Yeah, I agree that some AA would be nice. It's just very frustrating to see the "full retina" nonsense repeated over and over again when running 3d games at an absurd resolution is a really silly waste of the iPad 3's graphical resources. For my part, I wish more developers would pick an intermediate resolution and focus on smooth, consistent framerates.

If memory serves. From the first release of GoFHD for 4S, they've said that anti aliasing would basically mean a massive hit to performance, yeah they'd like to add it because it would look much better and they're gonna keep looking at it. But the tech just isn't there.

Maybe we'll see it for the new reaolution on iPad 3, but given the following facts.

1) people conplain when things dont look as pretty On their new retina device.
2) people complain when the file size has jumped massively for textures on non retina devices

Pretty sure come the next new iPad and GoF3 we'll see AA. But until then we shall see more of what's here. We'll get a toggle switch, and that's all. On the current tech there has to be a trade off.

:-) well I've never had as many views on a thread !

My final word is well done to the Dev.

No matter what the graphics look like at a given resolution and no matter what the performance.

The Dev has done the correct thing by giving us ALL the the options !

They did it to fix frame rate issues, but I personally haven't had any. So I didn't update.

I am very glad to read that a new update has been submitted.
Stopped playing after the resolution toggle removal since the latest update.
Cannot wait so I can continue playing again!
Really... I've done some battles and there is a small FPS dip. But not as bad as having a station in sight, for example.

I'm guessing the update should be showing up any time now ?

Will the update include mirroring for apple tv?

Mirroring works for any app. That's the point. It mirrors whatever is on your screen.

I think he means proper 16:9 "mirroring".

Well done on the update guys. I've amended my review and rating on iTunes.
