    I like COM Zombie's simplicity, graphics, and the ability to use melee weapons. This seems a little more sophisticated in most respects and has multiplayer, but so far I have spent more time with COM.

    How to use Armor Bonuses?

    Guys,

    do you know how to use bonuses provided by i.e. Thunder suite? It says: Activate or Use - +50% power, etc with 30 sec cooldown.

    There's a button above your right stick.

    Do you mean "Weapon select" icon? Or the other one I saw on youtube demo (with 4 small arrows pointing up) just above and right right stick.

    Weird but I don't have that one, even though I have Thunder Legs. Does one need to have full armor set to have that?

    Anyone interested in doing some Lair/Training grounds farming - or ANYTHING else for that matter. PLEASE add me - D3YL is my username on Gamecenter. I am desperate for some people to tear up some Co-op with.

    Also,
    in your experience, what do you guys think is the best non-IAP gun(s)?

    Most expensive chaingun damage wise. A demonic gun spawned from hell. Costs a fortune to fire and upgrade but the damage (before the soon to be released update) is absolutely unmatched.

    I personally prefer the most expensive laser gun + atomic armor set. Its penetrating bullets can lead to many satisfying multi-kill situations. I do not own a fully upgraded chaingun so I cannot compare the damage between these two.

    It has just occured to me that I don't know how to invite someone to a group using game center. I'm not sure if this is possible, regardless.

    How would we go about joining the same game? A relatively detailed explanation would be greatly appreciated.

    I am just starting. I have the 25k everything. Can all guns be upgraded? I dont see a button for that. Do I have any activateable powers, or I have to buy the health kit, etc?

    Guns can be upgraded. You have to do that in your inventory, not the store. The only activateable power (afaik though I haven't seen the brand new stuff yet) is the Thunder suit set bonus. Health kits are not powers they are items. Any items you have in your pack can be used by tapping the bottom of the screen, then tapping the item you want to use.

    If i could make a few suggestions... There are a couple minor tweaks that could be made for the next update :3 the thunder suit's special button's tap space could be a little larger, due to te fact that people are usually focused on that button in battle.. The sounds keep switching between basic sound and 'sound effects' , and the music of the game continues to play, even though I've switched it off. Along with the right stick controlling. It doesn't stay still unless it's dead centre. And if we want to aim to the left, it will continue to move, even after our cursor has reached the target, making it quite irritating, having to move the stick back to the right to compensate for the continuous left-scrolling. If we stop moving our thumbs, I think the player's sight should also stop moving.. Just a guess? Eiter way, not to sound demanding-I still love the game-just a couple minor adjustments :)

    Wouldnt a password be hard though? Since players can't send direct messages over gamecenter to let the other person know what the password is? The rank-restriction and invites are a good idea, but maybe the ability to kick players from your room would be a nice addidition :)

    So is it better to upgrade your existing guns to keep the lower energy cost?

    Also, if you switch to the -20 energy bag, buy ammo, then switch to another bag, you get the savings, right? So that bag is a good buy.

    Basically, see how far you can get without upgrading the first gun too much, then buy a mid level gun. At that point start saving for whatever gun you ultimately want, and upgrade your mid level gun whenever you feel you need more power.

    No, energy is energy. The energy ammo conversion seems to confuse a lot of people. When you buy "ammo" you are really buying energy (1 money per 1 energy I believe). Each weapon uses a certain amount of energy per shot, so ammo=energy/current weapon cost. The -energy bonus only affects the amount of energy taken when you fire a weapon so it only helps if you use that pack while shooting. That said, it's a money saver but you can't take it off.

    What do you all think is the best gun for ammo efficiency, while still being powerful in terms of damage?

    I bought the 750k laser weapon a few minutes ago, is this worth getting the top upgrade?

    I am planning on saving a bunch of money to set aside for updates that include new armor sets and weapons. I typically just go play single player on Training Base if I want lots of money, I always bring 2 weapons, and a few items. (Speed, POW, Dmg Reduction) Which 2 weapons should I use to maximize my profits? Some of my weapons: $750,000 Laser Gun (Rank 1), $1.4M Chain Gun(Rank 4), FR38 Assault Rifle (Fully Upgraded).!

    Which combination should I use? (I am willing to buy a new gun) bearing in mind decent efficiency is a priority

    That laser is my gun of choice. It's a great mix of ammo efficiency, piercing damage (fairly devastating with the Atom suit especially), and speed (no speed reduction like heavy weapons. Fully upgraded, it has 490 power, .25 rate, and 45 cost. The most ammo efficient is probably the assault rifle. The top one, fully upgraded, has 350 power, .24 rate, and only 18 cost.

    You will make the most money using the assault rifle probably, best efficiency and still powerful enough to kill enemies faster than they'll respawn. I should mention that you make way more money playing online than offline. Running Sigfried's level repeatly, skipping the boss seems to be the most efficient way to make money.

    Thanks for the maths, but you disregarded one thing:

    The laser can pierce enemies, the assault rifle can't. That's why the laser with atom armor bonus will be more cost effective if you shoot multiple enemies and not engage individual targets.
