    Is anyone having issues when watching ads for stars? Sometimes the video will say "buffering" at the top right, but it will not give you the option to exit from watching the ad. The ad will be forever buffering, then I have no option but to close the app and reopen it.

    It would be nice to just close the ad and continue playing. I like the option to watch ads as I have already purchased the coin doubler. But if the devs can address this it would nice. By the way, I am running cable modem so it cannot be internet issues.

    When you upgrade weapons do they get more powerful looking?

    Or do they only change appearance going to a different ship?

    It be nice to see your weapon progress as you level them up. I got my cannon one away from being maxed and it looks exactly the same as it did with no upgrades.

    Was hoping to see my weapons look like the intro planes after upgrades. My cannons are upgraded, missles, cannons... All look the same as they did at zero.

    They will change appearance, but I'm guessing your weapons are not yet fully powered up.
    When you reach Max it'll reset to Tier Two upgrades, and you'll be able to continue upgrading. I believe that the Cannon and side-guns have three tiers with ten upgrade slots each. Can't recall how many the rest of the weapons have, but it's minimum two tiers each.

    In Sky Force 2014, there was an update to the game that added even more tiers to the some weapons, and I'll hasard a guess that the same will happen to this game.
    At the same time, they added Nightmare Mode to all levels. I sure hope they'll do the same in Sky Force reloaded, as I've already completed Hard Mode on level One.

    I just got a great permanent card, which wasn't present in Sky Force reloaded.
    "Activate Laser Dispensers".
    There's "Pods" placed on the levels, and if you hover over them, they'll reward you with a Laser.

    I'm guessing there'll be cards with Bomb and Shield Dispensers also.

    Great idea.

    I've just unlocked Level Eight.

    What an awesome and absolutely Epic Boss fight.

    This game rocks!

    Great game, but I don't understand how the cards work. I got four of them :
    Shield chance
    Faster human rescue
    Better magnet
    Fastest shooting speed

    Last two cards did activate when I got them, but I can't activate them anymore, there's obviously something I'm missing... First two, maybe they're activated all the time ? Don't know.

    Sorry to say, even though i supported SF2014 and purchased its IAPs, i won't be purchasing the IAPs in this one. Why?

    -after 9 runs, a card drops
    -woohoo
    -1 minute later get killed by boss
    -card lost
    -frustration ensues
    -rinse and repeat*2 days.

    So, my major frustration from SF2014 made it here. I shudder to even think about the blueprint drops.

    Unless the card drops are massively buffed, OR we get to actually keep the effing card when it effing deems to drop after death, im not supporting this.

    The more common cards have a duration for its active effect. You need to pick up those cards again if you really want their effect, but they'll still run out. There are much rarer cards that have a permanent effect.

    The drop rates are horrendous. Reason why i dropped SF2014 after i completed most of it. This one im currently enjoying, but im sure it wont stay either if the drop rates prove to be really bad.

    Ok, thanks for the explanation, appreciated. So I have two rare permanent cards, and two blue ones that will activate for 15 minutes if I pick them again. Quite clear now, but a little ingame explanation would have been nice.

    Agree. I don't like to be pushed to play when I don't want to.

    To all that are worried about the drop rate of cards and ship parts, don't worry.
    I've already have 7 permanent cards and 4 temporary.
    That's more than I have after more than two years of playing Sky Force 2014.

    I also now have 6 complete ships.

    It's a Vast improvement.

    I believe that the drop rate increase as you play the levels on hard and insane, but I'm not sure about it.

    Edit: Oh, and so far I haven't had any repeat cards which was a horrible frequent occurrence in their previous game.

    I got the Enforcer and I didn't play Sky Force 2014...
    I bought every IAP but the 5000 coins and I played only the first level.

    Ok, I love this game and have already earned 4 stars on all 8 levels on the normal difficulty. I bought the double stars, no ads, faster plane regen as soon as store showed up. I have never once seen a video ad, which makes the below all the more bizarre and frightening in a way.

    I use very little cell data as I am usually on wifi, so I was surprised to get a message from ATT saying I have used 75% of my data. I was browsing to see what app was using so much and was shocked to see this game using 270 MB!!!! Are you kidding me?!?!?! Why is this game using so much. I would love an answer from the dev on this!!! Could be a glitch in my version, but as I said. No video ads, no ads at all so there should be nothing using up this much. Everyone else might want to check. Hopefully this is a fluke. I have since turned off notifications for the game and turned off cellular data.

    Wow, glad I have unlimited!

    Billy and GiHubb- thanks for all the plane parts. Almost have enough for a new one! Are you getting gifts when I click on the stars next to your name that appear every now and then? Is that the process?

    If anyone else wants to add me on GC, feel free. Same username as here.

    It's interesting to see how Fast people want to progress through the game. I look at this as a two year project.

    Hi,

    I'm Marek from Infinite Dreams. Thank you for providing this information.

    The amount of data downloaded that you see is due to the video ads that we have in the game. Most mobile games that use video ads will generate this kind of traffic.

    However if you've purchased "No Ads" IAP it should definitely not happen. This seems to be a bug on our end and will be fixed with the next update.

    Thanks for finding that and apologies for inconvenience.
