TBH, the fact they are right on top of various issues is good. They sound like they are up for getting this right for the fans :)

They really need to shrink the UI it's just far too big,they also need to make it so you can view your weapons during countdown, other than that it seems pretty solid already finished campaign and the 5 bonus missions.
 
I've completed 1-35 and all the warzone levels, something I've not managed to do in a previous worms game..

Online play is good fun, but I wish you could have chat on screen instead of in that silly window

Agreed. That chat window is just horrible to use.
 
the game was updated yesterday and one of the updates was tweaked the drill distance so i'm wondering if they made it no go as far

going to try it now and report back

*EDIT* YUP the drill distance has almost been halved you'll have to ninja rope around the edge of the cheese circle and drill down a few feet to the bottom then launce the armageddon. might take a few attempts to ninja the outside and requires some funky timing to get up the hole.

Good luck and let us know if you do it

i've now completed levels 31-35 they are awesome :)

OMG at last ive done it but how come I cant go forward to levels 31-35
 
Seriously? That is just... dodgy. It really does sound like the multiplayer was designed entirely on paper and wasn't really tested for actual usability.

It looks like some largeish chunks have been ported across from the Xbox Arcade game to be honest, which would explain the chat limitation since there wouldn't be much chat.
 
There are some other annoying bugs which I have noticed, sometimes when walking around the landscape or using the jetpack my worms can get stuck in various places and the only way to get them out is to use a weapon. Irritating.

I'm amazed at some of the stupidity of the ai too, they can throw grenades half way across the map and get them to stop on your head and other times they blow up a bazooka right in their own faces.....hmmmm....

Or lay a mine and just sit on it.

AI has ALWAYS been like that. Its just if they can't hit you. I remember Worms World Party where the final challenge mission put you up against about 10-15 enemy worms with 1 or 2 players so you had to hide. You could guarantee they'd hit you if you came into sight but most of the time they'd shoot terrain, occasionally hitting allies accidently and sometimes intentionally.
 
Downloading from Steam now :)

Will be interested to play with you guys online, I used to be Elite rank online back in Armageddon days, but I'm sure i lost my touch, used to love using the ninja rope ^^

but im gonna get through all the single player stuff first
 
Christ i need to play this more on multiplayer... decided to do the Warzone missions and the utterly ridiculous grenade deflecting AI is starting to drive me insane.
 
I bought this on the weekend and there are a few things puzzling me that I'm not going to wade through this thread in the vein attempt at finding an answer. So here goes...

I have logged into the game, created a profile, all sorted.

I click to play single player and it plays the game. Going through the campaign is straight forward, however:

1) Why on every map, no matter what you do to the AI/Other worms it only ever takes 1 HP from them?!

Back in the worms I knew when you hit someone with 100 health with a bazooka direct hit, you would take a good 40/50 points off? This also happens when I create any custom MP game with human parties just to play with some people sat around the computer

Is there something wrong? Have I done something stupid or wtf basically?

2) I tried to go to MP section. Only for NETWORK GAME to be greyed out and only LOCAL GAME available, wtf? Do I have to complete campaign or something?


Just a few small things but it really annoyed me the other day. Enough for me to stop playing. I also completed up to level 15 on the campaign for the game to crash on me when I tried to exit legitimately. Now all those campaign levels I completed are lost and I have to start again....annoyance!

Any ideas?
 
Is this worth getting then? I loved all the worms games up to Armageddon, but I heard that this one isnt as good.

I could just reinstall Armageddon instead.
