Here's the promised comprehensive review...
IndestructoTank AE pretty much has it all up on Indestruct2Tank: Better graphics, better music production (the music itself is the same, but in many ways, it sounds better on this game), better physics (or at least just as good), boom bar (lacking in classic mode on 2), quicker score tallying when you complete a combo, and the ability to get your tank part way off the screen, rather than having it stop before the edge of the screen as in 2 (I called that "glass edges" in my comments on 2). I like the math used to calculate score in 2, and the availability of different tanks. Also, story mode is fun, and would be a nice addition to this game. Co-op mode was a fantastic challenge to play alone, and I'm sure it would be a lot of fun with two players. I like that in AE, the bombers drop their bombs fast enough that you can hit them, unlike in 2.
To be cont'd...

Yep, I was right. After buying all of my Homers and Miners, I lasted about eight seconds, which was about five seconds longer than I thought I would.

GOT IT! CO-OP MEDAL -- SINGLE HANDEDLY! The final hint: Max out your first three enemies: Bombers, Bouncers and Gunners, then stop buying enemies. Use your helicopter alone to shoot down as many enemies as possible in order to keep your tank on the ground while shooting down missiles. By level ten or so, just shooting down missiles will get you enough experience to progress in levels while racking up the cash to buy enemies later on. Then, when you have about 3500 or 4000 or so points in reserve, you can buy all of your Homers and Miners at once. That way, you never have them buzzing around, flipping your tank into the air and keeping it there.
I'm sure that when I go back to the game, now, I will die in seconds since the screen will be full of Miners and Homers. After that happens, I will post a more reasonable review of the game.

One more thing: shoot down enemies with your helicopter, especially in later levels (again, on one-person co-op mode). You don't gain experience, but again, it keeps your tank on the ground.

Oh, yeah, and another hint for one-person co-op mode: just buy your enemies in order. Don't get homers or miners early, because they get your tank in the air and keep it there. And its easier to avoid missiles if you're on the ground.

Okay, man obsessed time again. One more medal to get: Co-op. Except I don't have anyone to co-op with, so I'm doing it alone. Getting really close, now. Hints: keep your butt down. It stops being about combos and starts being about keeping your damned tank on the the damned ground and shooting down missiles with your helicopter. Also, playing cross-handed. I'm much better on the arrow keys with my left hand than I am on the mouse. And I'm on a laptop, so I have a pointing device in the middle, and arrow keys on the right. Suggestion: it would be nice if the user could define the controls.

I got a 99 combo..my highest ever lol! :D
A little tip..Don't get homers or gunners early on..Max out your Bouncers/Regular ones..and Miners first...it makes it easy to get a high combo becuz
A) You don't have stupid missiles aimed at you which could possibly make you go up to high and/or they just get annoying as they prevent you from hitting other copters. Of course the downfall to this is you don't get unlimited fuel...but you can get higher combos, if you want on highscores O_o

Fun game, but it gets hard, at least until you get the Solo Badge. Since it gives you infinite fuel. Very easy from that point on.

me,level 8 or something, 43rd combo, flying high... GAME OVER,NO FUEL... one hit on the ground would have saved me, but i was not allowed to... :( NOT FUNNY

why the hell would you blow up when you run out of fuel. especially in the air! wtf. why would u even use up fuel in the air.
how is this any different to previous ones?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
after you get infinite fuel, just leave the tank alone, and you will eventually get all the badges...
My alt high was 102 and my combo high was 246(from actually playing)
