    Fix'd :p

    Yeah, I won't deny it - rockets aren't really that worthwhile in this game with their speed penalties and low overall damage ouput. You'd expect them to be more dangerous, but it really takes someone running around with three of them to make anyone try to run for the hills (and then turn around and gun down said rocket freak >.>)

    Yeah, but I actually noticed something from energy glove, they do grow, they grow and shrink, so 1 second they are big and the next small and over and over again, like a sine wave... Also their firerate makes them quite hard to dodge...

    Do you like BTHD more? I hate that game, my internet connection is never good enough to get to round 5.:mad:

    ...what the heck kind of projectile behaviour is that? It just used to be a single expanding fist that grew big enough to squash Siegfried =.="

    Hmm. Activity's too slow right now. I might call it a day, so don't hang around too long if everyone's away from here today JK :)

    I've managed to make it to Round 21 twice, thanks to my connection holding and the help of some strong teammates. Currently grinding crystals like a maniac because I want that Apollon - I'm already in possession of the strongest shotgun there is, and it's quite a nasty little piece of work :D

    BTHD is holding my interest for now - Star Warfare's been a long time companion of mine for a few months now, but I've always wondered and questioned when I would put it down ever since I've picked up most of what I need for boss runs (the Thunder Armour and the M-27).

    I've added additional goals to keep myself going (trying to buy out the store without IAPs, jailbreaking or using someone else's savefile and discovering previously unknown game mechanics), but once I've bought everything there is to buy, that's really the end of the line for me. There's the community aspect where I can play alongside you guys, but that won't be enough to keep me on this game forever - we can always meet again on another game though :D

    Hi everybody,

    Im new to this game but have put in a bit of work. Just reached rank 7, have the full strike armor and have 2,400,000 saved up for a weapon. I was thinking of buying the plasma weapon that costs 3,400,000 but i haven't tried any of the pricey weapons so i really dont know what is good. Can i get some advice on where to go from here?

    Ok, y'all complain about the unbalance and I agree that's the whole point of why I tried to make the TA members only matches to prevent it from being unbalanced. You said everyone needs to show off their stuff or whatever yet when I try to set up matches people won't play.

    Maybe the reason is people may care more than they think about their stuff and if that's not the case and I'm seeing it wrong then good.. I only play to have fun and want tO spread that mentality, I'm thr kind of person that would rather a co-operative effort to benefit something more than any one person can do alone. And for that you need to let go of a part of ur "Stuff".. If you think that ull be sharing to much of ur skill by doing that then dont, I'm not demanding anyone to play. I dunno I guess since I approach the game without caring about how good I am it makes it more fun...

    Anyways, even if we did have a team match you only have to do the same thing that u would normally do... The same bad stuff about what makes the game bad is keeping us from doing this... We have enough players here that we should have been able to have more than 1 game with 2 people vs 1

    I know that doesnt account for any games I wasn't in, but still I can't undrerstand why it's so hard to set up. Its probly just some miss communication I suppose. or I haven't gone about it the right way. Like I said I'm not good at that sort of thing and since no one else is doing it I have no other choice.

    Judging from what I've seen in the screenshots, I'd be absolutely horrible at it. I've tried playing CoD before, and going from how they look relatively similar, I'm pretty bad when it comes to realistic first-person shooters x_____x

    I'll set a price alert on it and check it out if its price drops again though. It's just a liiiittle too expensive for me right now when I'm not sure if I'd like it :p

    Let us know when you get around to putting your app up, I'll be sure to try it out :D

    Get the thunder armor, the hands first, 20% powewr, and then the rest. The weapon to get is the M-2781 it is more powerful than the 3,600,000 one.

    Oh dear Gawd am I missing a lot these days... here comes a bunch of posts...

    First, let me be CRYSTAL clear on something. I would never publicly call someone out for unsportsmanlike conduct. It helps no one, and it's against both my ethics and morals. Period.

    That said, I do have a private list of players who are selfish, cowardly, or otherwise not someone worth playing with. I must say, once you get a sense of what you're looking for, they tend to stand out long before it becomes an issue...

    Play with the same person two or three times, and your suspicions very quickly turn into relatively inarguable facts...

    You don't really need much advice(just check the posts on here for the past 50 pages lol) I guess the plasma weapon is pretty good although I've never used it.. U should play with me and other people here and join the SW group and post in that and stuff.

    If you look back a bit, I predicted this right after the new update...

    Lots of quitting, lots of closed rooms... I saw this coming from a mile away.

    Not this guy. As I've said before, I tend to like hanging out with a certain caliber of person...;)

    Hey Andrews, welcome to TouchArcade :D

    Before you read any of the advice I'm about to offer you, let me direct you to the Star Warfare Players' Group:

    http://forums.toucharcade.com/group.php?groupid=559

    "Sheinfell" is in the middle of writing a player's guide for new players and veterans alike, and there's also a whole bunch of other info that you can find floating around on there. Another major drawcard of that group is the match set-up thread - you can use that to organise matches with people who might be reading at the time, and I'm sure anyone who's on will be quite happy to lend you a hand if you want a partner for a boss-run or something :D

    I'm not sure what weapon you have right now, but if you want something which works well against bosses, the M-27B1 is the way to go. The speed penalty is a little annoying, but you'll get used to it - you can always switch out another weapon without a speed penalty if you need to dodge :p

    Personally, I'd suggest you grab the M-27B1 BEFORE the Crab (the plasma weapon you're talking about). The M-27's higher rate of fire means that it will do more damage than the Crab over the same period of time, and that comes in very handy against bosses. Also, don't forget to pack hyper clips you have room - they might cost $2000, but on the M-27, you'll have broken even by the time you've fired for 10 seconds - the next 20 seconds you fire is actually saving you ammo costs because of the extra damage you do.

    Armour-wise, I'd suggest you get the Thunder Armour - it has comparatively little HP compared to the things you can unlock at Ranks 7 and 8, but it's VERY much possible to defeat all 5 bosses with this armour alone. The low HP just means that you need to learn how to dodge - and once you've got that down, you really don't need much HP at all. You'll love the additional speed and power offered by the Thunder Armour's ability, I'll guarantee you that :p

    Hmm...I may have forgotten something, but I'm sure someone will cover it when they get around to reading this thread again. Hope you enjoy your time here :D

    Oh don't you worry, I already understood that strong moral stance about your personality, and I quite respect you for it :D

    What I meant by that post you were referring to was that the creation of a "Freeloader Stories" thread may well encourage other players to name and shame while telling their stories. I've always been hesitant about naming people publicly, and talking with you has reinforced that. From what I've seen, however, I don't believe that everyone else will necessarily stand by your same respectable values, sadly :(

    I feel like my post may have been missed or whatever... Just want to say that I know I don't know alot of the players here from being away so I'm not gonna make anymore judgements. I suppose thats a good reason for me not being able to get people to play..either that or they just don't want to..

    I hope everything can stay on good terms here and we can have fun and play the game etc..

    No worries with me, FWIW, reading 4-5 of your posts was all I needed to decide that you're a decent person...;):)

    So you know, I'm incredibly busy with grad school right now, but I'd love to play more SW with my peeps...;):D

    As for your last comment, from what I've seen in many other forums, TA is kind of an "adult video game player oasis," and I'm wholeheartedly with you. Let's try to keep it that way...
