Plasma Cannon = worthless?

[CaptainMouse64]

I love this TD game. It was just updated as well with new modes! Version 1.06

About the game.. Am I not understanding the Plasma Cannon? It seems very weak for how much it costs. Also, what if anything is hidden in the extra space in the tower menu? Under the SAM launcher I think..

You can build insane mazes in this..

For fun I made a massive flamethrower maze..

Ok, which towers are the best do you think?

1: ?
2: ?
3: ?

Which towers are the worst?

worst tower:
plasma--- too expensive, and worthless. Seriously, 4k for just 840 damage? (or something similar, dont remember :P)
SAM--- well, you got flack. and i like flack, it seems much stronger than this...
Cannon--- i just hate it its just a ground-pinned machine gun but slower. sure, yeah, stronger, but you got the other tower.

best:
Pulse emitter--- Try and make a maze with it. it really REALLY kills.
Machine gun--- Cheap version of plasma
Flack tower--- i luv this anti air XD just put two, upgrade it twice, and you're set for the rest of the game, litterally!


thats my opinion =|

I agree the Plasma Cannon really needs some help. I would be curious as to what the developer would say about my comment.

If you read this forum developer of Warzone Tower Defense, why is the Plasma Cannon so weak? Are we using it wrong?

I love your game by the way! PLEASE keep adding to it and updating it, and Warzone 2 would be AWESOME.

Actually, the MG and Plasma do EXACTLY the same damage/dollar but the plasma has a better range.

And their rates?

[The Noid]

Rates are in the damage/dollar calculation of course...

Yeah, but you pay in small doses, NOT in bulk :P (plasma upgrade= 4k?)

On the developers site he talks about the Plasma Cannon and how at one time it was overpowered, among other things. He says he thinks it's still a good tower.

best:
1. heavy cannon: huge range, effects many enemies around, just kills.
2. pulse emitter: perfect for wall-block-mazes, in a traffic jam it can effect 30 enemies at once. cool!
3. laser: i like how one ray can go through a loooong row of cars when you place it right!

worst:
1. machine gun: just a waste of space as you need so many. i need space for huge mazes and long paths! get out of my sight.
2. flame thrower: ya, nice. but really nothing special.
3. plasma cannon: yes you're right, it's expensive, it only hits one enemy at a time... but: its ground and air, and i just love how fast it kills in the beginning, when enemies are still weak! well it's a show-gun.
