Deus Ex: The Fall jams your gun on jailbroken iOS devices

4.5
Those playing Deus Ex: The Fall, which launched for iOS for $6.99, on jailbroken iDevices have found none of their guns work – not even the tranquilizer gun.

The limitation was first outed on Reddit, with many reviews in the App store describing the game's surprise "feature." The prompt above occurs right after the movement tutorial in the game, at the outset of the shooting tutorial.

Jailbreaking refers to the act of unlocking functionality within iOS devices not originally intended for the end user. While not illegal, it does void the warranty of the device in question.

L33t-Ninja-Much kind of ridiculous in my opinion if you void the warranty then thats your responsibility but making it to where a game dont work wtf thats sad in a way


the reason why they did this was to stop people from playing their game free that had not bought it yet, makes sense to me.

booster97 Lol this is funny. Serves those who don't want to support the developers right.


But some people actually bought the game on a jailbroken device and encountered the error...


This is true, My ipod is jailbroken but i only used it to customize the layout... Not free games because i actually have money...


this is why i don't bother jailbreaking. i jailbreaked my iphone 4 but i have an iphone 5 now
