NOTICE: I AM NO LONGER UPDATING THE POSTS ON THIS PAGE. THERE ARE SEVERAL REASONS, FIRSTLY I DO NOT OWN A WP8 SO I AM COMPLETELY UNAWARE OF UPDATES ON THAT, SECONDLY IT IS DUE TO THE LITTLE INFORMATION AVAILABLE AND FINALLY THE FACT THAT WHAT I DO PUT ON HERE TENDS TO BE DUPLICATION OF UPDATE INFO OVER AT WPCENTRAL.COM. HOWEVER FEEL FREE TO POST UPDATE INFO FOR EVERYONE TO SEE.

 

Ok, I thought I would put this on here as I have so many games that I am forever getting updates for but never know what they actually do. Maybe I am just looking in the wrong places but I think a more centralised list would be a lot better.

 

So this thread is for all to contribute. If a game gets an update, post what the game is, the date of the update, version (if known), and most importantly what the update does (i.e. fixes glitched achievements. leaderboards, etc). If that is unknown post it anyway and hopefully someone else can fill it the blanks later. If you think you know what it includes please add the description in italic so it can be updated with the exact details when they become available. Also any links would be useful. I will then create a Thread in each of the games forums so it is easy for anyone to find.

 

Here is the Template:

Game: Spider Jack

Date of Update: 10th January 2012

Version: 1.1.0.0

Update Description: ?

Got 4 updates yesterday. Seen that two of them were NFS: Hot Pursuit and Battlewagon but missed the other two. I know they were both one of the free games so can someone confirm please.

 

I had updates for both Breeze and Minesweeper. Don't know what the updates have done though.

So that's five then as don't even have Breeze any longer. Can anyone confirm what the other update was. Think it must have been either Sudoku or Shuffle Party.

 

Edit: Think I worked out that it is Sudoku judging by the version numbers.

I updated Sudoku and Minesweeper yesterday. Have no idea what the updates did though.

 

Edit: WhyTF are the updates not mentioned in the description of the game? All my apps on my old android phone would always mention the updates in the description. It's the little things that are so damn annoying! lol

 

Edit 2: Hell, even some of my indie games (like taptitude) show their update notes.

I know, it's absolutely crazy the updates themselves doesn't actually explain what they are for. Its the only reason I started this thread as its very hard to get an info about any of them.

I just got an update for Minesweeper again. Not sure if my last one didn't go through or if it is completely new. Says version 1.2.0.0 in the app details.

 

Yeah, I got one today as well. I thought the same tbh but all the other updates I got at the weekend installed so it seems it has been updated again. When I checked the previous one it was 1.1.0.0. Look at the bottom of the list as I have put in two Minesweeper entries in the last week. Again no idea as to what they do like several other of the updates. Very annoying not being able to even find a changelog on the net.

the update for Minesweeper is really cool. It tells you how much XP you need for certain powers. It also DOUBLED the amount of tokens you have which is fun. And, best of all I think, it tells you how much XP you win from various modes

 

Two new updates at the weekend.

 

Sonic 4 Episode I and Super Monkey Ball.

 

Any ideas that they do?

Like usual, I have no idea what the update did.

 

It's just crazy there is no where to find the official change logs for these updates. Just looking at the list you can see how many we have no clue about.
