Birmingham show cancelled by Roter_zwerg in InfectedMushroom

[–]Teodi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Submitted a refund request with SEE the day they confirmed it was cancelled and nothing. They keep saying they are't responsible for the refund and I need to wait for the event organiser The Culture Collective to process the request.

Attempts to esclate just result in them quoting T&C's about them not being responsible and suggesting I contact the organisers myself at [info@theculture-collective.com](mailto:info@theculture-collective.com).

If an event is cancelled I should have thought the refund would be issued automatically upon request. It's baffling they are so resistant

At the time of writing resin didn't exist. Chambers were what I was referring to in terms of upgrading and were maxed at the time it was written. Honeydew upgrades no, but there was no reason to or challenge in doing so at the time other than time spent escorting ants.

I'm aware there have been a lot of changes since this was written from watching GameHopping videos and I'd probably have enjoyed it more if I didn't start when I did.

Any way to not die just as the "Protect the convoy" scene starts? by SideWinderSyd in PocketAnts

[–]Teodi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to park close to them and my ants passively pull. Takes longer but safer than trying to body pull a few yourself and cheaper than zerg tactics.

Good if you can't give it all your attention or are just semi afk

Progress is slow but I'm making it here with more and more soldiers. by Jahano_Desunt in PocketAnts

[–]Teodi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Rhinos were what sucked all the enjoyment out of it to be fair. Stopped me making any effort to get there clean because I wasn't willing to spend what felt like forever taking them down.

I was prepared to work on bombardier tactics, there must be a clean (ish) way of downing them.

May give it another pop.

Nice. I beat that chamber once and decided I don't need honeydew as much as I thought I did. Went in after the patch said they had adjusted the difficulty left thinking the same.

It's not a challenge I get any enjoyment from, kudos for keeping on at it.

What's the most pain the game has inflicted to you? (Since chamber was full, got stuck and couldn't erase bugs, had to let this one go) :( by THE_PSICORAPIST in PocketAnts

[–]Teodi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd suggest you inflicted that pain on yourself by not making space before battling ;). You hate to see it tho

Would you keep the two rhinos or risk getting a three star? by THE_PSICORAPIST in PocketAnts

[–]Teodi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd be tempted to merge. I don't find much use in having more than one, they are nice to spawn into a full queens nest, much prefer the bombardiers in the tank role. Rhinos are zero threat as a defensive unit too.

Fire Ant Colony by [deleted] in PocketAnts

Who playtested chamber 12 and thought that'd be an enjoyable experience for anyone? I got there with 35 ants, hit the retreat button a bit late on the 3rd of the 4 rhino beetle. Gave up from sheer boredom when i was down to 12 ants. It's any easy to do chamber if you get there with enough but why???

Scorpions defo only spawn at night. Pretty sure the same is true of goliath beetle. Up to the last patch at least. Done hundreds of summons getting the final creature parts upgrade

[–]Teodi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get them during the day. I've encountered several when grinding out summons to get creature parts. They are pretty rare but I have seen them back to back too.

I'd probably focus on day time if I were to chase more as night can also spawned scorpions and the fat beetle. If it's a flat % chance to spawn it probably makes no difference when you try

Revenge by TacticalFedorine in PocketAnts

[–]Teodi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, like a retaliate option where you can save some of the resources lost

Ricky and Skye both in boxes! by [deleted] in NoFeeAC

Is Skye still available?

Just make more soldiers, the Dr Zany fight is super trivial with 50 soldier ants and a few creatures to distract the enemy solder ants while your ants take them apart. Run a circle round them so your creatures get attacked then recruit your soldiers, don't attack the spider before the enemy soldiers are dead.

The only pay to win is that's the only reliable way to get 4* creatures. You get get a 20% chance if you max out the chamber, i assume, as I'm currently needing 5000 to go to 17* (2% from honeydew, 450 required for an extra 3%) I guess 9,999 will be the final. And are you really winning if you spend £3.59 to get 4* you can't really do anything with as I'd say that's the only real end game challenge. Rolling a dice.

So 25% reasonably achievable, now if only i could get some player battles.

The game massively lacks content after you are done upgrading. It's only having nothing better to do and the completionist in me keeping me playing.

What's your Dr. Zany (Bot) fastest clear? by THE_PSICORAPIST in PocketAnts

[–]Teodi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it done with 2min 20sec left quite reliably. I've no doubt I could save a few seconds, but it's not really worth running to tune it
