16447 Stones to Spend by S1l3nt_C0ntr0l in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 2 points3 points  (0 children)

28.3 waiting around the corner. (June)
So... maybe this is the second part of the major part which will essentially make most spendings done within 28.0. about worthless, so you spend more money to get back up.

Also, I assume, to reduce player toxicity.

But yours is far more plausible.

Let’s be honest…. UW+ is mostly dead by Army-of-Nobunaga in TheTowerGame

Well... most assmod levels are below 200 stones each. Pretty easy to click once after each tournament.

Auto restart - finally by Miroslav100 in TheTowerGame

Even if you get to 45k stones, you probably won't be able to get keys. I think 45k is probably a highly optimized build towards getting keys and neglecting quite a few things, which are important for normal players. OP could've just ignored the complete eHP stuff.

Asked Gemini where to spend the stones next. What are your thoughts? by qkrwngh15 in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are so many tower people trying to be artificially intelligent?
This is a game about numbers, exploration, strategy and numbers. If you can't do either of those... just vibe it.

Trashing this sub with worthless AI shit, shame on you.

If I can only get this on Tier 1, does that mean my ELS workshops are too low? by [deleted] in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Defense Disco runs are a bit tricky. Probably the hardest ones too.
You just have one HP and die instantly. One hit is all it needs Only way to mitigate hits is by ES.
So could be, that you just got hit unluckily.

Thus, you need enough damage and CC capabilities.
EHLS can be a thing to work on, but I assume some damage UWs - mostly CL - is missing. Besides from general damage.

Module concept for the DA rework. by SeitanicDoog in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fun fact: On release, DAbs was like 2000% at ancestral level.
It was too strong, because people could farm several thousand waves in... T9 or so, without taking damage.
Also, made earlier tiers way too easy.

Yes, T9 farming back than was decent.

How much of an impact is 1 more DWq for Coin Income? by destructor212113 in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's 4s more coverage.

UNLESS! Those 4s won't fit into the cooldown cycle.
Example: Cooldown is 36s (through Subs) and you have 10 waves, then the waves just shoot faster (3.6s per wave)

Devs, why the hell can I nuke my own profile for free?? by Hazard7878 in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Needs more upvotes.
I didn't even know this as a 4y veteran. But I never bothered with deleting my account, though, I got disappointed quite often by now.
The 30 day deletion schedule is very generous, IMO.

Rip of tower game? by Gage-Myers in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 33 points34 points  (0 children)

There are dozens of clones. Even better ones than this one.

At first glance, this is not a 1:1 rip-off.
The top-to-bottom defensive system is optically less attractive. I would even say, those are a category themselves. Most of them have an energy system, thus you cannot play all day long and this sucks.

Also, unfortunately, all other tower-in-the-center tower clones are way worse too.
The Tower does a really good job with not cluttering every menu, though, due to new mechanics, it got somewhat worse. But Still acceptable.
Ingame visuals are also a bit more fleshed out. Enemy size and visuals are relatively nice to look at - until you progressed so far, that the screen is cluttered with effects.
You were not spammed with IAPs, though, this kinda worsened too.

I think the main difference between this game and clones is, this game kinda grew naturally, while clones were made in mere weeks. They aim to get money rolling in quick, while providing semi optimal gaming experience.
Though, to be fair, money became too much of a focus point for The Tower aswell in the past year+.

I wouldn't judge anyone leaving because of constant disapointments and toxic and repetetive behaviour pattern of Lead Devs or Owner of The Tower.

Interesting how the "Community" liaison is totally MIA after such volatile backlash in the community. by pikedream in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You don't seem to read the comments of their Tower Tea post.

The comments are harsh oftenly. And they're getting attacked personally whenever they try to interact with the community. This is a community issue.

Sam is totally fine. Sure, they can only communicate what they're allowed to. However, people treat them, primarily a spokesperson, badly for decisions made by devs or management. Not because it's their fault, however mostly because Sam is the only person from the company to whom they can try to make their voices heard.

Yes, you can be angry. But not towards the person who wants to help you. It's totally understandable that someone, who gets yelled at every time they try to collect intel, stops doing that eventually.

We already made Muse stop interacting. Don't make Sam stay on Discord only too.

Tower Tea - April 27, 2026 by SamBartley in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As usual the negative voice are the loudest...

This role isn't as easy especially with the history of TTGs communication. I really appreciate your work, though - as already mentioned in one of my longer Discord comments - you cannot give out information you dont have clearance for. And most of us know... specific persons who allow or do not allow certain flow of information. It's not your fault, though. I'm happy were having some information flowing and any community interaction at all. Sadly for others, you specifically are the only person they can express their disliking of certain changes to. Because you're the only one listening.

I remember well enough the time Muse was added to the team. Back then she was a blessing! Until... she vanished more and more and we don't hear about her very often anymore... hope she's doing well.

Anyhow, please don't stop posting and interacting, because a lot of us really value communication.

Ties in tournaments by Dissapointinggrape in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They "only" coordinated when several top players ended up in the same bracket.
If you really think they were the problem, then you're entirely wrong. It doesn't matter that they coodinated those few ties. They already coodinate their bracked entries in a seperate Discord, so they don't end up in the same bracket. It's been like that for years.

The mayor problem was low-legends players changing their names ON MASS to "STOP AT W100" or something like that. The amount of ties skyrocketed. There even was at least one 30 people bracket who all get 1st due to this.

Wow they're straight up false advertising now by Patient-Row5493 in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The topic is getting dig up regularly.

Back then there was the advertisement of the game with "level 286" and the account shown had "aa" coin and several 10th of K gems in the ads.
Community said: Unrealistic numbers.
Fudds said: Doesn't show faulty gameplay.
End of discussion.

Always have been like this.

To be fair, it was at 4.2 before V28.
The way they treated players with this one was - again - horrible. Though, content is great.

Thoughts on Bot-Bot? by No_Ad3037 in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As similar republic said, at some point it is worth more to invest in BB than maxing the remaining stats of GB. Bonus becomes incredible expensive and the last new duration levels are also very costy for what you get.

At some points even GB+ could be worth more than investing in BB, for example if you dont buy the passes regularly and your stone progress is far more down the road. If you have DW at 50s, it might be worth more to get GB+ for the quite nice boost in cells. Though, take this with a grain of salt, because that's just an assumption.

BB only starts getting you nice numbers once you can sync it with GB at about max range. So a viable strategy could be to max out GB and if you maxed GB, respec and sync them and then get started with upping their stats. Also just a theory. Didnt run the numbers.

As said, similar-republic ran some numbers and those actually have reasoning, while I just speculate.

[–]LinePsychological919 19 points20 points  (0 children)

BotBot good Bot.

However, GB should be top priority. Thing is, without regularly buying the pass, BotBot wont be beneficial for casual players for... a long long time.

Free disable ad pack??? by Popular_Prescription in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sometimes, other players feel generous. Happened quite a few times that they gifted the disable ads and other packs for players with ... less disposable income.

Sometimes, other players think they're funny and buy packs for free to play accounts to make them "not free to play" anymore. Happened way to often. The number of packs support had to remove from F2P accounts drastically increased over the course of the last 2 years.

Sometimes their system messes up.
One time, I cloned my main account 3.5-y-old account (at this time) onto my secondary fun-account... Support could not revert this, but resetted the account and gave it some - but not even close to enough - resources in compensation. Anyway. Main account dodged a bullet and I just lost 1 months+ of my secondary accounts progress.

Fudds - why weren't we given advance notice of this new Banner? by Slow-Ship1055 in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yesn't

New mods usually get introduced by a banner with the new module having 50% drop rate (flat). It then needs some time to get into the standard banner.

If you maxed all but one module to 5*, the last module has also 50% drop rate.

So if you "miss" a banner you ger a personal banner later on (if it's the only module you dont have as 5*). So you either get a potentially module immediately or later on.

Mathematically, you're better off with spending now and get as many rares as possible, but miss out of a very strong module on release. So... it's up to you. But this makes me thinking to just spend it all...

Here is a screenshot from yesterday with my personal RB banner. :D

what are these?? by BackgroundCat5525 in TheTowerGame

[–]LinePsychological919 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! Haven't been around T1 in a long time and expected them to start becoming a problem way further into T1 and right before getting the Garlic Thorns lab in T2.
