What do you invest in first as far as upgrades?

in Flop Rocket
Was it the magnets or the agility?
Was it one for everything and keep going down the line?
What is your logistical strategy?

    1. Magnet
    2. Duck Canon
    3. Fuel
    4. Agility
    5. GOTO 2 (repeat a few times)
    6. GOTO 1 (repeat a few times)
    7. Magnet (repeat until near max)
    8. Everything, cheapest upgrade first, until all is maxed

    Obviously worm food because everyone knows you can never have enough worm food...
  • EtrusanEtrusan Bscotch Posts: 71 Babbyscotch
    Well, you can almost always escape before the worm appears ...
  • bsb333bsb333 Bscotch Posts: 111 Butter Churner
    Well that was meant as a joke i didn't really upgrade worm food until i had excess money and didn't know what to do with it. The problem is always when you do need it you don't have it the rest of the time you just waste it!

    Even if I have worm food, I can be faster than worm, so I keep the food for another worm.

    I'd say magnet and fuel mainly, then armor and duck cannon, then the rest for me!
    French, low end phone, low skill early access tester. Or something like that. Or absolutely nothing like that.
    I also spend my time editing my own posts because it's a nice community here.

    This may seem CRAZY. But I go like this.
    1. Magnet to upgrade 2
    2. Thrust to upgrade 2
    3. Duck cannon to upgrade 4
    4. Fuel to upgrade 2
    5. Thrust to 5
    6. Escape pod to 2
    7. Fuel to 5
    8. Magnet to 5
    9. Whatever my heart wants because I can't remember my build order anymore!

    I mostly just upgrade thrust with everything else as a second priority. Might not be the best strategy...
  • UlnarevernUlnarevern Bscotch, Moderator, Tester Posts: 318 mod
    Magnet is pretty important I think since it can quickly help you get more money for better upgrades.

    For me, my priorities are:
    1. Magnet
    2. Duck Cannon
    3. Armor
    4. Fuel
    5. Thrust
    6. Everything else equally
    Magnet is amazing, and it really helps the duck cannon shine (because the ducks explode into coins, which you can MAGNET UP)!

    Armor, of course, at least until you get some decent starting armor plates. Fuel becomes more helpful later as the fuel pads get more spaced apart, but it's not as big of a deal if you play pretty aggressively. The whole point of fuel consumption is to encourage reckless gameplay as you try to get from one pad to the next as fast as possible, but I already play that way anyways.

    @MeaKitty‌ OH WO/MAN YOU HAVE NO IDEA!!!

    Flop Rocket is basically a different game since November. I think it deserves a lot more attention than it is getting, but most of its downloads and reviews are from the older, less-awesome version. We hope its debut on iOS will bring some success though!
  • MeaKittyMeaKitty Bscotch, Tester Posts: 131 Shenaniduke
    Haha. Fair enough. I've just gotten myself readdicted to QR and am getting into TF2 now. Absolutely churning through levels. Played for a good 45 mins a day all this week or something.  FR comes next! I got some dang PERKS to unlock!!!

    Fine! You've convinced me @bscotchseth
     Got flop rocked. Got my first 100m. Just invested in Magnet. How many BS perks does that get me?

    Also, hate the conversion rate. My Google Play account has 2.99 in it, which would have been great cuz FR butter up is 2.99.... except I have 2.99 AUD and it's 2.99USD.... which is about 3.27AUD.

    Dangnabbit Google Surveys! Gimme more survey for Google Play money because I want to funnel all your funds to the Butterscotch Brothers! XD

    Don't worry about the perks. Just be...yannow? Just flop into space.. 
  • R4V3NR4V3N Bscotch Posts: 40 Butter Churner
    1)Magnet- to get some big bucks rolling in, even on less than stellar runs.
    2) Fuel- Means I can play for longer at a gentler tilt
    3) Duck cannon- Turns annoying obstacles into mobile coin piñatas
    4) Escape Pod- as invariably I will get a junk caveworm spawn and kamikaze to spite it

    Or as is now the case, whatever I can afford after a couple runs.

    Re-downloading Flop Rocket nao. I'm deeply shamed by this, but I rage-uninstalled.
  • IsisEdenIsisEden Bscotch Posts: 10 Babbyscotch
    Oh, also in terms of currency conversion rates:
    1 USD = 44 PHP

    Yup.
  • MeaKittyMeaKitty Bscotch, Tester Posts: 131 Shenaniduke
    Don't worry @IsisEden. I did the same thing.  XD the important thing is you're back now. Get lost in the magic that is FRv2.
