This week we've been wrangling things.
SAS: Zombie Assault 4 things. Bloons Monkey City things. Website things. Even other thing things. Things are more or less under control now.
Contested Territory Relaunch
The start of the week saw the return of Contested Territory in Bloons Monkey City. It got off to a good start, but we soon started seeing territories becoming unclaimed and unclaimable. We've pushed a few updates out over the last couple of days to get that back under control, and it looks like the latest version, only hours ago, will stop the continuing problems. Your time captured from earlier may not be showing up as it should but any capture time going forward should now be saved properly.
A Zombie Seesaw
SAS4 has had updates, featuring changes to balance and premium additions. We're keeping a close eye on discussions about these changes, as well as data like win/loss rates to see how the game in general is affected. At the moment we're balancing the game with the "non-beta" version being the end goal, so often these changes will force you to adapt your play style. Specifically in regards to changes to a Skill, we have heard you asking for a free Skill Reset and we've been discussing the best way to deal with Skill changes. It may end up being a free reset, though adding that into the game, making sure there's no exploits etc. means it's not just a switch to flip on our end.
Keep posting your thoughts and discussing the possibilities of SAS4 in the future. Though we don't often post directly to suggestions, we read them as much as we can and appreciate you taking the time to tell us your ideas, whether it's carefully mathed suggestions or something that just sounds plain awesome.
Questions from the Comments:
Impoppable mode for BTD5 Web?
Impoppable Mode (and other mobile things) is something we would like to add, though adding it in takes valuable time. Features in the mobile version need to be coded separately for the web version (and vice versa).
In CT, will we be facing the same 5 cities every time, or will it change every week?
You'll most likely have a new group each week. It's unlikely you'll recognise a city, but it is a possibility.
Will there be more updates to MvM?
Yep! The original Contested Territory update came with a small change to stop Honor from being lost at a rate higher than it could be earned from the same person, but bigger changes are planned that will encourage participation in MvM
MOAB health in BMC? DDT Speed?
All MOAB-class bloons (besides past round 30 in CT) have 66% health. The DDT is as fast as a pink bloon.
After round 30 in Contested Territory, MOAB-class health and all bloon speed starts increasing at a steady rate.
Got a question? Leave it in the comments, and tune in next week to see what we have to say, even if it's just a bunch of gibberish!

Was there some kind of update to Bloons TD Battles? I feel like the rounds come quicker in the beginning now.
Is there a date when sas4 might come out on portable devices
sometimes on SAS 4, during a multi player match my game just says error and then my screen goes crazy and i have to reload the game. Is thiss because of my internet or does it happen to every one else? plz fix
Bloons monkey city won't load up it loads to the end of the loading bar then stops please help me guys thankyou (:
I really hope we get a free skill reset. I desperately need to get rid of these Body Armor Expert and Pay Grade points on my Assault that have such minimal effect at my level.

I supposedly "won" CT, but when it reset, I saw no increase in my bloonstones. Is there more to it than just winning your group for the longest time? I had that without the time that CT didn't credit me for (which included up until the time ended).
Why do I lose honor in BMC when I didn't attack or defend anyone for a couple of days? I used to have around 500-600, but now I only have 437! Again, I did not lose an attack since a week from today, and back then, I have 500 honor. Ninja Kiwi should fix the losing honor lost rate.
How much health does a ZOMG and DDT have in BMC? I've been destroying the ZOMG much more easily than in BT5. Also, what about the DDT's health (not including the 6 Camo Regrow.
