Reviews for "Drone Wars"

Sucked, but probably wouldn't without this glitch:

This game looked like it was going to be good. But, A FREAKIN' GLITCH COULDN'T LET ME PLAY IT!!!!!! I'm sorry for yelling. Whenever I clicked on the mothership, it would show the building stuff for probably 1 frame or so, and instantly deselect it, detaining me from playing this game. Please please fix this. I gave it an 8 cuz if it made the front page, it'd be good, but not 10 since I can't play it.

very well made.

well yea, the gameplay is pretty good, and with the patches its definetly gotten better. Hopeing to see this game improved upon, something like higher tech levels, new units, and aswell as a skirmish mode. As for survival if anyones having trouble, try pressing s right when your unit is about to attack and fly past your target, works very well on the silo's as thats about the only things later in the rounds. Oh and silo's work as pretty decent shields if you improve thier thrusters, nothing so far has been able to 1 hit kill one.
Nightwave, i haven't experienced this bug so far after todays update, but it was something alot of people were complaining about, so im sure it will get fixed.
Would love to see this game updated with more variety, but it's fun and very playable as it is right now.

Very fun.

Just found a bug that probably will not affect most players.

When you make 9 controllers you cap at **/99 control (aka unit used/cap) which is fine. When you make more than 9 controllers say 15 controllers, you stay at **/99 (also fine, that's what a cap is for). When one of those controllers dies your cap drops down as if you had only 8 controllers left. So even though you still have 14 controllers you are down to **/90 or **/89 (I don't remember now) control so you can't build extra "just in case one dies".
I also noticed after a while in survival the first part of the control number (the used control value) stopped accurately reflecting my units. My control used was much higher than it should have been.

Good Game, could be improved though depth of play.

I liked the way most of this game was set up, The arcade play was pretty good survival is fine, but you always die at the end which is kind of a downer, just the nature of the beast.

It was disappointing that build times corresponded directly to cost, so you could never have a use for more than a specific rate of resource collection. If there were some way to have additional queues that can be upgraded to, or some that would shorten the build time, or even just some really expensive unit that builds comparatively fast so that you don't end the game with 8 queues and 1,000 mineral.

The Units also could have been more unique, there were no apparent advantages or disadvantages to any specific unit, they were all pretty much the same except bigger. If some units had really good range, or otherse were really quick, the game might be a bit more interesting as players would be force to come up with creative methods for deploying their troops. As it was, you basically sat back on the defensive until you had a force of overwhelming size which would happen after the first computer attack, and then you would go ape scad on them.

Multiplayer would be interesting, but I'm pretty sure the game would get broken pretty fast in the state that it's in. The units simply aren't dynamic enough to present serious cerebral engagement, but that isn't hard to fix, a few attack bonuses for certain unit types, some changes in speed and range between class and you might have a very interesting game.

everything ruler except survival mode

100 a round is not enough you sould allow mining with 4 mines avalible cuse i can pump out those miners and get way more ore than that in 3 minutes and it is more desirable to have tons of units to micro manage than less, also bigger waves of enemys can come at you .

i would also reqomend making a maul option as well if you have every played warcraft 3 in the other types of games mauls were the best

great game awesome job keep up the great work you rule!
