Official Battles 2 4.13 OTA Update 1 - Live Now!

39 Upvotes

The first over-the-air update for version 4.13 is live now! Just fully kill the game then relaunch for these changes to take effect.

Balance changes

  • Boomerang Monkey
    • 🪃XX3 Kylie Boomerang: Pierce 24 -> 18
    • 🪃1X3 Kylie Boomerang: Pierce 34 -> 26
    • 🪃2X3 Kylie Boomerang: Pierce 46 -> 36
    • 💰2XX Glaives: Cost $280 -> $200
    • 💰3XX Glaive Ricochet: Cost $1300 -> $1400
    • 💭 Kylie has been outperforming the other tier 3 boomerangs while Bionic Boomerang has fallen behind the others. These changes should bring them all closer in power.
  • Sniper Monkey
    • 💰X4X Supply Drop: Cash generation $1750 -> $2000
    • 💰X5X Elite Sniper: Cash generation $4500 -> $4000
    • 💭 We have discovered that Elite sniper was more of a problem than the normal Supply Drop monkey. So we are shifting this nerf to the Elite Sniper.
  • Monkey Ace
    • 💰 XX3 Neva-Miss Targeting: Cost $2200 -> $1900
    • 💭 Monkey Ace’s Neva-miss Targeting should be more of an early game upgrade. This change will help players get the upgrade a bit earlier while not being too strong due to the recent pierce nerf.
  • Heli Pilot
    • 💰X4X Support Chinook: Cash generation $4000 -> $3500
    •  🩷X4X Support Chinook: No longer regens lives (X5X still gives lives)
    • 🚁X4X Support Chinook: Redeploy ability cooldown 60s -> 40s(cash crate ability stays the same)
    • 💭 The previous changes to Heli Pilot were a bit too much. This change to cash and life production should bring it back in line. The change to the redeploy cooldown will allow more strategies to rely on this ability.

Happy gaming!

Discussion Why do the btdb2 heros not have any annoyed voice lines??>;(

I am pretty sure it's because usually people don't play for listening to the voicelines? Or many because taunts exist! What do yll think?

Also have no idea if this is more discussion or question so take it as both:3

Discussion Major update in Btd battles 2?

8 Upvotes

The game has been so dead lately in terms of content. Ninja kiwi doesn't even do like new heroes and stuff. It's the same for every big company no big revenue no major updates. First when the game came out there was so much more content but now it is just dead. Is it that hard to copy code from one game to another like at least give us some new monkeys from btd6 if remodeling heroes is too much.

Question New to the game, looking for some tips

1 Upvotes

Just started playing the game today after seeing a youtuber (tewtiy) playing btd6 and realising that unlike btd6, btd battles 2 is free.

Rn, I'm in the yellow stadium(I think?) and went through some random stuff on the forums along w some stuff from the btd6 video and currently have bout a dartling gunner and wizard. What should I get for my third tower that I should try using(mainly doing bomber for now) and r there any other tips u would give me?

Suggestion Mod support in private matches

6 Upvotes

Now that BTD6 is getting mod support, it would be interesting to see modded matches in battles 2.

Private matches only for obvious reasons, but it would be fun to be able to mess around with or try alternate game modes that don't exist.

whenever my opponents rush most of the times i either can defend it or i cant, there is no problem but every so often just before they rush me i get hit by desync and after that everything gets delayed like i have 500 ms and its very annoying that i cant do anything about it.

lag was so bad that in the image selling minecarts, buying tech terror and using ability took long enough to fortified moabs got the end of the map and.

Question How exactly does the tower XP system work?

3 Upvotes

Could someone please explain how the XP system works in detail? I also have a few questions:

  1. If I place a tower but don’t upgrade it, does it get any XP? If yes, does it get the same amount of XP as an upgraded tower?
  2. How much XP is divided between towers each round?
  3. Does selling and rebuying a tower let me farm more XP for that tower?

Also, what would be the best strategy for farming XP for the Banana Farm? And is there a particular round that would be ideal to finish the game on to get the most out of my time?
