    Yes, but keep in mind that it will only transfer your general character profile (ie your game settings, character level, rare minerals, and your weapon/turret/equip unlocks). It will NOT transfer over individual save games. Unfortunately individual save game data is just too big to be sending over the cloud, especially considering most people will have tons of save games >_<

    We're hoping once the upload/download servers go up, some of this will be mitigated bc you'll be able to just upload/download your own maps to all your devices.

    I'm pretty sure orbitals only do Max damage at 10 lasers. Isn't anything past that a waste?

    Any plans for a website that shows all units and enemy details? To be honest at long range i never see the actual enemy so most of them i have no idea what they look like.

    The spotter item is nice but where can i look up which icon is what enemy?

    What happens when more players hit lvl 50 and upgrade everything? Any plans got new and harder enemies at wave 40+?

    Well what you can do is replace the ground around your base with Mesh, so you don't end up destroying almost everything. I do that and it works out okay :D and consider this, the PR is kind of like a free debris clear with a better effect.

    Do we get M if we don't put the mine shaft or mine drill on a mine deposit??
    If not what should we do when all the mine deposits are exhausted?

    I'm thinking you would just get overwhelmed at some point because you won't have enough minerals to spend on defenses. You would evevntually lose... Has anyone made it that far yet?

    you still get minerals if you put shafts/drills on regular ground, just not as much as a mineral deposit. When you get into the later parts of the game, you can put your mines/drills next to your base and survive as long as you can. The game isnt meant to be beaten easily(not sure if it can be beaten at all).

    I'm stuck at lvl 37 atm. For me, I find that for later levels my defense are not the problem, its the wraiths. They go straight for my defenses a lot and even though i beat the round, i dont save because half of my defenses were destroyed :/

    I guess i can put decoy turrets around but they're really squishy and expensive.

    thx for the answer. and how many M can you get if you put the drill or shaft on regular ground?
    can you post your castle? i'm not sure how to build a castle for survival mode. i am on level 23, and i think my castle is just too big. it costs a lot of blocks to get it covered...

    I'm curious to hear how sharing is going to work once it is implemented after the update. What if the player downloading a user-created level hasn't unlocked some of the items used in the base - will they still be able to play? Or just as an example, what if the creator of a base uses lots of self-powered lights but the player downloading the level doesn't have the lights upgraded, won't things be messed up?

    I hope they make sharing optional. What I mean is that we would have to submit our map ourselves for it to be available to others rather than all maps be available to everyone.

    I'm pretty sure it will be optional. I can't imagine players being forced to share every game they play/create with everyone else.

    I can't imagine they would make it mandatory. It would making saving games extremely clunky and impossible to do without wifi.

    Just unlocked the mining drill. Holy crap.
