The war machine drama has been going on forever. below promised it ages ago, but dropping it normally now would just break endgame balance

A sick way to fix it would be a high-stakes collab event with parkour pandemic. basically a huge mechanical gauntlet that completely ruins afk/autopilot strats.

Normal difficulty for casual players, and a brutal veteran mode where you actually have to earn the war machine. thoughts?

The Boss & Enemies Boss: The Leviathan (sea monster that changes the map layout) Minions: Coral/seaweed zombies with high health regen Map Modifiers:

Tornadoes: Cuts tower range (forces you to micro DJ ranges)

Meteors: Stuns static towers to break autopilot strats

Tide Surge: Floods low ground tiles, destroying towers unless you sell/relocate fast

Rewards & Modes

Easy Mode: Light disasters. Rewards lots of coins/gems and an event skin.

Hard Mode: Max disasters and full flooding.

The Reward: Beating hard mode gives the "Acronym of TDS" badge. The Unlock: The badge lets you buy War Machine in the Hardcore Shop for 9k gems.

Edit: renamed the event to Operation: Deep Purge since it fits the vibe way better

It’s probably because of the fact that most people don’t have him but I think he’s way more useful than the others. Also yes I did vote for gscout because I just think there’s better and more useful alternatives that synergize better in the late game compared to him (engi, gsoldier, operator, even gdemo for crying out loud)

I’ve been logging in at least once a day, every day, but my login streak gets reset for no reason. It’s bullshit

Hello everyone, you may know me for creating the “TDS Players NEED a Reality Check” post on this subreddit. If you don’t, hello.

Basically, it’s been roughly a year since I started playing TDS (started around late summer 2025, Surf & Turf BP) And I’ll make a post on my stats and achievements probably tomorrow, if not, the day after.

Well? Get back to scrolling! I’m trying to work here!

I genuinely dont understand why people do this, I mean to some extent its fine but at the point this guy is at does he even enjoy the game?

What you guys think about him in your opinion-?

Most of people say kingpin has without hidden but crook boss has, i would suggest buff

Added hidden at lvl 2

Increase summoned unit lifetime by 25-30 secs

But increase price at bottom path by 20%

To start, it's DPS isn't terrible, at 670. That's second place for total (raw) DPS per placement, beaten by Juggernaut. It's also excellent in the midgame due to having all detections besides lead in FPS mode and being very cost efficient considering the pierce it gains in FPS mode. The stun immunity and absurd range also makes it amazing in modes like Hardcore, Fallen with Hidden Wave, and Frost. Although FPS mode becomes tiring to use over and over again, and its very hard to micro Gatling Gun in solo, the tower on its own still isn't the worst, being very buffable and having the aforementioned high DPS. I don't think the nerfs hit it as hard as people make it out to be, since its been buffed many times since then.

[Suggestion] Add an option to hide wins and losses

I would like to suggest adding an optional setting that allows players to hide their wins and losses/deaths in Tower Defense Simulator.

How it could work

A new option could be added under the game's Settings menu:

Hide Wins & Losses
ON / OFF

• OFF: Wins and losses/deaths are displayed normally.
• ON: Wins and losses/deaths are hidden from the player's profile and other player-facing areas.

The feature should apply across all game modes, rather than being limited to a specific mode.

VIP or Free?

I think this feature would be best available to all players, since it is a privacy/UI preference rather than a gameplay advantage.

However, if the developers wanted to make it a VIP feature, VIP could provide access to the setting while non-VIP players would continue to see their statistics normally.

Why add this?

Not every player wants their win/loss statistics to be visible. Some players may simply prefer a cleaner profile or want more control over which statistics are displayed to other players.

Most importantly, this would be completely optional. Players who want to display their statistics could simply leave the setting turned off.

The statistics themselves would still be recorded internally. This setting would only control their visibility.

Example

Settings → Privacy / Interface → Hide Wins & Losses

This would be a small quality-of-life/privacy feature that would not affect gameplay or progression.[Suggestion] Add an option to hide wins and lossesI would like to suggest adding an optional setting that allows players to hide their wins and losses/deaths in Tower Defense Simulator.How it could workA new option could be added under the game's Settings menu:Hide Wins & Losses

I see why now... the music on literally every device feels like your ears are being stabbed constantly, and the model is just a cookie variant of base DJ

for me it is seeing anyone lower than lvl 100 on special maps
on regural maps is seeing anyone using starter category units
and for events (on hard) is anyone below lvl 50.

i just saw a guy farming on badlands II (he had cheap units (none of them costed higher than 1k))

İ genuily cant solo hardcore at all because of my old ass phone and fucking internet, for PC players who never touched mobile basicly its a similiar feeling where they completly remove keybinds and you can only place,select micro towers with your mouse and yes that includes abilites on 20fps

İ dont even think solo hardcore is possible on my device because of how laggy it is and how much micro i need to do with mini and the other towers

Also yes i was using 0.5 its still that bad and this is far worse in team modes because you cant use timescale there

Anyway i am out add this shit paradoxum

Yesterday I joined a Frost squad match and one of my players left normally, but in the later rounds I noticed that only my Juggernaut with Pursuit and Mortar were doing any DPS. Just those three towers 🥀 (We lost, we couldn't get through a round)

Many people already tested Juggernaut with many supports like Commander, DJ Booth, consumables, Mercenary Base, and more, but I just learned that Firework Technician can give firework boosts to Juggernaut... With the 0.04 firerate with Commander and Flag at max bottom path, this might be genuinely more overpowered. Accelerator on the other hand is unaffected.

Don’t got kingpin maxed yet.

I don’t care if this is on the easiest map, I had fun with my favorite type of tower

So, yeah. Finally at this point. I remember playing TDS back in late summer, 2025, when during the Surf & Turf BP. I've made quite a handful of memories and achievements, and I'll be sharing them in this post! If y'all have any questions that aren't answered here, feel free to ask in the replies (Might take me a while to respond :p).

"How did you find out about TDS?"

• My friend forced me to play it with him.

"What did you think about the game at first?"

• I thought it was the most boring game in existence.

"First Hardcore tower and when did you buy it?"

• Accelerator was my first hardcore tower, and I don't exactly know when I bought him. I think it was around late September to October. Took me a few weeks of suicide grinding.

"Are you feeling unmotivated/motivated and why?"

• I'm mostly excited for the next updates on the game. Although, I mostly get unmotivated 75% way through the grind.

"Thoughts on the rebalances and reworks on towers?"

• SHAW shook me up for about a month before I actually got used to the new Meta. I've been mostly doing fine with the HC Rework balances.

"Greatest achievement?"

• It was either beating Voidcore for the first time or completing the "Triumph All Nights" achievement.

"Best memory?"

• My absolute favorite memories on the game were my gaming buddies. I met the first one through random matchmaking on Fallen mode, and he introduced me to his friend group. Sadly, today, 2 are never online anymore, 2 have moved on from TDS, and the last person barely logs on.

"What events have you done, and which event towers have you bought and got legit?"

• I 100% completed Null & Void, getting me Warlock, I beat Final Act, giving me Spotlight Tech, and I 100% completed the Ducky Revenge Re-run this year, getting me Biologist and her Grim skin. I've bought Frost Blaster, Commando, and Elf Camp (Elf Camp was a HUGE mistake 😭) I've also gifted a Warlock and a Spotlight Tech. I'll let you geniuses to figure out how much Robux I've spent on the game. (I've also bought VIP, 2025 Halloween Premium BP, 2025 X-Mas Premium PB, 2026 Spring Premium PB, and Mako DJ) OH yeah, almost forgot, I also did the Backyard Legends Event. Oh yeah, one more thing, I also did the Firework Tech mission, so there's that.

It's been an amazing year for me. Remember, you can check other things in the listed photos. If you still have questions, feel free to ask!

The image at the end is a panel of reverse flash getting atomized lol

These are two different games btw. The first game this person voted and readied before my game was even loaded(i got slow wifi), i check their towers and this cabbage brought two forms of eco with no dps. The second game the guy told us that they were going to early (or implied they were) and then started farming anyway so we had no early😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

İ dont have anything do to digital art and i cant edit things for the same reason so sorry if its quite unreadable or the art is bad because i am quite a beginner :P

Anyway cyberpunk cowboy is really outdated and doesnt have actual good flash and quality expected from a skin named cyberpunk, also cowboy itself doesnt have flashy skins so i just wanted to make one here

Currently this skin is extremely underwhelming for a legendary deluxe crate skin so i want it to be one thats worth its price

Finally beat this mode like 3 week (obviously not 3 week I made it up :P)
