Unfortunately, without even some sort of guide to land your shots, it’s not much easier to do any real damage without a lot of perservance and a little luck. In fairness, there are some other weapon types in which this problem is somewhat mitigated, such as miniguns and ballistas that fire directly upon their targets.
It feels like you have to be some manner of rocket scientist if you want any hopes of landing consistent damage, especially once wind factors into the equation. The distances between forts are so long that you’ll spent shot after shot trying to line up the exact power and angle of your projectile, only to watch go sailing far overhead your target and into the water below. Trying to accurately aim weapons in Worms 3D was a difficult experience for several reasons, and it’s only gotten worse here. This is about the most help you’re going to get. Capture five and you’ll be able to build a Wonder, giving the other teams only two turns to destroy it before you instantly win the match. With each building you place upon one, you get access to new and more powerful structures. You’ll also want to be on the lookout for “victory locations” – construction points marked with a star. Your stronghold is the most important building of all – if it’s ever destroyed, you’re out of the game, no matter how many worms you have left. Whatever you place down, however, has to be placed next to your ‘stronghold’ or be part of a chain leading up to it. Forts takes more after the old games that inspired it, in that the smartest thing to do is generally stay where you are, launch long distance attacks, and try and get closer and closer to landing a direct hit.Įach turn, aside from firing off a weapon, your worm is capable of placing a structure on one of the various construction points scattered around the field. With the flat, mostly featureless terrain, new weapons on offer, and the long distances between each team’s origin point, going for direct combat with the enemy makes for a very poor choice. While play still follows the direct control of one worm at a time, play transferring from team to team, how you actually battle your opponents is far different.

Instead, it’s all about a concept previously unknown to the series – building a base, defending it from attackers, and destroying the structures of all your foes. And that’s especially sad, since it’s the most the series will break from its usual fare for quite some time.įorts isn’t to be confused with the mode of the same name seen in previous Worms games. Whatever the case, for several reasons, It doesn’t really work. Perhaps Team 17 felt like Worms 3D wasn’t quite what fans were looking for, or perhaps it was another attempt at keeping the series fresh. It never was entirely clear why Forts diverges from the usual formula quite so much. It’s somewhat frustrating to talk about Forts for too long, as it’s more or less a promising idea that simply just didn’t work in practice.
