Questions from the comments:
Can Quincy grow facial hair like his dad (as seen in the trophy store) and he just shaves it or did that skip a generation?
Technically, he can grow a ‘beard’ but it's a very loose definition.
Why are guns only used by a little amount of monkeys? Do their ammo cause millions of bananas?
The other monkeys believe they’ve found better ways to stop the Bloons
Is Sav the only Ninja Kiwi support member? Me and my friends have only gotten support emails from Savannah.
Nope! We have a team but it is a small one so it's pretty likely to get emails from the same person. :)
Can i purchase goods in Geraldo's shop using rupees?
I’ve heard the exchange rate is TERRIBLE
This year's Easter is April 17th, But it was announced that the Flash version of SAS4 will end on April 30th. Will there be an Easter event this time?
Yes! This should be up now!
Are there any plans to implement crafting, which has been highly requested in the mobile / STEAM version of SAS4? If not, why?
It is something the team has looked into but not something we are planning to add at the moment as this would require a huge amount of time and effort.
Are there any non-MOAB boss bloon in the blooniverse? If so, what does it look like?
The Bosses aren’t really MOABs, they are their own class of rubbery-ness
Why does Sauda have a bandage on her tail? Was she wounded, or is it just her style?
Definitely just style, not an ill judged sword swipe at all ;)
Is anyone on the team jealous of Geraldo's stache?
Yes.
is cobra coming back?
No is the plainest answer. If there’s anything that evolves from Cobra that fits Battles 2, it will be quite different, be reconceived to fit that game, and not be IAP. There are no plans or designs for this currently.
Was trying to nerf the Glue Rat not an April Fools joke and you actually tried to nerf the rat. If so, were you stopped by the Glue Rat ascending into game code and stopping you from nerfing it despite the patch notes already being out?
Any attempts were slowed down too much
Why doesn't Adora sacrifice Bloons instead of other monkeys to gain XP?
They have the wrong type of XP.
Hello! In a recent announcement on reddit, it was announced there are plans to add a tower creator. Will this be available for mobile?
The tower modifier would be for mobile definitely.
can you add the banana monkey from Bloons pop in BTD6 as the Banana farms pet
We would love to, one day!
Who is the shortest hero (apart from psi because they're a child)
Churchill out of his tank
how fluffy are the monkeys
SO fluffy
Are we ever going to get pets for the pets? They too could use some company.
I heard you like pets so I got you a pet for your pet! (But no, probably not)
Since we got paragons, does that mean we will never get t6s or a fourth path?
It’s pretty unlikely at this stage!
What is the fastest recorded speed of a bloon?
So fast you never see it coming
I would like to know the names for Bloonarius and Lych since Vortex is the speedy boi please. Hopefully something that also ends with ‘boi’.
Big boi and scary boi.
Will there be any compensation for people who have bought stuff in SAS 4 flash over the past few months. I personally spent loads of nk coins on sas 4 the week before it was announced that it was going away and 1 month does not really much time of notice. Will I be able to get stuff in the mobile version or something.
Contact support and we’ll see if we can help!
What hero has the best origin story?
Ezili but it's a secret
What do the other monkeys think of Gwen's grilling?
A bit too much charcoal
Would Geraldo make a good door-to-door salesman?
The BEST
What boss bloon does the spirit of the forest fear most?
Lych so scary
What would happen if the bloons gave up?
World peace
Now that we have 14 heroes, can we finally hope for a "Heroes Only" mode? I'm pretty sure we have enough heroes to cover all kinds of bloons.
We love the hero designs and personalities, and the mechanic of ranking up in game works well alongside towers that you need to actively upgrade. Double Crossbow Masters, co-op, and initial designs for the Academy that we’ve since moved away from are all ways to see more heroes in action together. Our biggest concern with a heroes mode would be the minute to minute fun factor - there are ways to address it (slowing down XP and forcing you to spend upgrade, map elements that you have to spend on) but those feel like they would end up being narrow options strategically. We’ll keep thinking about it, though - thanks for the question!
is it true NK Archive gonna stop working because i spent so much time grinding this.
Only a handful of our games will not be supported anymore but the Archive will still work!
I just realized that the four original boss Bloons had powers relating to Water, Fire, Earth, and Wind! Does that mean that the monkeys and Bloons lived in harmony before the Blastpoplous Nation attacked?
Seems like a reasonable hypothesis…
Out of Geraldo and Striker, who has the better Moustache? Are there ever arguments about it?
Constantly, we had to get them to agree to both having great ones of different styles…
Have a great weekend and happy gaming!
