the only thing i hate about this event is the idea of it, It's wild to me that a group of people thought that it would be a good idea to face a pair of hands that get stunned by light without having eyes. I don't recall seeing hands anywhere in the storyline unless umbra somehow faced the narrator's hands which makes no sense. They know how terrible the event is aswell because they had to lock the server for 2 and a half days. I'd rather the event end off in act 2. It's also stupid that they called this their best event yet. It's a real punch in the face and this paragraph isn't even talking about the horrible balancing and glitches that have been going on. The best way to describe it is a school assignment that you procrastinated on till the last night. Im hoping this this is some extra late april fools joke or what they orginally had planned was wiped off the face of the earth and had to be replaced as a back up plan till they get the main one back.
I don't understand why the devs made Act 3 with no cutscenes, no map changing. Literally just the Solar Theater with some background. It barely has story to it. We went from the Act 2 story to literally the Narrator destryoing the theater. The map is literally defend the center with paths. Also, Act 3 can be insanely better if we actually fought the Narrator instead of his pair of hands.
its sad because the old updates used to be bangers, time and effort clearly went into them and they were well thought out. Now we got violent night and this.
Since elite asks “why is this beam of light hitting the other hand when I’m not even aiming at it”, as I’ve stated before on an eggcrypted video, For those who haven’t found out yet, the hands aren’t damaged by aiming the light at them, they take damage just from the light being on when the hand is in front of that certain light, u can just turn on a light while the hand is in front of it then focus on ur commanders or soldiers whatever u have going on without needing to focus on aiming the light at a hand
@@Lego7215robloxit only does dmg to the boss But if u aim at enemies they will be confused and walk backwards just like how jester's confusion bomb do
this even was specifically made to be as grindable as possible, anyway we saw the degredation of cquality from act 1 to 3, act.1 had cutscenes and lotta lore, +voice acting, act 2 got 1 cutscene and some lore, act 3 has no cutscenes, no context, nor explanation, nor any lore, just less waves, no time between waves, and very weak bosses, ffs were fighting hands not even the narrator. just an update to generate playtime tbh.
I genuinely dont understand what happened in the time from Act-2 to 3. It genuinely does feel like they made this in under a week because they were far too ambitious with what they WANTED to create and had already promised to update so they scrapped it. Its all unprofessional. No New gamemode. No cutscenes explaining how we even got here. No Voice acting. This act was DEFINITELY not tested for real. No new quests. The list goes on its honestly so disappointing. They really should of never put a date on this event.
This event was like a force for dev rather than wanted to the reason is comunity keep beg saying the game is dry when the devs literally work hard behind the scenes the fact that comunity getting mad over a week delay and say is not like what they promised MF it is they delay it by a week and add another god damn tower instead of 1 yet they still complain im sick of the tds comunity is just gonna get more and more toxic
@@Blue_gamingHD"worked hard"??? Look at the other events they made and compare this to the others. I also defended the devs when they got hate for no reason, but mf they had 10 months and bring us this thing that looks like it's made in a week
@@averageslapbattlesplayer200 mf if u really compare it there a cutscene a variety of unique skin 2 new event towers a 1 unique map a brand new mechanic
the hands are like master and crazy hand from smash bros they attack similarly and are the same overall gimmick THEY EVEN HAVE THE SAME LAUGH BUT THE TDS LAUGH IS JUST EDITED FROM SMASH BROTHERS
One of the biggest problems nobody talks about: The event doesn’t incentivize multiplayer. Seriously, I tried many times playing with randoms on act 1, but I ultimately won in a solo. I tried doing a trio on act 2, but I won second try being in a duo. And I spent hours trying to do act 3 with 3 other players, but it was ultimately better for me to just solo it. Now let’s look at the Frost Invasion Event. You get the SAME BENEFITS wether you’re in a solo, or a full mega server. So you’re practically INCENTIVIZED to play with a full server. Yeah, you COULD solo it with the right towers, but you’re better off being in a full server. I don’t know about you, but I don’t want an event that’s harder than Polluted Wastelands if you’re in a quad, and has the difficulty of fallen if you solo it.
wouldve been interesting if this map was changed a little and during the halfway mark there would be a cutscene where umbra destroys the entire map, bringing the DTC format back partway and you have to rebuild the map if you want cliffs but alas, this is tds and from what we've learned before, they do not listen to QA testers
They legit could have hired you and me (I had a whole conversation in my mind of how act 3 will bring back act 1 and act 2 enemies but stronger on the map) It's pretty long I don't want to say but yeah We could have cooked better than the devs who were hired and payed money to do this
3:14 Its to force enemies to take a longer path and thus give you more time to attack. Additionally, double gates on the same road does not necessarily mean it is there to block those specific enemies. There is a crossroad there, where other enemies can come in through. That’s the whole point of the gates.
I didn't notice this before, but did you know the right hand (maybe the left hand I don't know) KILLS YOUR TOWERS!? He legit killed two of my commanders and I couldn't chain, which means its the first boss SINCE RAIDER BOSS that can actually KILL TOWERS.
Rn is a crucial time where communication with the community is needed. The opportunity is here and they need to seize it. But seeing as how the last nerf was a shadow update and they haven’t even responded to QA testers, it just shows they are cowards and are just scared of complaints from the community. It’s a sad way to end such an anticipated event, and it’s prob the reason why they locked down discord for so long
One of the devs called me a pessimist because I asked why act 3 used to be impossible. Like dude if you are gonna hype this event up so much and make it impossible, then why even release it. And now it’s brain dead easy
act 3 is easy and the tower you get as a reward is insane.... i think instead of nerfing the jester the devs should make the act actually HARD, but not impossible.
I have a few buff ideas: - more enemies, but passive income is active (a little less from normal games, still no farms) -Goes to wave 18 instead of 14 - add a boss which travels to centre, maybe a weaker version of the umbra or the narrator (lower hp for shorter map) - maybe make a map shift mechanic? (Probably not) - MAKE THE JESTER AN ENEMY
Act 1 - Some epic umbra and penumbra backstory with a very cool cutscene and voice acting! Act 2 - WHERE'S UMBRA? oh okay jack o' bot back story its good it's fine. Act 3 - Narrator suddenly becomes mad and he spammed a bunch of sock puppet (he have been preparing it since trick or treat town).
I think the part that I'm mostly upset about is they had an amazing plot to the story, and it all went to waste... they never conveyed the plot any further the cutscenes in act 1 were what I thought great.
Ight since elite doesn’t understand the story of the event i will explain it, basically the player (us) head to a random cinema hosted by some narrator guy and he puts on a show for us in the form of acts, which recaps the early stage of before and after the umbra became, a god i guess. Act 1 showing before and act 2 showing the after, seeing umbra was behind the attacks of 2019 and the infamous 2020 halloween event, failing to get the cube and moving on to world domination a year later in the form of a solar eclipse, been there done that so the player wants to leave and give a bad review to the “narrators” cinema on google, Ofc narrator cant allow that so act3 happens. And thats it lol, feel free to say “🤓” or “wikia colours wanna be below in replies”
They even said on the discord in balancing feedback, “idk who needs to hear this but the hands were meant to be the final boss from the start.” But there was no lead up or any hints whatever to the hands anywhere.
@@devilbowser253 'Hey guys, maybe you can have a final fight with the narrator? Yknow he's able to change maps and it will definitely hype up for a better boss fight than umbra? Well, let me tell you that it was fake and now have these 2 big hands so Nintendo dmca the game!!!'
Guys something happend in this update but archer does no damage What am saying is that if you got a level 3+ archers do NO DAMAGE EVEN THE BURN DOESNT DO DAMAGE I cant tell if it’s just me but if someone that owns archer please test it and tell me if it’s just me or the archer tower is bugged.
From the lore, I have gathed the "narrorator" worked on the order Halloween events to get to his rank of power now. So there for in act 3 he doesn't want you to ruin his work.
I noticed this too I just felt like the acts degraded in quality such as (using old skins in the crate AHEM GRAVEYARD FARM) and even though the event looks like its fun and cool its just a multilane map to the center of a map with a few gates with spotlights that do damage THATS IT. I feel like even though this event was wanted for a long time, it just feels like its terrible with necromancer going from a battle pass event tower to a GEM tower that made it avalible to anybody who used a hardcore grinding strat. and overall the general issues with this event is crazy (dont worry there are upsides like the BP skins are cool and jester is a well made tower)
tds players: places towers and upgrades them forgets about them then realizes they exist and upgrades them and forget they exist again also i have names for actors actor 1 (smol actor) actor 2 (kinda look like actor 1 but big) actor 3 (big boi with 2000 health)
it took me and a squad all with accels, some with sledgers and good coordination and COA chaining to beat this event, and they just made it as easy as a walk in the park
It would be cooler if every round the hands came down and stunned some towers, and in wave 10 umbra comes to get the cube but the director piches her or sum
TDS Idea:Four people enter a tds round but instead they are split up and each have their own enemies and maps to defend, One will need air defense other will be Camo defense crowd defense and finally boss defense.After all the rounds all the players get put in the same lane and they have to defend the hard boss that shoots at the base(they share the same amount of base hp) and starts rushing at the base for 3 seconds.The rewards can be 1000 gold and a free tower that is good in all of those categories (crowd control, hidden detection,air defense, boss dps)
How to beat act 3: get golden soldier, pyro, commander and DJ. Then spam down 15 golden soldiers and lvl them up one by one then put a DJ lvl 3 and save up for more soldiers. When you have max placement limit and no supports sell 3 soldiers to put down a medic and 2 max or lvl 3 pyros when the hands come out spot the light to them and get ready to use Ur commanders and medic and boom you got Ur self a free victory
@@TordBot69 hey i recognize u. Maybe lunar eclipse cuz this was a weird thing that mostly was solar eclipse related, (if it was lunar I think we would have seen it but rn there’s no point in the “lunar” inside of lunar overture)
Huh... and to think golden soldier was the one tower I didn't want but wound up getting. I guess it is powerful since it apparently has flight detection. Either way I now want to hastily get home before they patch it so I can win. I don't really care for difficulty I just want the Jester and maybe a UGC.
We need an act 4 and actually finish umbras lorn insted of just putting a few cut scenes on one night then the next one little one and nothing about her after that
@@devilbowser253they tried yk what the comunity respond ? Just a complain it always a complain take a look at necro 1.8k gems and on sale in halloween only ppl complain
People before the nerf of act 3: "THIS GAME IS TRASH, THE GAMEPLAY IS SO BAD AND HARD!" People after the nerf of act 3: "THIS GAME IS TRASH, THE GAMEPLAY IS TOO EASY EZ EZ EZ THIS MODE IS WAY TOO EASY ATLEAST MAKE IT MORE HARDER" like bro, what do you guys want from Below?, we asked for a nerf right?, but when we got it, we are still not grateful, Below is trying his best to make his game best guys don't pressure him they and his team worked hard on this event so atleast let's be grateful?
thats cuz it is defend the center, just different also the point of the gates is to make the path longer and close off the amount of paths you have to defend the center from 5 > 3
ironically the ugc didnt even work properly. One random guy i was playing with went "bro i won 13 time already and it's still not giving me the ugc" i even won (YES IT WAS IN STOCK, I CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES) and i didnt get anything
I don’t think act 3 deserves all the hate it’s better than nothing and the devs are prob like crying or something from all this hate I can’t imagine they’re happy after hearing that everyone hates this event that they took a while to make give the devs some respect atleast it gives a good tower and is a new gamemode sure it was bad but chill out it wasn’t the worst I want you to try making building and designing all of this it’s pretty hard to make something all the players would like so basically what I’m saying is cut them some slack it’s better than the meta verse champions
Tbh, do they even know how to balance gameplay??? Either it’s impossibly hard, or molten mode. The story also doesn’t make sense anymore. How did we get here???? What did we do to make the narrator angry! I thought we did everything he told us to??? Why was the purple-code guy the statue for act 3 but then they changed it to narrator??? Narrator is the narrator from trick or threat town, but was was he even planning??????!????? None of it makes sense. The map-changing was a unique feature with a lot of story-telling potential in that you’d be able to switch locations, but then they changed it to defend the center with paths..
This really is the most anticlimactic grand finale, they had a super cool idea of switching maps half way, but they decided to do a random boring defend the center without any interesting enemies or even a interesting boss, act 1 and 2 where great but this is just hot flaming rushed garbage
honestly kind of happy that my account got banned and lost all of my golden skins 1.5 years ago because wow tds looks so mid now honestly the game was best before hardcore and when golden titan was still a thing
My friends came up with a strategy a few hours after the freezer glitch was patched. We beat the event but got no hat, we beat the event when it was impossible and got nothing for it.
One thing i wanna ask people is if they've had their golden skin disappear. I know sounds crazy but I vividly remember having golden soldier. I told my friend I had it I had screenshots of me getting it. Then I quit for a few months because TDS got stale and I lost it. It said I never got the golden skin even though I literally did. BTW I'm just asking is the event beatable with golden scouts cuz I have that
I just did with soldier and another friend , I have g soldier and my friend had soldier, He brought dj and i brought commander, Just spam level 0 GOLDEN soldiers at start and let your friend place level 2 soldiers and after a few waves when you start getting lots of money place 2 commanders diagonally far away and just use their ability at level 2, Get all soldiers level 2 and then max dj and start maxing all soldiers and ggs
