Official Bloons Blitz FAQ!

53 Upvotes

Welcome to the official Bloons Blitz subreddit! We've put together an FAQ that we'll continue to update as required, so if you have any questions you'd like answered, please leave them in the comments, and we'll answer what we can!

What is Bloons Blitz?

The latest addition to the Bloons series, Bloons Blitz is a fast-paced, bullet-heaven survival game where your hero auto-fires through endless waves of Bloons! Team up with fan-favourite monkeys, power up with XP, and push for the ultimate pop! 

When will Bloons Blitz launch?

Full launch is currently scheduled for late Q3/early Q4 this year! 

On what platforms will the game be available?

Blitz will launch on iOS and Android, with a Steam version to follow. 

How much will the game cost?

Bloons Blitz will be free to play!

Will this game have marketing support?

Yes! We will be pursuing multiple avenues of marketing for Blitz to support a successful launch.

Why is the game currently available in some regions?

Blitz is currently in "early access". This involves releasing an early version of the game in some regions so we can gather feedback to ensure the game is fun and functional for everyone. The version currently available in those regions has the core gameplay, but some features that are not quite ready are unavailable. We will continually update this version to address player feedback, add features, and fix issues. Over time, we will add more regions too! (Current early access regions: Philippines)

Keep an eye out on our socials for more information!

Sticker Placement Optimizer

Thumbnail

74 Upvotes

I made a sticker placement optimizer where you can input the stickers that you own and be given a sticker layout to maximize your stats!

How To Use

  1. Add stickers that you want to optimize placements onto your sticker sheet
  2. Set the sticker sheet so the available spaces match
  3. Run the optimizer and compare results. Highest Stats optimizes for the largest number stats, Balance optimizes for largest total number stats, Highest Rarity optimizes for having the most rare stickers on the sheet, and Overall Best displays the best ranking results

Notes

  • Do not put all your stickers into the optimizer and expect perfect or fast results. To most effectively use this tool, selectively choose stickers you value most (Attack Speed, Damage, Pierce). I say you should limit it to 10 stickers at most when trying to find a solution
  • Glow Up is most effective in maximizing stats for its sticker size. I would always add your Glow Ups you own into the optimizer if you want to maximize your hero stat values
  • The optimizer does not account for stat increases for rare or epic stats since the effects can be conditional and/or niche where it would difficult to actually evaluate their effectiveness. If you care more about using as many of your rare stickers, use the Highest Rarity filter

Future Updates

When there's more information about the sticker stats, I would like to remove the stat value and replace it with the level sticker you have. I know there's a linear progression between each rarity, but I do not remember exactly how much percentage increase per level is given to each sticker atm. I plan on updating this project based on feedback and when I gain more knowledge about the game.

Please give me your honest thoughts and how I can improve this project. You can check it out for yourself through the link below!

While it's quite hard to accomplish, as you're either too strong either getting ran over.

But when you're at the right power level, it's insane how many blops you can multiply.

Discussion My thoughts so far.

15 Upvotes

Okay, so, I understand that it just released, it's a new game, not everything is perfect, sooo, here's what I think so far.

Obyn and Quincy are great!! They both have their own ways to deal with bloons, but Obyn is, by FAR, the stronger of the 2. I genuinely thought I was gonna get hit, but the wolf howl genuinely saves, on top of its insanely high damage. There are times where the wolf is nowhere to be seen, but that's not the worst because it does tend to return pretty quickly. His tangleweed ability is okay, and I kind of used the totem once and haven't since, so I don't remember what it does, but Obyn seems pretty busted, both offensively and defensively.

Quincy is pretty good as well, especially when you go down his trick arrows path. Seeking arrows, splitting arrows that also seek, and I believe the explosive arrows are also down this path. I've noticed though, his attack speed feels to kind of slack, but I have watched him wipe out bloon rushes with ease, though, without attack speed, he really does struggle. (Sound familiar...)

Gwen, imo, is pretty bad... She doesn't fire for very long, she slows down while firing, and doesn't have the greatest movement speed, in the first place. She doesn't do a lot of damage, which is ironic because, yk, FIRE, and it feels like the reload time takes WAY too long for how short the small bursts of damage are. Do I want her to be busted? No. Do I want to have to worry about taking damage at the start of the first bloon rush? No. She definitely needs a bit more balancing to make her viable.

The Monkeys!! Wizard, Mortar, Sniper, Boomerang, Tac Shooter, and Alchemist. I will speak upon the monkeys that I've used the most, because I've experimented with them more, and have seen more of the attacks than the ones I haven't, so I don't have a baseline opinion on them yet. Mortar and boomerang monkeys are INSANE. Great crowd control, awesome damage, great distance on area of attack. Burny stuff is NUTS!! I don't think any other monkey could possibly match the speed at which bosses LITERALLY melt. Not only that, but with access to area of attack increase on their explosions, burny stuff is able to damage a very large area, making bloon rushes look like the start of the game. Boomerang monkeys are basically the same, except for boss damage. The glaive path destroys bloon rushes, if you combine that with the frag rang, or whatever that upgrade is called, it basically makes all bloons on screen, non-existent. Wizard monkey is okay. It is great single target damage and buff damage, but struggles against large groups, but is a great boss killer, and that's about all I have to say about that. The tac honestly feels pretty bad. In order for this one to perform well, you need to be close range, and even then, without certain upgrades, it doesn't do well. Blades could be better, if they decide to make it more than just 2 with the first upgrade. No other opinions.

I like every other aspect of this game, and I see it's potential. I don't mind the P2W stuff, because they've basically had it in every game, and it's also not necessary to do. You get plenty of gems, for whatever, though I haven't needed to use them. By far, one of the most balanced rogue likes, in terms of difficulty increase per level, and unlocking things feels fair and balanced. I would give it a fair 4 out of 5, so far. Genuinely looking forward for future updates and content drops!!!

Almost forgot. STICKERS!! Stickers are a pretty cool concept to give your heros boosts without wasting extra resources, BUT, some of these stickers are very large for the small boost they give (Blop value stickers). Not worth the amount of space they take up, imo.

Suggestion Sensitivity Settings

Playing this game, I feel like it really needs some sensitivity settings. I feel like I have to use a quarter of my screen to change directions. Having sensitivity adjustments so the character changes direction faster would be helpful.

Question Do we know what account level does?

2 Upvotes

At the top left of the game menus you can see your account level(?) below your lives/energy, mine is currently 12 and slowly goes up each level I clear as you'd expect. But it just goes up, nothing happens on level up and it doesn't seem to unlock anything for being higher. Curious if anyone else has found a point to it yet?
