    Awwww, the devs have to put some time and work into making the game more aesthetically pleasing and easier for the majority of the player-base? Whooopie-dooo. I mean, this game is over a year old and anyone playing on a mobile device still can't see the amount of AP the enemy has unless they scroll over each turn. It's downright pathetic.

    The amount of AP should be shown at all times. I don't know what is taking them so long to actually get down to it and do it. They already have the formula that displays it, it's just a matter of putting it right on top of the characters. They can even keep it as is and just show it as a black vertical bar and cut off half of the last char. I don't mind.

    For the landscape mode, I am pretty sure that it is totally not worth it. And frankly, I see many other games out there that are portrait or landscape locked. There is a reason the developers chose that. I don't think it is because they where lazy to do it from the start, because it is actually easier to do it at the beginning. But if you want them to implement it now, I'd rather have them develop a new game mode.

    I don't play many mobile or on-line games, but the few that I do are in landscape mode. I would be ok with no landscape mode as long AS LONG AS WE CAN SEE THE GOD DAMN AP OF THE ENEMY AT ALL TIMES! The way it is now, you can barely see the 3rd enemy on the other team.

    If you put the mobile MPQ next to the Steam/PC version of MPQ, it's like comparing an HD TV to a tube TV from the 60s.

    I second this. Hopefully it is on the top priority list for the next patch. If not, let's make a big fuss about it so that they notice that we want this feature really bad.

    We want AP to be showed at all times on mobiles please!

    PC users doesn't have facebook sharing. I think it's fair icon_razz.gif I heard people make lots free Iso-8 by befriending strangers on facebook who are playing MPQ.

    Facebook sharing isn't on the PC? That's definitely worse. I am one of those people who made a fake FB account and friended like a 100 people just to share the random rewards; while I wouldn't characterize the amount of stuff I've received as "lots" it's certainly more than zero, which is what you're getting if you can't do that. (Maybe averages 100 ISO a day? About half what you'd get for joining an active 20-person alliance each day, which you should also do.)

    It shouldn't be about one platform getting perks that others don't. I personally don't care about facebook and don't earn much with my fake account.

    The inability not to see enemy AP is just a stupid design that should have been fixed immediately.

    Yeah, I was joking.
