Is CIU a true successor to the Chicken Invaders series?

@ChickenRoaster

IT was free to play : This is one of the reasons why i chose CI4 to be my favourite

It wasn’t. It was just available to be pirated. All CI games from CI2-5 are paid. You’ve pirated them.
Here’s the link on Steam, btw: https://store.steampowered.com/app/301300/Chicken_Invaders_4/

@ChickenRoaster

The plot : CI4 has the most tightly woven plot in the franchise. CI5 on the other hand has a somewhat loose plot, compared to CI4.

I agree here.

@ChickenRoaster

MORPG Games like CIU, COC are great but complicated. They can take a slice out of your life.
If you dont play them everyday and play with dedication you’ll fall behind the others and eventually you quit the game because its not enjoyable anymore.

I disagree. CIU is not time-based unlike the games you just quoted and is not PVP. You can just progress through it slowly and steadily and still enjoy it because it’s largely single player, still.

@ChickenRoaster

Its not as simple and streamlined as previous iterations. Sometimes the UI can be complicated and confusing. It doesnt look like previous iterations in the CI franchise.
The menus can be cluttered and cramped . The UI needs a rework.

…seriously? Just wait for CI6. CIU is an entirely different beast and it doesn’t have anything other than the MMO aspect. It’s non-linear. Without it it’s nothing. In my opinion, that’s what makes it CIU. In my opinion the game could give those equipment for completing things in-game to make things easier. But honestly if you’re complaining about that I wonder how you get to the fridge for snacks if you’re that lazy.

@ChickenRoaster

Whats more , these missions are too long and time consuming

…? The missions shouldn’t take longer than twenty minutes each. Unless you’re talking about Weeklies, those aren’t required for progression. The game is also very forgiving, you can pause in the middle of a mission and pick right off from where you left.

@ChickenRoaster

Now , having P2P elements is not bad, but unless implemented properly , it can create a vast gap between the players who spend in the game and those who dont.

There’s virtually no gap between paying players and non-paying players. CHL is a vanity item currently and is in my opinion a waste of money because it gives virtually no benefit to the player experience.

@ChickenRoaster

I suggest that some of the features in the license thingy should be made free to all players.

Then what’s the point of it? If it’s available to all players then it can just be the base game. The game needs to make money somehow.

@ChickenRoaster

Its not possible to play this game during your free time at the office becuase of this.

Do your job. Games are for free time, not in between work hours.

@ChickenRoaster

Its a game that requires dedicated effort and time, which contradicts the CI franchise’s slogan.

What slogan? Previous games were single-player, and you could pause them. The campaigns are all a few hours each, which still requires “dedicated time”.

@ChickenRoaster

Another thing is the tier system . Even after playing it for 2 days i still dont get the hang of it. .It seems too complicated a thing , coming from CI5.

What’s complicated about it? You get score, you tier up. The more you tier up, the more missions you can access. I think it’s rather obvious.

@ChickenRoaster

Compatible missions are hard to find for low tier players.

Yeah, it’s real fault of the game to not point players in a direction that can make it really, well boring sometimes. Though iA has not seen fit to implement such a system yet. I think a quest sytem would really work.

@ChickenRoaster

The tier system is good feature that has not been implemented properly in my opinion. Perhaps they should reduce the number of tiers and so on.

Hmm. Maybe the should. There should be more rewards associated with it.

@ChickenRoaster

I suggest that IA should fix these issues. Its not too late since the game is still in its early access stage.

Three years, and the game hasn’t moved much. Good luck on that count.

You might want to check this topic out too. It’s much more detailed, and more informed than your analysis.

I need to talk about Chicken Invaders

Hello. This will not be an easy (dare I say, it will be boring) lecture to read (mostly due to my writing), but I feel the need to state some (maybe obvious) things and share my thoughts. 1. Chicken Invaders Origins Chicken Invaders started as a parody to a Space Invaders. Some can say that it was an inspiration, but I personally see it as a parody and there are people that also think this way. But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t great. Because it was great. I mean, it was better than space invade…

why is yt and steam embed not working anymore
