News: Everyone's missing the new mobile PS2 app! - Page 4

I hope that this app also allows you to send text messages to your outfit friends, and not just use VoIP.

Yelling at your mates to get their arses moving and secure the base before the enemy come back for another attack, might attract some odd looks in coffee shops and at work.

I'm fairly sure that this is already a feature but they haven't explicitly confirmed this yet so I'd like an official comment on this.

I think there will still be room for Fan Made Apps.

Fantastic idea. Scrub through the last 24h of hex/zone captures, maybe a kill/death count, and high-tension zone data.

Adding a full, configurable, second-screen would bring logistical- and situation-awareness to a whole new level. If in-game second screen support isn't an option, even a browser-based app (ie. Chrome) with real-time map updates would be huge.

And of course an Android app to encourage the addiction.

Yeah... Exactly my thinking, think I'm going to park up what I have already done and reassess what road to take my app at a later date

MUst....Have....now!

I am going to end up using this a lot, if only to look up map statistics.

indirect · 2012-06-11, 02:49 PM

Is it going to be iOS only?

Pennybagz · 2012-06-11, 02:58 PM

No, they mentioned Android as well.

I own nothing that can run this program, therefore it holds no interest for me.

I am a technological neophyte. My phone makes phone calls, nothing else. Also, yay for battery life!

That's not problem! You just stare back and ask them if he know PS2?

Are there any details as to what data/info the public will have access to in their App Development? Are they going to give out protocols, procedures, info required to access information to make the apps possible? I'm an IOS developer and very interested in this.

Vencher · 2012-08-14, 10:18 AM

Why is this an ios only app. Is there andriod versions?
