Hey, an update to my post above, I tested it out and the auto supplies activation is not for me. It might be good for mjmj coz he does not use the supplies wheel. But I have learnt to use the supplies wheel so I don't need this new feature. 

It has been more of a hindrance to me than a benefit so I disabled it.

I've gonna test it now, but i don't think so that it will be good.

I've tried it out, well,  this featiure is not for me.

I just found out that 'driving backwards while shooting forwards' is possible in mobile. You need to disable the option 'hull follows stick'. It is very disorienting right now for me but @Gauss-Hornet says that he finds it better. 

So I will play a few battles with this setting and find out if I like it. 

Wow! You didn't know this? I often drive baclwards while shooting forward, sometimes, i didn't even realize that i am driving backward 

[mjmj5558 2,346]

One more positive thing with this update: you can make an active supply auto activated when it ends.

haha, no, but I can see the future, I am not a little minion full of naive hope.

Use your brain, what does it takes to develop TO under IOS? 

Also Android version is not even finished and it took already 2 years.

If within the next 2 years TO deliver IOS you can call me chipmunk, if not, then you will have to call me "The Grand Almighty Viking, My Lord and Master".

 I am very young indeed, that's make me a dreamer however I remain close to the realities of this world. Sorry I did not realise that you did not follow the game development and were just asking a simple question. Here below a better answer. 

I don't think that currently having only 5-10k active players justify the investment of time and money (hiring Devs with IOS programming skills) to develop the whole game from scratch on a a third and new platform that is known to be less used in the world (neither does TO).

No, I am not a developer form TO nor in the video game industry but i do develop product in another industry with global scope. The principles stay the same this is all about money, not passion. If the investment do not provides more revenue, there is no point to spend time and effort on developing something. This is why I can tell you that TO on IOS won't happen, not in the short term. If TO had 50K players or having a sustained increase of players, that would be a different situation. TO do no advertise, it only relies on social media via its players, as the number of players diminishes, so does it exposures to potential new players to replace the one that leaves. Unless you reverse this trend, TO IOS is not gonna happen.

What do you think of the new homepage layout? I find that:

 

• The left side is unnecessarily cluttered now
• The removal of the gamemode selection next to the PLAY button was unnecessary
• The Battle Pass icon is too much in your face now
• The mission and container section being moved to the left side is a QOL downgrade

 

It'll take some getting used to for me. Especially since for now it will be loading slower than usual.

Shouldn't the tutorial start with Ares?

@At_Shin 

 

After eyeing it for many battles, I've found an inconsistent pattern to the self-destruction. 

 

It seems to activate after I am killed by an enemy Overdrive, namely Hornet's Overdrive. If an enemy Hornet kills me while they have their OD active, 9/10 times, I self-destructed after spawning. This happens frequently with Hornet because...well... it's rather popular these days. 

 

I noticed it with Wasp and Viking earlier today. A Wasp Freeze killed me with their bomb twice and both times I self-destructed after spawning. A Wasp Ricochet did the same in another battle and I self-destructed. However about two times I died to a bomb but did not self-destruct so that's inconsistent. 

Got killed by a Viking Thunder with their OD active, self-destructed after. I spawn again and got killed by another Vikng Thunder with their OD active, and self-destructed again after spawning. Happened with a Viking Magnum in another battle as well. 

 

Dying to an Ares' OD sometimes made me self-destruct and sometimes didn't. And sometimes, I would just self-destruct after being killed by a regular player with no OD, so I couldn't find any other trigger than enemy Overdrives.
