Almost nobody participated in the previous ESL Tourneys. No point to launch that again. |
Xcom for president! |
I like Partisans because they offer a different playstyle. It belongs to the commanders that can make the game much more interesting than the boring call in bullshit. I usually drop from the game as soon as it gets to this point. |
Just to point one thing (the biggest issue) out:
It is most important where you send your units. They fight on their on. You are the American player. You have mobile infantry and you should use that. You've got to spread out and not blob everything. This works in 4v4 I guess, but in 1v1 I'd be happy when I am your enemy. It is incredibly predictable --> I'd know where to position my MGs and just counter you. I'd never have to worry about flanks and can just focus on one side. The Axis factions are designed so, that they need to focus on a side in the early game. You play in their hands.
This is the reason why you want to spread your units out as US. Because if your opponent (especially Ostheer) is dumb enough to do the same to follow you, he is gardened.
Summary: Spread your units out, coordinate good flanks where spreaded units come together from different directions. being everywhere is a pain for your enemy! |
Two weeks left in the year, can't wait for the announcement. Gonna be epic, with months to plan and time to enough to spare for a documentary on the bulge. They must have something big up their sleeve.
What do you guys think? big Relic money, tourneys, multiple leagues?, Pro Teams?
Can't wait (especially since a balance patch HAS to go with it right?)
t-minus 13 days!
Pro Teams? lol. This games community is too small to have professional players.
I agree with kreatiir |
the game only transfers what is stored in the replay file.
If you play 1h, you'd get an 1-2MB file. That is all you need. problems
That fast forwarding issue doesnt come from the internet connection. I've heard of people who got a new computer, which fixed it. |
"Ober" just means that the grade of the soldier is higher than of others. It also refers to the word "oben" which freely translated means in englisch "above". A german military rank for example is "Oberst".
It is a legit german word. I do not have a problem with it. |
I think this is something for larger team games. 2 factions on each side already have a FHQ (USF, OKW). I dont think Ostheer needs one. They can build a forward reinforcement point by building a bunker. U cannot retreat to it, but you can pull your units back and reinforce. Soviets can build it by using a commander, but that doesnt count I guess.
I am fine with the whole thing. Only soviets are lacking on forward stuff, but you can use your teammates FHQ to heal up as this is a topic for larger maps i.e. team games. |
I like feature! No need to turn it off. Don't behave like kids. This is just a way to rear you guys. Growing up is a painful process, u got to life with it. |
I cannot comment on if it is useless or not, but if it is - I love it!
The idea of super ranged heavies destroys a part of the game imo. Those units are too easy to use for their outcome. Sitting in a different part of the map and shoot everything seems not right |
