    Managed to tap around on the blank area and activate a button through to one of the challenge deploy screen, which lacked the righ hand info pane. Completed that challenge, so the loyalty Q is finished, but upon attempting to replay, the same freeze as before.

    WTF? Paid £6.99 for Legendary gaunlet at WG rating 84?!!

    I am a little peeved to say the least! I downloaded the new version, started up and saw a special offer for new legendary gauntlet and then new livery. So of course I snapped it up to only discover the gauntlet has a WG rating of 84?! I am level 40 and so this is a total useless piece of gear. I can only hope this is an error and I haven't paid the money for such a low level gauntlet?

    Agree with this, my current Legendary Netherand Blade seems better by far...hope I am wrong on this when upgrading the Gauntlet.

    Not sweating the price, jut the weapon lol, haven't checked out the livery as my current set up has a high rate of item drops

    Good news - the Events mode should be back up and running again now. We've set up a special Event this weekend to win a legendary Thunderstrike Gauntlet

    Hi DarthGinge - not sure what's happened here. The weapon you're offered should be scaled to your level (so you'd get something like a 280 wargear rating Hand of Wrath). If this isn't the case, send me a PM with your UserID and I'll make sure you get given something more appropriate to your level. You can find out your UserID in the options menu in the bottom right.

    Loving the update on my iPad Pro. I noticed that support for the Pencil, was added. What are the new gestures? I've tried taping around and can only figure out two weapons. Any help would be great.

    I've also noticed a glitch at the end of Crusher in Chapter 10, the last mob of Orks at the end of the mission even after dying won't go away without hitting their corpses another 20ish times. If you don't the level won't complete.

    Yup. Happens to me too, every time you run any of the modes on the Crusher map. At a minimum it means you can't ever get a time bonus because the clock has long since run out though I have gotten 3 medals anyway. Interestingly, for me they stack on the other side of that ramp. Can't get the image tag to work here so I can post it.

    The image tag doesn't work for me either, I uploaded to photobucket, copied the IMG link and then pasted directly under my comment. That should work.

    A few Thunderstrike observations...

    I didn't want to post immediately, because this latest update has been everything it was billed and more, but some initial impressions after my first 24 hours:

    Dredmire patrols look freakin' wicked -- they may be just a jungle reskin, but the effect is impressive...and adds to the challenge factor, because Chaos forces all blend in against the walls.

    Patrol difficulty does indeed feel seriously nerfed (I'm seeing melee-opponent levels in the high 30s, versus the scaled 43-47 belt pre-patch), but on the flip side of that so are the rewards. Crates are about 20 levels down from the 180-level gear in pre-patch stock drops, and my XP and ore intake are down about 10 percent. I'm not sure if that's intended, but the net effect looks like I'll be getting worse gear from patrols at level 50 than I was at 45...a small price to pay for nigh-invincibility, perhaps, but then I already had that from forging Toughness-focused gear.

    I'm still gauging how I feel about the new event structure, but at a glance it feels like there are more chances to win legendary weapons I'll never get. Thinning out the winning tiers down to the top five players makes a lot of these things feel more like the Powerball lottery than a contest average players have any chance of succeeding at. Once again, I'd suggest immediate award of a legendary weapon upon placing in a top tier, as well as enhancing the lower reward tiers...the item crates on the original event table helped a lot with that.

    Events also seem bugged in their current form, with at least two not registering my performances in them. I had a score in the 2/5/16 Gauntlet event (rank 1736, score 108,013) that didn't register a visible rank of any kind, although I got a reward for it when it ended. In addition, I've got two runs on the currently active Tier V event (best score 210,000 or so) that aren't even displayed, despite the exhaustion of both my free and ad-based play chances -- see the attached screenshot.

    Also, having hit the forge quest demanding that I forge 20 rare items, I'm just going to come right out and say it: forge quests of any kind are killjoys and should be removed from the game. They're not advanced by conventional gameplay, they're poorly rewarded relative to the hideous amount of time they take, and most damningly of all they're simply not fun. If somebody insists on keeping them, they need to have HUGE rewards -- I'm talking a legendary crate at minimum, given that I got an orange gauntlet for one-shotting Nekkruncha in, oh, two minutes. As of Saturday morning, I'm at an hour of farming low-level crates (which seems to produce far fewer greens or blues post-patch), plus forge time and frustration from having five of seven rolls to make or keep an item blue fail. But hey -- I've only got 16 more blues to go, and a mere seven to clear the re-upped loyalty quest running alongside this one.

    I was going to post about the forge 20x requirements but you beat me to it.

    And I've just completed a forge 10x items only to be hit by forge 20x

    Looks like it's a matter of pressure, try deep pressing with the Apple Pencil

    Also: this needs to be refined. I like the experience but currently very much less precise/as fast than touch input

    I would like a more defined way to use the cannon weapon with the Apple Pencil as deep presses zoom with he Stubber and Also fire the cannon at times unintentionally

    Any light on this?

    Yeah this website is a little off. I'm a web developer and things here are weird, though it looks like they're using a third party forum software. The main login link at the top of the page doesn't even work for me. I have to click reply and use the login prompt there. Image wise I guess they don't work with local file references. Need an actual HTML link.

    Wait. What? How did you one shot anybody? And get a legendary reward?!? Where do we find notes on how this is possible? (Googling anything only finds gamesite reviews from 2015) Is there an underground secret society that knows how to get 300K + points on events and other tricks? Cuz I get half those scores and I think I'm playing pretty well. I blast every possible destructible, kill pretty much everything, get boosts and multipliers etc. but can't get anywhere near a top score in anything.

    Oh, I didn't literally one-shot him -- you can't, because the "kills" take off his Gatling gun and missile launcher before you go to melee. I did, however, finish the mission on my first attempt, just like every other mission in the campaign...once you hit 900 Toughness or so, there's almost nothing in the current areas that can slow you down let alone harm you. A Lord of Skulls attack, for instance, does about 10 percent damage.

    As for challenge scores, well...those I seriously can't figure out. They seem disproportionately affected by speed, as some people report, but damned if I can figure out how to physically make a Knight move faster. My best theory is that there are specific enemies that block the way, and killing them first keeps you moving...either that, or iPads and Pencils permit a degree of precision I can't achieve on my iPhone, much the way PC Dead Space worked so much better than its console version.

    Score: 1,250,000?

    On the first new level of Chapter 10, 'Through the Portal', the global top score is... 1,250,000.

    ONE MILLION, two hundred and fifty thousand.

    How is that even remotely possible?
    (I'd post a pic, but this forum isn't so good at that, and you can all have a look for yourselves)

    I'm not sure if this is another issue but usually off forums I get emails when someone has replied, I've checked my inbox my junk and nothing off this site. I have to keep the page open and manually look through to see if anyone has replied.

    Yeah I must of done that mission about 6 times before I got it with a loot booster if that even helps, it's not a hard level(unless your talking 3 medals). I just kept doing it till I got it, eventually it drops. I wish there were more legendary drops like that as all the other missions don't drop anything good enough for me. All my gear is over 300 atm but need a better shield and helm as upgrading won't get them high enough.
