I wish it was the same as a vet 3 tiger but with cool abilities. I.e he rounds and ap rounds, a sight increase when commander comes out, or some other ability that makes it an ace, not just double the armor. Oh and a self repair ability for 60 munis for 25 secs or something. That would really make the tiger "feel " like an ace, some cooler skins too?
So basically change stats to vet 3 tiger and keep the rest as is (income stop). Other than that I'm not sure, I personally don't think it's OP as I have played against it and won and played with it and lost. |
Those losses were my fault completely. Bad tank micro especially with the t34/85s. The point being is u got to stick it out. I could have rammed him with the first 2 t34s but I failed. |
Tiger ace is easymode. I laugh when it comes out and say "what a sucker". Then I power up my t34s for ramming attacks and fancy laser light shows. |
I am speaking strictly from 1v1s.
Just had a tiger ace game as a soviet and got the armored assault doctrine (amazing doc btw) and waited. It was a pretty evenly matched game, he built some real painful units and vetted them pretty quick. I was dealing with vet 3 sniper and vet 3 pgrens with shreks and one without most of the game. Whenever there was a lull in the fighting I put down mines. I mined the bridge to my base (semois), I mined the crossroads and I mined everywhere I felt he would take his tiger.
Well around 7 CPs he still had a good amount of infantry and I had 2 t34s, a double vet at gun and 4 vetted cons. I felt I was ready. With radio intercept I knew the TA was coming. I braced myself and hope he would hit a mine. To my chagrin he bypassed all my mines and didn't take any roads. I sent in my t34s to ram since my is2 was almost ready to come out, sent my cons, and sent my at gun. The t34s exploded, my at gun got some decent penetrating shots injuring him a little, and my cons got the 4th at nade to do engine damage. In the course of that same battle my is2 hit the field and got there as my armor and at gun were gone. The is2 went to battle for a minute or so before I pulled back badly damaged. The TA was also damaged pretty good but my opponent also had vet 3 pios, my infantry was already chased off the field from his attacking infantry accompanying the tiger.
Ok I'm rambling so long story short I lost the is2 shortly after, another at gun, and 2 t34/85s. However, his once invisible infantry were not showing up in the field fully reinforced. I knew he was out of reinforcements. I got one more t34 and sent it in with another at fun and finally got the outcome I wanted, the ram was succesful (first try) and he had no gun and heavy engine damage. Then I just let my at gun do all the work. Point is, just stick it out vs the TA. Eventually he will have no infantry and you will have moments to reinforce. It's not OP at all. |
Double post soz soz |
Wait wait wtf... I just realized the replay system is down!!!! Wtf so I got more crashes after this patch, still no fix to cancel mines or performance, a weird vehicle bug in semois, and lots of angry players.
Seriously I have tried to be optimistic and shut my mouth where I could but this is unacceptable. I would love for the performance issues, input/lag to be addressed ASAP along with the things broken by PATCHES (semois bug and cancel mines and replays) And did anyone else get tricked into thinking rails and metal was going to be a 1v1 map?? Argghhhggg!!!!!!!!
Relic on my friends!! Let's fix issues players have been reporting for month first!!! |
Tiger Ace and Tigers should have limited call ins like in vCoH |
I also feel my TA gets damaged by ram and at nades everytime. |

Combat engies And pios with flamers are very unreliable. |
Mortar the area around the tiger and engineers die, with no replacements available it's gg. Tiger ace is well balanced in my opinion. Some may not like the doctrine as a whole, but it's not OP by any means. Not like the sowjet industry. And 100% my tiger has been deemed worthless by rams. Heavily damaged when it got at nades and constantly hit by su85. The is2 even gave my tiger ace a real battle before I pulled it back and spent the game repairing it.
The tiger ace is gg when it comes out and the majority of the German army is still in tact. But ppl don't use it smartly. Even then it's still a huge risk, one arty strike or strafe run can severely damaged the German army. |
