Ah yes, the topic of piracy has once again come up and once again Madfinger Games has released some interesting information to consider. Everyone knows that Dead Trigger went free-to-play due to the piracy rate being high for it, almost 80% to be exact. What a lot of people don’t know is that Shadowgun had worse piracy.
The newest update for Dead Trigger has finally been released today and coming along with it is a lot of goodies for everyone as well as those who purchased the game before it went free, something Madfinger Games said they would do in order to reward those who bought the game for a buck.
One of the biggest issues surrounding the release of Dead Trigger was the fact that it was $0.99 but came with in-game purchases. It wasn’t so much the fact that it came with the in-game purchase but more that it wasn’t mentioned in the description. Shortly after that, Dead Trigger went free due to a high piracy rate, angering people who paid the original $0.99 for it.
Madfinger Games just announced that they are already in the process of making the next update for their great zombie themed FPS game Dead Trigger. They were serious when they said updates would be rolling out frequently for the game after it’s release. So what does this update already come with?
Dead Trigger has been in the news pretty prominently for the past few weeks. First the launch excitement, then the launch itself, then all the talk about the implementation of IAPs in a paid game, followed by anticipation of a big update and finally the furor over the fact that the game has gone free.
In the update for Dead Trigger, Madfinger Games’ newest hit FPS title for Android, a lot of new content came with the game including support for the Adreno 205 GPU which makes it accessible to plenty more Android devices. A price change also came with the update, dropping the price from $0.99 to free which seems to have angered a lot of people who paid for the game initially.
Yesterday we talked about the upcoming Dead Trigger update that Madfinger Games were teasing which, among a slew of new features, was also bringing support for the Adreno 205 GPU which means Xperia Play support. Initially the update was suppose to go live sometime yesterday but due to an uploading snag, it was delayed until today.
Madfinger Games’ newest piece of visual eye candy will be receiving an update soon and a pretty extensive one at that. Among the new content and features heading our way is support for the Adreno 205 GPU which means the Xperia Play will now be supported as well as other devices that use that GPU.
Madfinger Games are synonymous with the mobile gaming scene on Android, what with the massive success of their previous titles – Samurai II: Vengeance and Shadowgun. Their games have been known to be the standard bearers on mobile platforms, especially in the graphics department. Released amid high expectations amongst Android gamers, how does their latest game, Dead Trigger, fare?
Developers are always free to monetize their games in whatever way they seem fit whether it is free-to-play, freemium, paid full version or free with ads or any combination of those. Sometimes the results may not be what the developers thought they would be. The same applies to gamers as well. Dead Trigger from Madfinger Games is a prime example of this.
