@lorenb@marcoarment Lack of a core built-in iOS app using it has always been extremely concerning. - View other replies

@reneritchie@lorenb@marcoarment Long live the memory of Texas Hold 'Em from Apple. -

@marcoarment Just pack up the green felt and drive it over oh forget it -

@marcoarment No no, you don’t get it. Game center does millions of transactions a day, it’s never been better. People just think it’s broken - View other replies

@Alticus@marcoarment Maybe we can drive Game Center over to Craig’s house? -
@Alticus@marcoarment Inb4: That joke is getting so old…

@marcoarment is it considered broken if no one uses it or remembers its there? -
@karstetter@marcoarment Millions use it. Many games rely on it, including loads of turn-based stuff. Individual experiences ≠ ubiquitous. -
@CraigGrannell@marcoarment most don't realize or care that they are using it in my opinion -
@karstetter Again, respectfully, your experience is not ubiquitous. And GC now _breaks_ a great many games. This is not a small thing. -
@CraigGrannell yeah, I understand that. That sucks for game developers

@marcoarment I find it astonishing Apple is only now admitting there’s a problem, after months of this. Says a lot about QA these days. -
@marcoarment It’s been a mess since day one, but is now for many literally not functional, impacting many apps and even Settings. -
@marcoarment Game Center: white screen for me. http://Settings.app (!) completely crashes for me if I try to open Game Center settings. -
@marcoarment hah! I see what you did there. Don’t worry, you’re not alone. The cheerleader rationalization of clear QA issues annoyed me too -
@marcoarment my favorite: playing game for a min, pauses, GC pops up interrupting gameplay, and those bubbles slowly animate into place. Ugh -
@marcoarment kind of expand on iCloud photo sharing. My family and friends use that a lot.
