Yeah that's actually a known (but elusive) bug Please remember to keep feedback to [email protected], thanks
Man all these units and equipment is making my head spin. Runs great on my 5 so far at normal settings. Can't wait for multiplayer! Hey foursaken will the icloud progress sync over ? Can I give you some money already through the iap??? ( no worries anyone they are completely optional)
Haha yeah... there is a LOT of content to explore and discover I think it'll take most people 20-30 hours to "complete" the game (there will still of course be endless and the multiplayer modes after you beat the game). I believe iCloud should sync over from the beta, but I'll have to double check with Connor - can't make any guarantees. It also depends on if any major changes are made from now to release (which I doubt) that would break your current save. And no, I don't believe IAPs are purchasable in beta... thanks for the thought though haha
I mean, its actually a feature... flight skill Seriously though, getting some really good feedback already. Thanks guys, keep sending it in!
Yeah. This is pretty much exactly as good as everyone dreamed* it would be. Foursaken, once you are ready to lift the unwritten ETA and want us to start leaking some actual impressions, holler, and I (and probably many others) will hit the forums with a ready-made write-up. * Dreamed. Not expected. Though since this is Foursaken, my guess is expectations fall not far from the tree of utopia.
Currently, I don't think his attacking actives do... But in case you didn't know, you can actually carry a short bow in your off-hand and a sword in you main hand, and switch between the 2 weapons at will That way you can use the sword for attacking abilities and bow for long range.
I'm finding it a lot more challenging than the first. Roles are definitely more emphasized. For instance archers are going to wreck you if you don't deal with them appropriately. It's def not a button masher and recruit the perfect crew for every battle like the first one was. So if I get another hero I can use them on the battlefield as well or how does that work? Do they all have their own set of skill trees ?
Yeah... its definitely not "spam your strongest unit" like the 1st one became. One of the things we're going to be adding for the first few rounds is more explicit instruction on unit roles and counters, to get players used to the concept more. A bit more hand holding for the first 4-5 waves. There are also the mercenaries once you lose a mission a few times, so it theoretically it should be impossible to ever get stuck on a wave Re: heroes, not sure if you got to the extra hero tutorial yet (after wave 5-6 i think), but extra heroes can be a HUGE help. Basically, you can continue where you left off if you die with your selected hero and have other heroes. So yes, that means if you have 5 level 25 heroes, you can continue 4 times in the same battle (but only if they're killing your hero - you cannot continue if your crystal or outpost is destroyed). There are some restrictions on continuing, explained in the tutorial once you get a second hero. And they each have their own skill trees according to race, yes. No, it'll be supported - just not officially tested for beta. I think 1 or 2 people have an Ipad 3 and said it ran fine, with bits of slowdown, which is what we would expect (we still have optimizing to do + haven't even set up the appropriate default graphics options for those devices). We're not ready to give an official list of supported devices quite yet.
I'm playing on my iPad2 right now and it's holding pretty ok for the most part so I assume it should work on an iPad3 Gone are the days where I can just charge and wreck mobs amass. Gone are the days of one hitting everything into oblivion. There is no more gung ho kill everyone in sight option anymore 'cause that's how you die xD One has to constantly adapt and change strategies every level because you can't just go spam blunderbuss and riflemen with cannons and dwarf hut anymore. Not that it's bad, it just makes the game all the more awesome.
Thanks for the respond, Foursaken Media! I hope at least iPad 3 is supported because Sambobsung can play with an iPad 2. Actually, there is something that I really wanted to ask about Heroes & Castles 2 that I think are never mentioned in the forum (sorry if it was already answered). I just played the original Heroes & Castles a few weeks ago, and it only excited me more for the second one. One feature that I though was very great is the Siege Mode, where we can play as the evil side. Are there any similar mode in Heroes & Castles 2?
Ipad 2 is the best of all Ipads, yes they should try make it playable on Ipad 2 as well. You know, let people choose their own quality of graphics in option. Edit. Hence, the majority of Ipad users have Ipad2 (30%) i believe that includes all Tablets, android and etc.
This game is incredible and after the beta is finished i know its gonna be even better. Great job Foursaken im really impressed with what iv played so far
