A) You're speaking out of your rectum. B) They could have charged $15+ and it would have sold just as well. HBS isn't an iOS developer, they've not done the best job rolling the game or subsequent patch, but they've communicated WAY more than the majority of developers our there. So at this stage, the only incompetence in question here would be yours. But it is so fun when they are this level of foolishness. As for the mini situation, it seems very hit or miss with it working on that device. I've seen many people play it on their mini with no crashing issues. I do really think HBS needs to open up the beta testing to more people. As it stands, a huge number of these issues would have been caught beforehand.
Lets Play #3 with Mitch and Jordan! Don't know if you guys would care to much about this, as this is a PC/Mac related issue, but in case you do... Mitch Gitelman and Jordan Weisman will be playing a UGC picked by the fan-base as the best of the best! We need you to help us out by voting on what is the best of the best here!
I'll be honest Jeff, I'd be a lot more inclined to take part in and vote on stuff like that if we knew if and when UGC will be hitting the iPad version (also what stuff will be in it would be nice!).
i suspect a lot of people have both versions, and would suspect that the winner will then turn up on the ipad. I personally feel i have a good game for the cash and when the UGC turns up, i'll be happy but do not see it as anything to moan about. Seems to be the usual complaints, that people are never satisified.
Okay, how is this possible? Maybe the crashes are OS based, and not hardware based...? As for the UGC: Please make it happen on the iPad. I would pay some money for additional content.
yeah but its also 9.99 and not 19.99 and they have said they will be adding the best UGC, so why moan ?
Oh I'm not moaning. I already have the PC version. But imo it's not even worth it for half the price. But ymmv.
Ios7 has been causing all sorts of crashing probs on my mini. I think it has to do with the new "always on" features Apple poured in. Hell-the appstore freezes up after every download. Only way to fix it is by logging out and in again.
We are currently looking in to further optimizations for iPad 2 and iPad Mini users. We will be pushing a patch just as soon as we are able!
Guess I should revise my score for the game. Thought that it was pretty darn good till it started crashing. The story is great and the level of customization for your character seems quite robust. Gave it 1 star because I was disappointed that it didn't work properly on my device which was listed as compatible. Realistically this is a 5 star game but for now I will go with 3 stars. Hopefully they get it fixed before too long and I can upgrade it to the 5 stars it deserves.
Good News Everyone! We have isolated an issue with IOS 7 and are working diligently to get this resolved, as well as any further optimizations that we can squeeze in to allow Shadowrun Returns to run more smoothly on low memory devices as well. We do not yet have a timeframe for this patch but it is a very high priority for us. I would like to thank you all for your dedication to Shadowrun Returns, and your patience as we resolve these and other issues going forward.
Cheers Jeff, thanks for the work you guys are putting in on this game,would love to see more content for this game in the future.
This is great news Jeff, I hope it'll let others to enjoy this gem of a game! Are there any news of possible new content for the game? How bout a DLC pack of the best user generated content?
