Awesome Strat, with NO Cheating.

This was done with an extreme amount of juggling. Prob was well over a 90 min game. By this point the game is slowed to maybe a 5 game seconds to 1 real second due to lag. Maze got a bit messy towards the end. Once the elite guys got near the end, I would do a bit of block/unblock to cycle them back a few mobs. This only works when you have a decent amount of space between them and the rest of the pack.

Key for me seems to be making the longest maze possible which gives me the juggling space.

I also stopped using the EMP pulse once I realized I needed the money elsewhere and that I did more damage if I let them hit more pulse emitter then juggled them back.

I made a few single target towers and focused them on the elite guys 99 perc of the time, with the exception of when I over spent myself and couldnt juggle. At those those times, I killed the lowest mob I could find for some quick cash.

oh i see how it is...you wanna have a juggling war eh?...Bring It!!

There it is boys.....

I left the whole screenshot there so you could see the time in the bottom right. Im going to post earlier screenshots to give you an idea of how long this took....actually, i wont post earlier screens here, they are in the screenshot area and you can go there to check em out if you want: theres one a 209 and 248

If you look at the other screens you can see my maze, it didnt change the whole game lol...just pure juggling and emp to slow...thats why it took so long, because after level like, 200 i didnt spend any money on towers

Conservative guess on time....5 hours

Looks to me like you have more maxed towers than you should for that stage in the game. I don't use nukes or emp and I've never been able to get that many maxed towers at that stage, or much later, in the game.

you bring up a good point here. I never thought to really question it before i guess. (i just went for beating it )

anyways, lets look at the situation.

He has 56 (if i counted correctly) pulse towers fully maxed.

I have, at a similar or far enough level, 20 pulse towers fully maxed, and 15 lasers fully maxed which cost the same as pulse i believe

And i was spending alot on emp's......

So really, i could see him having that many if he only spent his money on them....after a certain point i stopped buying towers, but im pretty sure i could have gotten that many, if not more

so no, i dont think he cheated

[HyDef]

I must be missing something then.

You earn 21 more credits than score for each red kill and 210 more credits than score for each blue kill. He is on wave 268. There are 30 waves worth of red on the board and 5 blue units on the board so at most, he's killed 233 waves worth of units but we'll give him 240 waves worth of kills.

That's almost 2100 reds and 18 blues. (2100*21) plus (18*210) plus the score of 269,000 equals $316,880 credits earned. I see over $390,000 worth of stuff on the board, add in the cost of emp's and "extreme juggling" and you're easily over $400,000 worth of credits spent. When I was at 269,000 points I had about $285,000 worth of stuff on the board without using a single emp.

Tell me how to earn an extra $115,000 credits at that point in the game because obviously I'm doing something wrong.

well, like i said its possible he cheated, but i dont think he did.

Did you take into account he is likely on quickcash? That could prove to give you quite a bit more money in the long run. Especially with that many levels passed.

[HyDef]

I hadn't taken quick cash into consideration because I haven't played it. Quick cash is +45 credits over score for red and +450 over credits for blue. I figure he'd have earned about $372,000 credits on quick cash. Who knows though, I could be missing something.

Well, it looks I owe someone an apology for suggesting something was fishy. I'm playing a game of quick cash now and the $ is coming in much faster then I thought. I can see getting that many towers that fast. My apologies.

[Kaputnika]

yeah, a juggling war! see mine... one wave less than soulfly, but more enemies killed!

280 / 300k

[Soulfly]

You seem to have missed my wave of 300 screen shot :P

This is a legit game i played...no cheating or anything.

And when i played this...i was going for # of waves specifically.
