[QUOTE="Gorgias32, post: 267073, member: 5914"] I'm starting to feel the same way - how many MONTHS do we have to wait to get this <relatively very expensive> game fixed? The joystick overlay is a pro feature that they apparently accidentally turned on and left on in the release. It can't take more than FIVE MINUTES TO FIX THIS. The horked up colors in Ripleys is annoying, but I have that table in TPA as well so it's not killing me. Just irritating that it got deployed this way in the first place. And making us wait 2+ more months for Ghostbusters to be finished, well what's a few more months when everyone has already been waiting for over a year for any new content. But the joystick overlay is something that should have, in my opinion, been fixed a day or two after the Christmas break when they were back to work. I understand that doing even a simple release to the app store takes time and effort, but it's not like Farsight has a time-consuming internal QA cycle to go through, they clearly don't have one. Sorry if the frustration is showing, I'm just starting to feel like the iOS platform is getting disrespected. And my investment ($20 into SPA) has been a mistake. At what point do we start asking for refunds? 3 months broken? 6? I spent the first few months with SPA on iOS playing AC/DC and Mustang obsessively, I absolutely love them, the implementation is fantastic. For the last few months, I don't even play anymore because I have to put my left thumb in an awkward position to avoid hitting the joystick overlay, it messes up nudging, etc. Maybe only the squeaky wheels get the grease - in that case, please consider the iOS SPA to be officially squeaking.
