i feel like you need 2 halftracks to take down aircrafts. The turret turn rate is to slow. Anyone else noticed this?

It's AA is pathetic - by the time 1 has shot down strafe, it's already made 5 passes and forced mass retreat.

1 can still shoot down planes fairly reliably. Positioning is key, just off the main flight path is good as your M5 doesn't spend the whole time rotating its turret. Also make sure you guy isn't shooting enemy units instead of aircraft.

2 would obviously do better than 1 one though if you have the resources to spare. Currently, it's almost a necessity in team games that at least one player gets an upgunned M5.

The high value of AA is currently only caused by strafe being bugged, which will be patched soon.

I find it works best if parked in the back lines close to your base, maybe even in your base on small maps. The plane will always come from the enemy base, and then in a small angle towards your M5.

Aren't they fixing the strafe run in the next patch?

I feel like it does a well enough job taking out aircraft. It isn't 100% though. Others probably know more than I do.

Lady Xenarra: Does anyone else think that USF needs buffs? It feels like they’re on life support sometimes

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money
27 Mar 2025, 15:46 PM
Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.
27 Mar 2025, 09:34 AM
Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.
27 Mar 2025, 09:32 AM
Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.
27 Mar 2025, 09:30 AM
Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy :clap:
