Hi guys, i think this behavior should be categorized as a bug. As you all know the AA Half-track is a special unit as it needs to be in reverse to attack. But the problem comes when you explicitly click on a unit u want it to shot at, then the Half-track tries to rotate so it can face the enemy unit directly, then it rotates again somehow until it starts to shot. Not once did this behavior caused the unit to die.
And one more point, the priority target for the unit are infantry and not vehicles, as i am not sure if this should be so. If an enemy 222 and a grenadier come into its firing range the half-track shoots at the grenadiers.

The USF officers behavior is really strange. The Lt. and Capt. always jump, sprint, search for cover before shooting. Their behavior is rather ridiculous. Often the Capt. suicide jumps into tanks before firing his first shot with the bazooka. How many times did my Lt. loose a fight because he jumped from cover to cover before firing actually back. Why cant the captain just fire like the Volks? They just stop and fire their schreck. |
an amazing list. great work cruzzi.
Cruzzi a question for you. Whats with the USF Captain, why does he jump arround, sprint, suicide before shooting the bazooka? |
brad could you look at the USF captain? He is currently the biggest noob on the battlefield. Is his aristocratic blood the reason behind it? He jumps, sprints, crawls, suicides into a tank and then fires maybe one bazooka shoot. Funny how some peasants aka. volks can fire schrecks so much better then some American aristocrat. |

Isn't the 222 buff simply too much vs USF (not talking about Sov).
-1_ Sniper still have his incredibly RoF. As USF unless a lucking flank you are most likely going to hurt him a bit only.
-2_ 222 doesn't cost anymore ammo for its upgrade. the time to get the 5 more fuel is lower than the time to upgrade the 221 to 222. So the only difference is in the ammo cost + faster on the field = lowest m20 dominance on the field.
-3_ instead of saving your ammo for an early 222, you can safely build a medic bunker really fast early game.
-4_ Sniper has now access to a faster healing bunker + a stronger and faster 222 to cover him from m20.
-5_ You can replace the medic bunker by faust if you don't need it that early.
I'm planing to play Ostheer this next patch and this is clearly the idea I have in mind for a BO vs USF.
against ostheer the m20 wasn't a really good choice even now before this patch. 3-4 grenadier squads with panzerfaust, pak, 222 everything ostheer builds in the early stage can destroy it easily. Try the AA halftrack or go captain and stuart and if the game lasts longer then 15CP backtech to the M20 for AT mines if you didnt go armor with demo charges and 5amo mines combo. |
The Captain needs an urgent fix. The constant jumping, searching for cover, jumping, running into a tank, jumping outside of bazooka range before actually firing a single bazooka shot is really really annoying. It didn't happen to me once that i flanked a scout car or a PIV or flak HT and i lost the whole squad because the Captain wasn't able to shot a single shot in like an eternity. I also love when they suicide jump into a PIV before firing a shot.
Solution: Just make them shot the bazooka like the Volks do. The volks just stop and shot instantly.
I so want to go captain first tech, i love the pack and the stuart now, but i always think what should i do with the captain? |
