Hi there, I cant access the beta, i press done on select langauge and nothing happens, ive tried this on two devices now!
Wissam Akawi
I'm starting to get bored with this game. I'll stop playing until I can buy a Nano Pod or open battles where I can get resources like Bar and other resources.
D7
When is Except nano added?
Andrew Wang
Curious when the infected will be added?
Lau You Zhi
Yes metoo and currently it’s having maintenance
Prosalmander
Since the new update, the combat has been bugged. Stuck in combat, can’t move through a turn, have to reload the app, units sometimes turn into other units
Arkaid
I cannot download this app in Android. App doesn't show in Play store. Do you have any advice for this?
Gianni Marinelli
No it’s supposedly going to be implemented later on or in the full game release
Nova Wolf
Hey guys new player here, I was reading the threads about not being able to use nano pods to speed up things, is this a bug or is there a way around it? I can’t skip or speed up anything currently. Cheers
凌峰 陈
bug report!First: mistaken code when select chinese language edition on iphone ios . Second, can't drag the bar at the bottom to select battle unit when entering the battle on windows system
The Pink Panther
it was reported in the bug thread, youre not the only one
The Pink Panther
you can get bars from the naval encounter or by killing the ancient construct
あらぴょん
Please add a way to get the bars or make them available for purchase at Nanopot
我周六
The rebel ash general's level can't load in,did anyone know whats going on?
Wissam Akawi
There is a problem in level 28, the game freezes when we enter the missions, has anyone had the same problem?
Wissam Akawi
This is too much, I have missions that I can't complete because they require materials that aren't available and I can't get them from battles or even buy them, I don't know why we can't buy nanos and use them when we face such a problem. Please we need a solution
Jett Sims
I cannot ether
凌峰 陈
l cant connect server on ios iphone,anyone knows why please help
Maximilian Weber
does anyone know why i can not use nanopods to skip time?
lolz roflmao
Wherez my diamond tanks (hopefully I get more than one)
lolz roflmao
More updates man dw
lolz roflmao
Only get nanos from subs rn
Travis McAvoy
yes and no. there are various ways to increase the amount of xp you can gain on units such as only bringing in 2 different units or bringing in all of the same unit. for example if you are wanting to lvl the wimp just use a strong unit that can clear and a wimp behind it. otherwise you are spreading xp to more than 2 units and the xp is divided again. when farming a specific unit you have to attack with it. it doesn't have to kill anything but it has to attack and hit i believe. raptors and boars give the most xp because of quantity. if your talking about the actual resources then its going to be rather slow. the upgrades are meant to be impactful so the higher you go the more expensive it gets. you could use premium resource gatherers to speed it up or try farming mats around the world where ever you can. premium t2 mats like steel and concrete are the best use if your going to get premium mat collectors.
Travis McAvoy
hey man. not a dev but from what the devs have been leading towards is a complete return of the original game. so in the future once nano pods wont ruin the game they intend to return the store i believe. they are rolling out nanos and updates in waves it seems like and i think they said nanos every month on the 3rd. could be wrong but thats what i remember seeing. the game is strictly pve right now and max lvl is 30 last i checked so play it slow and enjoy the grind.
Wissam Akawi
I'm starting to get bored with this game. Everything in it is slow. If I want to level up my troops or upgrade my buildings, it takes a long time. In the early days of this game, I mean since its inception, we could buy nanopods and use them if we wanted to speed up the upgrade process. Are there any plans to bring back this service?
Huseinhj
I’ve noticed that the promotion of units seems to be very slow and requires a lot of time. Is there any solution or optimization available to improve this process
Cesar Padilla
ok see i was able to resync my account but now when i try to load in all i get is a black screen i tried to contact the creator but i cant seem to find any info to support so i hope commenting on here helps out
Lucas Janeiro
Creo que como el resto de jugadores opino, el juego volvió a nacer , pero le faltan muchas cosas sobretodo porque es un versión beta , pero vamos por buen camino hay que arreglar esos fallos con las misiones y luego darle más soltura al juego , aveces siento como que el juego empieza a ir loco durante un momento o que le cuesta cargar.
nvwu
I was 5 tier and I just switch to 300tier. Should I reset my acc? or you will send the Nano to my acc?
Jeremiah
Also are we getting the tanks ect when we get the nanos?
Jeremiah
Do we get all the profile pictures if we have mammoth tier
YORDI SALAS MOTA
Many thanks , looking forwards boss battles & guilds when it’s implemented yet an awesome game Battle nations survived
Remington Gibson
How do you get bars to heal TF2 units
Casey Foytho
Does anyone know if max level is still 30 ?
plololo
Can soldiers and units be upgraded normally? I used hand grenades to defeat many wild boars, but still cannot unlock new skills at level 1
Ryan Hansen
Can I buy some nanopods?? I need more storage lol
YORDI SALAS MOTA
Makes sense , their work is great none the less the game is good
Murph Playa
When attacks constantly miss like that, its because that enemy is already dead. Remember this is a beta and bugs happen.
YORDI SALAS MOTA
Is the game broken? Completing Sarin mission defeating him I got through all the waves and on the last raider (next to sarin) each of my attacks missed I had 10 units all wiped out along with Ramsey this isn’t right fix that glitch why did each attack miss I’m starting to be discouraged from this beta
Jeremiah
Also some mountains can't be expanded on just wastes money
Wissam Akawi
We need to promoting units!!! What about it ??
Jeremiah
Yeah need my wimps
Murph Playa
I dont mean to have this come across as rude or anything but you have to seriously be careful with your formations and understand that those tf2 units need to be treated like youre gambling a bar everytime you use it, putting it behind tanks or riot troops is the best plan and or retreating after its taken too much damage
Murph Playa
Its not implemented yet, youll recieve all the nanos from previous and current subs once they roll it out
Jeremiah
I think occupied land/buildings shouldn't be able to be used idk if its a glitch or you just decided to remove that 🤔
CFC
Does anyone now why i didn't recive any Nanopods por my sub? I payed 2 times 5$ and upgraded to sargent 15$ and never recived any nanopods drop
Logan
The discord is where they’ll answer all bug issues, there’s a whole channel devoted to it.
Desmond Olveda
try to download steam on macbook thats how i play on my pc
Fyite On
The problem is when they sell you a troop like the heavy that you pay specifically for with Nanos you should have the ability to heal that troop. At level 20, I have four of each of the free troops and one heavy in the hospital sitting there and I have zero bars received.
Emi Solorzano
not sure how to download into my macbook anyone know how too ?
Murph Playa
You have to be careful especially with the TF2 units, all of them take bars to heal pretty much. With the scout and soldier, dont spend a bar healing them and just retrain another. With the pyro, demoman, and heavy just play extremely carefully with them and or dont buy them in the first place because saving nanos for a storage vault is way more worth
Desmond Olveda
Same like the heavy troop needs 3 bars to heal and I’m only level 13 I’m not sure we can even get bars yet
Fyite On
I have a new issue with troops getting piled up in the hospital that I can’t heal because I don’t have the right resources
Casey Foytho
From what I’ve read the developers themselves stated that if everything transfer over smoothly once the full game is released you should keep everything you have 🤞🏼
Fyite On
Is the base we build here going to carry over to the final release of the game? These guys need to get some active moderators in the chat here or tell us where to go to report bugs
Alex Teguis
Has anyone been able to complete the crossover mission? I am stuck at two out of three attacks and the third attack hasn’t shown up yet
Casey Foytho
Still wondering if the Patreon nanopods is a one time thing or they keep giving us the nanopods afterwards, great update and very happy with the game that I used to remember being just as fun, would love to have the developers give small updates on what they are working towards and what we can expect the beta test to move forward toward online and troop leveling and maybe a boost for the players that have been supporting and testing for a while !
Sergio Carrero
Was I supposed to get nanopods after the new update?
Murph Playa
For real, Ive been really enjoying the game so far but I feel like I will be at disadvantage because my units will be lower level than future patreon supporters that join later on and or even those who wait for the full release. I really hope Madrona really focuses on getting unit SP and leveling implemented very soon because that was a gigantic part of the game. And maybe giving people who played before leveling was out a bit of a boost or some sort of headstart so the progression of leveling units isnt totally out of sequence.
Huseinhj
Also we need buying nanopods
Huseinhj
Its a great update but they forget to enable promoting units !!!!!!! How it can be promoted ????
Fyite On
New update is great, but there issues with some missions not being able to be complete, like the Mr Purfect one
Murph Playa
I have a question, with this new big update you guys are dropping soon, will we be able to promote and see troop stats?
Ignacio Rapalo
Hello! Good afternoon! How are you doing? I wanted to ask when we will be able tu get the nanopods? Or buy more? Im running out of space for my resources. Thank you!!
Remington Gibson
Are haulers not a thing in this beta
Fyite On
Are you gathering feedback about the game the way it plays and bugs in gameplay. Like the fact that the bonus building seem to be doing nothing, and I seem to remember the need for trucks to drive rock for resources
Social Pro
this sounds awesome
Battle Nations Group
We’ll be releasing a big update very soon that should unlock many of the missing missions!

Huseinhj
Any update about promoting the units still waiting .
Fyite On
So can someone from the game please update what is going on and what stuff is enabled and what is not. I have made it to L7 and it now seems like it is FarmVille
Remington Gibson
I’ve also reached level 6 and no missions are prompted, how do we progress the story
Wissam Akawi
I can't buy nanopod & i can't upgrade the soldiers
Wissam Akawi
The game lacks missions.
Alpha
Some of the missions have been temporarily taken out as they haven't implemented the features required for them (like the decoration missions and the Raiding missions where you attack the Raider bases), but they will be adding them back soon
YORDI SALAS MOTA
Continue gaining XP sourcing from farms & shops . Grow your outpost , upon new level further missions are unlocked
Ignacio Rapalo
Hello colleagues! I am very happy to have this wonderful universe back!!! I have progressed with mission until level 6 but then, no more mission or releases. How can I keep playing and progressing? Thank you!
Alpha
Save your nanopods for the Mammoth-class Battleship (M10) which is 55 nanos, and a Storage Vault or two. The Storage Vaults are 105 nanopods each, and only need 4 workers while storing 2000 of each resource so they're really good to have
Ignacio Rapalo
I just joined but cant use nanopods. Anyone can help me How to get my Nanos please? Thank you.
Maxx Beeler
When will we be able to use nano pods to speed stuff up?
Maxx Beeler
Yeah bro same here
Remington Gibson
For some reason I can’t seem to use nano pods, does anybody else have this issue
Sergio Carrero
Mammoths says it’s a 1 time payment, but on the top it says $300 a month. Am I reading it wrong ?
Casey Foytho
Sorry idk what the m10 is but the storage I’ll for sure be getting
ziyan chu
storage and M10 are good investments for future
Cesar Padilla
everone is saying to spend ur nanos on the storage vault for now
Casey Foytho
What should I be spending nano pods on? Is the weapons factory worth it? Or just save for later game troops
Casey Foytho
Sweet thank you , I was seeing people post spec ops bases and was wondering how they were getting the badges
Royal GG
Sweet thank you for responding but I still want to know can I get multiple of these units or only 1?
Alpha
Bars? You get Gold Bars by: - Fighting people in PvP (Not implemented yet) - Occupy or raiding a friend's Special Ops Center (Occupying and Raiding aren't implemented yet) - Assisting a friend's Mercenary Vault, Frontier Recruitment HQ or Barracks (Not implemented yet) - or by fighting Silver Wolves, which I'm not sure if they're implemented in-game If you're talking about Gears (Gold circle icon), you can only get them from occupying a friend's Vehicle Factory at the moment
Battle Nations Group
Hello! Yes those units are only available through a Patreon Tier subscription and can’t be obtained later. Subscribing to the Mammoth tier is done right here on Patreon but if you are having trouble accessing it on mobile please try the web version.
Royal GG
To the developers I’m trying to upgrade my tier. I’m thinking about doing the mammoth tier, but I have a few questions. First and most important, where do I go to do that? It won’t let me do it in app. Second, is the plasma mammoth and the diamond tank a kind of premium unit you can only get from the mammoth tier but can’t buy later in game? Just curious. Edit, before I forget, can you get multiple diamond tanks and plasma mammoths from the max tier or is it only 1 unit?
Mark Welsh
Great work on bringing this phoenix back from the ashes… This is still the only game I have ever taken a day off work to play… And I won’t even have to buy iTunes cards at the shop for nano’s Really enjoying playing again!
Mark Welsh
I totally agree with the zooming in closer, I’ve noticed when I return from a battle it’s zoomed in a lot closer so I just don’t pan out..
TheNFSGuy
Any idea on when they will be added or some kind of a shop to buy nano pods?
TheNFSGuy
Same haha !
Jeremy
When can we start to upgrade our units?
Cesar Padilla
u wont have to it was answered in a previous comment :)
Jeremiah
Can't wait for the full release hopefully I don't have to redo things
Casey Foytho
Gold badge in resources **
Casey Foytho
What is the golf badge and how do I get one so I can heal my heavy trooper 😅
Huseinhj
I am excited about the return of Battle Nations and have been thoroughly enjoying the nostalgic gameplay experience. However, I’ve encountered an issue that I want to bring to creators attention. Issue Description: While attempting to promote my units, I noticed that the information or option to promote does not appear. This makes it difficult to progress and fully utilize the units in battles. I would greatly appreciate it if you could investigate this issue and provide guidance or a fix in future updates. Suggestion: Additionally, I have a suggestion to improve the gameplay experience: it would be great if the camera could zoom in more on the land and base during gameplay. A closer view would enhance the visuals and allow players to better appreciate the details of their bases and units. Thank you for your hard work in bringing this beloved game back to life. I look forward to hearing from you soon and am excited to see future improvements.

Gracias, ya he empezado nen, se me ha quedado colgado en nivel 6, ya he enviado un ticket, a ver si me lo solucionan. Que recuerdos !!
Matt

Matthew Ball

Cesar Padilla

Cesar Padilla

Matt
Having so much fun! So excited to get into the PvP!
John Milo Milo
I have not seen rewards credited to my game account, I see them on the madrona page.

It's not implemented yet. Building a trooper regularly will finish the mission
David Laureano
This game will change everything thank you for the hard work bringing back a classic last time I played for 5 years 😁
Alex Elchev
How do I redeem my nanopods in the game? Stuck on rushing a trooper.
Brian Paul Martínez Mejía
Hello, first of all I want to congratulate the owner of the game. This game represents my childhood. I loved it. I think I was one of the best players and I invested a lot of money in this game. I remember the fragments that I had all and always pending the boostrik. I will continue playing but I would like to ask you some questions 1-will they respect the progress of this game when the complete one comes out? 2-will they have boos events? 3-will it be possible to play online as before and make clans? How was battle nations? 4 - I make content for social networks there is no campaign to upload game content so that more people see it and can play it, since I would like to contribute to this community in this way. Thank you so much, I love you very much att Chelderman

So far i really enjoy it. Can I see somewhere at what level the buildings are unlocked? I really need wood.
Jota Jaramillo
Te mando un saludo desde Ecuador! Recuerdo haber jugado Battle Nations desde el primer la primera generación del IPad y no puedo estar más feliz de volver a jugarlo,
CleverBrush
So far, it is really good, I'm dying for things to make in the shops and that is a good sign. This really brings back memories for me. I have not had anything that seems to not be working, though I have some low priority feed back for my experience on android. Some kind of indicator the game is loading during transitions There seems to be a slight delay when telling a troop to attack When placing a new building, sometimes you can't move it. Had the quest dialog for building a hospital repeat. Over all, with only 3 hrs of play time, I think it is a great revive of the game. Keep up the amazing work, and I look forword to helping provide more feed back.
Sagoin
Thank you, your update has solved the problem. I suppose it's normal, but just in case, when you fight in your base, you can't trigger a fight if you've deployed a pillbox there. Otherwise, for the other units, there's nothing to report apart from the fact that you can't view attack and skill details, but I suppose that's the effect of the beta. Most of the dialogue is legible, but sometimes the typography is completely anarchic and illogical, changing size and color from one line to the next.
Angel Estrada
You just gotta keep leveling up to unlock more tasks
Cesar Padilla
will our progress be saved and moved over once the game is released or will we have to start all over again
Zachary Price
Woohoo, outstanding! Thank you.
Jackson Green
Ok
Cesar Padilla
i dont think u can yet this is just the beta
Jackson Green
How do you access in game reward
Cesar Padilla
i got stuck like i cant progress no more do you stop getting missions at a certain point in the game?
Jeremiah
How do you get your diamond tank and stuff like this
Sagoin
Done !

Could you open a ticket on our support page so we can track this: https://support.madronagames.com

I was thrilled to see soetir the Beta for Christmas when I woke him up in the morning, but I quickly became disillusioned when I saw that neither in the base nor in combat was the scenery displayed, making it impossible to manage buildings and units. Apart from the dialogue bubbles and the various windows, I can't do anything without acting absolutely blind. For New Year's Eve, do you think you can save us?
García Sánchez Ángel
Hola, ya estoy probando la beta y se ve muy bien. Una duda, ¿el avance que hago en el juego seguirá cuando descargue el juego final?

Hell yeah
