Title: Alien Breed Tower Assault
Post by: ikir on April 28, 2003, 08:38:41 PM

Am i wrong, or ABTA is really hard to play?

Alien and rotots on first level are fast and strong  :-(

Probably i am stupid, right? :-x

The only levels I found difficult were the last 3 or 4 (I can't remember).  I liked that you could try different ways to get to the end.

But I prefer AB 92 :-D

Indeed ABTA has a proper difficulty level, might take some time before
you finish it, but it is quite possible. I found a way through that I
eventually could play almost blindfolded, but any other way I have
tried has been too difficult so far. But sadly my bastard joypad died
before me, so no more ABTA on my CD32.. Oh wait, someone stole my ABTA
CD anyway. Respect for the bastards excellent taste in games. :)

I mastered ABTA! It was in 1997 or 1998.
I played that game a lot. I had map that I
made then. It containd all the ways through
the game! I was total fanatic then! I stil
remember there was combination of paths with
lots of money, so I could buy best weapon!

That were the times! :-D

Hoya!

I think you are all a bit confused on this one... :-)

The game Ikir is talking is not Alien Breed Tower Assault but Alien Breed 2 which IS impossible to play because of its HUGEEEEEE difficulty!
That is really too bad for it is a brilliant game; I wonder what Team 17 were thiinking about when they created it... Even with lots of cheat modes, it is still too hard... :-(

Be funky

Nonono MAD AB2 is not impossible!

I managed to complete it and I usually suck at completing games.

AB3D2 on the other hand, there I got stuck pretty early on and never played it again because I was so angry. Quite a huge bunch of cash down the drain there. Couldn't get the level editor to work either until the friendly guys at Team 17 sent me a disk with a patch.  :-)
