Re: Any hope of a console or Mac/iOS version ?

Apple doesn't think about Slitherine at all, so they don't really have issues between them. Slitherine has issues with Apple's position that software should be made to take advantage of the specifics of each platform and updated periodically to support new paradigms (eg 64 bit). Slitherine wants wr...

Re: Any hope of a console or Mac/iOS version ?

I know that there is some “issues “ between slitherine and Apple , but I’ve read PC was a decent seller for Mac and since OOB is still being supported with patches on consoles , it must be doing OK at least . Does anyone have any info for this poor broken down war horse ? Apple doesn't think about ...

Mac Version Easily Viable Now

Slitherine has a long history of bitterness against Apple and Apple users which played out as a briefly available and buggy 32-bit Mac version of PzC that no longer works and which was outsourced to a foreign porting house. Slitherine's main grievance is that Apple didn't provide them an easy way to...

Re: Why so expensive.

People who can afford Mac hardware can afford more expensive games ? Absolutely. Mac users want to pay more for higher quality. In the case of PzC, there is no Mac offering and the iPad version is abandonware, so that doesn't really apply. PS: professionally I am forced to work on Mac because of th...

Re: Hey Developers How about $2950

Rudankort is working on Pacific Corps, a multi-DLC upgrade/addition to PzC2. It is over a year late, so don't expect much from him until PcC announcement. His only posts in over a year have been bug related [PzC2]. He doesn't work for Slitherine, he runs Flashback Games, which is contracted to Slit...

Re: Why so expensive.

Bummer: one of the reasons I got an iPad was to play pzc on it. It does still work on iPad- I've played it on my M1 iPad Pro. However, it does not support iPad screen sizes bigger than 10" (you see the same thing on 13" it just gets really big). There is always the risk of it getting drop...

Re: Panzer Corps 2 Axis Operations - 1944 A message from the Developer

I would love to play this, unfortunately my last MacBook died (with Windows partition on it), and my new one with Apple M1 chip does not allow for a Windows partition. Now I can't play PzC2 anymore. Any chance PzC2 on MacOS is on the roadmap? It is not. As can be seen in various posts around the fo...

Re: Army composition to aim for going into GC 44 & 45 East?

I'm not that far in my GC yet, but what I understood from reading the forum is that aiming for air superiority in 44/45 is increasingly a lost cause. Not at all. Air supremacy against the Russians is easy right to the end. A few tips: 1) Have some ground based AA to deal with Russia's best fighters...

Re: Hey Developers How about $2950

I hate to rain on everyones parade but the developer [Rudankort] does not own the game. The publisher [Slitherline] does. Publishers have business models that don't allow such things. Rudankort was going to give the source code to PGF away. His contract with Slitherline prevented it. Rudankort can'...

Re: Panzer Corps 2: Pacific - Game Update

Yeah, please dont rush it, take your time. Two years for a DLC still seems relatively rushed to me so I suggest you aim for a solid 2025 release. Im also very thankful that you keep your fanbase perfectly informed on this project. This very long, detailed and informative update after only 16 months...

A great time would be when the game is available on a wide variety of platforms, including macOS and iPadOS. A great time would also be when the game is coded ...

Re: Do I need more Sturmpanzer in GC42

I too run with a dozen artillery units. A beginner mistake in GC east is having too small of a core. You want like 60 units in your core for a variety of reasons: -because there are some scenarios that let you deploy huge armies -so that you can deploy the optimal unit mix for each scenario -so you ...

Re: Hey Developers How about $2350

Yes, I agree... here is some live data on this: https://steamcharts.com/search/?q=panzer+corps That data shows Slitherine left about ⅓ of their users behind when they went to PzC2. That's probably an understatement, since iPad users don't count towards Steam (and neither do Mac users but I doubt th...

My main question is how to get in contact with the developer/publisher team?
In all likelihood, you can't. They would view any improvements to PzC as a threat to PzC2, even though PzC2 doesn't run on Macs and iPads anyways.

Re: Does slitherine plan on supporting PzC for Ipad?

Are you going to fix it? I don't want to give any promises which I'm not sure I can keep. Right now my top priority is to bring Panzer Corps 2 to release. As for the Mac version, we all depend on the willingness of its makers to fix existing issues. Perhaps Marzipan could be an alternative solution...

Re: iPad PzC to be Delisted from App Store

Their answer was that they don’t want to do any business with apple, and that if they had sent them an email they probably had not even bothered to open it. I think it’s a very disappointing answer because they ARE doing business with apple, as I suppose they are not rejecting their payments. Takin...

Re: iPad PzC to be Delisted from App Store

Looks like they might get a reprieve- the delisting only applies to apps that are receiving less than a certain number of downloads. While PzC is abandonware, it might still be over that threshold.
