NOT BAD.....
but needs more improvements its a nice game though.....
Reviews for "Xeno Tactic 2"
Good graphics, okay game
First off, the graphics are outstanding. No problems there. My chief complaint is, high-end turrets are overpriced for their effectiveness. For less than the price of a level 1 plasma cannon, I can buy a level 10 vulcan turret, which is far more effective. You know, why have nothing while you wait for $250 to build up, when you could put down $20 for a vulcan turret and have it work for you while you build it up to level 10, whereupon it's STILL more effective than the $250 gun? The more expensive guns should offer a power premium for the short-term sacrifice required to get them.
shows promise...
...but i think it is really hard to make any real progress. i think u were being a bit harsh with the amount of money you make by killing bad guys. Even in the first level, getting the best turret was just a pipe dream.
Unfortunate
As many reviews have said the difficulty curve is not quite a curve as it is a small uphill road with a brick wall about 10 feet in. the air assaults need to be tweaked. either the air turrets cheaper, stronger, or the air troops come from one difinitive area not from ANYWHERE along the top. I do however enjoy playing the FIRST level over and over as long as i remind myself you WILL NEVER get through without losing any shield/life
Disappointing
Okay, so I don't normally write reviews, but after playing this game a few times, I felt compelled. Let's start by treating this as a regular defense game.
- You don't get nearly enough money per kill, you can't upgrade your turrets fast enough in order to kill the stronger enemies and/or build enough turrets to provide a proper defense.
- Air units. What the hell? Why do they come across the screen like that? There is no way to provide complete air cover early on and your only hope of defeating the air units is blink luck.
- Why do the turrets move so slowly? I get that you didn't want to them instantaneous, and that's fine, but they should move faster than this. Also, if you're going to make them miss from time to time, that's a decent idea, but I had an air turret miss 2 out of 3 shots, which is ridiculous.
While the graphics are decent, the game-play is really bad even for a standard defense game.
Now, as for this being Xeno Tactic 2...it's a profound disappointment. Xeno Tactic 1 was a fantastic game because it required real strategy to survive. You had a build a good maze in order to beat all but the first level (never could beat level 6). This is just another ho-hum defense game, like the thousand others around. I'm sorry, this clearly took a lot of work, but it is a terrible game. Not only as a sequel to Xeno Tactic, but as a defense game in general.
