[Basic_X]

a retry was all me needed! 65! whohoo

 

[Basic_X]

another retry and i ended on 73

 

[Blackjack]

Can't seem to get to 79.
78 every time. Even with different strategies

 

[Congax]

66 now, I'm getting the hang of it

this is fcking addictive

 

[Sparx]

yeah i cant get passed 78 either

 

[Basic_X]

this is fcking addictive

yea, havnt been doing annything else at work for the last 2 hours

 

[Blackjack]

Says the last ubar tower does 90000+ damage. But i don't see a way of ever getting 15000 to upgrade a third time without loosing first.

what bug?

 

[Thadius]

the mods for warcraft 3 are much better!

 

[old.Tohtori]

what bug?

Sometimes, not all the time, the towers just disappear.

More often when you build a lot side by side, but the ultimate tower was in an isolated location and poof!

 

[Pirkel]

There's something really obvious when you've worked it out that helps..
I'll post the hint tommorow if no-one else has figured it out by then.

Go on then!

is thre any reason not to only use Ice Towers?

 

[Killswitch]

Ice Towers have the longest range, but the last upgrade to them (the 2nd 1000pt one) only adds a little bit to their damage. The green towers have less range, but hit about 30% harder at the top level (but are kinda shitty before that). The fire ones are cheap to start up and to upgrade to a point, but they're crap and expensive at high levels.

I have no idea what the best thing to do it...if you can save up 23000 points you can get a cannon jobbie that does like hundreds of thousands of damage per shot...I bet that's the secret of the developer getting 90...but how the hell do you do it?!?!

built as few towers as possible. get a cannon fast maybe ;o

Tried that, basicly. the cannon is useless even when upgraded the first time.
The cannon "balls" are slow and the range very short. And the extra 6 k damage doesn't make up for that.
And doesn't provide enough "dps" to keep you from getting invaded

yeah, its cheper and better to buy the pooping tower, coz of the range - usually 2x ice on left mid side and poopers around the middle so they can hit most of the time. had a cannon but it sucked on the first line. gonna try 2 ice and poopers only this time

 

[Golena]

Go on then!

Think most people have worked it out already looking at the tower placements, but there's much more to placing your towers than where they can just hit stuff. The towers take time to turn towards their target so a tower shooting down a straight section of track is much more effective than one straffing at the blobs.

Here's the way to get 81 anyway.. anyone managed to get 82+ yet?

 

[Barevos]

77 :< with a mix of ice turrets on the long straights (4 pointing down diferent angles of each straight) and green turrets on the short straights....even drew out a table of the cost and dmg / range of each turret lol.

also if you place them in the middle they can hit from start to the end instead of bulding lots of towers at the start an end..

 

[Lethul]

fun game, but whats the point of the fire/flower towers?

 

[rure]

Seems insanely hard to get the 15k upgrade on a flower tower. But thats prolly how you get through 80.

Now all you need to do is work out how much money you get at each wave.

Pretty clear from this that nothing beats a living tower, though it doesn't scale fast enough at the very early waves, at those early levels, ice is most effective. Can also see there isn't much advantage to the top ice upgrade.

Storms : 40gp

I'm wrong about the scaling, it will scale fast enough, given the tip about fastest shooting down the straights.
