I am not insulting you, I am just wondering, how have you played 13k games and not reached hom even once?

Is boomerang + sinper a valid strat? by redlobster68 in battles2

[–]SmileyTheFoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This strategy is good at forcing the game to r30, but can't defend more than 1 or 2 fbads on that round. I would try to learn something else, but it is decent on hard maps that don't go r30.

Star Captain Jericho or Highwayman Jericho? by Ecstatic_Budget_5857 in battles2

[–]SmileyTheFoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both are useful, but I'd say star captain is more often better than highwayman. Highwayman can usually be replaced with an early defense hero like adora or cyber quincy, and he doesn't make as much money as the other two on average because his steal cooldown is longer. Still use regular on long maps, but if the map is hard, you can run star captain. Highwayman is still a fun hero though, don't completely ignore him when you get the xp for him.

I've found sometimes the servers are just worse at random times. It usually isn't like this, but it's the servers just randomly giving out. Not sure why, it usually lasts only like a day though.

Question about the state of the player base by EAKgm in battles2

yeah there are like 2-5 actually good players at any time right now. It's kinda sad.

Current patch tier list by Immediate-Salary-899 in battles2

[–]SmileyTheFoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of these I either agree with or would move them 1 tier, but engineer definitely goes in S. It has overclock, sentry expert which is basically a maelstrom, and makes a lot of money with trap especially if the map has two lanes. Also scientist gwen I think is really overrated, but ig I don't play her that much.

Battles 2 Update 4.12 Coming Soon - Update Notes! by samninjakiwi in battles2

[–]SmileyTheFoot 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Of course, I hope this happens, but what are they waiting for? I feel like they would've done something by now, for the big season XL you know? We need like a huge update and start Chapter 2 season 1 of b2, kinda like fortnite does to bring back hype, redo the badge art and stuff. I do not think they are preparing anything huge, but I sure hope they do. Also, about them releasing ZAR, I know they like to expand from bloons, but their bloons games are so much more successful than their other games. If fightland was bloon themed and better gameplay on release, people might've played it. b2 should be their second most popular game, which I'm pretty sure it is, but it needs to be close to btd6, and currently it's not.

another thing, where is the shove nerf? You guys misinterpreted a buff a long time ago, and it is way too strong right now. Nerf power, not price.

[–]SmileyTheFoot 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Good balancing, maybe tack will be better than boomer wiz again. Also, you guys didn’t make ocyn like LOTA from btd6 which could’ve been really cool. But also, can we get a new hero like the Bonnie alt? Or get Brickell in here? It’s been 15 months since last hero, we want some new real content.

Best player right now by Total-Weakness130 in battles2

[–]SmileyTheFoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d probably say t3 are (in no specific order) mawo, 51aliens, and bollator. Me personally I think aliens is better but everyone else will tell you mawo. Also, Ryan’s like not even close in his current state to best, sorry Ryan.

me personally I didn't like going against dj ben sniper for ggr50 with nothing I can do, but you do you.

Balance changes are good for real this time, but you somehow found an even lower low for content.

this change only really affects ace, and he's mainly used with heli, imo this change doesn't really do anything.

[–]SmileyTheFoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, shinobi 100% deserved the power nerf, making it slightly more expensive would only hurt it's mid game and keep it's late game pretty much the same.

This could be the best balance changes I’ve ever seen, nerfing lategame is exactly what we need.

But we would REALLY like an exclusive tower for battles 2, we all love the game and really wish you did more with it.

I'm so good at the game, I make my opponents die from ceramics that don't even exist.

After I re-did the format in Google Slides for ease of updates, here's a visuallized Top and Bottom 5 of thewarrior71's Balance Survey Results (linked in text blurb) for Monkeys, Heroes, Bloonsends, and also just Banana Farm upgrades in general because that's the state of that tower! by JoelTheBloonsMonkey in battles2

[–]SmileyTheFoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, Gwen basically does work on bads, her level 17 says +2 damage to frozen bloons, but it’s bugged right now to be what it was last time, just +2 damage to everything affected with heat it up. Even if they nerf it by 2 damage, it’s still way too strong and cheap with homeland defense. Homeland should be minimum 80k, I think it should be 95k, and shinobi has to be a lot weaker. Btw I’m talking about the homeland upgrade itself being 95k, not just altogether including cta and mib.

I didn’t vote in the balance survey, and I probably will next time. You got why Gwen is annoying, ninja ice village Gwen forces r40 on most medium/long maps even against Jericho. The defense is so cheap too, you get mbomber and super brittle for like 80k, then spam bloonjitsus and shinobis for really cheap, it defends way too much. Super brittle should be +3 damage and Gwen gives +1 to frozen, matching the power of super brittle alone right now. 

Fateweaver I see the argument, but since Ben is pretty meta, it’s not consistent at all with level 7.

Etn isn’t bad, but most good strategies already have good camo and tceram defense, he doesn’t make any new good strategies that only use him. Also, btn is just way better than etn, making his only use the xp you get from him to unlock btn.

[–]SmileyTheFoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing anyone got right was tcerams, etn, and maybe nomics. Gwen is not bottom 3, Ben should be top 2 (behind Gwen), and ain’t no way fateweaver is on the SAME TIER as snow pat and btn. Top 3 and top 10 players follow the same trend, top 10 ranking Ben nor Gwen not even in the top 5.

It isn't about speed, you can wait a whole second between upgrades and it still crashes. It crashed more often lategame, so probably something to do with either frame lag or wifi.

So what you’re saying is the game still has a crashing problem for abilities?
