They already showed off you get a sliding scale to choose how much money you dump into one when making it instead of having to make 25 copies of the tower and pad them out with upgrades
No kidding, I see this shit too often >wtf why is the game abstracting information and not telling me what the best meta strategies are, I'll have to look up a guide >wtf why is this game so easy now that I know exactly how to make it as easy as possible, also pls don't rebalance
>stick to a meta in a singleplayer game for absolutely no reason >win every match
start challenging yourself. do the 3 tower challenges even if the reward is miniscule. play co-op solo just for the terrain limitations. i could go on and on.
I never use top or bottom path druid but Superstorm wins out over Avatar of Wrath for the simple fact it doesn't require 5 other fricking druids to operate at peak performance
it would actually have a huge effect, since all the most powerful towers mostly need farms to get
if they weren't there all towers would have to be obtainable just from the money made per round, which would need huge balance changes to prevent just using the best towers and ignoring everything else
i guess you could keep all the other money making abilities and just get rid of the farm tower, but then the same problem would happen since TSG, super mines, paragons would be basically impossible to get
Feels weird to have a certain tower required to use a gimmick
well it's mostly for fun, it's not like you need a VTSG for like 99.9% of things you do in the game, every game mode that isn't bosses is perfectly doable without farming, farming is mostly just for having some fun with OP towers

top path is way too expensive for what it does
bottom is requires a whole bunch of support for a mediocre tower for the price
middle is an instant kill + global range wall of fire and the T5 covers the whole map with it
That said I don't think the T5 is worth it in chimps. It falls off too hard during late game and normally it gives 1000 cash per round to help refund it's own cost but obviously it doesn't do that in chimps.
Adora, she's really good, sees through LOS blockers, synergizes great with alchbuff, and is the easiest hero to power level.
If not her than etienne for making an entire type of bloon ordinary.
I mean, once the card game releases, I imagine more time going to btd6, can’t really update a card game unlike the video games, unless they wanna made deck expansions.
https://bloons.fandom.com/wiki/Monkey_Teams_(BTD6)
Got it, just in case any other anons were wondering. It just means a challenge to beat the level with a small number of monkeys.
I remember someone saying the drone would be the glue but I think being the actual suit might be better since they’d be able to feel more sensitively then and they’d be nude
for intermediate maps there should be an obvious center point that reaches both paths you can build around. For maps that have two paths that alternate one path at a time global range towers like heli are pretty good.
Does anyone here actually use insta-monkeys and monkey powers?
Personally, I feel like a tower defense game is a puzzle, and using temporary powers just kind of defeats the purpose of the puzzle. Like I'm not solving it properly, or that I don't have the skill to do so. It just feels cheap, like cheating. I hang on to all my powers and instas and just never use any of them.
>powers
farmer and techbot for freeplay, and various for CT. I think I used a cash drop at the start of a boss once.
otherwise I just dumped some randomly for the achievements >insta
Half cash on the harder maps, though I haven't done those yet. I've used a farm once or twice for bosses. I think I used one for the round 100 deflation achievement.
Game doesn't really do a good job and bridging the gap between easy stages and hard ones.
Like, there's no stats or DPS counters so the game already requires a lot of experimentation if you don't want to look things up, and if you do it turns out there's one good strategy and that's it, the rest being pixel perfect with monkey and farm autism placement.
There's no good lategame, but early game is really fun.
Don't forget a lot of T5's have funny descriptions that have no info on the stat changes.
I think every T5 branch of every tower needs a Quest to explain how good it is as well as show off things that work well with it.
There should be an advanced tooltip option that specifies the exact functional differences between each tier and exactly what new features do, what damage types they are, what they can target and their range. etc.
lmao I was homeschooled, all I did all day as a teen is bloons and etchi anime... homeschooled has a busted meta, for like 50% of the work, they let you just enter in your grades yourself and hope you arn't lying
I wanna see how paragons are reworked
They already showed off you get a sliding scale to choose how much money you dump into one when making it instead of having to make 25 copies of the tower and pad them out with upgrades
Nice, that change alone makes things a lot easier in my opinion
Thank frick man. During the boss I made the bucc paragon but there's finite space for it, like 5 per pool and it was gay
I wanna slap ben
This game is too fricking solved for me to enjoy it anymore. For all its content it’s very shallow and there isn’t a lot of variety in how you play
What variety do you want?
>googles most efficient way to play game
>cries when game becomes boring
The Gankertard cycle
Sad, really
No kidding, I see this shit too often
>wtf why is the game abstracting information and not telling me what the best meta strategies are, I'll have to look up a guide
>wtf why is this game so easy now that I know exactly how to make it as easy as possible, also pls don't rebalance
post your profile medals
i've got a few
Nice stuff
Here's mine, I guess races would have the most varied tactics due to the rulesets but I really don't play TD games for high APM gameplay.
Sweet
>stick to a meta in a singleplayer game for absolutely no reason
>win every match
start challenging yourself. do the 3 tower challenges even if the reward is miniscule. play co-op solo just for the terrain limitations. i could go on and on.
I only play my favorite towers. I do co-op with my friends on CHIMPS hard and usually we just goof around and it just werks
I like to only use my favorite towers sometimes too even if it’s not always logical
simple
don't use farms
I wonder when we’ll get another new tower
What would make for some cool new towers?
I still say a clown monkey would make for a good tower
Wizard that gets option for cool fire breath upgrade line as well as cool storm summoner upgrade line.
We already have a wizard, though
>cool fire breath upgrade line
This is already Dragon's Breath
>storm summoner
This is top path Druid
Isn’t druid’s top path also its worst path?
I never use top or bottom path druid but Superstorm wins out over Avatar of Wrath for the simple fact it doesn't require 5 other fricking druids to operate at peak performance
I'm just being stubborn. I liked a few towers much more in 5 than in 6. I also kinda miss having buildings instead of monke knowledge.
What are some other good tower defense games?
gemcraft is a good one
Thanks, I’ll try it out sometime
where is the update nk seriously
WHERE IS IT
I WILL NOT PLAY BTDB2
The update were the friends we’ve made along the way
there is no way any of you have this one
You’re right
I
FRICKING
KNEEEEEEEEEEEL
Nice
I am trying, I do the challenges every day. 78% on the achievement, so I have about a month and a half left before I get it
I respect the grind, anon. I hope you can achieve your goal.
wtf this game has a community here
personally i dont like sauda
them's fightin' words round these parts, stranger
Design wise or gameplay wise?
design and i dont like her voicelines
voidora is much cooler but ben is the best anyway
but shes like that easy mode button yknow
You mean adora? Voidora is a skin for Adora.
Have you bought double cash anon?
No
>pay $20 real money to trivialise the game
I can already do that with powers and insta monkeys for free. What's the point?
There isn’t one
>Have you carved your brain out of your skull?
No, I haven't.
How about we play some coop guys
Maybe set up a code
What’s the best tier 5 tower, in terms of being both cheap and strong?
Tack Zone, Prince of D, PLord, Carrier and SubCom are also up there
spirit of the forest never fails me
Middle path is great in general
302 super monkey is basically the same power level as a regular cheap T5
For real T5 I'd say bottom path wizard
050 Sniper to buff 032 sniper spam, works in bloody puddles chimps
005 Sniper.
005 Spike factory in single lane maps
I just passed level 10,000 on bloonsPop!
Does anyone else play that one
Yeah, I play it a bit, funny thing is that I think that game is actually a mainline game while the tower defense games are spin offs
Only 139 anti camo radars left...
SHOW ME EVERY SKIN YOU HAVE UNLOCKED
PLEASE
I NEED TO SEE THEM
Nice! Keep going!
It surprised me to find out druid and alchemist aren’t in btd5, I swear they were in btd5 but that must have been a mandela effect
I wonder if this thread will get lewd
if it gets to 200 posts, maybe
BTD6 is boring, every game is the same banana farming strat.
Chimps is the only time this game is enjoyable
Sure, if you exclusively play boss events. The normal gameplay does not require farming.
you don't farm on every difficulty, do you anon?
How much would it change th game if farms were removed
I don't exactly know, all I know is farming makes temples and paragons possible instead of tier 5s being the top tier rare thing
Feels weird to have a certain tower required to use a gimmick
well it's mostly for fun, it's not like you need a VTSG for like 99.9% of things you do in the game, every game mode that isn't bosses is perfectly doable without farming, farming is mostly just for having some fun with OP towers

i guess you could keep all the other money making abilities and just get rid of the farm tower, but then the same problem would happen since TSG, super mines, paragons would be basically impossible to get
look at this dude
he has only one good upgrade path
His good upgrade path still makes him one of my most used towers
which path
Middle
top path is way too expensive for what it does
bottom is requires a whole bunch of support for a mediocre tower for the price
middle is an instant kill + global range wall of fire and the T5 covers the whole map with it
That said I don't think the T5 is worth it in chimps. It falls off too hard during late game and normally it gives 1000 cash per round to help refund it's own cost but obviously it doesn't do that in chimps.
Only top path sucks. Middle path turns him into a sniper that doesnt need linebof sight and bottom path shreds when set up correctly.
Middle still seems like the best in my opinion
>he
Yes, he
Anyone up for co op?
Who is your favorite hero?
Adora, she's really good, sees through LOS blockers, synergizes great with alchbuff, and is the easiest hero to power level.
If not her than etienne for making an entire type of bloon ordinary.
Good taste
>level editor
>but no custom bloons waves
whyyyy ninja kiwi whyyyy
Maybe that’ll be in update 39… IF THAT COMES OUT
How in depth is the level editor again? Like can you create your own levels?
You can make challenges, every challenge is made by a player
Cool
Druid secxxxxoooo
Clean cut, and still cuts a tomato
>tomato
Don’t you mean bloon?
she's deranged and must quote infomercials, please understand
Nice
I think NK is spreading their resources too thin. They are even making a card game now, BTD6 isn't gonna get much support anymore.
I mean, once the card game releases, I imagine more time going to btd6, can’t really update a card game unlike the video games, unless they wanna made deck expansions.
I think some of the hero’s skins could work as their own heroes
What is the weird star and dart icon that shows up on some maps?
https://bloons.fandom.com/wiki/Monkey_Teams_(BTD6)
Got it, just in case any other anons were wondering. It just means a challenge to beat the level with a small number of monkeys.
Has ninja kiwi made any games besides bloons?
yeah, they had a lot of flash games on the old NK homepage but none had the staying power of bloons
Any headcanons about the heroes or towers?
I think adora and ezili are related
I love glue drones, especially brickell
I remember someone saying the drone would be the glue but I think being the actual suit might be better since they’d be able to feel more sensitively then and they’d be nude
New to the game, anything else I should prioritize monkey knowledge on after getting Monkey Education and Mo'Monkey Money?
These will help every non-chimps game tremendously.
Specifically free dart monke and more cash
thanko anons
Sexy monkey
Rush the bonus monkey and more cash from the primary tree. They let you snowball surprisingly hard.
Frick, I completely forgot about the knowledge component of the game
>intermediate level has bloons coming from multiple directions
how the frick are you supposed to coordinate this?
Druid middle path, I suppose
for intermediate maps there should be an obvious center point that reaches both paths you can build around. For maps that have two paths that alternate one path at a time global range towers like heli are pretty good.
Ah, sweet
Bloons is one of the games where the characters I use most are the ones that I find the hottest
Glussy

I never like using them for that reason. Well that and I have trouble finding the right time to use anything that is one time use
>powers
A few times I played contested territory, yes.
>instas
Frick half-cash expert maps
Seems like instas are mainly just to make cash related challenges easier
>powers
farmer and techbot for freeplay, and various for CT. I think I used a cash drop at the start of a boss once.

Thanks for the advice
>instas
only t0-1 dupes for the cheevos
>powers
CT and freeplay
nobody cares how you use them
I use them gleefully on extra-moronic Odysseys.
Smart
I use Portable Pools constantly. My favorite towers are the two water towers.
Honestly surprised how non lewd this thread is
all the coomers are infatuated with AI
speaking of which can AI draw bloons art?
I’m actually a but of a coomer myself I don’t know which ai does that
the most recent AI that people have been using which caused the current craze is the bing AI.
https://www.bing.com/create
don't, please
i think there's enough threads for that in the catalog
jannies prune bloons threads really quick if they have anything lewd in the first ~150 posts
Hopefully, its more lewd, soon
gotta keep it bumped for that
Yeah
Cute
I don't even like the game, I only like the Monkeys. Can't they make a new game with the monkeys that isn't TD or generic popping crap
I like the td titles but I admittedly also do wish we could get an rpg or fps with the monkeys, too
Game doesn't really do a good job and bridging the gap between easy stages and hard ones.

I think every T5 branch of every tower needs a Quest to explain how good it is as well as show off things that work well with it.
how can you possibly get a better description than this is a BIG plane
Just add a secondary description that explains the damage and fire rate buffs
There should be an advanced tooltip option that specifies the exact functional differences between each tier and exactly what new features do, what damage types they are, what they can target and their range. etc.
I can’t think of a good solution
Glue gunners are sexo
*muffled comments about XO
Apopalypse builds? I only know the druid one
Isn't it just "get a lot of pierce and at least a couple of farms"
Ninja plus 110 sniper covers everything pretty cheap, from their place your hero and start saving up for your favourite towers.

Do you use the heroes/towers that you find the hottest?
