Things that make me rage.

[DraGula1234]

Welcome.

I have few things to say. ^^

1.Why checkpoints dont work after i run game another time? (level starts from beggining)
Because after my game crashed on the end of chapter i thought it would load game from last checkpoint, but...It loaded from the damn beggining...

Second thing:
After an archer (for example) hits you you fall on the ground.Yea, nice, but when a LOT of enemies attack you you CANT stand up because you are always attacked! even when you have that damn shield on you still falling on the ground!
Make it like hmmm 40% chance to make my mage fall on the ground, because it's making game hard to play...
I as a customer want to enjoy the game, but its making it not enjoyable...

I really love that game for its spells combinations, but these thins really make it hard to play...

(Enjoy my hard to understand rage message)


Greets, DraGula.

[Dreamercz]

Those are actually good points. +1

[Megika]

For number two, it's because you have the personal shield on (shield + middleclick). When you take damage you fall over, to discourage overuse - it's very helpful against enemies with single, strong attacks (or as an emergency use) but not good to keep active all the time.

[Paradox__rep]

Thanks for your points. I'll pass them along to the devs.

[Teln3t]

I actually strongly agree with the archer thing. There are spots where I get stuck when ambushed by tons of monsters. Having to get back up, then immediately getting hit back down by an archer arrow just kills the fun...

[Corvin86]

And not only the archers. When there are many monsters hiting me i can't do anything... I hoped that would be a nice game that i can enjoy... but no, this is a worst game i played for a long time... it's almost unplayable bacause of monsters hits...

[FuzzyWuzzy]

Also, when you bounce far away that the camera does not show where you are.. very annoying :P

[real4xor]

I`d have to agree with the archer thing... :confused: Why does puny arrow make me fall?

Getting mobbed is also annoying, but sometimes a non-elemental force blast can move them out of the way, and throwing a shield up after that to keep them back. Not a personal shield, but the actual force field.


edit: :/ personal shield works both ways... instead of bouncing off the attacks, it bounces around my magician. This is because my magician is only a lightweight puny little man. (although he`s still bigger than an arrow... :/)

So I guess I`ll have to spam more forcefields than personal shields to stay alive. Or else I`ll be likely to bounce somewhere I don`t like.

[Freeway88]

I've found that throwing a shield on or healing while knocked down works wonders for not getting turned into paste when I get mobbed. I usually luck out and get knocked out of the mob of enemies in a minute or two.

[BoomWav]

Goblin archers are definitely hard! One way I found to get rid of them quick was to cast Haste on me and get close. Then, Arcane x4 + Lightning + Shift + Right-click. ZAP. You can also force push the arrow away.. just like the bomb.. it's not easy though.

Anyone has another trick against them?

[DraGula1234]

GOD DAMNIT!! fix the god damn game!! it makes me rage!!!
I cant defeat KHAN because he just run at me, picks me up slash threws me down, then again picks me up slashes, throws, picks, slashes, and im dead...and i cant even shoot a spell on him..WHAT THE FROG?! This game is a sanity test! and i will not pass it...

And another thing - that big troll with this "Bazooka" when he shot me i flew away like 500 meters...and when i stand up here comes another rocket and again makes my fly 500 meters further...Fix the game please...

After first death I used deathray and he was down on one ray (Q+F+A+S).

Man, i cant even move a bit, he just charges at me and kills me in a 5 secounds...and i dont want to leave the game because i will have to do this level again...Im trying to kill him like for 30 minutes now...

[bon3sko]

shield up, or arcane + mid button. I somehow rescued from his charge first time or use shield and load QR QR QR QR S (for arcane ice and charge it full), when he break the shield, you can just release RMB and he should have down more than 1/2 hp and repeat it. There are many ways how to defeat him.

[DraGula1234]

I defeated him by spamming Q F A S + shift + rmb so when he puts me down i just aoe his butt...

Earlier, he charged me and i flew OUT of the map!

[Paradox__rep]

I'm not saying that we're not going to balance the game...but the hard parts of the game usually just require you to try a different tactic.

The game can definitely be completed solo - it's just a hard game at times - just like the stone troll.

/s

[DraGula1234]

Yup, it's hard sometimes.Just need some tactics.

[SojaBird]

Oke this also makes me quite upset :p
Can't continue from the checkpoint (the stone thing) after restarting the game.
I was like... oke it's not that much of a problem, I'll just dash through the thing, use BANANAZ! and get out of that castle...
Though after that the game just dumps itself down in my taskbar and closes with no errors or what so ever :(

What's up with that? :(

[roumor]

At first being knocked down all the time is irritating,
but then when you learn how to counter it's alright.
I actually love the game putting some challenge.

[gameyoda]

I`d have to agree with the archer thing... :confused: Why does puny arrow make me fall?

Why can a small bullet hurt so much?

On topic: I also find it quite annoying to be knocked down 24/7 in some situations, it kinda makes you think that the teleport staff is the best staff in the game (even though its completely random and killed me a few times).

I used another way:

Arcane + shield (bombs that triggers when walked over) and then the shield itself just behind it.

This stopped him from running into me + it did nice damage + I got time to set up the next bombs+shield.

Hope it helped.


About the archer thing, then I haven't had much issues with this (and I use shift+shield all the time) - However you can still use spells if you time it right when you lie down.
Arcane + rock (and eventual fill it with rocks if you can) and you will AOE stun in a large area. That is how I got the M60 :D

And for the makers of the game: Good one! +rep! I like the game, recommended it to my friends and will definitely go through it a few times and then go through it online as well! (Whenever the multiplayer seems a bit more stabilized).

However may I recommend that you unlock "Versus mode" earlier on? Otherwise you might see alot of people fall off because they can't complete the game story.

Greets, DraGula.

1 this point is actually shown in a popup in the first level, when you die you spawn at a stone, when you leave you have to restart the level

2 The game can be quite hard if you are not creative/do not like to experiment. However it is VERY easy to avoid getting knocked over. There are probably a thousand ways but i will give you 2:

SolutionA: Use Shift+E+RMB (seriously can it get more easy?), this will give you a 360 degree shield that deflects ALL damage and can be restored by pressing spacebar or using heal.

SolutionB: create a random defensive move that includes E (shields). e.g. e+D+middlemouse=make yourself a rock, e+d+RMB=surround yourself with rocks.

Please do not hate on the game... just give it some time...

ps hint for the devs, add an extra level between level 1 and 2 that is just as easy as level 1 (!).

Anyone has another trick against them?

1. Haste
Run in close, attempting to gather as many as possible.
2. StoneSkin - E D Mid-Mouse
Allows you time to make the spell, taking no damage.
3. ElectroRing - A A A A S Shift-R Mouse
Blows the area up (around 1250 damage each)

Rinse. Repeat.

I named StoneSkin and ElectroRing, to avoid confusion.

Solution for Getting-knocked-down-by-archers: Did noone read the post on the first page? Solution is: DON'T use the shield on yourself when archers approach. Without the shield you WON'T fall over.

I had the same problems, but now, it's not impossible anymore but only challenging. And its great! Because at first I thought: "What keeps me from spamming shields on myself? They could have apllied the shield defaultly" Glad I was wrong.

@Taking 30 minutes or more to defeat a boss: come on.... we're definitely spoiled by games which are WAY too easy. Remember the past where you just WEREN'T able to win a bossfight for WEEKS until you had a perfect run. And when you had to start over at the BEGINNING of the game because there were no saves at all.

[TopHatMan]

If you can cast healing spells on yourself while being bounced around, couldn't you use something healing+water+water on yourself to scatter them?
