I am always receiving e-mail and the past week I have received 2 requests to "remove all unlocks" and 2 requests to "add a ton more unlocks."
Both sides of the argument are very sure they are the majority. To determine the general feeling of the forum, I am posting this poll.

I'm not really sure I understand the difference. The awards/unlocks are cool, and it's a much better achievement system than the Xbox/Playstation ones. Besides, the system has too much in it to take away.
So.....which button do I press up top?

The unlocks are the primary reason why I've spent such a ridiculous amount of my recent time playing this game. I think I would've given up on Crazy mode after my 5th dead captain, were it not for the fact that I'm obsessed with getting the unlocks  |

I enjoy both unlocking awards & content but I must say I enjoy unlocking content more. Having said that, I really hate unlocking things I've already unlocked due to say a Phone OS upgrade, and would hate doing it on a new phone upgrade as well (if it applied to me). My thoughts are please don't add more content unlocks until a form of transference of previously accomplished awards can be accomplished.

I want to have lots more to unlock - I've pretty much exhausted the list that is available (but for 1 award). It would be absosmurfly wonderful if there could be some additional things to strive for. However, I do agree with Noesis - there has to be some mechanism for user transfer from device to device.

Did I not see somewhere that if you use titanium backup that you could backup your game and data? Then I would think you could restore your data to the new device? Maybe I am wrong I am not an expert or anything. I do know that I had almost everything thing unlocked, and woke up two weeks ago to start playing and noticed that somehow when I was playing late the night before and falling asleep while I was playing I managed to accidentally remove it from my phone, which required a re-install and I am still working to unlock some of it again.

I think that awards that unlock things make the game more interesting. I can't see how any of the alternative starting ships differ from the VV sufficiently to justify the work needed to unlock them, but most of the other unlockable stuff is of interest to me. However, it's all academic for me at this point: I haven't yet managed to survive long enough on challenging to unlock anything.

I really enjoy the awards system thanks Cory! I would like it more if it was a little bit clearer tracking the awards, I have so many awards now I can no longer easily find my original unlocks. Some way to filter and delete ... all been discussed before and no complains here!

IMHO the best solution is to have an unlock code. That way it's a win win. People who like to unlock through game play can unlock through game play. People who don't like to unlock can simply flip a switch. You could even make it an elite feature.

119 views and 12 voters? Weird.

Every time you pop into this thread or refresh the page the view count goes up. I know I've looked at this page at least 10 times so far (because there are 10 responses and each time it gets the "new" tag). I'm a sucker for the new tag thing - it's like bait that I fall for.

I enjoy the unlocks, but some have been quite disappointing, particularly a couple of the ships, perhaps I have more missed the specific focus of a given one, but seems like a great deal of work to unlock a ship which has little appreciable difference

Maybe the "unlock all" switch can just work for specific captain when you choose it during new game creation and just for lower difficulties - for casual players to enjoy. Also I think it would be great to go through unlock conditions and carefully consider if they are enjoyable / fun to do  . |

I can't see how any of the alternative starting ships differ from the VV sufficiently to justify the work needed to unlock them. I agree. Either the requirements be easier, or the ships buffed. |
