    Worse yet....still absolutely no hint as to what is included or at what price. So, literally everything is still up in the air.

    I agree. They try and be transparent and keep us in the loop even when things go a bit awry.

    They could have just let us stew with no info. But they tried to tell us as it was happening. They seemed quite surprised about the needing to resubmit.

    They said they would release full details once it was approved. Loads of developers keep the price under wraps until then. It's not the worst thing in the world.

    At this point they must know the price (and other) details, and people would clearly welcome any real information right now, so there has to be a bigger reason why they're holding off actually telling anybody anything. Given the way Playdek's recent games have gone, though, you'll probably be able to get it for $1 in a month if you want to wait (not that many will).

    Edit: Perfect timing. ^_^

    > sigh of great relief <

    A win for virtually everyone else because I suck at farming and am willing to have my arse handed to me.

    And still no chat.

    Wait, what? Decks that come as the stock package are going to be DLC and are still not implemented? Hilarious. Was Le Havre released without the special 3p/4p buildings?

    Many people were complaining about the resubmission to Apple. Bear this in mind:

    People want it "NOW" but, sometimes next week is better. And hey, now it's "next week". ;)

    .... Eh? I'm confused.

    Chat would be awesome honestly. I don't know why more games cannot implement this. But PlayDek isn't the only company that ignores the importance of this. But they are one of the only ones. Has everyone here urged them about this? If we bombard them enough, maybe they'll do something.

    As far as the other decks, I can't fully explain it. Is the game really incomplete without them? I understand that they do complicate things a bit do they not?

    From a business and from the perspective of keeping things going, it makes sense. The game launches and has the meat of the game. It doesn't include 2 pack which will be put in within a few months for $2 total.

    The entire cost of the game is $9 after those decks are added. For a $50 game, I'm fine with that.

    It's actually an $80 game, so feel even better.
