1.28 sadness

[Helio]

yes I understand you can play on the old version, but some old version of a game no longer interests me when i cant access all the cards I just purchased and want to use, also I cant actually compete with any of my friends who all use the latest version. Its like playing WOW or something but never playing with the latest version, just being stuck in the past forever.

How did you purchase the cards if you are on 1.27? Sounds like you do have access to 1.28 (probably via a computer) so you can play 1.28 if you wanted to, so your bitching is pointless.

Oh sorry guys. My bitching is pointless. Helio pointed out that I obviously own a computer of some sort so Im just wasting everyone's time. Thanks Helio! I had forgotten that I owned a PC, until you reminded me. What a great guy you are.

Now why dont you run along and play in some of the other threads while the rest of us continue on here without you, since you cant conceptualize a scenario where someone might be able to access a computer at some point but have more convenient and/or more uninterrupted access to a tablet or phone device.

I can breath with my mouth but I prefer to breath via nose, get it?

I'm an iOS user. Playing on PC is irritating. Why? There's better things id rather do on my PC. No, not porn. Haha

+1 to OP.
I'm glad someone more established took the time to bring up the question. I believe the core question still hasn't been answered by Kyle.

Why don't you say it? You want the rest of the platforms to be delayed until apple decides to approve a new version? As you can't have it in your preferred platform you would rather delay it for the rest?

As a player in many platforms, I'd rather have the updated version instead of having to wait for Apple to decide whether the new version is all right or not for you. If you'd rather be in a walled garden that requires apple approval to be able to get a new version of the software, its fine, but don't expect to force the rest of the platforms to follow the same road.

I didnt offer a solution, only pointed out the issue that has resulted in me not being able to play the game. How Wulven deals with the problem is up to them, either by way of in app updates that do not need apple approval, by waiting till apple is approved first, or by some other solution I did not think of. Thats not really my problem, since I didnt create the game or decide the choice of platform for it to be released on. My problem is that I dont want to play this game if IOS is never seeing updates till 1 month after everyone else, and since 50% of the userbase is IOS I would imagine that there are some others who feel the same way. I dont expect you/force you to do anything. Im asking what Wulven intends to do, if anything so I can decide if I should drop SE or not, which I felt was clear in the OP.

For the record I never have, and never will own any iCrap device.... unless they take over the world, which is unlikely, because their general is dead.

Considering the time it is taking Apple to update, it would be fairer to make everyone else wait, and release simultaneously. The updates are starting to roll over quicker now, and it would only be one delay, at the start. The devs would always be one patch ahead of the player base, waiting for the update to clear apple before releasing it everywhere. No-one would even know they were waiting for apple to approve the latest development. I honestly don't know what all the bitching is about, why not wait for apple? It's worse like this because EVERY platform has it, except one, which makes it obvious that they are being made to wait.

As Kyle said, iDevice users make up 50% of ShadowEra. It's unhealthy for a growing game to split its player base because of delayed updates.

The correct solution is to do a simultaneous release.
