Dang, I actually didn't realize there was a "search this thread" utility. Thanks!

That explains it...
No hard feelings though...
What lv are you? I got some gear and skills to give away:

lv 21 coolaidstylecannon 339.2 dmg + 3.3 agi, pow and vamp
lv 31 chaingun 382.9 dmg (50 clip, 2 ammo each shot ballistic)
lv 31 .223 536.9 dmg + 3.3 vamp

seal of beast explosion lv 1. Works like a 'sticky bomb', tag it onto enemies and run away. Delayed explosion approx 700 spell description dmg. 10 sec CD. PLAYER DAMAGED if too close to explosion. Warning: pretty big damage radius, approx same as hitcher explosion and energy phantasm.
adrenal rush lv 1
seal of cross (10 sec invincibility) lv 1

@ikemike sent you some random skills, don't have any level 11 weapons...sure someone will donate to your cause..have fun:)

Thanks gunxsword, but I'm only level 11 and you probably don't have any weapons that low-level. I think at this point I just need to grind... If you do have anything level <11, though, it'd be awesome. =D
A powerful vampiric melee weapon is probably best, since I need to grind. Or vampiric armor and a powerful melee weapon... Etc.

The Adrenal Rush would be nice, though. I'm pretty much only using attack and passive skills, so buff skills are good. Username is ikemike.

Do you guys have any grinding tips for a level 11er? My highest unlocked level is 8, and I'm having a really tough time with the death kites there. What level is the best to grind at for a level 11 person? Should I smash my way through it with melee weapons or my coolaidstylecannon?

A random question: later on in the game is there a storage chest?

Hey ikemike i sent you a .223 rifle, a tachyon rifle (both level 9, so it maybe a too low damage), a nice shield (level 11), a vampiric axe (level 13, so you may need to wait a bit) and 2 skills hope that helps! Don't thank me, i really needed to clear that space. I also have some level 14 stuff so tell me when you get there and i'll send them to you. If you are having trouble, i would suggest grinding a little, but seeing as you're level 11 and your stuck on floor 8, i would take a look at some other stuff. Are all of your equipment up to date? If not, keep opening the store and buy the nice armor (i.e. fine or above). Don't buy weapons, as their too expensive, so only buy them if you have some serious cash. You can goto the previous floor and play through it. This would help with grinding and the boss will probably drop some nice stuff, which will also help. Make sure that you fight the mini-bosses too if you find one, they're really rewarding. You can also farm at level 10 if you have the collector's edition (so all the floors are unlocked). You can kill the replicants and bots and they can't hurt you. They should give you some nice exp and some drops occasionally. If you're going to do this make sure that you use rifle or pistol as those are the only weapons that damage them. You may also have to take a look at your strategy. Going in with guns (or swords in your case) doesn't really work, especially from floor 9 on where the game gets harder. Start sniping enemies with a ballistic weapon, like a rifle, or even pistol works. Energy weapons don't work too well, as the energy doesn't travel instantaneously, so the enemy could move out of the way by the time it gets there. The coolaidstyle cannon is horrible as a sniper as it's a energy weapon, and it fires 3 shots which disperse, so at a distance, you'll probably only hit with the middle shots as the side ones will most likely hit the walls. Coolaidstyle is wonderful at closer range though, where the shorter dispersion allows for higher chance of hits. As for your last question, there is no storage system, but items can also be put in you're skills and materials boxes so you essentially have 3 inventory boxes.

P.S. In this message i use "floor" as another term with "level", which i suggest that everyones does this too so it isn't confused with exp level.

I'm sure Ryan mentioned something about the gifts not going out, but I thought I would check since I've gotten nothing since Doomsday?

I took out a lvl 11 minion a few days ago, while being only lvl 6 myself. Felt pretty good!

If anyone has any lvl 7 gear or skills they don't need I would be glad to have them. My best gun is still a coolaid, although I did get an awesome handgun from the lvl 11 minion which I was using, but getting back to 0037 it told me I wasn't a high enough level and when I checked it was lvl 11, bummer. I'm guessing it was a bug.

Finally starting to get some good weapons from drops! Armor is still coming from the shop though, although that is pretty good too. Why do swords (melee weapons) and shields resell for so little?

I melt all of them :D

Oh and is anyone feeling that skills don't drop often enough? Right now, some of my skills that I constantly used in lv 20 or so are bordering on the edge of obsolete (~lv 30), mainly because they are ALL below lv 3. I have grinded all kinds of bosses and monsters but I don't receive copies of the skills I use. From a pure RPG standpoint, this is rather inconvenient.

Anecdotally it feels like they drop more frequently in the summon's levels (Reyem, Banshee, et cetera) and on the occasions when mobs spawn as soon as you enter 0037. I've been able to farm skills relatively successfully in those two ways. I agree though that you rarely get the skills you want/use most though. But random luck is random.

I don't get a ton of skill drops, although I have upgraded a few to lvl 2 and I am only a lvl 7 character still. I would love to get a few more up higher though and I know that I am missing quite a few still as well.

I'd like to make a suggestion. I bought the Standard Edition because I'm cheap and wanted to pay as I go. I can purchase all the episodes, but I regret not getting the Collector's Edition for the doubled amount of armor. Considering I bought this game for a loot fest, that was a bad idea. Think you could allow it so that we pay a buck or two and get the same amount of armor the Collector's Edition gets?

After about 900 minutes I’m on level 12, the progress in this game is going quite slow, but that’s a good thing.
I have some suggestions, and also I’d like to point out some flaws of the game, because all the good stuff about Mission Europa was already said in this loooong thread and I don’t want to repeat it all – brilliant game all the way.

After updating iOS to 4.3.3 on my iPhone the crashing problem is almost gone. On iOS 4.1 the game was crashing regularly around every 20-30mins, almost every crash was when warping or getting a new quest from avatar. A couple of times I got a crash when trying to melt some stuff from my equipment. Now on 4.3.3 the game crashes like once per hour of gameplay, so with a good save system for me it’s acceptable. Every crash is caused by the same things - warping, talking to avatar, sometimes trying to melt things. Nevertheless they still happen from time to time, just wanted to point that out. (iPhone 3Gs, iOS 4.3.3, non-jailbroken, no apps running in the background, restarted the device after installing, Collectors Edition).

There is a weird bug when I’m in the shop (inventory + shop windows are open) and when I try to compare some stuff from the shop with something I’m wearing (third window with equipment opened) sometimes in my armor slots the skills icons appear. Although when I press that skill icon the armor window appears properly (with stats etc.) Weird, but it happens from time to time. Nothing very serious, but hey, that’s why we are here to point and kill all the bugs for the next update :)

I would like to suggest some changes in the way the map is displayed. It would be great to see something like in Diablo II with the map blended in some area of the screen, barely visible but still helpful to find your way through those levels.

And there is nothing more refreshing like the feeling when like 15 enemies explode all together with one shot of my Hitcher. My heart goes BOOM BOOM ;D

That is one device I do not have anymore as mine caught on fire =)

Well, now we all know that testing "flaming grasp" on your iDevice is a baaad thing... ;)

Will011

05-09-2011, 11:44 AM

I also have a few suggestions...
1) perhaps make the arena store shop prices a bit lower? with so few people in the arena, its impossible to get any of the items with the heads.
2) make it obvious what the stats do, and what armour does. It took me a while to find out what the individual stats do, and only today did I realise armour increased your health, and i'm level 31.
3) probably been said, but allow comparison between shop items and equipped items.
4)Stop the bosses using spells like wraith... I died 3 times in a row in 1 shot to a boss 5 levels lower than me because he used that wraith spell straight away.
5) Idk if I'm poisoned or something, but occasionally I start taking high rapid damage, which kills me in a few seconds, from the normal guys which are like 3-5 levels below me.
6) Some skills don't say what they do... like Heaven's Ward, and seal of beast explosion.
7) Dr Sierra tells me to gather ingredients for her to make me something, or tells me she has a gift for me, yet I get nothing except for the usual gold and ammo.
8)Mailbox Glitch - Sometimes, even after waiting 5+ minutes, the mailbox still says checking for messages, and I cant close it or access anything else unless I reload the game.
9) A place to store items? I have loads of good weapons that I want to keep and trade later, rather than sell for like 3k measly credits.

Does Reyem Neas actually do anything? I summon him mostly against boss characters and nothing ever seems to happen. He is currently lvl 2.0 I believe or maybe 2.5.

It would be great if the touch detection on retina displays was improved in the next update. :) It would be nice if I didn't have to move my thumb so much on the movement pad to reach full speed.

I'm not sure if this can be addressed, but I get stuck on pieces of the environment more than I would like, which often results in my demise.

I had the issue again where equipment item icons were replaced by materials and schematics and the items in the materials window had the swapped icons from the equipment screen. It makes things a bit confusing!

Still getting crashes with no clear pattern, sometimes on death, sometimes while in the shop, etc.

For the next present I would rather have something useful for the main game and not so much for the arena since I don't have time to play both. :) The presents started flowing again, thanks!

I've almost put in 800 minutes and am still not done with ep1 content!! Really an amazing game overall even with some rough edges still.

Getting new good weapons is rather difficult overall. They are either really expensive or dropped infrequently. It would be nice to see some schematics for weapons as well as armor, maybe with a different color to distinguish them.

Oh, one other question, is the snipe skill improvable or does it stay the same throughout the game? I pretty much only snipe now until an enemy gets too close. I am not really noticing an improvement in reload times, it might even be a little slower and firing rate is definitely reduced.

- the way you were walking last is where the ball goes it should do a good amount of damage to an area... best to shoot when you first see him far away and let him walk into it...

05-10-2011, 12:47 AM

Em suggestion:
Would like the spell effect/damage to change according to the level that the player is on instead of a fixed value.
As I advanced through the game (floor 34), half of the skills that I acquired earlier (floor 1-~15) are near useless. Some of the passive skills do NO damage, and some of the active damage spells do insignificant damage (other than ice bolt, useful effect).
Reason I'm proposing this is to allow players be more resourceful with the spells in all stages of the game. I do not expect the spells to do the same percentage of damage to all enemies, but at least make them useable for all stages of the game without having to grind for skill lv ups.

Very early ideas. Will give/discuss in detail if ppl like this.

There's a major point in the snipe skill (Doom's Eye) you're both forgetting: damage. Hit same monster with and without it and you'll know what I mean, sniping hits ~40% harder. Combine Doom's Eye + Headshot + Adrenaline Rush = 1-shot kill nearly everything except (mid-)bosses. That's why I think it's nearly broken and shouldn't be altered, much less to improve it.

Beg to differ but to each their own.

Low MP cost, extremely fast recharge. Can be used to set traps, or save your butt & give you immediate breathing room when you get swarmed by a mob up close in your face. It's also right useful on some of the more elaborate maps for setting navigation markers.

It's admittedly a little weak to begin with which is why a chance to level the skill up would be very helpful. Unfortunately I've found it to be a pretty rare drop. If you don't want yours I'll gladly take it ;-)

Thanks Ryan!

So, I'm on floor 8 and I am lvl 11. The difficulty ramped up rather steeply and I am getting one shotted a lot more than I would like. I just got a new helm, so I hope that will help, but the one hit kills really suck. I am also starting to use ManaShield, so maybe that will help. The DeathKites, which I have heard great things about, are often the culprit. Do I really need to grind more being 3 levels higher at this point than the floor?

I'm not sure how someone would go all melee in this game as I have a great amount of trouble still being a sniper. I finally found a hitcher and chain gun, but both were pretty underpowered because they were decrepit. I am still tempted to try the chain out to see how it goes, but I do like my tachyon rifle for the splash damage.

I have also tried to tackle the Reyem level for the second time and the enemies are no problem, but Reyem comes at me so quickly I barely have a chance to move. I think I almost got him last time, but then I died.

Bug Report: I found another bug, which is actually the 2nd time I encountered it. I was attempting to disarm the alarm system in floor 8 and when I got to it the label was for an enemy (defiled I think) and I could not interact with it. This happened before on floor 2 or 3 when I had to find a scientist. Restarting the mission fixed the problem. My guess is that somehow the objects are not always getting set correctly during the level generation, which could even be a cause of some crashes, maybe an out of bounds array issue (if you are using arrays). It was a bit of a bummer as the alarm was so close to where I started the level.

One other thing, how should I decide the best way to distribute my points into stats? I almost always go for agility as I like going faster and it seems like it might be a good stat overall to have high. How exactly do I make Vamp and Drain go up, since they seem important? They aren't directly increasable stats, so do I just have to try to get equipment that has them and increase Power (which I assume is actually Energy) and Int?

Phew, thats a lot, hope I can get some good answers. :-)

Firstly, Drain is slightly pointless... all it does is drain energy, however i am level 31 and have only ever ran out of energy once, and I have never used an energy potion.
Secondly, I am all melee... every point is in melee... and I haven't needed to use a health potion in ~20 levels. The only times I die are when bosses use wraiths and knuckles etc., or when I get burned/poisoned or something for rapid 200's :c
Thirdly, Chain gun is much better than your current rifle :d
and Finally, vamp and drain are only acquired from arma/weaps... vamp is very useful, as it drains health from enemies when you damage them... its my main way for health regen, except for the heal spells. And If I were you, i'd put all ur points in agil so you get max range damage :P

Thanks Will! I will give the chain gun I got a shot (haha) and see if it is better than my rifle. The damage is about 60 points difference though, although I suppose if the rate of fire is higher I might be able to hit enough to make up the difference.

Glad to know that melee is still a possibility. I enjoy sniping though, so will probably stick with that. I will continue to give my focus to agility and look for more vamp increases. I have never run out of energy either, not even close. Haven't used an energy potion also.

Chain Gun destroys any rifle in the game, even if its damage is lower. Superfast shooting, precise as hell, largest clip, lightning fast bullets, very very long range (if you couple it with a Doom's Eye you can kill monsters miles away).

Vampirism and Drain can only be obtained through equipment. Drain is nearly useless, forget about it, in the rare occasions you'll need to fill your mana bar an Energy Potion works better. Now, Vampirism is uber useful, pump it as much as you can, and it gets better in later levels.

With the last updates melee guns became faster and higher damage, so they're doable now. Dual-wielding fast swords + high level vampirism = crazy fun + very hard to die.

Hitcher is a good weapon but very imprecise, short range and its explosive effect takes longer than I was willing to accept. Coolaidstylecannon is similar but way better.

Reyem Neas can kill you nearly instantly even if you're very high level, safest way to kill him is long-range sniping, or Doomsday-run-repeat tactic.

I distributed (Level 51) nearly all my points into Agility (Speed, Ranged Damage) and Strength (Health, Melee Damage). Power and Intelligence are not nearly as useful.

I asked in the trade topic, but since I didn't get any offers I thought I would ask here too. Does anyone have a chaingun that is in great condition the is lvl 9 - 12 or so range? I would be happy to take slightly higher as well, as I will eventually be a high enough lvl to use it!

I actually got my first chain gun at level 12. I'd advise taking the time to sift through the shop for a chain gun. It's actually pretty good right now, since any chain gun you get will be at your level (chain guns can't exist at a low level, I think). Believe me, the game got a lot easier for me once I got the chain gun. Only thing now is that I actually have to buy ammunition... xD

Hey Ryan got some skill bugs. Heal still doesn't seem to work for me, whether in battle on not. I've only gotten it to work twice. Also armor talent doesn't seem to do anything. My armor doesn't go up when I equip it. Another thing is that Chain doesn't increase it's percentage after level 2 (or at least in the description). Same thing with adrenal rush, but even at level 1 the description says the same percentage when you level it up. Just some minor things, but hope this helps in future updates!

I got the sticky bomb skill last night, still need to try it out. The dreaded lvl 9 has not been too difficult yet, I even took out the boss minion thing. I am staying far away and taking things out though, which could be part of the ease.

Still no chaingun, have never seen one in the shop. Speaking of the shop, is there some way to make getting into it faster and the message a bit smaller, it starts to get annoying hearing the same thing every time.

It would be nice to be able to combine small materials into larger ones. I am not finding enough small and medium materials to make anything. Some of the ones required I cannot even buy.

I think it is called Phantasm something. I'm not exactly sure what I got it for doing, could be taking out the floor 8 boss again (he's a pushover now), the lvl 10 minion in floor 9, or from the skill quest the Avatar gave me that also gave me dual wield. I'm looking forward to trying it, especially since I think some enemies are now using it on me, although it does little damage.

I think the larger materials need to be dropped a bit more frequently, or smaller materials should be combinable to make bigger ones. I keep getting the tiny ones, but I don't have the small or medium materials to make anything useful now.

I also still hate enemies that shoot through walls. This is fine in a 2D game, but in 3D there is no way to see it coming and it just feels cheap.

These are two of my current suggestions for the next or future patches.

I finished floor 9 last night! It was definitely harder, but the only real challenge was the captain. I took him out in a rather cheap way, but it worked. He got stuck in his room, not able to go up the ramp, so I just sent in 5 axioms of carnage and took him out. Axiom really needs a faster reuse time as this method took forever!

Originally I set up 100+ phantasms mines expecting to just keep running away and having him follow me, but I never got to try it as I felt taking the definite win was better. ;)

It was really quite cheap that he used summons as well as a beam that can go through walls (really needs to be changed unless a skill to see through walls is added). He could even summon two Reyem much, much quicker than I ever could.

Also, do the minions really need to be that powerful? They give pitiful XP for killing them and they take quite a while to kill. The drops aren't even that good usually.

Oh, I finally found a chaingun in the store in normal or maybe even fine condition, but it was $52K, which is far from the amount of money I have. Schematics are still useless now, but at least they are pretty good for selling.

Basically I think the game needs a lot of rebalancing still and a lot of the bugs fixed. It is fun, but starting to become a little less so. A month of playing and fixes things as they come up would really help.

I tried for a while (Level 51) but after some time I got pissed enough and gave up. I don't mind a hardcore challenge (Demon's Souls is by far my favorite PS3 game), didn't have any trouble with the original level 9 in Mission Europa but as they're now the 3rd and 4th pillars are just too cheap.

I definitely hope they're toned down in future updates.

The damage from some of the enemies and boss attacks is too high. Probably due to lack of testing of the higher level areas.

Death Kites on level 9 are one shot kills a lot of the time, had to skip a mission or two because of them! Even the last boss of the level was easier to kill than them :/

Also, the sub-bosses on each level are like twice as strong as the last boss. I Keep getting one-shot killed by Cinder Furies when I'm 5 levels above them :/

So yes, some toning is needed.

And now for the bad news....the enemies go up in levels as you go up in levels. The really bad news? You'll die a lot more at higher levels.

When I started tackling the 2nd pillar I was level 13 and the enemies were around level 20. Snipety-snipe-snipe goes the chain gun. Uppity-up-up goes my level.
I'm level 30 and now they're level 39.

And all the "pop-up" enemies that pop out of nowhere when you hit a switch or kill a boss are all now level 29 and 4-5 pop up right on top of me and pretty much one-hit kill me. Going Rambo with the level 30 chain gun doesn't help much either. Gotta get space and THEN Rambo 'em.

The game itself is woefully unbalanced but it bounces back and forth from being good-for-you-rambo-junior to sucks-to-be-you-get-in-the-coffin-already so it's somewhat tolerable.
And still no spelling errors fix?

Thanks Will! You have seemed to fly through the game, I'm jealous. ;) Since good armor is actually pretty cheap at the moment, I am steadily growing in money. I have a hard time imagining having a million or more though.

I should qualify my previous post and say that I am partially concerned about how these issues will look to other potential purchasers. I really think if Ryan spent a month playing the game from the beginning and addressed the problems as they come up it would help greatly (not a 24 hour day whole month, just after work and after other obligations). It is really hard to describe some of what happens and frustration from getting one shotted and beams going through walls really needs to be experienced. ;)

I am also quite a supporter of this game and if I ever said (hypothetically, I never even hinted at this) that I did not get my $10 worth I would be lying. I think I am around 1200 minutes at the moment and will keep playing, but I fear that I will never see the end.

As for strategies, the mini-boss that looks like flame is usually a lot easier if you melee him as he doesn't seem to shoot when you are close. The mini-boss that looks like shiny gold did not seem to be easier with melee and I think he shot me still. I am hoping now that I have found the phantasm mines I can start being a bit more devious. I'm glad that those recharge really quickly. I was a bit disappointed that eventually they self destruct though. I would still like to see their health toned down or getting better XP / loot from them.

Overall the loot drops are disappointing unless I get a skill. I don't remember that last time I used a armor or weapons from a drop. For comparison, I seem to recall getting really useful items from boss kills in diablo 2.

:P if i'm honest, i've neveer ever been one shotted through a wall, but I have been hit for half my health. and bosses still shoot you if you melee them... technically range is easier because you can dodge them. And what's this about phantasms? I've hardly ever used those :P used to use adrenal rush + those to clear out guys surrounding me on the lower levels. I really can't wait for future updates, hopefully it gets expanded somehow? or the 2 other pillars get easier.

I'll have to disagree with you and side with LostLegend in the lack of testing thing.

Ryan is one man with a "real" job and a family, how the hell in a huge game like this he would have enough time to test it properly? Maybe if the game was some casual fluffy cutie bird casual runner ;)

Even major franchises developed by entire game companies (e.g., Fallout New Vegas, BGOTY - Bugged Game of the Year) release titles with lots of glitches and all sorts of error, how wouldn't a one-man-work like Mission Europa not have some issues?

I think this is a wonderful game, possibly the one iOS game I spent more time playing, can't recommend it enough, but it evidently has issues. The bad English, unbalanced enemies, crashes, to name a few. Loving the game also means we should point its flaws so that Ryan can correct them if possible. We're unofficial testers of it :cool:

As I said on your blog, you've got yourself a sale with the price drop :) Make sure to edit this thread title to reflect the sale so more people know, especially considering it's regularly bumped to the first page from all the discussion.

Hmm... price drop to $6.99. Well, finally convinced me to give this one a purchase now that it's the cost of a higher tier Gameloft game. Add to the fact that I've been interested for a while.

Question, how do I sign up to receive the free gifts? ;)

Go to the red portal in Port 0037. You should be able to set your player name there (needs to be unique from other players) and once that is done you can get mail. Check your character's stats in the menu and it should have your chosen name there, don't rely on what the arena says (at least for now).

Bug found :/

2 Doomsday gifts
I have level 2 doomsday already

I combine the 2 doomsday gifts for a level 1.5 Doomsday
I combine the 1.5 with level 2
I get level 2.5

If I had combined the level 2 with a level 1, I would have level 2.5 and combining with another level 1 gives me level 3.

:/ :/ :/ :/

I had this happen with my 1.5 doomsday from Doom. I couldn't actually do them separately first though since it was a 1.5 doosmday. I'm not sure if it is a bug or intentional though.

05-22-2011, 11:50 PM

Hey all working my butt off... But combining does not = 1 + 1 = 2.
Each point is 0.25 towards the new one if I remember right...I would have to look at the code to see how it combines again... It is not a 1+1 . but a staggered increase... I did that to keep the Arena playable.

1 + 1 = 1.5

The problem is when you combine two skills that are both upgraded. Let's say I have a 1.5 skill and someone sends me another 1.5 of the same type. What I end up with after combining is a 2.0 skill, while it seems that it should be a 2.5 as it would be if I had all four skills and combined them separately.

1 + 1 = 1.5
1.5 + 1 = 2.0
2.0 + 1 = 2.5

Hope that explains the problem.

Does anyone know if there is someway to survive the Death Kite on Floor 8 at a relatively early character, and now the Murderer on Floor 21? I am level 24, and it is a one hit kill.. Is that supposed to be happening? The same thing happened with the Death Kite on Floor 8 and level 12 or 13 - again one hit one kill...Go to the store and upgrade your armor. If the store doesn't show better armor, back away and approach the store again. Keep doing that until *all* your armor matches your level. You can also look for a weapon that you can shoot from a distance, even if you're a melee fighter. Finally, you can sneak up on the Death Kite, drop a Doomsday before it notices you, and then run away like a little girl. That's my "go-to" strategy :D.

I think I am about done with ME, not content-wise, but play-wise. Really great game overall and the 20ish hours I put in were overall fun, but I have too many other games to play. I think that the bugs killed the game for a lot of people; honestly a game should not crash as often as ME would sometimes crash, even with the newest patch. The graphics didn't bother me, but I know some people were put off by the style. There were a lot of aspects that didn't really make sense to new players too I think, such as what the stats really did when gaining levels and what the weapon/armor meant. I think if people didn't grow up playing PC games like this it may have been a hard transition (or sell) for them as well.

gunxsword

06-02-2011, 04:45 AM

I 'tried' to get back into ME today, but I just couldn't any further commitment to it. It's not the graphics (I don't dislike it), the sound/music is good, gameplay is engaging but the controls & overall game balances started to glare in my face (after playing other high polish games).

I agree, this game needs some balance tweaking (death kites and murderers most urgently) but other than that, its a lot of fun.
I played a couple of nights ago, and its my opinion if that this game were to be updated with more balance fixes (make it easier if in doubt) then I'd be returning for several more hours! (already on 18)

Well, I can see that, but when the game crashes and you forgot to save recently it can be pretty frustrating. I now save about every 10 minutes, but there was at least one time I did lose some progress. Personally I haven't had too many balance issues as I snipe everything from far away except bosses since they move so fast. It takes me a long time to get through the levels, but it has also made the game less frustrating.

I think the game autosaves stuff you do except level progression - that's gotta be done manually.

I would just like some new updates and fixes. I got my $10 worth, but I just couldn't go on any more. Part of it was the bugs, but the game became a bit repetitive with basically the same missions on each level. Maybe put in a "casual" or "easy" setting so it will be more accessible to a wider audience too. At this point I would probably use it too.

I'm level 8 now heh, doubt you'd want to pvp with me. I cant find a pvp match at all, and there's a lot of cool armor there.... I'm on right now regardless. By goodies I sort of meant skills haha, I have a good amount of credits, just bought my first fire pistol for 3500 good condition. :)

I bought this game way back when and couldn't find a PVP match then. Not a terrible loss, I guess, as I don't much care for multiplayer anyways.

Suppose I should get back into this game, I got to level 12 I think before I kind of got taken away with other games.

Oh that sucks. This game is great though, level 10 now. Man the pvp armor looks sick, but no ones on.... I'm on floor 8 and it's getting a little difficult but not too bad. I heard level 9 is really hard. Oh and thanks for the skills awesome, the adrenaline rush one looks really good:)

The game (Collector's Ed.) keeps on crashing on my iPad 1. Any chance for a fix anytime soon?

It crashes occasionally on my iPod touch 4g. Is it completely unplayable?

We'll, it's not completely unplayable. But it seems to be crashing pretty regularly, and I don't like nervously saving every fifteen seconds.

Necro bump!

Anyone still play this? Have the main crashing issues been resolved that plagued the release? I really really loved the game, but it didn't catch on it doesn't seem...

How's the arena community? Still relatively active?

Thanks :)

I dunno, I actually haven't played the game for long time to be honest. When last i played (which was after the last update...i think) there was still some minor crashing but it wasn't as bad when it was first released. I would think that the arena would be pretty quiet, though i can't say for sure. Sadly it seems that the game did not catch on and many people shelved it.

Like 5 months ago I was on lvl 50 (or something like that) when I had to free some space on my iPhone for a really big app, so Mission Europa and a couple of other games had to be deleted. When I installed it back a couple of days ago my character was gone… I thought that because I’ve registered my nickname on the server the save file would be there too…:( My games backlog is huge now so I don’t have time to play it all over again.
But I have to say that Mission Europa is one of the best iOS rpg games I’ve played. Really worth every penny. Despite that it is a bit rough around the edges here and there, the gaming experience is really great. As far as I can remember there was some crashing on my 3GS, but nothing game breaking – save system is working well here. When I was checking the arena a couple of months ago it was rather quiet, so it is probably the same now. I’ll be getting an iPad in a nearby future so I’m looking forward to playing this little baby on a bigger screen.

Watched the "tutorial vid" you had made, and insta bought the CE. Think i've seen a vid of this a few years back? didnt put it to memory then since i didnt own an iOS device at that time.

Damn, just lost all of my progress during some stupid iOS sync error. Months of progress, an almost finished game, and all of the early mailout bonuses collected since purchasing the game Day-1.

So I dont wanna revive an old thread o,o, but I just picked up the Collector edition and am currently stuck on level 9. I invested about 5 hours into it and have a set of saintly/angelic armor which I created from schematics found in shops/picked up, so armor isn't a problem.

I can get through the level just fine, but when I get to the boss at level 9, I get killed in one shot the instant I see him. He doesn't fire normal bullets like other bosses, he shoots a lightning bolt which immediately kills me.

Also, is the multiplayer community dead? :(

It's all in the skills (as in abilities). It's been a while since I've played, but I'm pretty sure there's a shield skill that really helps. Also, use skills that travel long distances and go through walls, and fire them in his direction. A lot of the bosses are almost puzzle-like, and once you know how to beat them, it's fairly easy.

And yes, the multiplayer is probably dead by this point.

You were right! Just killed the lv 9 boss at level 9. He kept shooting lightning through the walls, but I was able to block most of them. I had to keep healing after each hit though bc it dealt 90% of my health away.

I had to place down the tower from the skill that shoots the hungry skulls. I just sniped him after that for about three minutes and bam :D
