Just a reminder to those of you getting a new iPhone, backup your game to iTunes. And even then it's not a sure thing. The other day I updated my iPad to iOS 8. Backed it up first to iTunes and iCloud. Did not work! DH started me at level1. No big deal as I mainly play dh on kindle. Dino hunter on the other hand was a issue! Started at region1. But 2 other games were intact, current level,money,achievements etc. My belief is that glu games are hard to save on iOS. I contacted Apple to get my money spent on Dino's back. They did, thankfully! But starting from scratch again. So if you don't want to risk it, save your older phone and just play your game on that. Or risk it, and try the backup. I even had a customer support person talk me through the update, he assured me my games would be intact. When it didn't happen he said it was the developer of the game that needs to know about this. The other 2 games that were intact: "Gunner Z" and "Dead Trigger 2" all were kept current. Good luck ~T.F

Good to know about the new update. The last update crashed my iPhone 4s and I lost everything. I had to restore the phone to factory setup settings. I was lucky that my cloud backup worked and I got everything back including dh14 and Dino.
I am hoping when I get the iphone 6 plus it will go that smoothly. But I am planning to keep my old iPhone if it doesn't work.
The issue is not with iOS 8 as that would install on a phone no problem. The issue is with upgrading to a new device and using the backup/restore feature that should carry your saved game to a new device.
Glu has scewed up this time in that it is not backing up game progress to iTunes.
Other game I have on my phone carried over correctly, no issues. This clearly tells me that I did the backup and restore successfully.
What is the point of spending time playing a game and buying weapons if you are just going to lose them if you change devices.
I contacted the company and was simply told they could do nothing. They just said this is the way the game is designed. Absolutely no help. I have seen complaints of this nature in the past with no urge for a fix. Very, very poor form. I would avoid this company's products like the plague.
heaps of little buggy problems, like my logitech keyboard shortcuts not all working in safari, then I acceidently locked the ipad. I entered my passcode, nope didnt work, tried all sorts of things.
Second problem is that its not charging every time I plug in the charge lead, so wont always talk to pc that way. Now its setup to backup to the cloud.
long story shortened..
Had to factory reset ipad, lost DH and have gone back to level 1.
Look in game centre and all my achievements are there.. So why doesnt it recognise that in the game and let me continue??
So annoying.
Wont be replaying the game from level 1.. I will be looking for a new game.
