Version 4.1.4 has been released. As you can see above, you can now see what boosts your opponent is using. Not something that I was clamoring for, but I suppose it is a nice feature (see graphic below).

Don't quite understand the Facebook statement - sounds like something has been broken in this release and will get fixed in 4.1.5? That doesn't sound like very good engineering. Maybe somebody can explain what SDK deprecation is. After the first game, I felt like deprecating on Z2! After the upgrade, all I could see in the first vs. game was a blank screen of the terrain for 2 1/2 minutes (see graphic below)

| Blank view of terrain for first game on 4.1.4 - really gave a good first impression |
It looks like this upgrade is not going as smooth as hoped. See MSWM facebook comment below. For such a lousy little upgrade, Z2 is sure spreading some ill-will. Come-on guys.

ReplyDeleteI really want metalstorm to have:
ReplyDeleteVersus Mode - up to 4 players; team choosing options, etc. ability to 1v3, 2v2, free for all, etc.
Campaign Mode - more missions and ability to bring real time human player as wingman.
Survival Mode - up to 4 players to really get deep into waves.
Ability to send messages; a social network, kind of.
Ability to paint and design planes. Stats still determined by Z2. 4 coins per paint scheme. 2 coins to unlock another slot for paint scheme.
More achievements
New UI interface.
Offline mode.
Too much to ask for... :(
Sorry, but It seems that z2 is deaf to feedback so instead, they keep releasing better and better planes.
DeleteBenjamin you are spot on! MSW is falling behind slowly on other games available... z2 should get their shhh out of their ears.
Deleteyes i have thought of every one of those things and would love to see any of them
DeleteI gave Z2 a lot off suggestion but they never read or reply. My latest one is a agility class that is based on SU-34 agility class unlocks at lv55
ReplyDeleteStats:
+12 Missile Reload
+10 Evasion
+14 Agility
+12 Speed
Also thinking of
F-5 agility class
Stats:
+12 Agility
+3 energy regen
+10 Energy
+14 Speed
Note:
Energy: how much energy the plane can store.
Energy regen: How fast the energy fills up
Your SU34 is far over-powered- same evasion as iron fang, but better speed, and agility. Then the best-in-class missile reload? Really? Although the F5 is great, I don't think new planes should be z2's first priority- as if the lags aren't long enough...
DeletePeople aren't switching to SGAS because this game doesn't have enough planes as far as i am concerned, so stop being selfish
Yes but Iron fang sucks as hell.
Deletethen why did z2 decide to re-release the iron fang if it was a bad plane? i fly the iron fang, and it's amazing- maybe you just don't have the skills to fly it, and therefor want better planes- your suggestions are nothing but selfish
DeleteYea, I agree with MICHAEL. The iron fang isn't that bad. It's pretty good. It feels just as maneuverable as my spectre.. Low on energy though.
DeleteThe airframe for your first idea should be a Mig-1.44 Flatpack instead of Su-34. Just my opinion
DeleteI used an un upgraded d21 SR 580 against SR 14k and iron fang with lancers. I used stock weps. I tied
Deleteso what, I tied a green eagle pilot who had meteors, and i only had a wraith+standard issue.
Delete-(Night Fury)-
Nice... But I really prefer Agility and Energy over anything else in Agility class.
ReplyDeleteIf you saw my previous proposal:
(Modeled after the Saab Gripen or possibly Draken.. Or a better, more accurately modeled F-22 w/ thrust vectoring nozzles that move, gun port that opens, missile bays that work, camo paint scheme..)
Agility + 15%,
Energy +16%
Damage +10%
Armor +10%
This could be a game changer... It should be 250 coins just for these stats...
Make it
Delete+13 Agility
+8 Armour
+15 Energy
+10 Damage
Or subtract 3 from damage and add 2 to agility. And 1 to Energy.
DeleteAgility +15%
Energy + 16%
Armor + 8%
Damage +7%
Change the order to make it look good
Delete+7 Damage
+15 Agility
+8 Armour
+16 Energy
Iron fang sucks because it has no agility bonus. Flipping Cyclops can challenge iron gang in agility.
ReplyDeleteI bought it for one reason, the f***ing awesome artwork.
DeleteRemember what happened to cyclops because it had no extra damage bonus? Well it sucks as people say
ReplyDeleteDamage is the most important for weapon class as Agility is most important for agility class.
Since agility is so important for agility class, and I win so much in my iron fang, are you saying I am an ace pilot?
DeleteWell if you can beat 40K SR guys flying Sky Demon with bisnovals and Zeus with ur iron fang using credit weapons then proudly call yourself an ace
DeleteI know the trick can you tell us the stats for FireFly?
ReplyDeleteNo tricks will work with Firefly since it's not listed in the game settings at all.
DeleteAnyway, it's almost Friday, which is the time Z2Live usually update the game settings for MS:W. Just be patient.
DeleteToday is Thursday so let's see tommorow
ReplyDeleteYep can't wait... ;)
DeleteZ2Live screwed up again, My Sparrow and Sky Demon is missing from hangar! If you bought any of those, check your hangar now.
Deletehahahaha....I just spent 30 secs looking at the sky with a little white box flying around in it...killed the app.
ReplyDeleteI guess that player hadn't upgraded yet. I hope it didn't count against me as it was some bitchno spammer in a sparrow. Had a avatar that I see quite often with what I believe are Asian characters in their handle.
OFFLINE MODE DEFINATLY!!!!! if Z2Live did this I would fall in love
ReplyDeleteSomething ODD just happened. Went to try and REMOVE the free missile reload and while that one remained, it gave me lock speed for FREE, so I got 2 boosts for free...
ReplyDeleteI have a question though. Is there anyway to remove your free boost?
I got the free missile reload boost and it felt like it slowed down the reload on my Maurader?????
yes, if you tap on the boost icon, it will bring up the boosts that you have, and all you have to do is x the boost.
Delete-(Night Fury)-
I see the 'X' if I bring up the boost screen and add a boost...but if it is a previously added boost, there is no 'X'.
Delete1) Click on boosts
2) Select free 'lock speed' boost.
3) Play a game.
4) Return to the main menu
5) Return to the boost screen.
I want to remove the free one at this point because it SUCKS...
There is no 'X' on the one I previously selected...I want to get rid of it. I killed the app, but it's still there.
Thanks!
So excited tournaments are coming!!
ReplyDeletethey are?
ReplyDeletethey are?
ReplyDeleteAccording to their twitter account, they are working out the details now.
ReplyDeleteAnd as I was about to level up I noticed now I'm maxed out on level 45 again z2l u suck oh just as well I'll be gone for 11 weeks.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know what plane I should buy? I am not very good at this game, and all the planes I buy that are the best end up being a waist of coins! What plane should I get?
ReplyDeleteFirst; what is your class? Do you prefer Agility, Weapons, or Defense?
DeleteSecond: study the pros and cons of each class.
Third: contemplate on what kind of stats on each plane do you want. (ex.agility,damage,armor,energy,lock speed, etc.)
Fourth: answer these questions and I can help you further decide. ;)
Well let's see, I seem to get blown up in every class. I keep going back and fourth between Weapons class and Agility class. I like fast Weapons class so I do not get hit all the time. And I like Agility with some Armor. I like how fast and agile Agility class is, and I like how Weapons has good Weapons upgrades. When ever I start a match I just swipe towards the red arrow. Which always ends up in BOOM! I have no strategy. So fast Weapons class, and Agility that is fast and has good armor.:)
DeleteYou should go for either the sky demon or th wasp. Sky demon is very fast weapons class plane, but it costs 205 blue coins and it unlocks at level 50. If you want the wasp, you'll have to wait for it to be rereleased.
DeleteOn another note, generally; people say that the reaper is the best for agility, and the red widow is the best for weapons. That's from what I've noticed. The reaper is available at level 18 I think, and has armor, damage, agility and speed. That might suit you. The red widow is a fairly agile weapons class plane that rivals the stats of the Hawken, which is also considered to be pretty good. Both hooves are good, but I would prefer the reaper, because it has a little of everything.
Choices, not hooves... -_- spell check these days...
DeleteOk, thank you!:)
DeleteIf you can't fly a fully upgraded c101, you can't fly a reaper-so don't waste your coins. See the missile dodging page on this site for tips, and try holding down the decelerate button once into a circle-fight, as a slower plane, is also a more agile one. Try accelerating and decelerating whilst in combat; and if you master these tips, you will become somewhat decent.
