My Question is ,,, what is your prefered enemy to work with? By that i mean which enemy can you use effectivly when you map, Which Enemy Can you use best? can you place mines really well ,, or a you a fan of drone paths using zap drones? Do you place lasers strategicly?Or chainguns Perfectly? what do you prefer??

For Me i would say i prefer rockets or can use them best

drone pathing is to complicated and tedious for my tastes

mines all the way

so many options so many strategys

followed shortly by a tie between gaussi and rockets


and so it goes, and so it goes, and so will you soon i suppose.

Exactly. My enemy of choice fluctuates. For a long time it was floorguards, but I alternate between laser/chaingun phases a lot now, and use thwumps a bit more often. The one I rarely use now is zap drones. Rockets and gauss are also common, but I don't notice using them as much as I notice using the drones.

I've always been stronger with stand still enemies. Mainly rockets and mines.

I'd have to say chaingun, but I think I may be moving towards Chaser Drones. Making a good map with those feels really satisfying.

Which enemy I use really depends on what mood I'm in.
But when stuck, i always find myself going back to thwumps.
Maybe it's because you can do so much stuff with them, i dunno. But if i could only have one enemy, it'd be the thwump.

Rocket's, without a doubt. I just love running through a map, taming the rocket around me. Good times...

I see it as a hard call between using the Homing Missile (Rocket) or the Chaingun Drone. I had to find a excuse to like o better so I figured because I commonly code edit Chainguns into other drones like Force Fields and Alarms etc. I have to choose the Chaingun over the Rocket :)

Woah. What a jackass you are.

I've never really had a favourite enemy, because if I use one too much I get bored of it for awhile.

+1, I take back zap drones because of this. Really I couldnt say I have a specific favorite enemy, because if you only take one enemy in isolation the map ultimately suffers for it.

Oh I misread the first post, I thought it was about which enemy we use the best. Uhh, I don't really have a favourite, like lord_day said, its more fun to change it up.

You're asking two different things as though they were the same. "Which enemy do you like using the most?" is different from "Which enemy are you best at using?" They may result in the same answer for obvious reasons, but they're different concepts.

For me, my answers to both are gauss and chaingun. If I had to choose between them, I'd probably pick gauss.
