Great game so far!! I was always a big fan of Battleship!

I do have lots of suggestions/questions though:

*First and foremost; we need global and friend leaderboards that we can view in game!

*When connected to Facebook, I'd like to see my friends who actually play and not a list to invite a bunch of people that aren't playing. I can't tell which of my Facebook friends are playing or not.

*I woke up this morning with too many random games from people. You guys should do it like a lot of other games do the random encounters... I only receive a random game if I start one.

*Is there no way to resign a game before it begins?

*Are we able to change our nicknames? If not, I'd like to see a change for that or make it Game Center compatible so it automatically uses that name.

*Before a game starts, I'm not able to place my ships if the opponent gets their turn first. What if they do get a first hit? Will I be unable to move that ship once I start my first turn?

*There's no 'back/return to menu' button during gameplay.

*Why can't we place ships next to each other?

Just know, either way you have an awesome game! I just figured these things would make the game much more enjoyable!

Thanks!

That's something we plan to introduce along with a Game Center update. And yes, of course there will be a Game Center update However, we're afraid it might not happen until early next year. There's just too many things we need are more urgent to get right before that, not least of which is general stability and an ability to decline challenges from random opponents. Thank you for your patience.

Actually, we did it a bit differently than other social games on the market. See, if your friends are playing, they automatically get added to the Port. In other words, you can only invite friends that don't have BattleFriends yet.

See above We intend to deal with this issue in our first major update.

If you accidentally enter a game, you mean? We're afraid not at the moment

We've toyed with that idea, but allowing players to change their nicknames was too dangerous for the stability of the database. We don't yet have the resources of our bigger colleagues, if you know what we mean However, when we get around to revising the database - and we'll have to someday - we'll make sure you'll be able to change your nickname.

As we mentioned before, Game Center integration is on the agenda.

Don't worry. You can't get hit until you deploy your ships. Their initial formation is generated based on the location of your opponent's hit.

That's intentional, to make sure other players won't leave their friends hanging mid-turn.

There are many sets of rules for Sea Battle and some of them disallow placing ships next to each other. We've thought that's a great way to make sure the battles don't last forever and add some tactical depth to the game.

You're definitely right! Thanks for your feedback - it means the world to us!

This is actually really good, better than I was expecting it to be, and better than EA's Battleship. The sounds and animation/graphics are nice too. The online multiplayer is long overdue for a game like this. If the above suggested changes are implemented soon this could be a hit.

[Carlos-Sz]

I was only using Shuffle to deploy my ships and I didn't know that I could not place ships next to each other. That is a great feature.

So far the best battleship game!

Please add more things to buy: 2x coins, no ads and things like these.

5/5!
