Reviews for "Farm Fortress Beta 2"
dr-m responds:
Thanks man!
It would be a lot better if I didn't need to spend 5 minutes going into and out of the shop after every wave healing up.
dr-m responds:
You mean to get healing? Plant some cabbage and it will heal you when its grown!
I gave it like a 10 minute play threw the only thing i didnt like was the inability to see more. id like to more easily detect where my attackers are coming from via a map or an overhead view i felt blind is what i mean.
dr-m responds:
Unlocking the radar does exactly that (first thing to unlock), mean while watching the red onscreen blinking gives some clue. Thank for trying it!
So far I spend 2 hours playing this and I really enjoyed it.
It feels like a crazy crossover of FarmVille, Towerdefense and 2D-Shooters.
First thing I should mention - you can buy lives and a larger building area, however at my current game progress I can't tell if you'll actually need to invest any money or if this game is fair towards non-paying players.
A short tutorial and a list of goals get you started really quick - but sometimes I found myself lost when I was looking for additional information about the gameplay and buildings (Since this is still "beta" I hope there will be a more detailed help-site later on.) e.g. How can I win when I attack someone else?
Another thing is the waiting period after you run out of lives - 6 hours are too much! (Maybe I could at least farm and build while I have to wait for a new life)
Also the melee attack and farming controls feel a little weird.
But overall it's a fun game to play - looking forward to the final version.

Hey Elefaent, thanks for the feedback. We want it to be a fair f2p game, so we are careful with what we sell.
There are some mysteries around the ranking calculation and other stuff - adding more tooltips is probably the way we will initially solve a lot of this confusion of things in the game. We are adjusting everything still, so the 6 hour thing might change or you'll get more lives at every resurrection instead.
my only problem is during the tutorial I keep getting disconnected and constantly have start the game over and my internet connection is working great.
dr-m responds:
Ow sorry to hear that.
It should work well on most connections, but servers are in europe and us, too far away from that can be a problem. Also some firewalls (soft or hardware) might look down on the traffic and cut you off.
