Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 08:57 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2014, 08:47 AMVonIvan Defending myself, I am simply giving out the facts. Sometimes they hurt, and sometimes they need to be said so people know the truth. It is meant to be a contribution to the conversation. And there is a right place for it. Every time a thread about new content starts it usually has some good speculations and discussions and then gets highjacked by these kinds of comments, until it devolves into vapid insults directed at the devs and arguments about who commited the worse warcrimes. It's getting late and I need to go to sleep. Hopefully this thread remains strong while I'm asleep. It is useful for a lot of people who want to know more about the new factions. In: Lobby
Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 08:45 AM Oh look it's the doomsayers come to ruin yet another perfectly good thread. can't we just talk about future content without ranting how the game is dead. In: Lobby
Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 08:02 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2014, 07:55 AMAffe The OKW sounds exciting to me. Looks like an outnumbered Elite Army.Did the OKW also have the best infantry in the game?Or only the strongest tanks? Cant talk about OKW infantry. It;s not on the all powerful list. In: Lobby
Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 07:04 AM The bazookas functionally work similar to panzerschrecks so expect their AI to be alike, but I'm really not that attuned with the specifics stats, nor can I really talk about them. As for the sherman, all I can say is that the normal one does not have an upgun upgrade. In: Lobby
Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 06:48 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2014, 06:37 AM89456132 Do the weapon racks have infinite supply? If someone keeps losing their units will every infantry squad on the map end up having a BAR, for example? (If they are droppable.) Are there more alpha invite waves? You don't run out of guns, but you have to purchase each one you take even after getting the upgrade. So they are far from free. I see new people on the alpha forum all the time, so they must still be letting people in. In: Lobby
Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 06:25 AM Also something you might have missed in the american statement. All infantry can upgrade weapons from their shack when it's purchased. Not just the riflemen. Also the M4s have gyro stabilizers and can fire accurately even on the move. In: Lobby
Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 06:02 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2014, 06:01 AMbraciszek Rather flexible, and good for assault. Something interesting - all vehicles have manpower upkeep, right? When an American tank crew leaves its tank, does the overall manpower upkeep change to that of the squad? In other words, if i am starved for manpower and i have a small company of tanks, can i simply abandon all the vehicles for a while to get a small boost in manpower income? Having control over abandoning vehicles is a powerful tool. Sorry, I don't think I can answer this one. It's a bit too specific. In: Lobby
Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 05:55 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2014, 05:50 AMbraciszek M20 - how does it function? Its on the list, and is lightly armed. What role does it fit? Ah yes the M20. almost forgot. -The M20 is basically a greyhound without the turret, just a browning LMG up top. -Can upgrade it's armor with sideskirts for increased durability. -Crew comes armed with a bazooka. -Can lay AT mines -Vet lets it pop smoke on itself to escape. As far as it's role it is a bit like the 221, but it has a bunch of stuff that lets it be useful in a variety of situations. In: Lobby
Thread: Hands on Western Fronts Armies30 May 2014, 05:49 AM Jump back to quoted post30 May 2014, 05:46 AMMr. Someguy Here's one. Can you break the resource system like CoH1 USA + Brit? Like can you park a OKW Resource Truck on a Fuel Point with an Opel Blitz to get stupidly high fuel income? I actually hope not, but I'm curious. Please ensure you don't talk about: - Resource systems - Tech trees - War Spoils - Any bugs or technical issues - Any balance issues related to either factions or specific units - War Spoils (Loot system) - Custom games Sorry buddy. That's a no no. In: Lobby

Also, is there a limit on how many sturmtigers you can field? No limits on any of the tanks, but there is a good reason you won't see too many of them. In: Lobby
