So with this new "difficulty" update: everything has been bumped up to the extremes in campaign mode. Yet the rewards are still only 10 gold upon 5x completion. Right, so you can basically get a free champ if you complete all 3 campaign mode 5x times, but starting from Egypt: everything will be God-tier with a level 30-40 or 50-60 deck at 4/5 completion, so what's the point? Clearly, the difficulty FAR OUTWEIGH's the reward. There will be NO new players who will get that "free" 1,000 gold without shelling out cash of their own. And with Arena as it is: it is going to take AGES to even scrap together a semi-coherent deck. These latest string of updates have done nothing but punish anyone who isn't a veteran who has a level 60 account and a deck full of Level 30+ cards.
I don't understand how the walkthrough works for the last 3 achievements; I only have a max of 936 cash, but the walkthrough video has him at an obscene amount stuff all over the place and still have 400-1.3k cash left over, why is that?
Alien campaign - Horrible balancing issues and retarded team AI. The "hard" factor is due to bad game mechanics where the opposing AI get the best gear and have perfect aim compared to your poor ass, and not being able to know how each weapon works before buying ='s you may have just wasted 1300+ credits that took you half an hour or more to grind. I know there's already a top-comment concerning the bad AI, but it's much more than that, which makes the Alien Campaign a HUGE hassle not based on game design, but by VERY flawed mechanics and horrendous balancing.
The only problem I have with bullet hells like this is that they DON'T have a full-screen mode, which just makes it more difficult than it has to be. Unless there is full-screen in this game and I haven't noticed yet?
Is there a way to cancel building placement? I found that whenever I click on a ability to prepare, then find that I have no need to use it; that it won't let me de-select that ability, unless I click on a tower that I want to place, but I don't want to spend money and raise the cost of a tower either, yet it won't let me de-select, is there something I'm missing?
Anyone mind making a video walkthrough for the diamond/challenges? Not really that good at this game when it tosses a bunch of units on the screen every turn.
Is there a guide somewhere? I really don't like all these "timed" missions; I don't get to enjoy the game and it's really stacked against you on those final stages. Anyone got some tips for the final mission with Crimson Horde?
I seem to keep getting over-whelmed by the continuous stream of reinforcements within the first 10 seconds + their lightning spam.
The Javelin Throw upgrade for reinforcements do NOT work in challenges for some reason, even when the restriction says Lvl4 Max. Why is that? I tried reloading and re-stating, but they just won't throw the lances.
I really don't think it's fair to have the bonus rounds be a mini-game like that, considering how VERY VALUABLE those equips are in Battle Mode, and haven't we already proven ourselves to make it to those bonus rounds to begin with? The mini-game itself is pretty bad as well, considering the lights are light blue within a white background, making it hard to see and the lights flash too quickly. People might say use Hypercam or some recorder to circumvent this problem, but you know what: NO ONE should even have to do that. The way the bonus rounds are constructed + the luck involved to even beat BL is the reason why the game is only a 3.5 rating at best. I'm not wasting time re-doing all those Battles just because of a failed bonus game attempt at a CRITICAL equip needed to beat BL; it's just redundancy at its finest.
I absolutely despise how you learn skills on here, since there's not enough time to learn what you want and you have to spam a skill 8-10 times to get the unlock for what you want, which is VERY difficult to pull off in some battles, depending on what you have to spam, and yes: 8-10 times you have to use that skill in a span of 1-2 waves, or else you DON'T get the unlock for it. I've tried several times to spam a move 5-8 times, but no, the game will 90% of the time screw you with filler skills in-place of what you want. It is beyond aggravating, especially on Epic Mode.
Er, so is there a way to build the char's stats? I've seen multiple guides on what skills to get, but no one seems to mention what stats you should be leveling for epic mode, anyone want to clue me in?
I like how all the equipment I need with STR/VIT stats require a hefty pre-requisite of high INT/WIL to use, while equipment with high INT/WIL require high STR/VIT....I mean what?
I say the game should SAVE once you put eggs in the stable, so you don't wake up the next morning to see that auto-save has you reset prior to you putting them in. Another 96 minutes I have to wait, ridiculous.
The normal difficulty is harder than the insane one, as it adds a lot of randomness with some control, but it's more hectic compared to insane levels: where there is rhyme/reason behind each room (even the last one).
