Bazooka, Grenade and some other weapons should have their original damage base. I've noticed that they were lowered in this app.
Besides that 3 minuts are insuficient, the fact these weapons were made weaker makes it even more harder to kill an enemy worm.

The have indeed been lowered to 30hp. This was a difficult decision to make, but stats have shown that in doing that players are using the bazooka & grenades less and are experimenting with all the other weapons in the game.
3 minute games will be staying. However, we might be adding in something extra to the game which you might enjoy! ;)

Players won't stop looking for other weapons if Bazooka, Grenade and Fire Punch have their damage base raise up to normal.
Noticed also that even powerful weapons like Holy-Hand Grenade and Air Strike had their damage base lowered.
In fact, all the weapons had their damage base lowered. So, a weapon that was better than other is still better than this other, but both weaker than its original. Now, it just takes more long to kill a worm.

I am consistently killing all the worms of my opponents in a single battle... So beware mwahahahaha

Brunu, our designers have been working very hard looking at the weapons and balancing them to make them perfect for the social games market. We have statistics showing that if we increase the bazooka & grenades, the other weapons don't get used anywhere near as much!
We are going to be constantly adding new weapons to the game, so if there's something that isn't in that you'd like to see, you might see them further down the line. This also goes with new weapons like you saw in the Halloween event!

So, I think I don't need to expect any super weapon like Concrete Donkey or Armageddon in this app...

We absolutely want to bring the greatest classic Worms weapons to the game! They will be hard to come by, but there's no reason why we won't be adding them! :)
