    Would there be an option for a future update to have a day/night time cycle? where it would go from dusk to night, your bikes lights would have to come on & make what was coming up ahead harder to judge (some cool light trails could be added to the bike headlights, especially the Akira type bike!).

    Kill 6 bosses?!?! Come on! Let them at least spawn more then!

    Travelled 10k+ and killed 1,5k zombies... Only 4 bosses in that time

    This would be a very awesome new feature to have, please consider it Dan

    Edit: Also, when asked to rate the game, the link leads to this: "The article is not available on your country" ???

    Like I said. Just my opinion. I still give them a chance but I just get bored so quickly by them. I just can't stand the repetitiveness that is inherent in the genre. Art style can compensate a bit, Le Vamp had me going for a couple of days. However they all inevitably grow stale and wind up in my deleted list within a week.

    All the little tweaks don't really make much of a difference to me if I don't find the core mechanic to be that fun to begin with. JJ, PQ and this game may have slight differences but not enough to elevate the genre to a something that I enjoy. Some titles that integrate a puzzle element into the gameplay can be kind of fun but with games like this it's just run run run, dodge dodge dodge, shoot shoot shoot and not much else. I just find it mindless, unrewarding and without challenge. I must also confess I'm sick to death of zombie games as well.

    As I said, I still give most of them a chance or I wouldn't have a right to comment on them but if anything the genre is just getting more and more boring and repetitive. It's getting to the point where I think I'll start having the same reaction when I hear the description "endless" as I do for "free to play". Which is to say skip it and move on to something better.

    50 kill combo mission is going to be a nightmare... I been trying already and no where near 50 kills in a row.

    Yeah, as soon as you complete that you'll have a 100 kill combo, next level, to look forward to.

    Go to the Suburbs level, and let them follow you for a bit. Then start killing. Hopefully you will run in to a stand group with a bunch of them. As long as you keep killing, the combo continues. I got it up to 60.

    I find that when you're looking for kills there's a few things that make it easier.

    1. play at the hardest difficulty level. This makes it so more of them spawn. It sounds bad but most of the time you can get them to run into obstacles like cars, other zombies, ramps, etc.

    2. don't accelerate unless you have to. You want to kill the ones behind you and have less to worry about in terms of the running into cars in front of you.

    3. Try to get a boss zombie to follow you for a while, they're great for killing zombies. Since it tails you, you basically have an obstacle behind you at all times.

    4. Pay attention to your ammo count. If you're going to come up to an obstacle and can get in front of it, like a ramp, unload your bullets so you have that time to reload. The enemies will kill themselves while you reload.

    Yikes! This game is like excite bike meets invader zim meets terminator! Addicted as hell right now! Fast, pretty and free - definitely worth a look for fans of quality action games

    Now I think about removing the ads and supporting the developer, but Im unsure of which method to use: Vera the Shooter, the Akira bike or just disable the ads. The first two could be game breakers and I want to unlock stuff the normal way, but it would be cool just to have both things, just for them to be there along the rest...

    Def get the ad free... I'm with you on supporting the dev. I feel my initial thoughts may have been a bit unfair, I assumed those iAP were pay-to-win. I've subsequently found you can do just fine without them and upgrading your vehicles will raise their stats high enough to compete.

    My plan is to unlock the vehicles and guns, then buy the iAP. That way I don't miss out on the journey as such. Developers whom get a game balance this right that is this fun, produce fair and classy iAPs and interact with their market are worth supporting.

    Combo crew is an amazingly polished title, and technically deserves masses of praise, but for me this is GOTW, it's just so deliciously playable. I think it would be shortsighted to dismiss this as another endless runner, there's so many aspects to this game that add depth and ingenuity.

    Sounds good! Don't like cheating (those freemium items feel like it) and want to see the game develop normally, so Im buying disable ads now and wait until I have everything to buy Vera and the bike :)

    You realize you don't have to use vera or the bike and it will still disable the ads.

    Yes but I will feel tempted to use them. I will buy them when I unlock everything else :)

    Yeah like what ^ said, you select them like weapons. I think the shooter is pretty decently balanced. She's good but not amazing. I think the Betty Boomer is a lot better but it really depends on your preference. The shooter still makes things challenging and I think looks cooler but explosives are a much better weapon because on higher levels you're facing hordes of enemies that automatics will run out of ammo too quick.

    Another reason to hold on and wait to see how it develops further into the game, just bought the disable ads one :)

    I bought the disable adds one too but man I wish all these types of games had double coin IAP or whatever.
