    My friend has an ipod 5 on ios 7.0.2 and it works. What he did was close some apps before starting the game

    That is a odd, my game did show the game ending. However the game has glitched and I've lost all of my saved multiplayer squads. Not game breaking but irritating!

    Definitely buggy unfortunately. Though have to admit still loving it and wanting some more matches if anyone fancies it?

    Oh I'm .P0tshot. By the way :)

    Whoa, I just noticed something weird.
    So I bought the game when it was on sale 2 week ago and been having crashes on my iPad mini. I never sync my iPad mini with my PC and just download them directly on my mini.

    Today I noticed that the App Store was saying there's an update for XCOM. I thought, great! They fixed it, but it was only the 1.3.0 update that was already released. Thinking that was weird since the update came out before I bought the game I finally synced my iPad mini apps with my PC (which was a whole other problem that took 30+ minutes).

    It seems that it downloaded and installed the 1.1.0 version of XCOM and not the newer 1.3.0 version. I wonder if this is what has happened with all the people who are getting crashes. I hope that's what's happening and 1.3.0 will fix it, but I'm not holding my breath.

    I'm downloading the update now on iTunes and going to sync it back since I read somewhere that doing that causes less errors than directly installing it on the iPad. It's a 1.76GB update so it might take awhile.

    Anyone else having trouble downloading the new 1.4 stability update? Every time I try it says I purchased it with another account (which I did not) and fails.

    Putting any reports of crashes aside, I am impressed to see 2K actively Persuing patch fixes for this.

    impressed ...by what exactly?

    what would impress me is if a developer could release a game that DIDN'T require weeks/months to actually be 99% playable for all those who shell out good money for it.


    THAT, would be impressive.

    I guess I'm easily impressed then.

    Plenty of big name brands put out buggy games and then abandon.
    2k showing willingness to listen to complaints and remediate, I guess impresses me.

    Especially for a game that's one of the most expensive in the App Store!
