So, does the new 1.0.9 update have reduced effects when played on Retina resolution?

The shaders we are using a very sophisticated but in particular when stations cover a lot of the screen the frame rate drops significantly.

So I realize that the SD version is recommended for an iPod Touch 4G, but since this is now the same price as the Valkyrie expansion and were I to download this with the SD version installed, I'd get Valkyrie for free, it'd be the same price for me to upgrade to this version now. Will it run on a my device, however?

True, you would get the Valkyrie upgrade at the same price as the add on itself.

While HD is not designed for the device, people have gotten it working on the iPod 4. Even with low quality settings, the textures etc are still there. However, it can't be guaranteed to work, so I guess you use at your own risk.

GoF 2 HD? Yes, it will run in your device, but keep in mind that the game is NOT optimized for that device, so you'll get some framerate drops. You can disable some effects in options though.

Hmmm...thanks for answering, guys. If I had plans to upgrade soon I'd go for it for sure, but I really don't see it happening for at least another year, unfortunately, unless some money drops out of the sky on me. I tend to prefer a smooth framerate over detailed textures, so I guess I will pass.

Hmmm, yeah I was thinking about upgrading, since I have an iPad now. So having both the SD and HD on your device unlocks Valkyrie in the HD version for free?

I loaded up GoF2 today, and this banner popped up for a couple minutes straight. http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/5678/img4002c.png

How do I disable Open Feint so the app will not attempt to login?

I finally threw down on this game cause of the sale, I already have the sd version. While the hd game looks great I think I like the sd version as it looks a lot better on the iPad. I'm going to probably give the hd version a lot more play but first impressions are not good. I mean even the text is blurry.
