Just unlocked level 8 insane. Just 4 more medals to go - and it's gonna be hard, insanely hard. Proud to say I'm at the top of my friends' score leaderboard Still have 4 or 5 more cards to get.
Good job! I am still getting my butt kicked back on earlier levels on insane. And, I almost have complete upgrades... I am going to have to start using a load out of stuff at the start of the level rather than rely on boxes or randomness to get some material. There is part of me that thinks I shouldn't need anything extra to beat a level though...
Believe me, some of the early insane levels are very hard without boosts, especially levels 4 and 7. Is your ship fully upgraded?
Yeah, pretty much. Everything but the bombs are fully upgraded (just did all the upgrades recently). It is just stubbornness and some stupidity thrown it to think I have the same reflexes I did as a much younger player. My kids won't even play coop FPS's on consoles because I am way too slow with aiming and firing. Sky Force is nice because much of the work is managed by the UI and taking your finger off with the massive slow down is pure genius, but when the screen gets busy, I don't dodge too well. Sort of like the guys in Dodge Ball (If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball - right as he gets hit in the head with a wrench) I am still having a blast with it though and I have beat the boss on level 8 a couple times (first tier)
Right on! I find it entertaining to watch people who aren't familiar with console controllers trying to plays FPS - no offense I have to agree the one finger controls on Sky Force are perfect. There's a card that speeds up ship movement that might really help with the maneuverability. I love the collectible cards in this game. Can't wait to get 'em all.
All except the center one. I have already gotten through the stage once. A lazer wouldn't kill the center but if you destroy all the turrets firing at you... you have finished the stage. Trick is to not kill all the turrets and pick the people up while the clock is still ticking, then finish the last turret before the timer or you are deaad. It is a challenge It has harder levels too
You'll most certainly need the powerups on insane levels, probably on hard levels too. Unless you have ninja reflexes.. It's a good thing in my opinion, as it gives a reason to collect stars when the ship is fully upgraded.
Ninja or not, I don't think it's even possible to even finish Stage 8, Insane, without buying the power-ups. I certainly don't know anyone who would manage that Anyway, the update should be live already! Here's what's in it: - Bonus level with a bit different gameplay mechanics. - Maximum level for Wing Cannons increased (Yes!) to 4. - The last hidden achievement is now achievable. Enjoy the update! As always, feedback is welcome. Best regards, Peter, Infinite Dreams.
has anyone tried the game after the new iOS update yet? I'm still a long way to go from collecting all the cards and I was wondering if the cards drop rates were erm... decreased in the latest update and if I should hold off updating for a while
I was able to test this great game since april, but i put it aside after the launch in june (played too much). Now i'm back in battle again, and Peter & Crew, you turned this game into awesomeness ! Thanks a lot and keep up your incredible outstanding work.
Love this game. I have been playing it non stop. Some of you guys are insanely good at it. I haven't been able to play the tournament cause I have no friends. (That sounds so sad to write.) So hit me up! One suggestion I have is to allow duplicate cards to be traded for stars. I have been getting a ton of duplicates lately. I get so excited to collect it and finish the level, then wah wah wah. Great game! Bought the doubler!
The new bonus level and level 4 side cannons update + one of the achievements was fixed. I got the update early this morning. Should be there for you too?
It certainly is a challenge, but a welcome one. And I love the different gameplay mechanic. So after finishing it on normal I got an achievement, but did not get a chance to read it. When looking at my achievements now I only see one hidden achievement. Which one could it have been? Any hints on what the other hidden one is achieved?
Oh, this reply makes my day - I won't feel like such a wimp now to get a load out. I have finished levels 1 - 3 insane without ever starting with anything. I have been having problems with level 4 second tier untouchable. I got through level 6 tier 1 and 2 without using anything and level 7 first tier - so maybe I have some "skillz" after all. (we won't discuss level 5 ) And, there does need to be a reason to keep getting stars after everything is upgraded... I loved the Create! simulation and you folks did just as phenomenal a job with Sky Force.
