You can't just nerf the guns that are being customized and then pretend that it's more balanced like that. Now, guns like the KAC are useless even with the new customs because of the extravagant nerfs being used
Pro tip: if you're not landing any hits, hold shift while firing. You move slower but your accuracy increases a whole lot. Crouching also works.
Message to devs: Please actually listen to your players. We need cheaper repair costs, better roulette chances, a better anti-cheat engine, long-shots that also count as headshots, and a way to skip missions without using flipping gold.
My rating towards this game went down from 5/5 to 3/5. It's still fun, but stuff the devs said they would implement just.. isn't. I keep seeing "We'll work on it" or "It's planned". Ok, until what? 3 years? Please keep up with the updates.
To all newbies fighting the spores (green aliens). Either spam microlasers or quad missiles. Quad is decent to have to begin, but the real killer against spores are freeze rounds, as they will never have shields (even in higher levels)
Pincer. Me vs spore vs human. I keep both sides busy with artillery. Spore one-shots other human's base. I kill spore with remaining artillery. I freaking love moments like these. Makes the game even more worthwhile to play.
@NageshM1 asking the number of levels:
I'm pretty sure that the levels are procedural, meaning that they are randomly generated according to the level of difficulty. I mean, who has the time to program 100+ levels individually? cwwallis if you see this please confirm if this is true. Thanks! :)
Some very simple tips: Cobras obliterates cloud, anything with freeze will destroy green, and laser-halos or artillery-halos rape everything. Especially the artillery-halo.
If you are able to spam-rush artillery before mid-game, do it, especially against green, since they don't have phalanx and shields.
Cobras are a really good ship to have. They have outstanding range (which can actually use a nerf), disable shields (but not tactical shields) and have excellent range. Get it first if you can.
