    If you are missing any items after updating, simply use the Restore button in the Market. This will return all your items to you.

    About time they released an update! Some of my favorite planes were added in this one.

    One thing I noticed though is that the stats on the planes are weird. It seems that Mk-II version of the planes have worse stats than the MK-I version.

    For example Yak-3-I has:

    4 Speed
    4 Armor
    5 Firepower
    4.5 Handling

    Yak-3-II has:

    3.5 Speed
    4 Armor
    4.5 Firepower
    4.5 Handling

    And it's very similar across the board. A lot of the II planes are worse than I. I have a feeling that this wasn't intended and the stats are supposed to be the other way around.

    Wanted to buy a Yak but will hold off until more info.

    The stats are currently as intended. The naming of the planes does not necessarily refer to the performance. Unique names were added to similar planes so that you can tell them apart easier when using the Internet Quickmatch functionality.

    Ah, that explains it. OK now I can buy my Yak!

    Oh btw, when did the icon change to "lite"? Are you guys planning to offer a full version of the game with all of the planes and missions? Or has it always been that way and I'm going crazy?

    U don't get any point for downing any plane.
    The person who is last to fire his rocket and destroy the base get 1 flag while other team members get nothing.

    This lead to everyone switch to rocket and no one give a damn thing about defending the base and shooting down attackers. Everyone just rush to the opposing base and race to destroy it. It's very weird that both sides just fly past each other as if all are transparent. This isn't fun at all. And everyone seems to prefer this way because there's no one starting a TP or FFA room anymore.

    The update has it's woes it seems. :(

    OK than here they are (including me):

    11th <?> 94938
    12th Orion 88350
    13th V 85352
    14th Keebler 84470
    15th Frumius 78037

    That DTB game really favors the rocketeers! I guess they should have advantage sometimes.:rolleyes:

    Oh well if that's the case I think I would still prefer FFA and TP. Everyone is probably playing DFB, because it's new. I won't be able to check everything out until much later on though:(

    It's worse now because there can be 10 players per game. So far it seems my 3G phone is not coping well:(. It feels like I'm flying through soup! The Internet connection where I am right now is excellent so that can't be the reason. Our maybe it's my yak? Should try my old mustang to see if any difference.:confused:

    Update: No difference between yak and mustang in 10 player game. I experienced just as bad performance with either one. In fact as the players start coming in and fill up the room the planes performance degrades noticeably.

    Yep on wifi. Just ran speed test and my results are 1687kpbs download, 1707kpbs upload with ping at 73 ms. That's using a local server (Perth) now connecting to a Singapore server the only significant change was a reduction in ping to 160 ms. It's the noticeable slowing down as players come in that makes me think the 3G's processing power might make a difference. But I suppose more data needs to transfer as well the more players, so internet speed will matter as well. Anyone else out their experiencing this? Might just be my imagination or faulty phone.

    Not really... I can down a base almost as quick with cannon and MG and take out two enemies on the way :)
