was there a way to tell the resistances?

and do you guys have towers randomly disappearing? a couple times i've lost one that has been upgraded a lot and that's killed me.

Can't get past wave 73. Going with a full earth build seems to do very well up until that point.

there are no resistances.... their health just increases exponentially and you really start to notice it around level 60 because youre only getting 1 extra gold per kill per level and that just gets left in the dust

81... 78 was my best before i tried this gimmick:

[hide]Image
this buggy ass game makes towers shoot insanely fast horizontally and vertically. the speed slows down more and more as the angle increases. So if you line up towers with the alleys they become machineguns and have more output even though you waste some of their range. Probably could have squeezed out a few more levels if my build order had been different but level 90 just seems like a pile of bullshit to me.[/hide]

this games bugged as shit

i hope he makes another version though

Hacked Version

Oddly enough, it still gets hard as hell due to the compounding hp increase.

The nature tower tops out at about 9k, yes? The ultimate tower STARTS at 9k, and you can upgrade from there.

And they do start getting various resists. I've watched some get weeded out by the fire and cold towers and then totally ignore the damage from my nature towers which were my second line of defense.

They are.

I've actually been playing the shit out of this, trying different things. I seem to be most sucessful when I mix up the elements.

Has anyone gotten the storm tower to actually do anything?

the ultimate tower does 9090 or something for 2k gold, but it attacks slowly and the range is retarded

nature is the best tower hands down, frost in a fairly close 2nd



as far as resistances.. i made 81 using nothing but Nature towers and about 70ish on nothing but Frost towers.. there is no resistances. There was never any resistances in the actual tower defense games either so i dont know why he'd put them in

83 with a mix of nature and ice mostly. And yes there are resistances in the game this is based on. Its from the map, Elemental TD, in WC3. All of the elements have 1 other element they counter (double dmg) and one that resists them (half dmg). I highly suggest trying the real map if you have WC3, its a lot of fun.
