So, I tried to go for an 4.5k run, and pretty quickly I realized that it would takes some, time...Well, it has been 2 weeks now and I got to 2.5k (finally). Since I just let the game run at the background while doing other stuff I haven't been paying much attention, but one thing I noticed is that playing at x1 or x7 doesn't seem to make a difference, waves take about the same time.
Last test that I did I completed 1 wave at x7 in 4:10 minutes, but the next wave I reduced to x1 speed, you might think that I would take almost half an hour, but no, it took 3:20 minutes, it was faster. Granted this might be wave spawning units and it just so happen that the latter wave had fewer units so making it quicker, but, that was at x1 I would imagined that would take WAY more time.
Well why not just run the game at x1 them? So about that:
The repair packs accumulate a lot, that + the ungodly amount of mobs in each wave make it about the same, and that doesn't happens in 7x, packs still spawn but they de-spawn normally so they don't clutter the screen:
Also, the game really been running for almost 2 weeks now, is good thing that it saves after you close the browser, I would say that there is about 100ish hours in this run, probably more, started with about 300 gems.
Really liked how you could see the enemies hp and dmg like before, is there a way to toggle that?
I hope the units that can spawn doesn't grow exponentially, at this pace it might take me an day per wave T_T
Is this intended? I mean the multi-day run? Because I can't access the base, I can't collect the daily reward or the missions. It would be kind of weird to let the player upgrade mid run, but some of the menus would help, like those two.
My honest take? If it takes an month to do an 4.5k wave, with 21 in the game...That's too much, balancing stuff like this is pretty hard, since the amount of waves is already so large, an minute per wave is already 75 hours, that's 3 days, I'm still of the opinion that 4500 wave are way to much, unless each waves can be vastly speed up.
