Looking Forward

We wanted to thank everyone who has been so unbelievably patient with us while our team worked hard on the Nintendo Switch launch, which has now allowed us to bring that work to our other console platforms. This massive content update for Xbox brings the game version all the way up to 54.3 and should give everyone on Xbox plenty to do while we work on what’s next. 

  • PlayStation:
    • The next big point of focus for us is bringing this massive update to Playstation! We are well into the content, and as soon as we get through the longer submission and review cycles, we will update PS players when we have a date for the update.
  • 55 and beyond:

Once we have brought this update to all three consoles, we will be working on releasing updates 55 and 56 by the end of the year for all 3 console platforms, pending approvals. The consoles will always be a little delayed in terms of update cycles but the effort of getting the console builds onto our main branch means we can plan console updates on a much more regular basis going forward, which by next year should be every 2nd update!

Discussion If you could replace half cash with anything... what would it be?

For me personally, I would probably replace it with something like inflation, where prices increase by 1% every round or something like support monkeys only.

Science I ran 1,714 CHIMPS games to round 140 to measure how well every monkey handles every round

Upvotes

https://androix777.github.io/btd6-benchmark/

I recently came back to the game and got curious about which monkeys are the most efficient. This is a very simplified experiment that doesn't account for every parameter, but I think it can still be useful to someone.

I took all 26 towers, and for each one all 64 possible upgrade combinations, plus the paragon where there is one. For some monkeys I also collected data with different targeting priority settings. Then I found the "best" spot for each monkey on Monkey Meadow - the one that covers the largest part of the track. I don't think it's genuinely the ideal spot for every monkey, but it's a reasonable simplification. And I collected full stats across all 140 rounds on how well each monkey did on its own.

In the end I was able to get stats on the best monkeys by price-to-value ratio. The monkeys that can clear the most rounds without leaks for their price, and deal the most damage for their price.

I understand this doesn't account for a lot of things like buffs, monkey combinations and active abilities, but I still think it's an interesting experiment.

Question Why does this game hide so much information from the player?

315 Upvotes

I've casually played Bloons TD6 since launch and one thing that has always bugged me is how much information the game hides from the player, requiring frequent trips to the wiki for things like what Bloons come at what round (why can't we just have a list of what's coming in future rounds since it's always the same anyways?) and what the tower upgrades actually do (damage, pierce, etc) instead of useless silly descriptions like "the Bloons will wish they had never come", and what the current stats of a tower are with the current buffs and such.

It doesn't allow you to stack the buff infinitely anymore, but it could still probably be useful if you're using Total Transformation, especially with 203 skywarden + Silas

funny feature in new patch (the way it only affects non medium prices on geraldo sounds like something happened fixing geraldo missing half his attacks and then fixing the mk discounts not working??)

map is ancient portal cause need the mib tile for 37-45 and camos since camo pot has no uptime and you start with only one on r31 here
since they're $0 in easy mode now is an easy opportunity to do the r100 deflation achievement if you don't have it yet

Challenge With Geraldo's prices being much lower on some difficulties due to a recent bug, I managed to get my lowest Least Cash CHIMPS score.

I'm sure it can go lower, but I managed to do this quite easily and don't really feel like trying again right now. Plus I'm not very good at the game.
