do u use attack ground ? The range is 45 for sure the only way he hits u with the main canon fire is with some weird elevation bug
Yeah of course i do, after a few attempts at this they always got wrecked so i never bothered again, will try again tomorrow and reply with the results. |
bofors has 45 range while rakt has 55, how does it get hit ?
You sure? everytime i fire at max range they get wiped, could be an attack ground order on them with long scatter shots, but the dps is too consistent for that. |
nah u can play aggressively and never let them set up with tier 2, and 2 rakt while stealthed will deal some damage just make sure to retreat them afterwards
I always do, can't have vision everywhere at once though. All im getting from this though is that there is no counter to them. Raks die before they retreat lol, and they're only gonna rep that dmg before you bring them back out again. Everything in this game has a direct counter, everything except brit emplacments. |
I generally deal with it with a mix of Leig and rakt, then send lv/infantry when he brace, u can also use leig smoke to get close and tried flame nade
Don't have access to leig if i go tier 2, and rakt gets outranged so after one shot it gets insta wiped. Might have to always go tier one against brits. |
I tell you what, if you give up on axis, try playing brits. And try to win a match using bofors. I think it might be hard. It is also a quick way to get a lesson on countering it, right from your opponents.
I'll give it a go, thats a good suggestion. However it doesn't detract from the point that it ruins the pacing and fun in a match imo. I just have never understood why there is a need for them to be in the game. |
In this situation it was just on the road nearly covering my cutoff, the cutoff was covered by mg's that i couldnt flank because of the bofors. However its normally always situated on a VP. Its a garunteed vp until okw get armour unless they went tier one. It's just frustrating, i'm just gonna ignore axis because i honestly can't be bothered to deal with something like that.
Just saying ignore it just allows whereever they built it to always be theirs, if thats in a strong position its an easy free win off the snowball, whereas the axis player has to use about 5 units at once to try and deal with it. Just silly from a design perspective imo since it counters the best thing okw have, infantry. |
This would work if it was the only thing on the field but it never is so getting close to it isn't as easy as that. My issues with it is you click build and thats a huge issue for an okw player that will take a tonne of resource and micro to deal with. On the other hand the brit player doesn't have to micro anything, just dig in and sit on it. It's a terrible form of gameplay.
Back teching would be nice if okw wasn't fuel dependant, if you back tech it's basically GG, as you'll have rakettens to deal with his Churchill.
Its just an annoying addition to the game, i wish i could veto playing brits, this game would always be fun. |
Base was mined which nearly cost me my luch anyways, was crossroads so base entrance is pretty slim. I honestly dont understand why people think emplacements are okay, you just click build and there ya go a bofors that annihilates anything it sees. Not so bad against ost as paks can deal with it and they always have access to mortars, but okw are basically screwed against it. |
So this is a l2p issue so ima ask how to play, if i go tier 2 and they go for a bofors what can i possibly do against it? Puma can fire out its range but one brit at gun stops that idea, any tips for how to deal with the emplacements anyways? Thanks in advance. |
Thread: OKW UP?26 Sep 2018, 20:57 PM
OKW matches pretty fairly with sov and wehr... their winrates are overall pretty close... the only real factions with really low winrates is ukf and usf both of which need big buffs...
