1.2 Suddenly Live!

Apple surprised me again! Version 1.2 went from "In Review" status at Apple to "Available" in about half an hour! Someone over there is really cranking. Patch notes have been posted, enjoy!

New Update 1.2!

Version 1.2 is on it's way to the iTunes store, and should be live in the next week or so. The new version features two new unit types, as well as the Eastern Front campaign! I'm particularly fond of Stalingrad, as it has a rather unique feel. In addition, there are also a number of bug fixes, ai tweaks, and other general improvements.

Full patch notes to be posted soon!

Version 1.1 Live!

Version 1.1 is now live, and can be downloaded from the App store. This update includes first pass on air units and a number of bug fixes and balance adjustments.

★  AIR SUPPORT UNITS
Air support is now available in many (though not all) missions.


★  IMPROVEMENTS
● Improved user navigation into cities and onto bridges. If you end a movement order in such a location, a waypoint is automatically placed at its center.
● Pathing improvements to mission 12, Market Garden. Should be better. Might be harder.
● Improved mission selection screen, as a surprising number of folks thought there were only 5 missions.
● Fixed a bug here you could retreat units out of the combat area.

Version 1.2 is well underway, and will feature the first major content update, including new missions, new units, and several new mission features.

Reviews and Updates!

148apps has given Pocket World at War 4 out of 5 stars!

Click for the 148apps Review!

More unit types and more missions are the most requested features, and will be the focus of the first two updates 1.1 and 1.2 (the map pack)! It looks like we are leaning towards the Eastern Front in the poll, by the way. Be sure to vote before the poll ends!

Version 1.1 Update!

I want to thank everyone for the amazing feedback and support for Pocket World at War!

UPDATE: VERSION 1.1 IS ON IT'S WAY TO APPLE!
If all goes well, it should be live in about a week. Version 1.1 attempts to address a few of the more common user issues, as well as adding in the features below: 


★  AIR SUPPORT UNITS
Air support is now available in many (though not all) missions. You can call in air strikes to support your advance through Normandy, but they are limited and should be timed well.



★  IMPROVEMENTS
● Improved user navigation into cities and onto bridges. If you end a movement order in such a location, a waypoint is automatically placed at its center!
● Pathing improvements to mission 12, Market Garden. Should be better. Might be harder.
● Improved mission selection screen, as a surprising number of folks thought there were only 5 missions...



Work is also being done on a mission pack, which will feature more customised units than the Normandy campaign. The mission pack will be released as the second FREE update! Look at all that value for your 99c!
