    Can't get enough of this game.
    Lots of great addons along with the gameplay we already love plus more.
    The changing directions , missions, in game missions, achievements and leaderboard make this game amazing.
    The controls are perfect and no flaws yet.

    Loving the missions. The landing zones are huge and very effective for overall playing. Perfect was to implement videos if you need to get further and don't want to spend coins. Tom me that's the best way to donfree to play and it works perfect in this game .
    So many unlockables so far and so many different copters.
    I'm such a huge fan I can't get enough

    This is so great! Dustoff 1 was one of my favorite games of all time and now this seems destined to be!

    I love the variety of helicopters, the swiping for direction change works great, and I love the huge variety of missions. And the radar is incredibly useful. The handling and control of the copters is great. My one suggestion so far (and you may already have this built in and I haven't gotten to it yet) is it would be fun for the shooting if we could have an option so we could fire when we want, rather than it just being on automatic when you get close to a target. I'd love to have an option to choose.

    I'm going to keep playing this with tremendous enthusiasm and hope I'll have some more useful suggestions, but this game is already perfection! Great job! Okay, more soon...

    Controls are great, missions are great and so far I have really been enjoying this. I haven't experienced any issues whatsoever.

    Any shot this is going to be premium? A) I want to be able to pay you for this amazing game and B) don't want to have to worry about coins for gas, bullets, etc

    Great job!

    Dustoff 2 : Free To Play

    Thanks for your words and support, we are glad to read it.
    The game is going to be free 2 play, but if you buy the unlimited fuel and unlimited service packs, you won't need to worry about gas, ammo etc. This way you can try the game for free and if you like it, you can get the consumables for the price of a premium game. Still, if you don't want to buy the IAP packs, watching a video ad can also replace spending coins.

    We would be pleased if the beta testers could answer the questions below:

    - Is the tutorial sufficient to fully understand the game mechanic?
    - Is there anything that is not easy to understand even if you play the game for a while?
    - Are the first 10 stages easy or difficult to complete in a 1 to 10 scale? 1 no challenge - easy, 10 impossible.
    - Is the game fun to play?
    - What did you achieve in the game in about an hour? Which was the last mission you completed? Which choppers and weapons did you buy? How much money do you have?
    - How long did it take to consume all the 10 fuel canisters? On which level did you play when you ran out of fuel? Did you wait for the refill or you watched videos or bought IAP items to refill it?
    - Did you use coins in the game or you watched videos instead?

    - Is the tutorial sufficient to fully understand the game mechanic?

    MY ANSWER: Yes it is easy to understand and I like that you can turn the copter different directions and the controls are perfect

    - Is there anything that is not easy to understand even if you play the game for a while?

    MY ANSWER: nothing major but I think it was level 6 that I went through on my first run not knowing that I had to grab the crates from the base and deliver but it could have been explained although I always skip directions so could of been my fault if it was stated.

    - Are the first 10 stages easy or difficult to complete in a 1 to 10 scale? 1 no challenge - easy, 10 impossible.

    MY ANSWER: i would rate them 5. None of them are impossible and most I've had to play more than a few times because i think I can get through without buying health and Ammo at the landing zones which are a great add on for this game. Probably My favorite thing so far in the game.

    - Is the game fun to play?

    MY ANSWER : HELI YEAH . As much as I love the first one I believe this one could be better. 10/10 stars

    - What did you achieve in the game in about an hour? Which was the last mission you completed? Which choppers and weapons did you buy? How much money do you have?

    MY ANSWER: Unlike the first one I haven't been playing like I did back then. On average I play each level Many times because it seems like some of the copters have low health . So I quit after 3 or 4 tries after not completing until the next try.
    I have less than 10k and have a few of the copters and weapons. Since the landing zones were added I watch more videos and that's by choice but if it gets too much I quit for the session .

    - How long did it take to consume all the 10 fuel canisters? On which level did you play when you ran out of fuel? Did you wait for the refill or you watched videos or bought IAP items to refill it?
    - Did you use coins in the game or you watched videos instead

    MY ANSWER: i haven't played the game long enough to use all the canisters in one play. Normally I play until I can't get past a level and if I don't want to waste all my money and I'm tired of watching videos I stop playing.

    We would be pleased if the beta testers could answer the questions below:

    - Is the tutorial sufficient to fully understand the game mechanic?

    Answer: I skipped it. And the game works fine.


    - Is there anything that is not easy to understand even if you play the game for a while?

    Answer: No


    - Are the first 10 stages easy or difficult to complete in a 1 to 10 scale? 1 no challenge - easy, 10 impossible.

    Answer: Something between. 4-6

    - Is the game fun to play?

    Answer: If you turn on the sound it makes a lot of fun. I still wait for better guns. My IAP dont work. Maybe a testflight problem. Iap works now, i cant stop playing. The hind is a hell ofaüixel heli.

    - What did you achieve in the game in about an hour? Which was the last mission you completed? Which choppers and weapons did you buy? How much money do you have?

    Answer: I am at Level 7 after 30-40min. And i still have only one weapon. But iam willing to buy the 5,99 package. ;-)


    - How long did it take to consume all the 10 fuel canisters? On which level did you play when you ran out of fuel? Did you wait for the refill or you watched videos or bought IAP items to refill it?

    I havent reach that point. My Kids are the reason.

    - Did you use coins in the game or you watched videos instead?

    I used coins. But i was forced to watch videos. 3times. At the end of a game.

    I had one crash until now. The game is a good part two. For the future: One or two more gamemodes would be nice. Build a Base or fligh with a limited amount of fuel.

    You guys made a good job. Iam happy that the 13th oct isnt that far away.

    First of all, after hours of playing this, it is still awesomely fun. I really have only positives to say but to answer your questions:

    The tutorial is fairly easy to understand but I found I really got the hang of it from just playing. For example, I love the radar but it took me a little bit to understand what all the symbols were, what my helicopter was on the radar, etc.

    I got to level 4 after about an hour and after playing it a lot, I'm at level 7. Level 6 is where I found it getting pretty difficult (but still fun!) and was probably around level 5 or 6 that I realized how useful the landing/re-supply bases are for getting my health and ammo back up. I always use coins for this as I find it relatively easy to build up coins and I want to keep playing without having to watch ads.

    One of the things I love most about this game is the variety of missions. I would love for this variety to continue and become even more varied as I progress through the game - and I love the variety of helicopters, too. Hoping for some really big models of helicopters, too. - maybe even an old-fashioned one, too, like a gyrocopter, just for fun!
