How long must we wait? Tell us right now that the advanced difficulties will or will not be included in the patch. Tell us the higher difficulties will or will not be included in the next patch. People should know that if you spend $80 for the iPad version you are not getting the same game in which if you had a PC and spent $80 for. Time to man up.

We appreciate it has been a long time coming, and apologise for the delay. The higher level difficulty fixes are definitely planned to be in the patch.

Cheers

Pip

Any word on the patch? Can you please give us any kind of semi guess at a somewhat general timeframe for a possibly maybe calendar date when we might expect a patch?

Lordz are now involved in a series of ipad East Front games with Hunted Cow. Maybe the PC patch is on the back burner?

Has nothing to do with it, total different teams involved... Tank Battle: East Front btw is finished and just released on iTunes.

Main thing is getting the Steam version of Panzer Corps out of the way and that practically is finished and in approval with Steam, iPad patch is being worked on.

We don't want to give an exact date as we still have to deal with Apple approval once it is finished and that can differ from 1-7 working days alone.

The PzC iPad patch is coming boys, a promise and not too long now.

That Panzer Corps got Steam greenlit was unexpected and just in the middle of the iPad release, so we are fighting a double front war at the moment, but winning on both.

Our apologies for the delay, but again it is coming.

We try to keep you informed as much as possible and as fast as we can.

Wow. So vague. You would think fixing a released product so it works completely would take precedence, or at least be equally important, as getting a new platform out.

I guess not. Pretty disappointing.

The key thing is that the Steam release was already in motion to some extent. As Iain has said, we aimed too big with the iOS patch scope and that meant we were not able to get the simpler quality-of-life updates out quickly. With a small team things can have knockon effects which are hard to both predict and absorb.

Cheers

Pip

The vast majority of the Steam work was for our production office. Alex did have to do some work but it was almost entirely product pages, installers etc so it has not significantly impacted the iPad version.

I understand your frustration and we desperately want this out the way too. We have been expecting to be ready to submit every day for the last 2 weeks but it just has not been completed. We're pushing as hard as we can to get this done and I really hope we can get an update in to Apple before the end of the week.

I apologize for the delay but the key issue was we tried to do too much.

Really no list of patch fixes? If you submitted it to apple surely you must have a list. I guess I really need to hear from you that Manstien and Rommel difficulty levels will be available to play. This is what I have been asking for more than three months now.

Hi guys, Alex is in St. Petersburg and they have serious net problems all week, so communication is by mobile phone, apparently 10.000 homes are without any network connection for a week now. So asa we get the full list we will post it. Sorry for the inconvenience, we are awaiting the log, just as you all.

I'm very very happy now. The sleep always is an extra bonus thank you. Now I will simply fade away......which will make you very very happy!

Iain, do you think Panzer corps will ever be released for Androids?

The good news is apple have approved the update and its releasing now.

The bad news is we have no current plans for Android. The team simply doesn't have the resources to split manpower between its current commitments and an Android version.
