The survival mode is waaaaay too random...Whenever I feel like I'm doing some progress, I get a killer wave....When I had a near perfect run I got 2 4 tank waves and 2 double turret waves which killed me at wave 17 :(

lags continually, controls are sometimes unresponsive. other than that, a reasonable game. but survival really, really needs to have less enemies at the higher waves, or enemies with less hp

Mission mode was too easy and Survival mode was too hard. In survival, there are just loads random enemies to kill. Then you pick up a flamethrower. Then a tank spawns. Then you realise that your flamer is not going to reach the tank with you at a safe distance. Then you die.
:D

im at 17 waves now, and it k=just depends on if you get the rockets or not, without it you might as well give up at 10 coz you cant kill them fast enough

It almost feels like the last 5 of the survival of 15 is completely random. The one pack of 4 huge tanks with the turrets lining the walls all the way around.. You get that one and you might as well count it as an automatic loss.

FINALLY got all the badges after many attempts at survival mode. Homing missles are best until the hardest waves and then rockets are king.
I will NEVER be visiting this game again and I now know what will happen to me if I go to hell, I will be forced to play survival mode over and over.
May God have mercy on this game's soul.

And, for the record, flamethrower is absolutely useless against tanks and, in survival mode, groups of turrets. To be honest, the green weapon seems to be the best one to use.

The survival mode is utter crap. The guy has just thrown loads of random turrets tanks and soldiers, and it is very unbalanced. I mean when it gets to wave 10, I have around 140 health. By the time I've finished with the 4 tanks and all turrets level, I'd be lucky to have around 20 health, whereas on the other levels I can usually manage with getting hit only once or twice. Its such a shame, because this is a really decent game, it just needed a bit more thought and quality, 3/5.

Am I the only one who finds it impossible to move around and fire rockets where I want them to go? I guess I can't perform the three tasks of moving, aiming and firing all at once, so I'll just not use the rockets.

Not bad. Though trying to get gold stars for everything sucks. I suppose you've to replay once at least. Once for gold kills (and damage while you're at it), another for speed run.

Only problem is the levels - they get repetitive, and lacks the feeling of difficulty when you've learned how to evade easily and found the best combination of weapons. 3/5

screw this stupid survival mode.
Just clump a whole lot of noobish turrets and enemy's in a few waves and hopla you have a survival mode.
They should cut down on the amount of enemy's.........
pure shit.

Big glitch in the game. I died at the boss (lvl 5), and started the level again. The game's now scrolling through all the lvl's! And I'm missing my medals, and have to start over the whole game. Good game though. 5/5.

davetz: Actually i think, that it is easier eith slow computer than fast. Because your reaction time increases lot. :p

Twenty-four Karats of Fury Badge (impossible – 60 points)
Unlock the golden commando, then use it to survive for 20 waves in survival mode in Mechanical Commando
You acquired this badge on Dec. 21, 2008.
... I used homing missiles in survival.

DESPERATELY needs a restart button. -.- I hate waiting for those little buggers to wait to kill me when I don't get a rocket launcher.

Tips and info:
|Golden Commando gives +50 armor|
|Use Rockets not homing. Rockets damage 4 times more then homing|
|In the double cannon turret survival wave kill the upper and the down lanes of turrets then you can easily go up and down to evade bullets.|
|In the hardest wave with 4 tanks and turrets stay in middle for a few seconds (like 5 seconds) and shoot some of the turrets to clear a way. Go where there is least turrets and go to walls around while shooting those in front of you. Then when you shot all the turrets just kill the tanks|
|When theres a single unit left get ready to fire a mortar and rocket towards the one of the cornors. That way you can kill turrets and infantery before they shoot so it will be a little easier|
I hope it helps you guys. And please stop saying a game is bad because it's hard. If it was too easy then the pro-players would be bored.

Yes i did 24 waves! When you learn how to evade in the different levels it gets much easier. Really Cool game. And don't ever press "Page up" in this game it can make it crash! Instead try press "Home" then everything gets faster.

survival mode is just total luck on what spawns. if you get far then you got easy spawn lvls (ie. no 4 tanks+turrets). which is why golden commando doesn't help much.
