Thx much! Actually the sword got a nerf. It was really OP before. I am in the middle of a small balancing update and the sword will be getting buffed a little. It's tough because the sword does so much more than damage enemies. It can be spammed because of no cooldown, make the player invicible without hindering their movement, and destroy huge groups of bullets. So yeah, it's been a struggle to get the balance of this thing right. Thx for playing and the comment! :)
I know I may not speak for the majority of people but I think that the sword special needs to be made better: more damage, range or less special used. It's not worth upgrading mainly because the torpedo is so much better.
can you explain? you can gain basically everything offline that you can online, except for fighting in adventure
