Tell that to those who paid this for the FULL 7.99 (like me, AKA beta testers), with all the free bugs.

For what it's worth, it's incredibly unlikely that the games will ever be on sale for a lower price than what they're at now. Also, we're planning on ending the sale tonight, so you might as well get em while you can. The iPad version is normally $7.99 so at $2.99 it's a complete steal. Not to mention the original Fieldrunners for iPad has the legendary multiplayer version that isn't present in any of the other versions (including the sequel).

CHOOSE WISELY.

Loading times in the free version are actually much longer than the full version as a result of adding upsell screens. So, despite what people say about the loading times in the full version, they are much, much shorter than they are in the free version. It's a real shame and it's something we'll definitely have to work on.

Regardless, I hope you get a chance to check it out! Each level is about 30-60 minutes, so if you spend 60 seconds on a loading screen every hour, it shouldn't be the end of the world. But yeah, I feel your pain and it's something we're working on improving.

Thanks for the feedback!

I love the new polymorph gun, but the game is crashing like crazy for me since the last update.

Try holding the SLEEP button, then swiping the red button that says “Slide to Power Off”. After you’ve done that, restart your device and load up the game again. Everything should work perfectly.

I took the plunge a few weeks ago and I have to say that although it is a fairly competent tower defense game, there are technical issues that are really making it hard for me to play and enjoy the game, I'm playing on an ipad 2 and the following is just terribly annoying:
- Loading times are insanely long without justification but poor programming (being a coder in my past, and the CEO of a farily large tech company, this isn't something I'm saying without knowledge.)
- The game keeps crashing, every time I restart a level after defeat. This coupled with the load times is most unfortunate. I did try rebooting in the past.
- Most battles last too long with too many waves. Not a technical issue but a negative for me.
Maybe the first two issues are not as bad on the ipad 3 or 4, but due to the hardware weight I prefer to stick to my trusty old ipad 2.
This is a shame because as said before, the game is quite solid, has a ton of content, and makes you think. It is also obvious a lot of care and attention went into the level design and the art. Hopefully this can and will be fixed in the future, although I highly doubt it as the core engine running the game seems to take a lot of memory and is causing the load times and crashes.
