    EDIT: I was wrong! Updating now!

    Neither has the Norwegian.... Will this be a problem? Is there a separate process for non-US app stores?

    Edit: Oh, the wonders of digital distribution - downloading now! :-D

    Yay! We got in Canada! Just bought it on my 5.1.1 Ipad3, downloading :P

    I think Apple implemented patch updates for the Mac App store, but not the iOS app store.

    So, now that it is live - something to keep you entertained while you wait for the download: "Big Screen Beta" on the iPad 4! Yes, everything is smaller, but with the improved targeting in 2012 it is actually playable.

    Is a text still readable in this resolution?

    YES
    The icon isn't rubbish any longer. That is a good start, at least :P

    Did we get the "something special" that was given with the PC update?

    Of course. There are no differences between the platforms.

    I would assume we did.

    I did not realise you could have Big Scree Beta on iPad. I might try it!
  • CerevantCerevant Member Posts: 2,314
    I'm guessing that it the BSB will only really affect things if you have a retina iPad. To enable it you have to use iFunbox (or similar) to change your Baldur.ini, and add
    'Graphics', 'Scale UI', '0',

    Well I have an iPad 3, which has a retina display, so I will try it once it updates!

    So uh....do we have to re-download the whole 1.7 gigs? wifi on my ipad 3 sucks. ;(

    Apparently, yes.

    Doh! Ok, I'll download on my macbook on the "faster" connection. ;)
  • Space_hamsterSpace_hamster Member Posts: 950
    6 hours to download...yay for 512 connection. ;)

    I'm about 20% done with the update, so I'm playing BG2 on my computer until I can experience excellent updated goodness. Ah, silly Shadow Thieves.

    I'm definitely a fan of the "smart-radius" clicking.
  • EleutherosEleutheros Member Posts: 70
    I agree - the main frustration on the iPad is gone!

    But now you really need to pay attention while invisible - one click close to a chest and you're visible.
  • Space_hamsterSpace_hamster Member Posts: 950
    If anyone can tell me....is there new DLC available with the update? ie. new portraits, soundsets?...
  • DeeDee Member Posts: 10,447
    @Space_hamster
    No, but there is some new content (if you can find it).
  • CerevantCerevant Member Posts: 2,314

    Nope, but there is a new [censored]. Check the general forums for spoilers if you are interested!
  • EudaemoniumEudaemonium Member Posts: 3,199
    Technically the extra soundsets *should* be available now, since they were not previously available for purchase (they were only added to the store in the 2010 update, which the iPad did not have).
  • DelvarianDelvarian Member Posts: 1,232
    Yes new sound sets, and I've just confirmed the new special content.
  • iKrivetkoiKrivetko Member Posts: 934
    Cloudkill still slows the game to a crawl. Not amused.:|
  • Space_hamsterSpace_hamster Member Posts: 950
    Just slightly annoying creating an PC and being limited to such a small set of portraits.
  • EketEket Member Posts: 69
    Smart radius is nice.

    Patch did not fix the poor performance on aoe spells. Kinda disappointed
  • iKrivetkoiKrivetko Member Posts: 934
    The smart radius works quite well, though picking up staves is still troublesome for some reason.

    You can use the portraits folder to override some of the default ones. That is what I've been doing.
