Task system and prizes - hard to stock up

[luisromano]

It had been told in another thread down there about some problems with the tasks, but today, when I finished the xmas tasks, my older tasks came up again.
After finalizing them, new ones just came up after my reinforcements fill up. the other thing I want to tell is that just the 'sergeant worm' is being shown, and now, for the third consecutive time [after doing the tasks to get new ones], the professor with the sulk and bragging tasks...
Moreover, I haven't received any task of the 'style worm' since halloween ;/
Another thing I've noticed is that the prizes for doing the tasks are becoming a little low than the necessary for doing it...making it a little bit hard to accomplish the tasks and stock up after this!

That's normal, when new theme shows up, it's coming with new tasks that currently disable all the tasks you had before update, and when you finish theme tasks, your old tasks are back.. That's not a bug or a problem.

And when they show up again, when you finish them, new few ones will came instantly, but only a few, later new tasks will be coming for every few hours or something..

And prizes are ok, after finishing xmass tasks that ate my coins, im started to earning large again, currently @ 15k coins.. Style worm is not there which suck, but other tasks are fine too and kinda related since most are to play several with your friends, kill certain amount of worms and kill some worms with certain weapon, so just play those several games with a friend who can be offline, try to kill as many worms as possible and use weapon that one of the tasks is asking you to use. You will be finishing most tasks spending one full reinforcements bar, and till it gets full again you will gain new ones, so at last for me its a nicely balanced cycle that is even bit too much in advance of player!

I couldn't make myself clear =P
I know that the task cycle is this, the new tasks came in then, when you finish them, the older ones came! My point was, there were only the 'sergeant' tasks, and the professor shown up three consecutive times [I finish his brag/sulk task, win the prize and he appears again!]
The other thing is about waiting for new tasks..I was with 12 reinforcements, I need to wait until it refill to the max [19 reinf] to appear a new task, a guess what: the two tasks from professor where there too, again!
I mean, they are great tasks and maybe you're right about the prizes being consistent with what are told, but I think that winning a single banana bomb for 'killing 12 worms with cluster bomb' is a quite awkward, [better throw then into the water than to damage 30~40, luckily] ;/

The only shame is that I'm not capable of stockin' up like I did in halloween..I must choose one of the special weapons to save, and the other ones [conventional ones] are left behind, decreasing in number ;//

My online gaming was not that good...everytime the game drops and I only can play with offline bots ;//
And last week I was having some trouble too, the game was not loading the battle, it was stucking at the globe screen, needing to refresh the page several times before having some luck with a single game =/
I'm not a ordinary player, I know how to make some strategy to get some money and weapons =P
I'm just saying that the game changed, and they are asking more than they are giving in the tasks =P
making me to play several battles to earn what I was used to earn playing one or two matches...It makes me to spend more, but play more as well =P
Just though it could be better with some new tasks and with the style worm tasks again,,earning cash is always good! =P

Other thing that I remembered, my achievements are almost filled...it was good to have some new to get! =P

When you finish all tasks, form my experience, you have to wait for some time, like 1 hour or more for new to show up.. Full reinforcements are not condition.
Also, task rewards are bit too random, you can get 1 cluster bomb for killing 20 worms and 5 banana's for.. killing 2 with dynamite, its completely random, so don't let it bother you, tho I also hope it will change :)
And about stocking up, well I most of the time have 2 bananas, 1 hgg and 1 dynamite in my inventory, from the other side I got 30 of each winter bazookas and grenades and few of other things as cluster, mine, etc. :) And I use those expensive ones only when im 95% sure that they will do the job :) Its about tactics you play, terrain, your worm positions, many other things. As I told you in that other thread, save! :)

Yeah, this really sucks =//
I was told to kill 12 worms with cluster, and the reward was 2 uzis .-.
Sometimes it just don't worth it ;/

I like tactics! And that's the way I'm able to stock a little bit =P
I'm trying to have something around 30 rounds of each weapon...but with this special theme it's getting hard, since I'm trying to stock up as much as I can from them, since they are only available for a short time...and the prices are a bit salty ;x
Will try to earn some more! =P
merry xmas everyone! xD
