Hi there,

Well, finally the Amazon update is out. Go get it to fix all those issues with the tank, funky screens and such.

Servers are now fixed and upgraded since we all will have the last version beginning today.

Also, Microsoft finally let the Windows update go through! This means it won't be discontinued. Nevertheless I has a bunch of bugs since it now works with joysticks too. If you are using Windows or plan to use Windows, consider:

1) Windows 8 will be declared obsolete any time. If you want to play Dogfight in Windows you need to upgrade to Windows 8.1. It is free. It is faster. It is way better. Just go to the "store" icon on your current Windows 8 and get the update there.
2) I will try to release another update for Windows 8.1 today. Dogfight now supports joysticks/gamepads and left behind some ugly bugs (basically I replaced a chunk of code by mistake). Right now the tank and soldier won't respond to screen touches, you can use the cursor keys or your gamepad instead. This will be fix on the soon to be out update.

In short, I'm happy. Finally all major platforms have the latest version!

I too got the same problem. i suggest you to completely uninstall dog fight as per below mentioned procedure.

Run Windows Powershell Command with administration command

1. Get-appxpackage –Name *part of package name*
e.g. > Get-appxpackage –Name *dog*
2 remove-appxpackage FEF09289.Dogfight_1.1.0.24_x86__djayc63bxkq60 –confirm
Remove for all users account to completely remove the package

after removal, reinstall the same and I do hope that your game pad keys will be back.

Disculpa por ponerlo en español, pero, porqué todos los juegos ahora son solamente de bombardear la base enemiga? Y cuando sorpresivamente me encuentro en alguna otra misión, eh durado casi 40 min y nadie entra. En todos los servidores es igual. Debo de esperar alguna actualización o así ya será el juego?

get the update from the store for 4.4.49, it will fix those calibration/accelerometer issues plus many others.

@ziza: necesito esperar a que la gente actualice, despues activare todos los tipos de juegos.

I don't have a Logitech 3d pro so I have no idea. The system uses the standard windows api so it should in theory work with any gamepad/joystick. All you have to do is plug it in before starting the game.
If it doesn't work... no clue then. I have no way to test it without that device.

I guess I should chime in. I got the update also on a 8.1 PC. No issues at all and now I do not feel so bad for shooting down so many reds.... B) Before I was afraid I had some sort of advantage over them, now I know it was just them whining...

It updated automatically, and with no hiccups.
