I just played 2 games of siege, and my wormwood tree did not give me +3 income, I just got the standard +1. The cultists are much more expensive. And the wraith, which was one of evils only advantages, is much weaker and only creates 1 per 50, as opposed to 3 per 75 before the update. I honestly don't see how any experienced or skilled player is going to lose as good ATM.
Yeah. Once giants are up and the wormwood tree is down, your screwed. I would love to see some lower graphics quality in coop. When my teammate summons a full army of pikemen/blunderbuss I crash...
It could be just the effect of later enemies having much higher damage. But if you're kiting a bunch of trolls while other enemies keep hacking at the all, you'll notice the wall damage keep going up after each repair cool down (eventually draining all your gold).
Thanks for the tip... Unfortunately still can't buy him for money. Has anyone else manged to pay money for the Veteran??
Played some coop with this new patch, crashed twice out of no where, crashed again when someone sent me a GC friend request. I think my time with this game has to a end, too frustrating
It doesn't give extra income... that was an earlier iteration of balance. After testing that out, we found that the same thing that was happening, still happened (bum rushing all your eco, then the tree). I'm not seeing this... are you sure you don't have a +2 gold rune? Number of units doesn't have anything to do with stability. Its either under the memory threshold, or not... although on any low gen device the OS has the power to shut off ANY app when there are issues with memory, including your current one. As long as there are no bg apps running, our tests have been great with the old gens... I suppose we'll check it out some more if there are reports of low gen crashing. Apparently there was a problem with the IAP going through... trying to get it sorted out now. Might be a few days >_< We'll check out the leaderboards to see the sorting issue. As for difficult, wasn't changed at all... we fixed a few exploits, and problems, but nothing major changed at all. Uhhh, Defenders are a bonus, support unit. Anyone thinking that they are a primary mechanic for Veteran is mistaken (though, you can use them to great effect). You're probably doing something wrong if you're spamming them... its a strategy, but I certainly wouldn't want my partner spamming Defenders... Because of all of his charge type abilities and attacks, he has the potential to do more damage then all the other heroes... therefor splash is much more powerful on him. Also the ability also stuns... Nope, this is new.
Update is up!!!! Bought new hero, all skins, maxed unit... Not sure how clock defender works. Any idea?
U buy it and it is indestructible and after 60 seconds if buffs the veteran for a short time. Really helpful
I just want to comment on how good the Clockwork Defender special unit for the veteran is. These little dudes compliment him near perfect (if they had an +HP buff with the atk/def they'd be L33T). They aggro VERY well, are total meatshields, are cheap to make, and the end buffs are very welcoming. I can't wait to max out all my skills for the Veteran to see him really shine. If I can farm a Legendary Rune with +Run and +HP per sec, I'll be set with this guy! A: Assassin= dual wielding blades, poison blades & AOE cloud, and traps. Quick, nimble, and fragile. Pure offense. B: Bard= Lute user/ powerful (songs) buffs/ powerful AOE attacks. Special unit would be a Jester that throws bombs that AOE; cheap to make and fragile. D: Druid= Shillelagh type weapon. Summons nature for attacks/buffs to Druid. Passive skills that further buff Druid like thorns and buffs to summons. I could also see: A: Assassin just seems like a perfect fit. B: Beastmaster= Bow/Staff weapon. Summons animals that specialize on certain enemy types. i.e. Tiger for normal enemies, Bear for bigger enemies, and Hawk for projectile shooters. D: Defender = Tower Shield & Lance (think Monster Hunter series). Complete Meatshield that's slow but can charge through enemies with lance, single enemy strong piercing attacks, can't AOE but can aggro with super high defense. Can buff pikeman. Whatever they will be I know they will be done right and am looking forward to them. Thanks Foursaken for the hard work! *goes back to leveling up Veteran*
Yes, I had that rune equipped. Overall I like how the new endless looks. Much closer to 20-30 mins mark you guys had envisioned.
I did not play any coop game with new hero but max defenders for 2x clockwork makes twice the effect! If i'll play coop and meet someone using him while I'll use him as well I'll choose this strategy for sure at least to try it
The gold does cap at 999 in endless but Remember when Foursaken said that endless was supposed to be only 20-30 minutes long? Instead of capping at 50, the gold caps at 999 which I would say is okay. My strategy of 4 riflemen, 2 longbeards, and 1 repair dwarf still works, but is a bit nerfed. Went 20 minutes before dying to a troll ._.
Foursaken Media Can you comment on the annoying popup to rate the game on app store? It asks me after every game... Am i the only one that thinks Veteran special unit is lackluster compared to other heroes? You either have to spam it or not use it at all... It's buff is also very small range.
Then it may be just a coincidence though it has happened many times. It's probably low memory. I looked at the diagnostics and usage and saw low memory files...
I seemed to have gotten the pop-up bug once, then I restarted and it was gone... not sure whats causing it, but we'll have it fixed up for a quick hotfix. In the meantime, can you try completely shutting the app down from the task bar, and seeing if its still there when you start it back up? As for Defenders, their buff is only one part of the unit (and the buff range is unlimited, FYI)... they are also the ultimate defensive unit. Its a different type of special unit, but it fits with Veterans theme perfectly. Mind you its definitely NOT spam or nothing... not sure why you'd think that. I've had great success with a constant dose of 1-2 of these units out at once through some of the harder levels.
Thanks for the response Foursaken Media! I actually didn't bother reading the update details in my rush to download it
Soooo VS is just terrible now,I don't know how you don't play test these things. Evil hero losing his run against a high level ranger is just stupid.
Haha, yeah thats it... we just throw it out there, no testing at all. We did MAJOR play testing - with 2 closely matched players - and I still stand by the balance is better than ever, if not actually pretty darn good now. I just had a couple of great matches on both sides... really liking the balance so far... have experience a lot of back and forth battles, which is nice Hmmm, Ranger is now the easiest hero to beat, imo... So far fought 1 1750 Ranger and destroyed him in about 20 seconds. Especially high level ones. He is so easy to overwhelm almost instantly. Not to mention now that Evil heroes are more powerful offensively against Good heroes (did I mention they got a slight HP buff?) You can actually fight away from your tree without fear of instantly dying now... you should be taking the fight hard at a Ranger first thing to keep them on their toes. Either theyre focusing on your tree while you whack them, they're focusing on your evil units while you whack them, or he tries to focus on you, while you're army beats his walls down and you tech up.
