I've focused mostly on endless and online co-op, and rest at only 156 stars at the moment. (By the way, once star requirements change, will we be awarded heroes retroactively if we have gone past a new unlock tier prior to updating? I'm assuming this will be the case, but figured I'd ask before I do more missions.)
Long time ago, with the original Ski Safari, after they implemented IAP, I saw such a good implementation of the model that I decided to support that one and dumped money there, not long after the system changed becoming unfair, and I felt disappointed. And now I decide to do that again and same thing, I feel like every time I invest on IAP, it turns on me. OK I will stick for the next update. After all, the game is very good and I enjoy it a lot.
I only have 70. I like the variety of the heroes so I have been grinding Endless for diamonds to continue to buy heroes. I have spent less time in missions.
FM, I truly think your loyal fanbase will stick with you and eagerly await each update and addition to the game. It seems most of the people criticizing have not even been following the thread (and your comments in it) and are not even familiar with your other games so don't know how much you are a part of these boards and consider all the valuable input given for future updates and other games. I am excited to see how Bug Heroes 2 continues to develop - even if it takes a little balancing and tweaking here and there to make it better. Now back to our regularly scheduled gaming...
Ayjona, actually earlier in this thread FM had stated the heroes would be rewarded retroactively if a person already had more than the needed number of stars.
Well, to be fair you're still getting the same value for your IAP - if anything, you're getting MORE value for your money now, after the update. Ultimately we always want people to simply be happy with their purchase... this is exactly why the one thing we're NOT doing is altering the IAP values or hero prices, bc we don't want players to every feel jipped on their purchases. Yep - definitely!
I very much like to see you defending yourselves, other developers either completely ignore this when it surfaces and/or never comes back again, so I give you a lot of credit for that. I will wait to see the outcome of this. Good to see this.
If your talking about the shadows, that would randomly happen to me during missions before the patch on Yard.
That could be the Shadows. All I remember is having them off all of first release. Should check, though. Edit: Shadows are off, but I noticed that the game tells me that my device cannot use High Graphics settings, although my device is an iPad 2. Unless this is because high graphics are ultrasexyawesome, is this a bug? I have no clue.
Ok enjoyed the new update as I can play missions again! But even in the missions gems seem low.... A four star mission earns only 2 gems??? That seems kinda small! Always a huge fan and will never leave you guys even in the ups and downs. Can't wait to see what happens to this game next
Ah. I meant shadows as in the dark spots on the map and not the settings. But I have shadows turned off in settings on my Iphone 5s.
Yeah, still tweaking it a bit. As an example - pre update that would've been good for 6 hero unlocks. After next update it'll be good for 9. The bigger difference is the ramp up isn't exponential anymore as you earn more stars... its a linear progression and it will take 3-5 hours to unlock each hero via missions - about the same time it took to grind away on endless pre-update, if I'm not mistaken.
Hmm. Well, I can live with the Yard being borked. It gives the feeling of it taking place at night for me. Which, by the way, that's something I miss from the first BH.
