Pretty nifty. It's definitely an idle shooter.. That's a great name for it. The genre Buster's strike again lol. Eli or Jared better get that write up written or millions upon millions of FM fans will revolt
Gameplay looks amazing. Since I am a huge idle gamer fan, I am 100% looking forward to when this releases. I just have a couple of questions though. When you prestige, are the prestige bonuses you earn 1a. Like passives? (aka every 1 war totem earned gives you +10% dps to all sources) 1b. Like milestones? (aka you only get war totems and extra cash every time you pass increasingly higher cumulative goals) It was a bit hard to tell in the prestige screen When you upgrade, I saw that some levels had only 6 upgrades while others had 1000? 2a. Will you be able to somehow evolve your allies/weapons after it hits caps? Aka like how tap titans does it 2b. Or is it a fixed upgrade limit and the only way you can get stronger is by constantly progressing? Are there any other bonuses you can earn to increase dps if the upgrade limit is fixed? Lastly, regarding the perks. 3a. Will similar perks be combined into each other or are they just put down right below the other? A bit hard to see everything listed in the video AKA, 200% dps to all + 350% dps to all = 550% dps to all or 200% dps to all 20+ dps to turret 50% dps to all Any answer you can provide would be awesome.
^I think we should refrain from asking specifics like that when the game isnt out yet. Im sure once the game is out a few or more of these questions will be answered by playing the game alone. And the rest of the more indepth mechanics and maths, we can ask later on.
Good questions! I'll put the answers in spoiler tags in case anyone wants to figure that stuff out on there own at launch Spoiler So, for primary global bonuses, there are 2 ways to earn them. When you prestige, you get a damage bonus and +bonus starting money, based on your wave progress (these are set values that you keep forever - its not like in some other clickers where you either have to keep your trophies for damage bonus or spend them on artifacts). However, you also get an extra bonus every time you beat your previous best wave reached, so it really encourages you to progress further each time you prestige. You earn War Tokens by reaching certain overall wave milestones that increase each time. Sometimes you can earn a War Token when coming back from away as well (random). As for upgrades, its a fixed cap. For example, there is an upgrade for squad size, weapon upgrades, AoE, weapon range, cooldown, etc - depending on the unit. Damage is the "main" upgrade, which has 1000 max limit. We also have a lot of other cool ideas I hope we can add in the future! Finally, Perks that are the same are combined (ie if you got 3 different "+x damage to all" perks, it would combine into one perk with a cumulative value. The Perks also extend to lots of different other things, like money, health, and others.
Foursaken by " Spoiler earn war token when come back from away " do you mean that we can randomly get one if we start playing after not playing for a few days?
Correct - you earn money while away like in most idle games, plus the chance to earn a token increases the longer you're away.
Oh cool! Nice to see that it's not a straight loss if you aren't active for a bit. Does the chance have a cap or are you guaranteed to get one after a certain amount of time?
Why did the War Tortoise cross the road? To get to the Shell Station and upgrade his gun carriagd by 40% and Howitzers +10 damage. ...ZING! This will actually be a game im looking more forward to for my phone vs my tablet, bc of the slightly more casualness vs other FM games... All is Lost will be a staple on the phone, too.. when it goes Android I guess crosss platform saves are a pain though, arent they?
First trailer out! Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel I believe you are guaranteed one after a certain amount of time.
I really hope the release of an official trailer means this is ready to go live and wont have to wait too long anymore.
Game is 99% complete and will almost certainly be hitting the App Store sometime in March or early April!... then later war tortoise is coming April 28th to iOS, lmao
Argh Please just hit the release button. That video is epic. This game is going to be freaken epic. I can't wait to drop money on this. Billy
