upgrades are WAY too expensive (for a $250 gun tower, it costs $750 to increase fire rate by 8%? i can increase it by 300% by just building 3 more towers for that much! and god knows there's enough space for it)
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
towers cost too much, and the enemies are way too slow. along with the fire rate os the "machine gun" it shoots like a pistol.

Just because this isn't new it doesn't get played, but td's used to be hot. If you came out with a nice part 2, you'd do well on here

WAVE 50 Hardcore III can be beaten with 6 Towers and none doing damage of over 6500 by the end of the wave. You start Wave 50 setup with 0 Fire Towers, 1 Frost Tower and 1 Shock Tower (both maxed). Add 4 brand new(0 experience) Fire Towers and max each to cover the whole track. Max 3 towers to a reload speed of 8 with the fourth as high as you can(depending on money) and put it slightly down the track from the other three. This takes a little time once you start and I wish I had timed it. Not one of the enemy made it off the playing area. I wonder if this would work with poison(??).

SOLUTION!
Build 3 machinegun towers as soon as you accumulate cash for it. Until wave 9 you upgrade, in this order 1. cash collecting (5) 2. Dmg upgrade (5) 3. Fire Upgrade (5) Hopefully you should manage to lvl 9 without any lives lost. Dont upgrade ANY towers until after wave 9. As soon as you get cash after doing the above, you should be able to buy a flame tower. Keep upgrading the reload of the flame tower 3 or 4 times. Then buy a gold tower and upgrade until you must pay 760-780 cash for an upgrade, THEN you buy a new gold tower and repeate the upgrade. This should accumulate enough cash to buy a new flame tower. But buy two shock towers and a psn and freeze tower first. Try to keep the gold towers separated from the firepower, so that you can get as much gold as possible. GL :)

POISON, POISON ====>> Does it even work ?? Playing Hardcore 3 I had it setup for Wave 42 and never saw any poison damage register on any member of the group. The amount of poison damage is not high but it is an accumulating type damage like fire. There is no resistance to poison for Wave 42 and yet nothing ever showed. A bug ?? Do you need more than one poison tower to do damage no matter how fast the tower is rotating? I had upped the rate of fire/distance on all other towers and added a second boosted Sniper tower. ….
I dislike having all 10 Fire Immune targets just waltz on by at a speed of 0.04 and take minimal damage from heavy shock, frost and sniper fire. I ended up getting the last one of the 10 just as it exited the field. The other 9 had about half of their life left as they exited. Aargh ;( !!! ….
I have only had problems with Wave 42 in Hardcore 3. Something good did come out of that frustration; I set a new personal high score of 637,346 for Hardcore 3.

excellent game; have played normal getting my highest score of 500,259; played hardcore 1 and scored 403,158; played hardcore 2 and scored 462,590. Fun 5/5 game but not scoring anywhere near the top scores ... Highly recommended ... NEEDS A SAVE GAME so you can come back and continue after someone else finishes needing the computer .... still a couple of bugs in game that need fixing.

a lil guide to scoring big: 1) get sniper tower, DON'T upgrade it. 2) Get fire tower ASAP (the one that's 1500 gold), place so that it will start firing at halfway. 3) First upgrade cash from monsters, then fire, then gold. 4) Get frost tower, slowly upgrade its range (range only). 5) At wave 11, save for gold and place it at the beginning of the wave you have got enough cash for it. 6) Upgrade range of gold tower just enough to reach the whole of the path prior to fire tower's starting point. 7) Max its firerate, but do upgrades only after the wave is beaten. Whenever you get another $2500, buy another gold, upgrading its range first. 8) Stop getting more goldens after wave 28-30 (this depends) and get another fire tower somewhere close to the first one, but it must fire only after the first. 9) Get gold.

For those struggling where to put the Upgrade Skill points: 5 to Cash Collect first; next 5 to Skill (the XP per enemy one, not the icon that says XP). Continue putting 5 into one skill at a time. (You get faster cash bonuses from the 5th skill point that way) I usually save Poison for wave 46-50. - - - The video link that JohnnyHaywire posted gives a good idea of how & when to place towers; altho somewhere after level 25 you will want to try and squeak up to $4000 gold and place a Golden tower - the extra cash allows you to upgrade your towers quicker. It helps if you get a few Achievement bonuses during a wave - a great time to plop down a gold tower

In case anyone is struggling with this TD, here's a quick link to get you started http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcLb8k0E8zg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NVt5aMD13cs
Please understand, this isn't the *best* way to do this TD, but I did try this same setup on Hardcore Mode. Fire towers are by far the easiest key to winning in hardcore mode. If you want to rack up the points, however, be sure NOT to kill the creeps quickly, but instead to allow your gold towers to leech as much gold (they gain gold *per hit*) as possible. Anyway, this is just something to help you get started. Many have done, and will do, better than my demo. Just trying to help anyone who might be a bit stuck. =)

Very fun tower defense game 5/5. You should try to gain as many acheviments as you can fast! I hung through all the levels but had 1 life left and on the last boss level 1 low health guy got through and I lost:( Some other tips.1. Make sure that if your goign to use shock towers to slow down and damage your enemy they need to cover the whole track!Otherwise when monsters get out of there range they will resume there regular pace. 2. Remember to always upgrade as soon as possiable-it might be the only reason you survive. 3. Its a good idea to upgrade any towers with slowing abilities to a faster reload and make a group of turrets next to them so enemys are continuaally slowed and getting mased damage.
I personally started with 2 machine guns and then got a couple of each weapon as I could get higher level ones (I never ever bought a sniper or regular gun turret (except to sell them which is actually a waste) adn still got to the final level.

4 shock 4 sniper (so upgraded that they can shoot all over the screen)
then make the flame throwers. i made it so the boss couldn't get through.
highscore of 499,958

you plain cannot get all of the achievements on one map. There are not enough monsters to fulfill all the "Score 250 kills with XXX tower" within all 50 waves. But yes, there should be some badges, at least if Yuri86 would implement Kongregate API.

I like it. Gets kinda boring after a while tho, since you can practically win every map with just the sniper tower and the shock tower alone. With badges it would however become another story. "impssible badge - get all the achievements on one map". Without badges this game is just another TD imo.

lvl 50 is like easy as, they didnt even get past the second bend and they had 300k+ burn/second
use fire towers and shock towers with 2 frost towers and you should beat them easily... btw whats the highest lvl towers can go since i had my fire tower lvl 15 at 8 haste??
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
this game did not suck so much before the updates.I liked the fact that you could win with only 1 tower! I am rating it down to 1/5
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
The flame towers are awesome for killing the last boss wave. I had up to 200k/s DoT on one of them with only 2 towers!!
Totaly like the Game 5/5

Yuri86, you know, you shouldn't call a primary nerf "minor updates". Not only you nerf frost by speed, it's also nerfed by damage/level, was 1.5, now 1.25! Well, now you need one more tower indeed to pass the game :) However, I really like that you have fixed targetting :)
