Dude, monty bro, going to moon to get a girlfriend? That idea is...it's just so...amazing! I had this stupid idea like if I wanted to meet chicks I might just try moving to the city or maybe getting myself together and going to college or something, but I'd never even thought of the moon! Heck, if the evidence contained within the historical documentary "star trek" is anything to go by, space women are even hotter than earth ones and can't get enough of space-traveling human males. I mean, just look at all the green women Kirk got with. Now I just have to find a scientist willing to sell me parts for a rocket suit in exchange for whatever random debris I can grab while flying through the sky, or in other words a scientist who really needs a whole lot of smashed bugs...
I agree with eladin; I wouldn't necessarily recommend a fast forward button, as I've come to realize over time that fast forward buttons are actually really difficult to implement, but it would be nice if some of the transitions and things were either shortened or gotten rid of altogether. Ya know, at the beginning of battle we don't need all the words and things, both parties should just come in, at the same time rather than one at a time with all the camera movement, and then we start. Battles end quickly and happen often, so we could do without all the fanfare that drags out battles and makes me want to rage quit after spending forever dredging my way through 41 floors of a dungeon only to get beaten by the boss on the 42nd.
This has a lot of potential, but there's just so much else wrong with it. Right now I'm most concerned with one thing though; when the update says "nerf boss a bit", does that mean bosses in general? B/c I seriously can't imagine any way that bosses could be harder than now. I mean, I'm killing off most enemies before they even get to attack, then dare to open a magic chest. I 1 hit the first enemy...then two ninja skeletons with 3.6k hp show up and kill off 2/3 of my guys in one turn, taking the last to 50%. The same basic thing happened before at H rank 0, except with those 3 guys romeo and the other two. That's the thing; this is happening at hunter rank 0 and 1, everything is so basic that it's not even like I could adjust my strategy. Maybe I could keep around heaps and heaps of revive potions and very slowly wittle the enemy down while reviving my guys every turn...or I could stop playing. I think I'll probably go with the latter.
pfft, I glanced down at the comment about the neurological disorder and thought "Ha, he does walk pretty strange. That's kinda funny". Then after playing through the game and looking back down I realized I was the one who wrote it two years ago. Good job, past me. Anyways, apocalypse isn't very hard, which is disappointing. I always like games like this to be fairly tough, as it really makes you feel more like you're getting better as time goes by rather than just getting upgrades for the sake of it and just mindlessly mowing down mobs of opponents. Idk why I'm saying this though, as this game is 4 years old at this point, so I'm guessing the time for making changes and/or sequel planning is long gone...
Wowza this is slow and...well, despite the winning combo of people behind it, it's just incredibly boring overall. Incredibly boring. By my 3rd run I was already getting fairly bored, and by the time I fully upgraded my first pet I seriously didn't ever die; I wound up just intentionally committing suicide at around 3k feet because I was still easily keeping my rocket pack up near full all the time. It doesn't feel like there's any progression or reason to play on, nothing really changes and everything just keeps moving along at the normal snail's pace.
To anyone having issues, a word of advice; there's a reason boots are more expensive than the other upgrades. Buy them, and pretty much only them. Even once you hit 5 stars, while you can't see it your speed can still continue being upgraded. See, the thing is that, true to reality, speed actually affects everything; when one of your guys is blazing along and slams into someone, it doesn't matter what their tackle is, they're still going to send the guy sailing just because they have so much momentum. You can increase your throw to throw faster...but however fast you throw, you'll still always throw faster than your run speed as your speed transfers into your throw. Then, of course, you can also just run circles around your opponents then zoom right past their keeper...
Dear lord, this sounds like it was made by the absolute whitest, most innocent minded people on earth. From the froofy god only knows what music to the constant references to drugs as "chemicals" and the fact that somehow, by walking up to the window, the woman can just tell he's high, and the fact that, despite him referring to her as "dear", meaning she's his wife or girlfriend, he puts up with her locking him instead of kicking the door down and telling the condescending bitch off for trying to prevent him from entering his own house, it's all just so...childlike.
Wait, I recognize that force field...is the point supposed to be that Von Toten invented the submachine? I do remember that at some point in the submachine series it said that the first submachine was invented sometime in the early 20th century. I do agree though that that's not a super final finale. It's still appropriate I suppose, but I'm not sure I'd call it epic if the point is supposed to be that they just quietly slip away and we have no idea what happens next...
Dude, I took one look at the captain with fully upgraded equipment and realized "wow, we sure look an awful lot like a giant dick...". C'mon, look at that. There's no way that's not a dick. Oh, and people are complaining about the letters and how it gets tougher to collect the faster you go, but the faster you go the less they're worth too. You could cover the ground an AHOY gives you in no time with any measure of equipment. I'd still say that maybe you shouldn't lose them, and they should definitely all be different colors or w/e, but it's not THAT big a deal I'd say.
Man, I finished the insane game mode and all you can give me is a crappy little normal plus 6 dexterity spell? Another potion would've been more useful...
It's ok monty, I don't have a girlfriend either. We can totally go on a bro date or something. Not, like, a gay one or anything, but ya know, just chill and stuff...
Wow. Like I always said, the moment gamestop got their greedy hands on kongregate the site began its inevitable downward spiral. There's no way this will turn out well. As with all pitiful, greedy slime they're going to slowly become more and more aggressive in whoring off anything they can until the final people have had enough and left, and then they'll take their money and move on to bleeding the next target dry. Taking the badge of the day and turning it into a week long advertisement is just a sign that we're traveling further down that path. I hate it so much. I hate greediness, I hate corporate advertisement and all that sort of hokey bullshit, I loath it with ever fiber of my being...but I also like games damn it. Thank god I don't really play console games anymore, cause gamestop was by far the closest store and I could never, ever bring myself to support their business after watching what they've done here...
