    In my game, latest update ver. 1.20 there's no option to get the Wing Cannons to level 4.
    Only health can go to level 4.

    If I'm not mistaken, the VIP's are tied to a "Oh hai, I see you've not played our game in a while!" type notification. This certainly used to be bugged, but was apparently fixed in a recent update. Unfortunately I'm playing regularly enough at the moment, to not be able to confirm or deny this :p

    I similarly only have 1/20 on Party Animal right now. I've only seen those rescues rarely though, so I don't know if that too is something that has been fixed recently, as with the VIP's.

    Hi!

    While an update awaits Apple's approval, I'll address some of the questions here.

    Achievements: "Party Animal" is bugged, fix awaits in the update. "Command is in your debt" should work fine. However, as we're only storing the progress of the game in the iCloud, there can be some confusion when playing on more than one device. Same goes for "Yeah, I'll Have A Bag Of Those". The last hidden achievement is... a secret! You should be able to complete it with the next update.

    Cards: The reason for the cards to "stop" showing up is a large probability gap between the regular cards and the golden ones. We actually didn't expect them to be consumed by players that fast. A card awarded almost every play was a mistake, which will be corrected with the update.

    Wing Cannons Lv4: In the update. forewer2000 was talking about the Android version, where the update is available already.

    @demonbasher: The "wonderful" bar resetting to zero is a tiny bug, but it's probably not the reason for the objective not being fulfilled.

    Again, thanks for playing SF! We hope the next update will bring even more fun (along with Wing Cannons).

    Best regards,
    Peter,
    Infinite Dreams.

    I got level 4 for health after I finished level 8 the first time(normal mode).
    Wing Cannons level 4 appeared after the last update. I don't know if it's related to the update or something else. I wonder if somebody has bigger levels for the other weapons?

    Oh, the achievements 'Yeah I'll have a bag of those', 'Party animal' & 'The command is in your debt' are definitely bugged. No amount of progress makes any difference. I managed to get 'Party animal' as I rescued 20 during a single gaming session.
    Regarding the cards, since not getting any since Sunday, I got all 4 I was missing yesterday in the space of a couple of hours, but now, with this 'camouflage' on the plane, the game crashes just before entering any stage.
    Bugs, bugs, bugs...:mad:

    Corrected how? The gold ones aren't becoming rarer, are they? :eek:

    Also, knowing that... *runs to grind cards now* :p

    Wait, you must not die or else you don't even get the card? This sounds bad... :eek:

    More bugs:

    No sound on iPhone 5S, despite killed from background, deleted and re-installed.

    Clean install to fix the crashing bug on iPad Air now means I have no sound there either.

    Should we have a separate thread for the bugs? :confused:

    Hi,

    Are you working on removing all the obvious cheaters? I've collected all medals for all levels and pretty much perfected the score on stages 1-6 on insane and almost perfect on stages 7&8 and I only got 27,2mil score. I see people with hundreds of million points which cant be right...What is the highest possible total scores level 1-8?

    Other than that, thanks for a great game!

    I've had the no-sound issue a couple of times, but it was easily fixed with a force quit for me.

    The developer answered this. It's because you're playing the Android version of the game. iOS version doesn't yet have level 4 on Wing Cannons.
    As this is an iOS games site I just assumed you were playing on an iPhone or iPad.

    Someone asked what level to use for farming stars, I wondered this myself so I made a list of times to complete a level and a note of how many stars collected per level. Note that of course time per level can vary depending how quickly you kill the boss. Number of stars might also vary depending on % collected and if the crates hold any stars or not, below list is between 90-100% stars collected. See below:

    Level 1: 2min 20s - 1188stars. 8,5 stars/second
    Level 2: 3min 10s - 1974stars. 10,3 stars/second
    Level 3: 3min 30s - 2526stars. 12stars/second
    Level 4: 3min 55s - 3050stars. 12,9stars/second
    Level 5: 2min 20s - 3582stars. 25,6stars/second
    Level 6: 3min 40s - 3194stars. 14,5stars/second
    Level 7: 6min - 4622stars. 12,8stars/second
    Level 8: 9min 40s - 6400stars. 11,3stars/second.

    So obviously level 5 should be the preferred level to farm stars since you cannot spend any money on special weapons either :)

    On another note:
    I also used level 5 to farm almost all of the cards since there are 3 crates right at the beginning of the level. So I started a new game, shot the three crates and if there were no cards in them I simply died quickly to the cannons and repeated this for a while until I had almost all the cards. Boring but effective...The last few cards I got on level 8.

    I have all but 4 cards. I have been playing on level 8 (Insane) a number of times and haven't received the cards. Which level were you playing on?

    I can't see these people with hundreds of millions, so I guess they must have been removed. There is however someone who just appeared out of the blue with 31+ million, even though PeterID said the current maximum was around 29 million.

    I dont remember exactly but as I wrote I got most of them on level 5 Insane. I got card no 24 just before the boss at level 8 insane when I had managed to "stay untouched" for the first (and only lol) time, dunno if this was a coincidence or not. Perhaps someone else can confirm/deny this.

    Im on android which probably explains why you cannot see it. Places 1-85 have above 100 million and top 25 all have above 2 000 000 000 :(:confused:

    Ah yes, sounds very much like the leaderboards on Plants vs Zombies 2 on iOS. All fake.

    Is anyone else getting close to this number of stars?




    Ignore this post... I just realised you probably purchased the star double IAP!




    Are those stats for iOS version 1.2 of the game on insane difficulty, as even allowing for differences of stars per crate and a few % off stars collected, I'm getting nowhere near those amounts.

    For example:

    Completing level 4 on insane with 99% of stars collected and 97% of enemies destroyed (including the boss), I got only 1514 stars.

    Completing level 6 on insane with 97% of stars collected and 98% of enemies destroyed (including the boss), I got only 1603 stars.

    That's a huge difference in stars awarded... too much to be just down to what's in the crates, IMHO.
