Cyanide on Tablet in July

[J_Bone]

So which races have been released for it? I'm assuming it comes with humans and orcs for the $4.99 so which other teams are available as add ons for the additional $12 mentioned by Vanguard? $12 means four more teams right?

Chaos, Skaven, Wood Elf and Dwarf

Is iPhone coming?

Fairly sure it's tablet only. Have a hard time imagining how it could be squeezed onto a phone screen.

Looks like the US prices translate to £3 for the game and £2 per team. Beginning to think that that is pretty reasonable. Not going to pickup all the teams just for the sake of it, but if I fancy one then £2 is well within impulse purchase territory.

just for the record, the game is not woth the price. I tried it and till now 4 games crashed(or disconnected) over 6 i played. So i assume that the odds to end a game are the same as dodging with a saurus...

It's a time wasting entertainment, but it is rubbish. Same problem that elyoukey had with disconnections, annoying rule implimentations (can you turn piling on 'off' so it doesn't do it every time?), and odd matchups (my rookie humans ran into 1400 Dorfs with spammed guard/MB).

[DixonCider]

think I will wait until this is more stable to pick up. thanks for testing

can you turn piling on 'off' so it doesn't do it every time?

You certainly can in the desktop version - all skills default to auto-use but there's a preferences menu somewhere that allows you to specify which skills you should be prompted for. Would assume this also appears in the tablet version but not tried it yet.

When you find it on tablet can you tell me?

Heh, had a quick look and it's either not on the tablet version or particularly well hidden.
Other bits that jumped out, I can login in to multiplayer using the same account I use for the PC version, but it's not the same servers. The leagues are different and none of my teams are present. Doesn't look like you can seamlessly transition from desktop to tablet.

Check the "options" menu - iirc that's where it is on the PC version.

From some posts on the Cyanide forum it seems you can only see the teams you have paid for.

[Darkson]

To clarify this point, on the iPad version, players can only challenge the races that are available in the iPad game for the moment: Humans, Orcs, Dwarfs, Skaven, Wood Elves and Chaos. Even if the opponent is on PC.

[MattDakka]

If this version follows the same trend of BB1 there will be great variety of opponents: Dwarfs at low TV, Orcs at mid TV, then Chaos, have fun!

Based on the SP game your opponents can be any team available in the Tablet version, regardless of whether you've paid for them. What you can't do is play vs Norse or whatever as those assets presumably haven't been converted to whatever format the tablet version uses.

MP might be different but it seems a bit daft.
