New Savage Moon DLC landing in June

The popular tower defence game Savage Moon will receive an add-on pack in June. The first add-on pack Waldgeist promises to boost the game’s features with six new, unique levels, complete with new insect enemies, towers, alien vegetation and a new final mission.

In Savage Moon players embark on a mission to protect an outer-space mining facility from swarms of alien insects. The DLC will add Invisicytes (creatures that have the ability to become invisible to your defence towers), the Death Blossom Bug (large armoured beasts that burst and release tiny, deadly flying bugs) and new Towers (Sensor Towers can render Invisicytes visible, while Arclight Towers fire lightning that conducts from Insectocyte to Insectocyte).

Players will also be able to replay the 12 existing levels of the game in new game modes thanks to a reworking of the levels. Fresh level data will introduce the add-on packs new Insectocytes and tower types in the older levels.

I love Savage Moon but I am finding it very hard to complete levels, maybe they could ramp the difficulty down, or provide a Super Easy mode For Us Savage Moon Challenged?

Hit the nail on the head DC. Man I loved this game but flip it gets ridiculously hard and since it doesn't support co-op you can't even get a mate to help you out. I am hesitant to pay for the DLC since I can't even finish the original levels but perhaps they have learnt their lesson and the DLC will be easier.... I hope.

Dark_Overlord

Make the DLC easier??????? You are joking, the game was too easy. I managed to get everything in 1 playthrough

SAVAGE MOON is a brilliant game totally addictive. I agree that making the "bugs" tougher in update 2.0 was not a great move by FL. Hopefully with the DLC will come difficulty options: I loved a game that lasted three hours! Now thirty minutes is hard and not as satisfying.

AlvoDDRT

yes, the first try on some levels was tough, but the i used just machine gun, amp, and repair towers, and it became really easy, u guys should watch the videos 4 this game on youtube. AWESOME game, definitely getting the DLC pack.

Thanks for the suggestion AlvoDDRT. I'll give that a try and for sure I'll be getting the DLC pack too.

ditto

It's a very cleverly constructed game. Not sure either that tougher bugs was a good idea. It is still the game I play most often and can't wait for the DLC.

Hi - We will be revisiting the difficulty of the game when the new DLC is released. Thanks for the comments on the difficulty of the game; it helps lots to get your feedback! Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback Tom. It is always tough to balance games when your audience is so diverse but we are all more than happy to participate in the experience ;-) Best wishes for the DLC release!

Had I not played prior to update 2.0 I would still have loved the game. What I loved was setting up your defences and sitting back to watch the action unfold - like watching some weird sci-fi flick.

Can't really do that now as things progress much faster and you need to be more proactive. I've always been a big believer in difficulty levels... we are all different. What is easy for one person is impossible for another. That "other" person is likely to give up and FL loose their business ($$$). Just a thought. ;)

Most addictive game, play it for the most on my PS3. I would really love having your own high scores locally saved so you can challenge your own progress.

I have played this since it came out. First on my friends system, and now on my own. I can't wait for some more levels!! And some new bugs and towers would be sweet as well. I did notice that the bugs are tougher, and so I still have 4 levels that I have not beaten on my system, even using the strategies on youtube. Will have to keep playing though. Hooray new levels!!!!

Cumqat

The DLC looks awesome. Can't wait! Think it was better before they made it harder. Dark_Overlord must be a SAVAGE MOON Ninja? ;)

Ibbie

To FL. I dont know if this will be included in the DLC but it would be great to be able to use some of the advanced towers on the earlier levels where they are not available. just a thought

Reds

So where is the DLC, we are waiting.

Murt

when is the DLC going to be released?great game!!!

would be nice to create your own levels

A phenomenal game to say the least. I see lots of comments about it being too difficult, while there are really infinite ways to complete a level, I found the best was to centralize near the base and only focus on mg's, anti-airs, repair towers and amp towers. Using that on all of the levels made the massive swarms a lot more manageable.

As far as the DLC goes, separate difficulties are a great idea. I personally would like to see larger, more complicated levels that require all of the late level upgrades. Either way I look forward to playing it!

Ray

Are they going to still have a June release for the DLC?

Lisa

El33tonline has confirmed with the developer that the DLC will not be coming in June. More as and when it hits the wires.

Jason

ill buy it as soon as the BUG is fixed in lvl 7 which crashes the game every time right at the end of the lvl making it unfinishable i have update 2.80 on ps3 pls fix this

Fantastic game, can't stop playing it since I bought it two weeks ago. but man, is it HARD! I have been stuck on lvl 8 for an entire week now, it's basically impossible. I never got a chance to play it before the difficulty changes people speak of were made, so I really hope that it's changed back, because as it stands now, I may have to stop playing because this lvl is unpassable for me.

Dave

I enjoyed this game very much.......well...until you get passed the halfway point around Lv7 & Lv8, i can't even keep my mining facility at 100% on these levels or even beat Lv8. The mobs are just to overwhelming and my perseverance is is about to be compromised.(sigh).

I enjoy strategy games very much, wish i played this before update 2.0 I doubt i'll buy the DLC (unless they fix patch 2.0) Savage Moon was a fun experience and would have been on my list of top 5 games if the Insectocytes weren't so EVIL!! . I'm scarred for life now. For those that finished the game i salute you!

I think it's fair to say that everybody is very eager to get their hands on the DLC. The consensus is clear: The difficulty level is too high for the majority of people - which is a shame. It was in my opinion hard enough prior to update 2.0. If nothing else, a return to the previous difficulty would make most people happy.

Here's hoping the DLC arrives soo.

This is the best game I've played this year. Picked it up about 4weeks ago. I think the difficulty is about right. It is very hard ,but not impossible. It takes lots of practice and strategy, thats the way it should be.

Fluffy, job well done.

Ok, guys...but where is the DLC? They announced that will be out on june, them they said it will be july...ok we are already in july...someone know when it will be out?!?!?!?

july 14, and no word from sony or flufffy logic.... should we go go to XBLA???

Jason

I've noticed there are extra trophies in the list.. maybe the expansion will come out this week. I think the hardness level is just right, it's very challenging and takes alot to figure out,, i really like this game. sometimes bugs get stuck and causes game to hang, but if u put a weapon near it the bug will die and the game will un-hang.. easy fix.

CaptNingo

where is the DLC??? - i really need my fix!!!! hardness level is right - have cleared the entire game. took me a few weeks and quite a few tries on the later levels but that is what it should be.

Joe

I have been waiting for this to come out i love this game i can play over and over again, yes it did get a lil harder but it is still thee best download i ever bought i am waiting for the new dlc to come out i have been looking at the psn everyday ( even tho it only updates once a week ) in hopes that it will be there i am kinda getting upset with it, i mean it said that it will be in at the end of june then it wasn't but now it doesn't even have a month that it will be relased. when i thought it was coming out in june i had something to look forward to in the video game aspect of life now nothing... i want a release date dam it!!!! lol

rlucas1996

When is the DLC pack 3 coming out 4 WWE SVR09

rodrigo

forget it guys...if there are no word on the press at all, the game will not come out this week...i believe it wont be available in july.... and no word from fluffy logic or sony..... and i have to tell, its a joke try to get an answer from sony...did you guys already try it ? for anything?

Hi guys...got an answer from fluffylogic... they said that the DLC has already be delivered to Sony.... and Sony was waiting for a PSN slot...(thats his exacly words)... so guys, it is Sony that is holding the game, obviously trying to squeeze that extra bucks from its release....

godfather_of_dvd

Hi, folks I've reached 100%. It was very very hard. But thats the way - to play it for more than 5 weeks. If it is easier you reach 100% in one week - That's not very motivating. I loved this games. Hope that the DLC will come as soon as possible - Sony hurry up.

Husky510

Thanks for the news Rodrigo. Sony takes it time and can be very frustrating. I'm a part of the Motorstorm communitee and after the release of MS2, most of us had Data corruption problems. Evo made a patch 3months later , but Sony held it up a further 6 week. They stated it needed to be tested in all territories. We were desperate for that patch!! Savage Moon replay value is awesome, but Rasputin and myself are getting close to the limit , look for a 1 millon points full game score soon.

Allan

well that was kinda easy finished it in no time do you have a idea when it will be released like next 2-3 months???

Allen

Please DLC FAST!!!!!!!!!!!

been waiting for ages for this damn dlc,no info or updates given for passing the release date of june. fluffy logic, what the hell are you doing? you ruin the pick up play factor with that idiotic v2.00 patch and leave us in the dark. amatuer business at best. get on with it!!!!!!!

i just receive another email from a developer at fluffylogic.... again hi said that the DLC was finished and delivered to Sony about 2 weeks ago.... Sony is waiting for a PSN slot.... BS!!! Sony is holding it, because Sony created a time table for releases, so every week has at least one release...and we all know psn has few releases every month, so we have to wait sonys date.... its is frustrating this lack of information from Sony,.,, thats why sony loses money every year, lack of information management on the community side... i would buy fat princess, but i became so mad with sony that i will buy anything until the release of this DLC that was promised to june...

i start to think that this DLC was cancelled

Lisa

Fluffy Logic has just confirmed that Waldgeist is now available on the PSN. Enjoy Savage Moon fans!

savageboy

savage moon is excellent but wen the levels get harder i want there to be an IN-GAME save feature!! hated how i got so far in a hard level n died wen it wasnear the end. plus the in-game save feature would be awsome in vengeance mode. hope u developer guys add this on the next expasion, oh and more powerful towers!! wayyyyy more towers! xD

effestop

This game lacks the number 1 feature of every tower defence game: fast forward of enemies. The rest is perfect and amazing (now that ther's the flight path visible much more). Only Tower defense grid the awakeining on PC can beat it.

Husky510

Are you using the wave advance option. I dont think I could handle them coming any faster. In some of the early waves there is a bit of time. But later you'll wish you had more, try advancing every wave for extra money and points.

effestop

I wish you could fast forward the current wave when you know you cannot handle an other one but you want to end the current to get early the money. Think to slow moving enemy, you have to wait a whole minute sometime.
