I believe I saw in one of the community vids that the dev team plans to release both an ios and android version. I think they said they aren't making the actual app but another company is, the devs just give them the info. All in all I think both version will be supported.

It seems as if we currently hold 25% of Indar; you're needed at this base.

Then BOOM it logs you in automatically!

OMG! THIS!!!! YES PLEASE!

If we look into a mirror and say Higby 3 times, will he appear? Cause he needs to know this idea is gold!

Even just being able to have a function of the app so I can look at my phone when I get off work and see if my friends are on (or have something alert me that they're logging in) would be epic too.

But yea, having it give me a mission summary on boot would be a dream come true :P (especially if it had a phonetic annunciation setup so I could get it to say my name).

Will be waiting for an Android App. Will then Launch Airstrikes via my Tablet. Mwahaha.

I can publish an app on windows market, but I have no clue how to make it. It'd be possible, since the API will be available, I just don't have the know-how.

Would really like if they looked into a Windows Mobile app.

More than 5 people would have to own one of things before anyone would consider making it.

Sorry, I couldn't help it

.
It sounds like with the data that they'll be providing, this should be totally do-able.

It'll have a web browser client as well. Have no fear.

I do really like my WM phone, but the lack of support in the app market is extremely inconvenient. My next phone will probably be an Droid (since I really don't like Apple).

Not impressed until I see spectator mod while talking to that person.

You DO know that spectator modes, broadcast support, etc is also all in the plans (post launch additions, unlike the tablet support I believe, but still, all in due time

)

Oh I heard there will be spec mode but I wanted it in an ap. Like you are talking to the person and watching over their back.

Well, I know you will be able to talk to people (in your outfit at least) using the tablet.

And the Stream service is supposed to work with all PS2 metagame platforms (web/tablet)

So I imagine this is quite likely.... though you'll probably be locked to his view (ie; not able to watch his back)

I am going to love this. My wife, she will be ready to shoot me. Bring it on.

Android please? Not everyone is an apple lover.

There's got to be some crazy possibilities here with running the game on your PC and your IPad next to it. Just having an open continent map all the time would be cool for the CR5 types. I wonder if you could use it as an espionage device. Possibly as an NC outfit commander fighting the TR for instance you could look up a certain problematic TR outfit commander and find where he is presently and change your battle plans accordingly.

Or assassination missions randomly generated by the server. Picking a player and giving his approximate whereabouts on the map. If you accept the mission you must find him and take him out. Maybe targets are CR3 and above. And you are locked into Sniper gear until you liquidate the target or choose to quit the mission.

Sounds fun whatever they do with it.
