. Anyone playing tonight? Look for me, connector777. Be floating in and out.

    Well you might know this already but in the game Star Warfare TA players created a group and coordinate so they can play together but that's because that game has features where a member can create a game with a pass code to enter for other TA members only within the game itself without using GC
    Don't know if this game has that because I don't have a device at the moment that can support and play it!
     
  5. What is zone control? Haven't tried it yet.

    I hate the torrents. Any idea how to escape the fire? Also shitstormiswrecking a big havoc.

    Come on Madfinger release a weapon independent mode like instagib.
     
  7. Are there any options for battles with premium only users? That would be pretty cool, and it would make it hard to hack into I would figure.

    Well, hopefully he'll learn something. I realize I get worked up about this way too easily, so I'm trying to shape up.

    Congratulations!

    I like the model; if you're (as in, not you) that irritated, the Tapjoy offers let you get $1 worth of gold for just downloading a 15MB app.

    Thing is, I think it is. It's just rough around the edges. When it gets a big update to add more gametypes and maps, I'm sure it'll be a gem on the iOS.
     
  9. Are you sure it's not server lag? For the most part on my new ipad, I am getting 30 fps, when there is a ton of stuff on the screen like a couple of players, then yeah, it does slowdown a bit, but for the most part it is smooth to me. Maybe you will have to buy an ipad 4 if you want no dips in framerates I guess.
     
  10. You guys on ipad 4 can't play on ultra high? With my new ipad, I go and change the setting to ultrahigh and get ipad retina graphics, looks like dead trigger. But when I exit the program and come back in, it defaults on high. i wish they would fix that cause its annoying, and my new ipad is playing better on the ultrahigh setting vs high.
     
  11. Yeah, yesterday, everyone was playing with rifles, today, there is more diversity, but man, tons of people using those plasma guns. So maybe inapp people will have a far advantage I dunno. But heck the games free, so no complaints from me.

    My kill ratio is still the same old sucky 2 deaths for one kill like yesterday. But now, I gotta run more at those plasma guns, cause they don't reload as fast, but man, they hit hard.

    I think the problem of hackers is very real. I just saw somewhere that there's hacks for money, gold and XP. Damn!

    On a separate note, I dislike the fact premium users get 50% more cash. I don't mind the XP, but cash makes a lot of difference.

    Which Tapjoy offer let's you do just that?
     
  14. Well, I must be getting better. Finally results where I got better kill to death ratios where I am positive on kills.

    And I finished in 7, my lucky number!

    I still suck though. :eek:

  15. Yeah, you got a very good point. And I guess buying an ipad 4, 32 gb for $600 would be tougher too. Maybe you can convince your parents you need an ipad for school?
     
  16. Somehow, I doubt this is what they want to hear haha. :p
     
  17. We love you too, ignore all the flame wars, they just make good reading on the john, just remember not to drop your iphone down the toilet. :p

    If I asked them that, they would just say "Here, use mine". Plus, that'd be lying, and that's bad or something.



    On topic again, that iAP models frightens me... I honestly hope no other developers pick up on it. Basically, Madfinger is saying "Hey, give us your money and we'll give you an advantage over everyone else!" Which is very, very annoying.

    I don't think there is going to be as much contraversy this time cause this game started off as a freemium, and also, everyone has learned from Dead Trigger including the developers, TA, and us gamers.

    Since it is freemium, I think people will kind of expect things like inapps and premium accounts and stuff. I dunno, maybe I am not a hardcore FPS gamer, but this one has outstanding graphics like Dead Trigger with good multiplayer action like in Trigger Fist.

    Great for short quick multiple games. I love the fact that I can sit here switching from Toucharcade and posting, to going in to play a two minute game, then come back here, etc. That is totally awesome.

    The game does have it's quirks, but Madfinger has always been good about updating their games, so I really look forward to see what will come next, cause it is pretty good as it is, even better than what I would label as a tech demo.

    But it is simple mindless fun with brilliant graphics. If one really wants to make too much of an issue with this game, then yeah, you will be disappointed. But for free, heck, it is fun for me.
