Me either. Still a fantastic game and good fun to play, although a bit frustrating having to start all over again every time!

I've had this issue once on the iPad. It seems that when there is no data connection (WiFi or 3G) the game wont load. Closing down Carmageddon (actually properly closing the app in the multi-task bar) and restarting worked for me (once I had a signal).

That might explain things - tried loading again this morning and has reappeared on my save game list.

Thanks.

FAO BATWICK : BUG REPORT FOR IPHONE VERSION

If you have an alarm set on the phone, which goes off while playing you cancel by hitting "OK". After this the game has no sound for the rest of that race, and the hangs on a black screen once race complete.

Can anyone else confirm this is an issue for them? (I'm using iPhone 5)

Cheers

Have you passed this through our support channels on Carmageddon.com? I don't recall this being a known issue, but it's far from impossible. I've got no friends, so nobody ever phones me whilst I'm playing it....

Correct. And you should see what I've already got prototyped and working for Carmageddon:Reincarnation. Loads and loads more physics-based stupid powerups. REALLY stupid powerups...

Yes, because we use the iCloud for our saves, we're a bit at Apple's mercy when it comes to bad connections. Not a lot we can do about it really - but you do at least get it back once your connection returns.

The other save game eating issue was a genuine bug in our code which we fixed with the patch.

It's coming, honest! Just much more complicated as a) It's our first Android development and b) there are so many devices you have to support.

Might just make it before the end of the year. If not then very early next year.
