Feel free to join in on the multiplayer! To play online you must first go to Settings -> Game Center and then scroll to the bottom and flip the “Sandbox Mode” switch to “on”. Then start up ReconInForce and log into GameCenter.
Verified that ReconInForce runs best on iOS 8.1 or later. If the game is crashing please see if your operating system version is below 8.1.
