challenge 4 is IMPOSSIBLE. If Sword dies, you have to wait until Shield dies! You can't put Shield in the middle, because then Sword can't attack either! The controls aren't that bad. The real problem is the AI . Even if you make a bot follow another bot, it keeps shooting at every enemy bot he sees.

it is a hard badge! its supposed to be hard! if you are giving this game a 1 or 2 because it is too hard then go listen to these tips: for challenge 6 just because the shield touches the dragon does not mean the dragon attacks it. PLace your shiled in front of the blaster while your sword does the work. Second place your sword at an angle because your sword might hit your shield and if all of this fails use the cheat. I gave it a 1 but just because the controls were horrid

just to let you know, you ppl complaining, " The AI is retarted ". Move them yourself, click and drag a bot to move them...

Challenge 4: Counter intuitive, requires outside knowledge, impossible. After Sword dies there's no way to quickly end the round, and Shield takes forever to die. Obviously this level was not play tested before release

"Oh-ho! I have you now, you nasty enemy bot that I am following! Oooh, shiny thing! I'll go over there and show you my butt, instead."
I want to like it, but the AI hates me.

cool game, controls are terrible, u dont get the feel for the robot, all u have to this upgrade and they do the work, pretty boring later on.

This is barely a game.
The thing that really makes or breaks a game is interactivity - you have to feel in control, at least of a part of the game. And here, you don't. The AI is so bad it hurts and there's no way to just manually control your robots. There are a billion bettermade games in this genre, just play one of them and skip this, badges be damned.

I've just got the distraction challenge left, but because my shield likes to wander aimlessly - instead of staying closer to the dragon (but within range) - it's pretty much down to luck.
*sigh* Apart from this, great game.

Gexlin you can control them if you wont look up instructions its not the games fault its your fault for being an idiot

It's a a fun game till you reach challenge mode...It's one thing to be challenging but challenge 4 is just uneccessarily irritating...It's one thing giving the order of one bot following the other but it's another them doing it right as the sheild bumps into the sword while the enemy effectively destroys you..

if it had better controls it would be funner,most of the time the bots are doing what every the hell they want,most of the time they just sit there and get shot at and die..so 3/5

Otherwise a quite nice game, the artificial intelligence is artificial stupid though, especially in the challenges. Challenge 4 was not THAT tough but 2, 5 and 6 make me really angry....

Challenge 4 is not impossible, they just made it so that if your shield moves slightly wrongly (99.99% of the cases), your sword is dead. So, really, no hard badge for me. I'm not even going to attempt to beat it. It will be about 10 times as frustrating as beating the impossible of Balloon Invasion (and that says something).

Two healers and one damage tank seems to be the easiest way to win at the moment. That might change with some of the latest levels, but it's worked for me so far.

@krad
if taken out of context, your comment would be outright batshit-crazy .. good job
well I've beaten career but I agree that the challenges are annoying as hell
