Commander, thanks for rescuing me, I know I should join your team and help you free our troops, but I prefer to walk alone. I've noticed that all my friends that join your team end up dead, while the others walk away safely in a storm of bullets. I appreciate your efforts, but go get killed alone. Yours faithfully, Rifleman Jones.

Enemy snipers and buildings are a great way to "thin the herd", if you're at max and have a teammate or two you want to replace.

Maybe make lesser challenge or easier challenge since when you complete 36 you'll get all perks, and by that time you will have every upgrade so money left cannot be use...

This is basically the same game as the first with a different boss at the end. The ONLY reason to play this is for the Kong achievements. The same bugs in the first game are present in this game. The developer also completely ignored all of the really good ideas from the Kong community on the first game for this version. For ignoring us, this game gets two stars from me - hopefully that helps to send the message loud and clear to not ignore the Kong community for future versions.

"Dear First and Second Riflemen. It would be appreciated if you stop firing your guns right next to my ears. Thank You. - Your Leader"

Never have I ever killed soldiers to replace them with Rocketeers and try to put myself to sleep at night saying, "It's just for efficiency."

Oddish got it exactly right, this is Version 1.5. Nothing has changed except a few new troops, a feature or two and some polish.

Nice Ideas, but not really thought to the end: 1. Please give the option to select more the troops, since Riflemen and Grenadiers are almost useless. 2. Please give the option to change formation, e.g. Riflemen and Flamers with improved armor in the front, Marksmen and Roketeers in the back; 3. Please de-synchronize the snipers - After a time without enemies the snipers tend to shoot all at the same time at the same enemy, ignoring the others and waste bullets and firepower. 4. Please give the option to downgrade grenadiers, to be able to try around with the "Explosive splinter" Perk.

Commander 1 was a 4/5. Commander 2 is a 3/5 for not thinking about what was wrong with Commander 1 and making the exact same mistakes again.

Fun game like the first one but as others have said, it's basically the first one again. The missions by pack of 3 should rather be more skill-based (no damage to leader for 1000m...) and all at the same time (what use are they when I've got all badges and only finished 30 of them?). Tightening the group in formation / getting rid of lesser fighters (riflemen and flammers) / setting instructions (marksmen on individuals, rockets on buildings / vehicles) would bring more depth.

Would have been nice to get "run 500 meters with no allies" earlier when i didn't have to try and get the ones i've bought KILLED so i can complete it.

Devs are better off saying nothing rather than mocking the ancient invention of Communication, a sequel presents you opportunity and instead you force crap troops on us even harder. Might've gotten a mediocre's 3/5, drops to 2.

The difficulty of missions seems absurdly random. Some you can finish in the first 100m using skill, others you have to get lucky. For example killing 5 people with barrels took me 7 runs, getting 500m on average. Stabbing 25 People? Took me 135 meters in one run. Got both at the same time.

cool game id'e give it a 5/5 out of five
2 lil bug fixes though
1. the perk that makes your general heal your squad-mates actually spawns a health kit but if the player is running too fast the box has to catch up delaying this "healing" effect.
2. may just be my OCD but bullets fired by turrets spawn in an upward facing position before being sent their trajectory data and spun towards the way they are flying. not a bid deal but maybe you could make the bullets 1 draw frame invisible so i wouldn't see that.
great game hoping for another sequel!

Fantastic! Pure Carnage! What's not to like... Napalm, Flamethrowers, Heavy Mini-Guns, Homing Missles, Grenade that shoot out splinters... Splinters? What am I tossing? A wooden grenade?

Military Flamethrowers don't work that way. They shoot a narrow stream of incandescent gas. It's like a big male genital that pisses lava. What you got in this game is a Stunt Flamethrower. Deadly, yes, but highly inefficient, used only for Hollywood movies. Thank God there's no friendly fire....

I find it pretty irritating when I get to 1900 on Endless Mode, call in an airstrike, have everything look to be destroyed, and have it turn out that "Oh, the bomb that landed directly on that barracks you just ran into and died was actually filled with confetti, try again next time."

this could and should be two-player just amke it so 2nsd player uses the wasd/arrow keys to move and uses q and e to cycle through the troops you found (2nd player can only play if you have at least one troop) because that would both be really fun and also helpful on missions like kill 10 guys with grenadier

Was anyone else hoping the minigun upgrade would just make your shotgun into a shotugn/minigun combo? Fun game in the end, but fixes could make it better.

Just ran 3673m in endless mode. Perks: M.R.E. Pack + Armor (helps not to think about red bullets in real trouble), Salvation + Energy Shield (just in case); Air Support as Skill; rocketeers and marksmans as troops. Hope this help someone.

Too soon and with far too few improvements over the predecessor. I mean, it's still a bit fun, but all sorts of bits that still need fixing. Huddle squad command, difficulty curve, mission order(running 1k with no perks is available way before running 1k), mission overlap(see previous), incentive to complete missions after unlocking everything/beating the game. The primary improvement between the two is that the early units get upgraded and customizability of relics. Nice, but not enough to warrant a sequel. 3/5

The same flaws that marred the original game can be found here as well; Everything maxed, and all badges earned and only 32/48 missions. There are also 3 locked perks with no information how to unlock them. Still no way to alter the triangle formation of your squad in the game so pushing through a bullet hell will always cost you dearly. After playing for a while, lag will become a major issue. Still a 4/5 because of its solid concept and gameplay.

Fun game, but it suffers from some of the same problems its prequel had. SFX glitches, beating the game and getting very far on endless mode while 10-20 missions were still left to be done, being unable to dismiss a team member (from pause menu, for example), being unable to remove, say, a rifleman from my initial party after upgrade purchased and so on. Still, kept me entertained for 2-3 hours. =)

Lagging terribly even on low quality whenever flamethrowers are going. The boss's second form is unplayable on my computer right now.

Well, it only makes sense that your teammates other than sniper can only shoot forward. While your enemys can shoot in any direction.
