I would have given 5 stars, but deleting all saved games on an update is really bad, as it means a lot of hours lost on this game. It is still playable with these controls, but they really overdid it for play on an iPad. They over did the reduction in size making them more fiddly to use and having them scrunched into the corners makes it harder to hold iPad and play. The new controls are much smaller and pushed to the bottom corners. I am not on iCloud so perhaps that is why though other my other games don’t suffer this fate on updating. “The update deleted all my saved games so I am having to start from scratch.
The freedom to explore/trade/pirate and fly anywhere outside of the main story line make GOF2 much better than GOF3 and seem much less of a grind. Now I can go back to giving this game the 5 stars it richly deserves as the best Elite style space trading/pirating/fighting game on iPad. In addition configure button in control options, allows both left and right controls to be slid vertically on screen to a comfortable position for your device - great idea ! I also see that iCloud game saving option now works, though even non-iCloud saves were not deleted on this recent fix, so I don’t know why they were lost on the previous update. UI has now returned controls to original size. Thanks for fixing the problems from previous update, see my earlier comments below.
