The most immersive and impressive sci-fi FPS franchise on smartphones is back! Fight for mankind's survival in the greatest space shooter on mobile devices!
Four months have passed since Kal ruined the Volterites' plans by sabotaging their war factories, and stopping the extraction of the Judger Artifacts. However, following the assassination of President Folsom, the government surrendered the colonies to the Volterite Protectorate in order to prevent civil war amongst the increasingly pro-Volterite citizens.
Kal Wardin has been laying low since Folsoms death, but now he has received a desperate plea from Yelena to come to Earth. Once again, the hero must rise to save mankind!
An epic storyline: Humanity finally returns to Earth after years of exile! Fight in 10 immersive levels across the galaxy, from a war-torn Earth to a frozen Volterite city.
Multiple weapons and powers: Run, shoot, drive vehicles, and pilot a mech to defeat hordes of enemies.
Join 12-player battles in 7 multiplayer modes (Capture the Point, Free-for-All, Capture the Flag, etc.) on 7 different maps.
Use Voice Chat to communicate with your friends in real time! (Voice Chat available only on iPad 2, the new iPad, and iPhone 4S.)
For the first time, multiple allies can jump inside the same vehicle and spread destruction on the battlefield.
Discover the new FPS benchmark for graphics and gameplay on iOS (real-time shadow & lights, particle system, ragdoll physics, etc.)
Optimized for iPad Retina Display

And full of glitches that prevent any progress, because the developers didn't script what would happen if you blew up a mech and killed all the soldiers before Rufus started to circle them in the desert.
But it's very stable, so I'll give them that.

For all it's bugs, I do have to admit I enjoyed SP more than I usually enjoy GL single player. Then again, after MC3 and 9mm SP, I'm happy with anything decent...

I was a bit disappointed when I read the update description - Minor bug fixes, but I can confirm that all effects are now present on the new iPad by default, with an option to run the game in high quality.

Nice, I was just going to bash Gameloft for waiting more than a month to fix a few bugs. Downloading, going to take a while though.

1.5 gigabyte downloading and 1 month waiting just for minor bug fixes? what a bummer.
Has anyone finished downloading and given it a try? does they offer the option to switch to ipad 2 resolution and effects?
