Well, the junk gem is basically a cheat, so of course its going to be easy I'd strongly recommend playing TD mode legitimately for the most fun!
I want to make doubly clear that the mode IS tough, but definitely beatable without any cheats! A lot of the strategy will be to see what types of enemies are in any given level, and then building the appropriate turrets to counter. Power-ups and using your abilities are of course the x-factor.
Yeah, powerups are definitely vital. Make sure you can teleport to some enemies to make the most of you powerups whenever you can, especially with the poison powerup. It feels weird not being able to upgrade his equipment, but obviously that plays into the balance. It's a shame, GB would be a pretty cool normal hero!
Oh man, you guys weren't kidding when you warned that the new mode might be graphical overload. My iPad 2 is already seeing some lag even at level 3. That's probably just a sign that I need to upgrade soon. The new mode is great from what I've played so far though, Foursaken never fails to deliver.
That they don't fail. Also, the new Laser Turrets are pretty ballin'. I think I found a new favorite turret for Endless Kitchen runs.
So... Thoughts on the new beetle? And the new game mode? Mine is updating now and i'm so excited thanks for giving us a free bug
Beetle seems pretty powerful in terms of defense, distraction, and abilities, but his base damage is incredibly low. That's an overview on his stats.
Leaderboards Thanks guys for a great game...I have pretty much all the kid friendly ones (play with my young son). You guys make the best co-op games hands down. One question on the leader boards...does anyone know how the points are assigned, and if they are pre-update legacy lists? Currently, I'm listed as 2800 points and Round 16 on Kitchen, but last night I did Round 26 on the same kitchen level and only scored 1800 points. Cheers
Yeah this is from the info screen when you hold down your weapon's button above abilities so it's not just a random number I saw Edit: by the way, every hero's damage scales with level, just not this much
I clicked on the last mission in the TD game mode and there is an endless Can't wait to see everyone's scores... Wish that was in Block Fortress: War
