Interest and Single Player

[Interest and Single Player]

Fail typo made this seem a lot worse than it is. But it's still a legitimate situation.

Well I mean I consider single player to be similar to single player in SCBW. Where you can use cheats and stuff vs comps to either test builds or just have fun. As far as I'm concerned if this strategy breaks down in the face of an additional player, then the situation is limited and under control.

Maybe this works for you but I would very much enjoy having a 'fixed' single player mode as opposed to a 'broken' one. Particularly since the only competitions we've had so far have been based around single player. For now I'm just staying away from double interest, playing multiplayer and random.

Alternate suggestion: Single player interest period should be fixed to 20 seconds; however, subtract 1 second for each additional player. That would make 7 player interest compound in 14 and 8 player compound in 13. Could be an interesting experiment to increase the impact of interest on these games, where it's currently almost non-existent.

i dont think single player is broken, as this is not a single player game and if your looking to exploit it you'll find a way. Personally when i was playing and the other people in my game died i got to level 50 or so with 50 lives. i killed all but one creep,sold all my towers and let him run through the maze until i had 10 lives left. by the time he did that i more than quadrupled my total cash with little to no interest upgrades, i was playing on random.

[Competitive Mode]

A game with a "locked" set of rules for competitive play. Very Hard/Race/Same Random. This would mean that it is 100% skill based, as we are all getting the same random towers, and the first one to finish would be the winner. I would enjoy this alot more than the standard 1 or 2 people income whoring on easy.

[Ice tower is sadface.]

Hail would be MOAR viable if it was water type.

And yes, ice is junk. So is jet.

Jet is so terrible it isnt even funny. it needs a serious buff or better yet it needs to be changed. perhaps to the old WC3 torrent tower which had a chance of buffeting enemies into the air and down again when it was activated.

[Race Mode]

some guy on here was complaining about noobs just pushing the top and starting waves early. screw the delayed start, just bring back race mode, which is every man for himself first to finish main levels wins. Level triggers once you finish a level, and everyone is independent.
