"The best FA"

date: November 24, 2006

Nice one , Really impress on how you do your games =)

Already at Wave 16 ( Start of Protos Mobs) But really a pain in the ass.

For those people having a hard time fighting the Battlecruiser. Use Elysium Tear (Acquired level 5 over mind) Also infested Terrans help a lot especially if you have atleast 3-4 of them ( Only had 1 )

"narf"

In order to lvl up quick, fill the place up with Sunken Colonies and kill ONLY Marines. Goliaths(spell?) and Marines give you the same amount of EXP, but it takes more hits to kill Goliaths(again, spell?)

"One challenging game tribute for Starcraft fans!"

date: November 23, 2006

Awesome gameplay and very challenging to boot. I've played all of the previous SC: FA games and enjoyed them as an appreciating Starcraft player myself. This one turned back to the "Defend-your-base"-type formula, which is a personal favorite genre of mine. ;)

So far, I haven't beaten it, yet, as I'm stuck on Wave 15, which is one helluva struggle with that damn Battlecruiser disintegrating my entire defense. Is there a particular method of handling BCs? Because I have used the Defiler's beam attack in a direct hit, used Discharge Overmind power and even sent a wave of Infested Terrans in it's path , yet, it still got me. ;( I've attempted different strategies already, but none have worked yet. Am I perhaps, supposed to be at level 5 (I'm level 4) at this point?

Well, even though it seems impossible to overcome Wave 15, it doesn't deter from my impression on the game overall, but that's my only gripe on the game. Otherwise, the game is teh sweetness to the Max! XD

5/5

"Ehhhh..."

date: November 23, 2006

Once again,hate to leave bad reviews but... im going to have to.First of all your mp or whatever doesnt nearly recharge fast enough.You couldnt possible kill all the units mp alone.In chain to that, nearly IMMPOSIBLE,no, IMMPOSIBLE to get to level 2 in overmind fast enough to kill the goliaths,they delt too much dmg and had too much health,and you had 5 to deal with with 2 (if your lucky 3) defense towers.It was a good concept and i liked one of your others.(FA4 blows)Also if you dont mind make some macros,too hard to keep up with all the different tabs. Try again,better luck next time pal.

"Sweet game!!!The best Starcraft FA i've played!!!!"

date: November 23, 2006

this is gota be one of the best starcraft FA that i've played...
i do agree with past reviews that the mouse was kinda laggy..that couldn't be helped(i still got to lvl 15,the one with b-cruiser)...for those who need pointers,heres a few tip:

1)if ure so desperate on lvlin,don't even dream of takin out goliaths with yr smite,it takes about 3 hits to take em out.instead,use that 3 hits on marines(dey oni gt 1 friggin hp lol!).aim the marines if u need fast exp

2)for starters,do not try to use all spores,if they get up close n personal when ure just so dam low on energy,ure screwed.instead,go for sunken colony first on all 4 spots...it should help u get thru the first few waves (try nt to let them get destroyed,u prolly gota need another 2 of them at least.)once u gt e cash n lvl to buy spores,build 2 on both ends of the spots(top most n bottom most),while keepin 2 sunk colony to fend of any close att.again,once u got e cash,swap the 2nd from bottom sunk colony for a defiller,and it will help u get along pretty much(i'm still stuck at lvl 15,so still tryin out a few tactics)

3)sink all yr points to energy.let the colonys do the dmg dealin

4)once u get to lvl 3 overmind,the skill is dam useful to take all marines at one go,simply click n drag all over...dam fast exp

5)always decide which to get first,that pesky goliath or that dam railgun terran.usually i get the one furthest from my base,coz the spores or defillers always do their job best.

6)queen's nest = ROCKS!!!! this is a building that u need to get ASAP.
it turns their marines against them!!!!(wad is more sweeter than watchin their own kinds slaugthering each other....)

that prolly all e basics i covered,another job well done on e flash....

*hint:for those of u gettin stuck with the nuke,try to follow this:
use yr powers to hit ONLY MARINES,nth else(usin it on goliaths only wastes it,and if u deal less that 50% of the total hp,u wun get the exp.)once u get true sight,try to find them on the spots they showed...*hint hint,if i were a marine with a nuke,i'd usually walk behind my enemies and backstab them,especially when i'm invisble xD)

heres another hint,or perhaps a secret maybe:
at the bottom right of the screen at the secret's page,keep clickin on it.it will bring up a numpad to press on(i couldn't figure out the combination xD..oh well,better keep tryin)

once again,congratz!!!

"Loved it"

date: November 23, 2006

I havnt been able to listen to see if sounds, because Im in a public place and dont wish to be rude.

This is the best game you have made about SCFA, I really hated SCFA4 though, because it was very limited and repeditive. Im currently on wave 12, with 2 sunkens, a defiler, lv 4 ovimind, 3 skills in recharge energy, queens nest (which I havnt used yet, and EXTREMELY regret getting, becuase i messed up and have no money to get a spore to attack wraiths.)
I dont have any money, so i cant get a spore, and my only defense against the 20 sumthing wriahts is abilities and defiler(which im not sure if i can micro, because sometimes it shoots when wriaht is cloaked) I just read your reply saying to use true sight to see wriaths, so that REALLY helped, and I thank you for that! Only an 8 on graphics, because you just cut them out of a picture/screen shot. Although you changed some things and made the death of things different. I love how the defiler is pretty much useless except for very specific repititive non random parts of waves.
So keep up the good work, Also, I have yet to unlock a secret in any of your games, and will probably cry when i beat this oen (ive beaten all others except 4, which i dont know if u can beat)

Thank you for your persistance in making this and etc.

Btw, it would be nice if you had 2 modes open, and then have another seperate 2 unlockable, because the campaign thing is getting kinda annoying because ive been stuck wave 12 (which I now know how to help beat) for a while. oh well thanks!
