Contra Returns

Just as last person said it doesn’t matter how well you play how much money you spend. And people spend 10k and up there are hacks and codes. U can get killed with one move have the same character and the same special move does almost no damage how??? No I am not complaining just because I lose. It’s crazy how you can have the same hero origin for a example and get absolutely destroyed by one special hit the other player with three of the same specials and they still live. I have been killed by two loves multiple times. Have jumped out of the move etc and still get bodied. It’s crazy how some players are invincible. Everytime I get close to top 5 in PvP I get unbeatable players. If it was skill I would be fine. Anyone can press one button tho. It’s whatever but definitely hackers are at it. Also don’t waste your money on upgrading. Wasted hundreds and get zero result. Somehow the First awakening for the gold am is better than the second. Second cost 30 dollars. Only choice. Game is fun but hacked or fixed. They will never change anything or care as it gets ppl to spend ridiculous amounts of money thinking it will level the field. It doesn’t. But hey just quit playing. It a total scam and had absolutely nothing to do with the original contra series. NOTHING. It’s either too hard or too easy. Skill does not come into play in story mode or any mode other than PvP. But in PvP it pay to win or cheat to win. It irritating that’s for sure.

My excitement for this game quickly vanished when I discovered it is a pay to play Gacha game. After only a couple days of playing, the gameplay has slowed enough that I can only play for about 5 minutes before running out of stamina. So that is what I am left with, playing for 5 minutes a day or paying to play more. Very disappointing. The basic gameplay had promise, but they added way too much stuff and it is so complex and confusing I don’t even know what the value of things are or what I should be trying to do. They are constantly throwing things at you to spend money. Just sell the game for like $10 or something and let me play it when I want without having to spend money everyday. Update: After playing for another week, more content has opened up that allows for a player to get by without spending money. Much of the pvp content will be out of reach as time goes on, without spending, but for the FTP players out there, if you don’t mind having your leveling slowed it can be a fun game. Better guides are definitely needed. There is a bunch of stuff I still don’t understand and there is no place to look up what to do.

I love these types of games but most of them are to bent on money than enjoyment. What I’m talking about is the requirements of this game. First, you need internet to play, which is not listed in the description. It seems like companies and developers are constantly making this feature just to get continuous revenue from ads. They call them “on-the-go games” and you can play them “anywhere”, but really, it’s anywhere that has WiFi. I want to be able to play on my own terms without very many restrictions like these. Especially the campaign. The Original Contra games were never like that, you could play them absolutely anywhere with no restrictions or cache. They didn’t require internet. There should be an offline mode where can play without internet, but you just don’t have as many playing options. Also, if you do play multiplayer, there should be an option to play with bots, so you can train while you’re offline and therefore, test your skills against real players when you have a WiFi signal. That would be great. Please add those and you’ll earn a loyal player.
