Here's some feedback on Krug. His turrets are extremely powerful against the bosses, and pretty viable the first 20 levels. But... all his other skills are pretty much useless, and a waste to spend any time into. Maybe not Thermal blade, but it is hard to build him around it, and too expensive to try and build him into multi aspects. The fact that he is only viable when trained into turrets that are useless later on makes him a pretty bad pick, if you wanna progress and get better at the game. I don't know what to change about him, since his skills doesn't go well together. It would be nice if maybe he got a different resource to rely on, or a different way to rely on them, than nuke the nuke cores, since they seem to be way too random compared to Blaze's fury. Too much of the time i get caught up empty handed with no nuke cores. Since he is an aweful auto attack hero, he really needs a way better way to survive. I understand that he was considered overpowered before, when there were a maximum of 21 rounds, but when playing him now he just seems like a useless pick after round 21.

Other than that, the only character that can really survive beyond round 35+ is Psion due to his flight mode that gives him a short timed breathing space. I hope that other characters will be built to withstand the later rounds, since it gets alot more fun after round 30. Maybe increase the level cap. Give them some different passives and some high level skills - Perhaps level 25-30 skills. I know this is a little early in the process to come up with this, but like the the map, and take my time to go through the different aspects in it, and come up with new ideas, or feedback on the different characters, enemies, and skill systems. I hope some of this could help you, or has given you a few ideas.

The bug does happen when turrets are placed on illegal spaces that are being taken by something else. It will still drain the nuke charges, and my guess is that it is because the nuke charges doesn't function like energy, and therefor the game does not negate it the same way.

tho it makes Krug OP besides his turret glitch...arent you only supposed to have 3 turrets able to be up? 1 match i had 7 turrets up on 1 boss each doing 125 dmg and me doing 145 dmg...my guess is that its a bug with the supply cost of the turrets...it does use the supply but it doesnt limit it to 3 and u can go over it.

No problem. I enjoy your project, and will let you know if there is anything else that i feel a need to report.

You should try checking out the leech thing on Blaze though. It doesn't seem to proc the right way on him.

Another issue is the lag. And the thing causing it is all the numbers popping up above enemies, when damaged. Managed to reach lvl 36, but all the way back at lvl 29 the lag became really intense due to the extreme amount of numbers popping up above the massive amount of spawned enemies. This lag was for everyone, not just me. Would probably be a good idea to just completely remove these numbers, have it only show critical hits (recommended), or have a command to disable/enable them, as the lag will become your worst enemy at that point of the game.

Also, leech seems to have a cooldown on it. When using it on, for example, Blaze. While having his extremely fast attack speed, it only seems to occur approx every 0.70 seconds. Since he starts off with 0.20 attack speed, and can go down below 0.10 this doesn't seem quite right. Hope this helps :)

I don't quite know about the Behemoth, but it would probably be a good idea to nerf it's early game HP and/or damage/skill dmg. Sometimes it is just a little too much, and forcing you to run. Especially when there are 2 or more, especially mutated ones, on your screen in, for example, the SIU round. Perhaps lower the HP or whatever that would suit it for a little less harsh early game.

Seems like Blaze is still an underdog. Perhaps if you gave him the ability to do critical hits with his auto-attacks, instead of just Open Season, and give him 1 extra base defense. Because right now, he is still very weak, compared to any other character, and far inferior to any of the other DPS'

Yup, that Krug bug is probably one of the most annoying ones. I have wasted countless turrets that were never placed due to the lack of space, yet it still drains your nuke charges. And since the turrets are the strongest part of Krug, it really leaves him vulnerable when those charges are gone, especially with the recent turret nerf.

Theres currently a bug with krug... heh rhymes. Since the turrets are 2x2? and are only seen as 1 square if u place it right by a wall of something of the sort it wont pop up =\. Its def a bug/glitch repeatable a million times.

By the way, kills caps at 65535, so it might be a good idea to add them to the sidebar or something, if it matters at all.

Hey! im another one of you who loves this game. Ive played #1 like 7 months ago and loved it. I just came back to sc2 a couple days ago and found out #2? wow i love this game. ill be playing this game every day for the rest of summer possibly lol. I would love to add you guys and mabye test this out with you =) Edit: i just made this acc just to post on this =) just to let u guys know how much i would love to play with u and the maker

Blaze does not seem to take any effect off of the life/shield leech, which makes him completely useless late-game, since it's the only thing that will keep him standing against SIU's and lvl 21+ monsters. He starts to get weak in both damage, survivability, and overall usage after level 10. Considering that he is a dps/tanky-dps, makes me sad, cause he is really fun to play, but the biggest lack luster on the team. Seeing how Dead Eye, and the other 2 DPS' can shred through enemies, and all take effect from the leech, (i don't know if the leech is actually bugged right now, and doesn't affect anyone), but it seemed to work fine on the Dead Eye in our last game, and yet not working at all on Blaze. Also, after the newest update, with increased levels, it seems to automatically give you a defeat after wave 28, no matter what. Happened to me several times now. Also, there's a new thing where the waves might not spawn anything until you reach one of the 4 boss waves (Which is a pretty long waiting time if you're on wave 1,6,11,16.

Yes, however by doing that you actually lose damage in the long run, since you can only get 5 points of damage increase with blood. The straight damage bonus allows you to get an additional bonus which isn't capped by anything else.

Once you hit player level 3, instead of taking the damage up with your skill points you can purchase Infested Blood instead and get the 10% from the infusion tree, instead of only getting 6% or whatever.

You can dodge lickers tongues by teleporting, don't know if this is intentional so I'm reporting it. You can easily blow through the king propagator without ever seen any festerlings because of how easy it is to kill the propagators, you might want to consider making him spawn multiple at once.

Contamination and ventrical leeching don't work at all for deadeye. I don't think they work for anyone but he is who I was trying it with. No extra life or shield gain at all. And I don't notice any reduction in enemy speed.

Psion's Radiating Fusion only seems to target one unit and hits that one target multiple times.

@Etravex: Go

Hey man, first of all I loved the first game and I love this game EVEN MORE!!! However for some reason when I play it tends to become stuck or glitched on a round and will not go on to the next round.

More observations/bugs. Just killed matriarch on normal mode without her summoning any waves. Don't know if this in unbalanced or just '"normal". I noticed SUI pods dropping blood and mineral crates when they spawned their SUI. That seems like a bug. You can keep all the creepers in one place by stunning them as they hatch. I do this all the time with Deadeye. Blaze feels weak, but that's probably just because I suck with him. Deadeye feels a little op, does INSANE damage to bosses when used right. Did you change it so kills are tracked by hero? I notice my exp no longer matches up with my hero kills and each hero seems to have a different number. I think savage should be even harder. I was playing as Deadeye with Seifer who was playing it for the first time and got all the way to about wave 12, blowing through bosses like paper before he left and I got taken out by one of the jumpers, stunned me long enough that I got swarmed. Likewise, to go with the even harder theme I have going, I think it would be cool if you could unlock hero "specials" at high player levels like 10+ or 20+. Perhaps a passive that reinforces their primary role, for use in savage mode. Savage mode simply shouldn't be possible to beat without a team of 4 high level players IMO. Should be an absolute endgame for total addicts :p OH and something that I've been think of for a while, wave 21 feels really meh. compared to the rest of the game and to the last boss of the first game it just isn't cool. Totally me here, just giving my opinion. If you'd like me to shut up please say so lol. I know I'm saying a lot and being very opinionated :/
