Thanks for the pics and stuff. |
Seems like "Hammer" and "Anvil" wasn't that far fetched after all...

Wasn't there a thread about that coupl'o'days ago already? As far as I remember there are only 3 problems with the faction that result in many of the symptoms people are apparently trying to fight individually, which won't work.
1. Riflemen bleed is too harsh in late game, especially since Vet lacks something to help the one and only USF main infantry to survive the multiple threads that arrive by then.
2. Where other factions simply research an unlock and/or contruct a building in order to enable another tier, USF has to call in a more or less useful unit (very subjective topic) that takes up pop, thus reducing manpower income. Coupled with point 1 this is a very serious issue.
3. Last but certainly not least, BARs themselves suck. As someone pointed out, the flamethrower is better in all cases, albeit doctrinal. The problem is, if you straight up buff BARs, it will become too strong in the "wrong" hands, like with Paras or Pathfinders. Or vetted Obers. |
The sniper isn't doctrinal, that is a AT Weapons Squad in the doctrine not the AT Sniper.
Man this was a hard day for me, clearly. |
Is there a VoD for the presentation? |
Comet is unlocked at the end of the tech tree with hammer unlock. Its all on the unit profiles.
k thx ^.^
All UKF commanders abilities share a cool down, but in return cost very little to use.
Sounds like Brits will have obvious windows of vulnerability then.
EDIT: Meh, sucks that the sniper is doctrinal. |
So... where is the Comet? I thought it was doctrinal? lel
And those artillery abilities sound kinda broken... "on the frontlines"... so basically everywhere my territory borders on the enemies'? How much muni will that costs... |
Who builds the caches in 1vs1 for OKW? Who gets 2 KTs in 1vs1?
Noone which is exactly the point. Deal with them in team games. |
Note: I was in alpha and I almost won EVERY match against Brits when using OST sniper from the fact they couldn't do a bloody thing. Did you know what those Brits did who won? Broken Commandos was the only thing they could do to take out my OST Sniper.
Makes one miss the sniping ability from Tommy Squads in vCoH: Opposing Fronts. Don't want the basic infantry to be as expensive again, tho. |
Yeah, something needs to be done against WM sniper. It's already overperforming currently, and if it stays the same on 9/3 then UKF will never find its footing in this game.
UKF, the faction predicted to be so overpowered it doesn't stand a chance against a sniper. |
