I don't really understand what's wrong was with those doctrines. They were really uniqe and provided to you very specific way of playing. That was interesting, unusual... Right now those doctrines are same boring shit, as all others. I liked Elite doctrine, Industry was only doctrine, that could make T-34-76 spam real, Riflemans with veterancy were sweet...
So much good things they ruined for strange purpouse... |
Armor is the best USF doctrine...no, airborne...no, rifle!
Wait, they're all very good except for Recon, which blows
Armor? You mean with M10s and Dozers? Yea, then the best OKW doctrine is Feuersturm...
But seriously, point is not that "some doctrines good - some bad". It is actuall for all factions, even UKF got Royal Artillery...
Point is - doctrinal recon, which is pretty same to non-doctrinal makes doctrines worse, because it steals entire ability position, which could be used for something more useful. |
I don't know how you list the top commanders and leave out rifle company. Best doctrine.
Oh, yea true, that one is good also. Was better, before all "uniqe" doctrines went through "doctrinal socialism" and lost their specific abilities. Elite axis... Soviet industry... come baaacckk!!! |
USF is full of pretty useless abilities in doctrines. Can say, that USF have maybe 3-4 only useful doctrines - Pershing, Airborn, Priest and Calliope doctrines. All others are pretty trashy.
There a lot of obviously bad doctrinal abilties, like Elite Crews, which people asking to do something about since WFA started. Some off-map arty strikes are poor, M3 with engineers in mid game is also very cool and useful...
But that's for another topic - our problem is reconnaissance plane abilities. Why are they problem?
Simple - we have undoctrinal recon-planes in Major abilties. They are not perfect, but that's not hard to learn how they work and use it as undoctrinal sight.
So, if I have undoctrinal recon-planes... what for I need them again in doctrines? Wouldn't be better to place something more useful, instead of that ability in doctrines.
That's just ridiculous - imagine, that axis with undoctrinal Panthers will have in half of their doctrines (and a lot of USF doctrines have that recon-ability) same Panther-call-in without any bonuses, not like Panther-Commander. Just same Panther. I guess you will ask "shit, what for I need it in doctrines, if I have it already without any?! They just made half of my doctrines more useles, than they could be!!".
So... just change that recon-plane ability with something more useful. Let's make shitty USF doctrines more effective. |
Someone have problem with TM mines? Really?
Guys, for you they added such cool thing like "Minesweeper". Costs only 30 muni! Just like 1 mine itself.
Use them, folks. If you don't want to use them, then play in russian rullet with your units. Choise is yours. |
would have loved to see the SU-100.
But srsly IS-3? Thats just an overkill it would roflstomp everything...
Well, as I said, IS-3 would be really strange, but still - why not? Sturmtiger, produced in 18 number and almost never used in real combats - OK, IS-3 - bad. Logic?
SU-100 would be great really, or BS-3 at least. And whad do we thing about additional infantry guns? More modern - more powerfull. |
Im not into making another SU faction but some new commanders for OST and SU with some late-war new units would be great...
Just sayin' Relic.... $ $ $ $ $ $ $

Didn't you say you were going to make an Axis thread next, like 4 threads ago?
2 threads ago, and I didn't find something that speificly bad in axis, which really deserves thread or weren't discussed already. Everyone discussed about "Sturmtiger sux", "2cm Flak Emplacement is trash", "MP-40 SMG is worst SMG in game - why!?"... Only thing which I really want for axis right now is Hummels for OKW instead of Flamenhetzer - I already suggested it.
But... maybe later, while I play as Axis I will find something, but now I like axis factions as they are. Only need something "counter-arty" for OKW, cos im fkin tired of unstopable barrages on my HQ from everything! |
Why don't you understand back when the game was released it was to present the entire eastern front fight and after WFA it has changed without touching of old factions
Well, but even easter factions are not "time-balanced". Ostheers still have Panthers, still have STGs against T-34-76s and Mosins. |
It is a game it has its own design. Design is Ok.
Just there is no late game infantry or scale it for late game.
Secondly, As Luvnest says : "I don't want to stuck with T34-76"
So the answer, is need to do something with it. Thats it.
Well, some of those things could make soviet late more efficient. |
