Are you on wi-fi? I've heard that this game has issues with 3g/EDGE. EDIT: Just confirmed, look in the description; it says: "Wi-Fi support only."
sorry, I don't want to reread the whole thread, but what are the 7 weapons you can use in this game? Also, which control scheme is the best, and is that one any good?
I am connected to wifi..I only have an iPod touch 2g.. I don't know why I can't connect every other online game I have runs fine..this is becoming quite tiresome.
A shot in the dark here, but you could try disabling your wireless security for a moment and see if you can connect then. Certain wireless security schemes can do funky things sometimes.
Try referring to the help thread in the General Game Discussion and Questions Forum A few things though, the ray gun, which used to be the best weapon in the game, is now COMPLETELY USELESS; and the best weapons are the 2 (3 if you count the sawed-off) shotguns, the BAR, and the MG42; the flamethrower is good early on, but becomes useless around round 12. As for the controls, I prefer the touchscreen controls; most don't and instead use the dual stick controls; I think it's because nobody understands how to use them. It uses a floating joystick for aiming, NOT swiping (like MC:Sandstorm or ELIMINATE); so where you put your finger down is the joystick's "dead zone."
nop !! There are weapons mounted on the walls of each room, but you will not rely on these much. You can buy each of these weapons for the following: M1A1 Carbine – 600 points Kar98K – 200 points Thompson – 1500 points Double barrel shotgun – 1200 points BAR – 1800 points Trench gun – 1500 points Scoped Kar98K - 1500 points Sawed-off Shotgun – 1200 points 4 Steilhandgrenades – 250 points There are some things to keep in mind with the buyable weapons. In the very beginning it would be wise to use the M1A1 until random box is available. The scoped Kar98K is in the cabinet upstairs, don’t get it. It is not worth opening the cabinet. The Trench Gun is a decent choice for the lower levels, but you should trade it as soon as you can. Also, the hand grenades are always a good buy, it’s best to stay stocked up on those. Aside from those weapons, there is another way to get weapons. It is a box, a box sent from heaven; the RANDOM BOX! This box will give you a random weapon out of a limited selection. The random box's weapon takes 5 seconds to appear. The weapon stays for another 15 seconds or until it is taken, whichever comes first. The Random Box contains many weapons, some are great, but some are atrocious. I’ll point out the weapons that are great, good, and bad. Also, I should mention, all but a few weapons are better than the pistol, so if you roll a PTRS-41 sniper rifle and you haven’t replaced the pistol, take it. Worst Weapons – You don’t want these weapons. No. The absolute worst weapons are certainly the bolt action snipers, scope or no scope. The some of the better ones can kill in one hit in the first few rounds, but the reload time and slow fire rate puts these at the bottom of the list. Decent Weapons – These weapons are the ones you might consider keeping as a backup weapon, definitely not the best but beats having a bolt action rifle. Double-Barreled Shotgun and its sawed-off counterpart. Might be darn fun to use, but very impractical. Decent weapon up until wave 7-8, then the reload time will slow you down immensely. All submachine guns; some are better than others, but they all are decent. Assault rifles – single shots aren’t very good, but passable. The STG is a beast, but still not as good as the next category. Trench gun. This gun is a great short range one hit kill weapon, but fire rate and reload time is what bogs it down. Excellent Weapons – These weapons are the ones you want as primary and secondary weapons, if you don’t have the beastly weapons that is. All heavy machine guns. The MG42 and preferred, but the BAR, etc is pretty good. The .357 Magnum revolver barely passes the Excellent test. Its one hit kill up close, 2-3 hits from long range. Not bad, but it holds only 6 rounds and has a slow reload. Flamethrower. I’m not putting this in decent weapons because it’s a beast during insta-kill. It’s also pretty darn good up until around wave 10. After that, its trash. It blinds everyone, makes the zombies just walk around and hit you while on fire. Do your team a favor and only whip it out when there’s insta-kill. During those 30 seconds, every little particle of fire is a lethal hit to any and all zombies. Brutal. Beastly Weapons (Ultimate Combo) Browning M1919. This weapon is a beast, and a personal favorite. Two shots to the head of any level zombie will kill it. Pull up the sights, line up some zombies and rip away with the headshots. Enjoy. Ray Gun. Another beast. Further explained in the Ray Gun section.
