    How is income in online match calculated? What happens if I run out of ammo?

    It seems like boss payoff is a set amount that cuts in half on repeated kills the same day. Money from mobs is based on kills I think. So if you run out of ammo you'll only get money from pickups unless it's a boss run in which case I think you would still get the boss money if you survive to the end.

    There is no death penalty on gold. You still get all gold no matter you died in single or online mode. You get all money you earned before killed.

    In online mode, players get all gold from mobs killed by your own and a percentage of gold teammates get. As a result, everybody get more gold than solo.

    Players also get XP though its not displayed in online mode.

    Next update is around mid Feb with new contents. New mode update is after this one.

    My impressions from the last few days

    I should be doing some programming and updating of my own rather than playing this, but this app is really enjoyable at the moment! :)

    I don't buy any IAP's though. They are a tad too expensive on top of asking money up front to buy the game. It is good that they seem to be optional as it should be, but even the best gun should be a couple of £$ at the most in my opinion. Make them low and I don't know about any one else but I would be happier then to help myself to an advanced weapon...

    $20 is way too much for the laser cannon, that is the price of over 10 cheap full apps with lots of content, it needs to come down by an incredible ammount. I think this could hurt the game population really badly. I played this all day for the last few days online and there is barely any one that plays it.

    I'm only criticising it that much because its fun for me, so don't take it personally it is just my opinion. Others may not agree but I would rather gift a few angry birds (or anything else for 69p) to friends over shelling out a huge amount on gems in here.

    Currently one rank away from the top, does anything new unlock after the final tier of experience, or is it just to show off?

    Going back online to stock up some money for the updates, see ya. :D

    Oh and by the way I don't want to seem hypocritical as my own app is hardly perfect, but inside the mission maps there is still a spelling mistake where it says "combe kill", do you mean to say "combo kill" instead?

    Game Impressions

    So, after spending some time with this game, I actually really enjoy it. At first, I was turned off by how difficult it was to get ammo and how forceful the IAPs were. However, once I learned to conserve ammo and powered up the second rifle, I saw that it's actually a pretty good time, pretending to be in "Starship Troopers." Money come steadily enough, and now I can rake in a decent wad of cash after every round. I just started the Training base, so I've gotten pretty far.

    I have a few complaints, though. Online, even when people are present, ALWAYS ends in a server disconnect (losing me money AND ammo :( ). I'm in the US, FYI. Also, the shotguns seem to be about as effective as throwing tennis balls at the enemy. I have the second strongest shotgun which has been leveled up to do over 400 damage, and it still barely has any spread - when a crowd is in front of me, even of the weakest aliens, it barely scratches one of them.

    I've been enjoying the game, though, so I threw the devs a bone and bought some mythril, which I used on the bow and arrow. While it's not quite as effective as I had hoped, it does pretty good damage and has MUCH better spread than the shotgun, making it my goto when my rifle is getting overpowered.

    PLEASE get the servers working for the US, guys! It's been fun!

    edit: I also wanted to add how impressed I am with the game technically. I have a touch 4g, and the game runs super smoothly; not so much as a hiccup. Also, the controls are superb - You're not given any customization options, but the controls are very, very responsive - the game is kept simple enough such that you're never bogged down by controls, like I sometimes felt with Eliminate, to which this is similar in some ways. I just wish online functioned :(

    A few questions:

    1. Do weapons share the same ammo? Or do they just use different units of 'ammo' per shot?
    2. With the same number of upgrades, would the cheapest chaingun have a better bullet/damage ratio than the best non IAP assault rifle?
    3. What is that grey device with a blue top dropped by enemies?
    4. Is endless/survival mode a better option to gain money than normal maps?

    gunxsword,

    1. Read my earlier post. They all use the same energy for ammo, just different amounts per shot.

    2. Not sure but it seems like rifles are tge most efficient in terms of damage per energy used, but the minigun would of course do more damage per time.

    3. Energy (ammo).

    4. Seems like endless is better in my experience, though I sometimes still do the last level of training base since I hate how endless is just a matter of killing until ammo is out, then liking yourself.

    Thanks and to answer your questions:
    Q1. Controll sensitivity can be adjusted in Options

    Q2. Can you describe how you get disconnected?
    Waiting too long in room and get black screen more than 15 sec will be disconnected by server. If you were shooting in game and got disconnected, could be bad network.
