Hi all
I was looking into some intel bulletin in the mod tool and I was curious about the search_tags, it doesn't seem to use unit_type or squad_type so how does it can identify which unit to applies the effect to? By name? |
I don't see why a soft nerf to CB to Brit CB really helps an ability that not OP nor UP in its own right. Making similar to Brit CB not making any sense because, unlike Brit CB, you paid your MP, FU, and Pop for it while Brit CB available without any cost, doesn't have to build, and can't get bomb, might as well not using that ability and save you some Muni and increased your APM by 3. while it was a bit questionable ability when it was designed, it by far not the most OP thing that people really claim to be (More of a general hated toward indirect fire in the first place). Best option is to rework/replace it with something else of a change is needed. IMO, it fine for 8 years, it fine for another until we have the best solution |
I really wonder how many people start to learn that for often than not, player targetted is way better and the only reason why CB is so effective is that they played against people who didn't know how it works? |
You can nuke ml20 howitzers too, what's your point?
The point is even it has an "OP" ability, it still being lock behind vet and it can get nuke more reach vet 1 no matter which Stationary Arty that it on so why even cares do start this entire ordeal in the first place? Stationary Arty is hot trash and it been like this for a while |
It shouldn't be so binary. It's fine that they can be killed, but you simply can't /do/ anything with the unit if the opponent has an adequate offmap, and that's the issue. Conversely, if your opponent DOESN'T have an adequate offmap, the thing is practically untouchable.
Come on man, you know the point he's making isnt "It shouldn't be able to be killed", it's that the unit type may as well not exist if your opponent has certain offmap options.
Which it actually not exist that much in rank 100 that I usually played. The point is, if you don't have the tool, you are a huge disadvantage to deal with a situation. Well too bad if you just keep picking a doctrine at 0 min of the game |
Oh noooooo, 400 manpower and 40 fuel!!!! It should be a wunderwaffe!!! Theres nothing so expensive in the game, it has to be uncounterable!!!
Oh no, all I lose in munition while I can keep grinding his manpower away while he keeps building those LeFh that I can bomb for the next 40 second
You can give the CB a pin point accuracy tracking and I hardly care since it a unit that can't even move to dodge anything unlike SPG and anyone can just nuke it |
Dog, that wasnt the only CB to exist and its also its a mortar so its not sniping 130 fuel vehicles after one HALF a barrage. Other CBs got removed or nerfed like pip commented on. Do you remember this game in like 2013-14? Huge changes have happened since then, big overhauls, new units all kinds of things. So it used to be quite different.
Then about a combo less than 250 munitions to snipe out a unit that cost 400 Mp and 40 FU anywhere on the map then? |
Make CB require micro practically does nothing since a competent player will not allow it to even exist in the first place anyway. Static Arty suck and the only real thing it really does is seal clubbing newbies no don't know how to counter it |
The issue is that CB was removed off other units for being unbalanced and a no skill micro ability, why does it get left on Lefh? The static howizters aren't shit, theyre just not as good as a static howitzer that kills things without having to micro so you can spend your attention resource elsewhere on the map while your opponent shift-u's a bunch of reverse orders and hope to god it wont hit him behind the fucking base lol.
At bare minimum if CB is kept on the weapon the range needs to be shortened drastically for the ability. I think we can all agree a howitzer killing your base sector on certain maps is a serious balance/design problem? If not, Id like to be able to call my offmaps on their base sector again please.
Do anyone want to tell him about the buff to Ost Mortar CB that got a range buff? |
