@InterAction_studios

I’ve already explained why

I couldn’t find it. Can you quote it?

[InterAction_studios]

@Knightcap

how about 30% ? Or 25% ?

We’ll balance these (maybe with a poll) after all 5 episodes have been tested.

[ordinary_ryxt]

non

@InterAction_studios

Yes, because loading is suspended whenever there is “user activity”. Even moving the mouse around does this.

[ScarletCuboids]

@InterAction_studios

I replaced this one in v.5 Idea

I was expecting the original audio but lesser compression but okay (though the old dragnet version should be included in “Original Music” unlockable, episode exclusive )

36. Launching the game on for the first time causes mobile UI to show for half a second (this only happens on launch for the first time and will not happen again even if data is deleted)

[Sammarald]

would be nice if the other ships also had similarly styled paintjobs instead of the CIU defaults (or is that too much to ask for)

[CuretheToony]

Okay, reposting some the suggestions of mine that did not cover it at this time.

Episode 2 BETA

Suggestion 4: [CIep2 2024-09-20 04.48.57 67.171] Is it me or beta version makes uncomfortable to me, imo that was called as well the next wave subtitle but the names will have an major renames: beta version should’ve called playtest it really fits massively well because it’s an playtest of an episode before it goes live (other games used that, too) and the next wave subtitle should’ve called the next wave remix since it’s an revamp of the original game with some an mix of aspects from later …

Episode 2 BETA

aside from this i forgot to mention nobody suggested this due of losing the charm over to original but it’s lacking the starfield movement with the mouse in the menus from the original tnw and it’s shame. [image] please bring it back for this episode exclusive i adore it heavy at lot.

Episode 2 BETA

but what about an optional unlockable or full-exclusive unlockable to enable the classic sfx from the original the next wave? (coin, death, egg splat, egg throw, extra life) (excluding the chicken sounds leave it as it was)

Let me know if might to get an reply, @InterAction_studios

[ScarletCuboids]

35. The CI2’s current default paintjob is a bit too dark and “Depressing”, so I suggest some changes.

Base color: Significantly brighter (AAA8A1).
Cockpit: slightly desaturated (FFABDA).
Weapon pods texture (both): uses the 5th style.
Weapon pods color (both): uses the same black as the fuselage and wing (1F1F1F).
Wing texture: uses the 6th style.
Others are unchanged

36. This menu chicken’s vest should be bright red (while in EP3, it should be Light Blue).
    

37. Customization in CI Episodes should be one-time purchase like the old CI5 instead of like CIU.

[VerMishelb]

@ScarletCuboids

Cockpit: slightly desaturated (FFABDA).

You’ve made it even more depressing.

[ordinary_ryxt]

ä lighter shade would’ve been nice

[Knightcap]

iA didn’t online in one day. Is iA working on Ep4?

[CuretheToony]

Nah, i’m not sure probably he’s going to take their time during hard work serving episodes 2 and 3.

[Knightcap]

Here is some of my old suggestions that i told before, but i think it’s necessary to quote them once again:

@Knightcap

If i’m not wrong, there is a “CI2 button sound” from the old game. I think we should use that sound, instead of the CIU button sound in the DLC game.

Simple suggestion: Using the old button sound for each Episode, instead of “CIU button sound”

@Knightcap

The career medal for each difficults. This feature is already existed in the old CI5 game. I think this is very useful, so that everyone have the motivation to collect all the medals for each difficults.

After i read my post and your reply again, i realize that you may misunderstand something…
I told you that the feature is similar to the career medal from CI5, which mean that they look like this:

(source: Chicken Invaders Wiki)
Yes, each difficulties have their own career medal table.

@Knightcap

In case you agree to add this rule, i want to suggest to you that each difficulties should have the different target to collect a special weapon, or an extra live. Here is the detail:

1- Score target for collecting a extra live:

• Tourist/Rookie: 1M for each extra lives
• Seasoned: 2M for each extra lives
• Veteran: 3M for each extra lives
• Virtuoso: 4M for each extra lives
• Superstar Hero: 5M for each extra lives

When you use a skill that not Tourist or Rookie, your score will be increased a lot. And that why i suggest this for balance the game (is it necessary for you to bring a lot of extra lives?)

2- Number of food items target for collecting a special weapon item:

• Tourist/Rookie: 50 food items for each special weapon items
• Seasoned: 60 food items for each special weapon items
• Veteran: 70 food items for each special weapon items
• Virtuoso: 80 food items for each special weapon items
• Superstar Hero: 90 food items for each special weapon items.

I can explain to you that why am i want this. We are now can collect the food easier than the old game, i think you already know this if you played CIU for a long time, and newbie player can learn how to collect the food more easier. So… there is no necessary to keep a lot of special weapons in your hand like the old games, since all weapons are balanced now.

(Leave the “1-”)
Additional: According to my calculation, if players have a good skill, they can collect at least 3,000 food item. (of course this number can be higher for many players with better skill). With my suggestion is 90 food items for each missles, and turn on the “Half missles”, we will have to collect 180 food items for a missles. This mean that players can collect about 16-18 missles per missions. Player with better skill can collect about 20-22 missles per missions. For players that don’t have good skill, they should collect 8-12 missles at least. I think they may use more missles from chapter 8 and above.

Moreover, with some mechanics that CIU brought to both Episodes and CIxU, we can use each weapons more easier with their balance, and also we can collect the food items more easier. And that’s why i suggest the food items target for collecting each missles.

@Knightcap

I have just thought about reworking the tutorial mission.
What if the tutorial mission for each Episodes will use 5 waves from the previous episode? Example: Tutorial mission in Episode 2 use 5 waves from Episode 1.

This isn’t a good time to remind this, though you replied me about this. But i don’t feel good if i see the “future” waves as a wave in the tutorial mission of a Episode game. I may post a specified topic about this (or just leave my suggestion in your later topic) in the future.

@InterAction_studios

@Knightcap

However, for 2 HUD from CIU, they should be unlockable

They are a CIU-exclusive feature, so no.

I also read this once again and… am i misunderstand something? I thought all CIU-exclusive feature can only be available if we buy the game. So this mean that “HUD Enemy Health Indicator” and “HUD Pecking Order Revealer” can only be available if we buy the game, too. Maybe this is my fault because i didn’t use the exact words, huh? (i think).

@InterAction_studios

@Knightcap

how about 30% ? Or 25% ?

We’ll balance these (maybe with a poll) after all 5 episodes have been tested.

I’ll test this before that time, and i also tell this later.
I can give you my guess that the CI2 with turning on “No atoms” setting, turning off “Weapon from the future” setting and turning off “Weapon Rush” setting will be the mission with have the most firepowers. From this, we can guess how many firepowers do we have for other Episode, with the same setting.

I’m going to reach my last suggestion for Episode, which apply to all Episode game application (not for each specified Episode).

There is an error in the keys. When you take a key, it does not give you an indication of that. I am the fastest person to complete th

e game

[gabytzu]

So as I understand,the price, will be 4,99 per episode,in my opinion a little expansive,no ofense, I allready pay for all’ the series one time, It does’t mean that I want the episodes for free, I want just some advantage for the registerd memebers like a special price , 3,99 for those Who buy all’ the episodes , and evan some amonts of keys maybe
Or you could let the original price for all but give some BIG advantage for the registered members!! Similar As The enternal gratitude

Is there a partnership between a company pop cap games × Interaction Studios Between game pvz ×CIUThis is beautiful Whoever agrees with me responds to my comment

An example he adds is this plane that appeared in pvz DS It’s wonderful Who wants to try my mod from the game pvz Here is the link https://drive.google.com/file/d/12jv3rfJt-xhKeIdUWZF2VhDHLbfp_XKZ/view?usp=drivesdk

[PlasmaX]

the amount of keys that you get (that you see in the description of medals) should take account how many keys you get for what skill you used (i;e 1 for rookie, 3 for ssh)

[Sailor_Star]

Extreme heat and cold at the same time??!!
Does this make sense?

It’s not a complaint, but rather curious

[ordinary_ryxt]

@Sailor_Star

Does this make sense?

@InterAction_studios

(and, yes, you can have both hot and frozen)
(and, yes, you can have darkness on top of everything else )

it’s a video game it doesn’t have to make sense
