Title: Bloons Tower Defence 5
Post by: Mr Pwnage on December 20, 2011, 04:35:13 PM
The fifth in the series of the best flash game in existence is here! I've been a huge fan of all the prior games and can't wait to give this one a try.

What are everyone's general strategies for winning, out of curiosity?

My strategy is putting Tack Shooters and Freeze Towers at the center of path arcs, (where the Bloons go around) Super Monkeys in a general area, put Snipers in the corners of the screen along with others of infinite range, and growing a Bloonberry bush at the end of the path on turn 1. So far it gets me to turn ~80 on beginner maps, and ~70 on intermediate maps. Haven't tried the advanced maps yet. (btw I use this strategy for Bloons TD in general)

I only use two towers. I have 1 sniper tower, and for the rest of the 85 rounds I use apprentice monkeys. Apprentice monkeys with there Dragon's Breath upgrade can pop bloons just as fast as a super monkey with the laser blasts upgrade. As well as being able to pop camo and lead bloons, they make for a cheaper and more effective alternative to super monkeys. Only disadvantage is they don't get range upgrades. But there initial range is good anyway, and they rarely let anything get past them.

Oh and as far as moabs go? It's almost as if moabs don't exist. They die that quickly with enough setup at the start.

I do something similar. I have several MOAB Maulers at the entrance(s), several of which have the Assassin ability, Arctic Wind Ice Towers and Glaive Lords at turns, and tons of Apprentice Monkeys with Fireball and Lightning Bolt upgrades. I use a few other towers sparingly.

I played Bloons Tower Defence 3 a LOT a few years back. Then BTD4 was such a deception to me...

Glad you made me aware of BTD5 which makes up for the bad BTD4.

My strategy? two snipers with full first path upgrades, in the corner where they aren't disruptive, a tack shooter, and two super monkeys upgraded to level 3 on the 1st path. I start out with just a tack shooter around a bend, and save money and keep buying the first upgrades until level 3, then I work on placing other stuff. I've also learned, it is best to not have anything but your snipers able to hit right at the start, otherwise they're usefulness goes down a TON. If you shoot a ceramic with one of the upgraded snipers, it's GONE, if other towers break them, you have a shit ton of yellows.

This game is probably the best in the series. I don't really have a certain strategy, I try not to limit myself to what towers I use. But I do start out with the dart throwing monkeys and a tack shooter. Then I add more dart monkeys, get a few monkey apprentices, a bomb tower... Then I pretty much just add in whatever I need for certain waves.
