seems i had to face terrible oppenents then since i won most of my soviets game.
whatever
How many games? You can't just try out a faction for 10 games and say "oh this is easy, LOL"
The matchmaker doesn't even give you a BALANCED match up until you've played 20-30 games... Let alone a high level matchup where people actually play properly..
bibi I'm also curious as to how allies are SoOoOoOo OP in your hands and in your mind, when you don't have a notable win ratio with allies at all in any mode, played 0 USF games, and you're primarily an axis player.
There's this thing called "know your enemy."
I'll bet my left nut you come back in a few days with the same or similar win ratio you have as axis once you've actually tried allies for a similar amount of time. |
Playing this game since launch, it's REALLY funny to read posts like this,boy have times changed.
Newbie's point of view:
Imho (Axis) (especially OKW) are just like.. "idiotproof", not necessarily OP.
Which means that they forgive more mistakes. That makes them more accessible to newbies and also that makes them especially dangerous in hands of a "pro" player.
(USF) can win against (OKW,)but player has to put much more effort in that.
I keep playing (USF) even though it's really frustrating to lose most of the time.
You could put any faction in the parenthesis and SOMEONE somewhere would agree with it.

what are the stats for the M10's gun? (pen/damage?) how does this compare to the M36?
M10:180/160/140, 160 damage
M36,240/220/200 200 damage,240 with AP rounds
I'd say they're now pretty similar, but the jacksons longer range and more pen and damage with AP rounds gives the edge to the Jackson at "duke it out" engagements, while the M10 is better at bum rush flanking now with the HP buff. |
maybe like a 5 minute cooldown on the CAS conversion? |
Hmmm,I've been using the Stuka, but I think I don't know how to use it well enough, should I use it like clicking on that IS2? or Should be something diferente? Is there anywhere I can know how it Works exactly.
The stuka close air support LOITER targets anything within a big circle(the center of the circle is where you call the ability) that appears on the HUD.
It will attempt to target tanks and vehicles first,and then infantry
The best way to use it is to click the area where the IS2 is,and where it will try to reverse to as it's escaping the first pass.
If you dont call it in deep enough in enemy territory,the IS2 or vehicle your targeting may reverse out of the targetting circle before the stuka makes its killing pass. |
Cookiezncreem I think some cp costs are unupdated, its not major, but its good to keep them with current costs. Also, is the Jaeger doctrine useful?
I've been trying to find a good way to conter IS-2, but I cannot find, the Paks sometimes do help, but its quite complicated, as he can get 2, and panzers 4 so far haven't been enough to kill them, at least for me, its hard to micro one tank, two is even worse =/
Should I invest them in going straight to T4? or call some panzers to keep presence and then slowly wiat for the Panther?
The "meta" or common solution is to go T3,get 1 Panzer IV, then save and stall for tiger tank instead of T4.
There are also doctrines that allow you to skip even T3.(mech assault)
You just get a STUG E or two then wait for tigers.
To kill the IS2 EASILY you must plant Teller mines, with two Pak40s.(hopefully vet 1 for target weak point)
Elefant is good too, but you'll have to play solid because elefant is dead weight against enemy infantry and AT gun fortification
Tiger is better because it can do it all. |
Regarding the map,you started on the favorable side for Ostheer.
Bazookas,not that I know of,dont have any special accuracy against the sniper or infantry. I think thats horrible luck.
Regarding the replay..
Think about and know what you buy when you buy it.
A good hint is to check soviet base through Fog of War for tech structures periodically. This allows you to pick the appropriate units and counters before they arrive or as they arrive,predict your enemies strategy.
So if you see no structures,then its Conscript spam(which you had to deal with,with the inappropriate counters)
So a more appropriate counter to 4x cons into shocks is 4x grens +MG and your pios with a flamer into T2 and 25(1) halftrack for forward presence,,instead of what you did.
If you see a Tier 3 Tankoviy command building,then you probably wouldnt have went for 250 halftrack with PGrens,right? You wouldve went for a Pak. That messed you up bad too,thats alot of MP for basically dead weight after its initial arrival.
I think that was a huge part of what wrong this game,be more efficient with what you buy as ostheer or you wont get enough mileage out of your units,you wont be able to do much of anything. Youll just sit there and bleed resources/MP and lose by VP and pressure to capture VP,which is what you did.
Dont buy units or use abiltiies out of emotion.. think about effeciency at all times,or you'll bleed yourself dry,which you did.
a quick quiz,if you dont mind.
Should you get Pios with flames or a mortar to clear buildings full of Conscripts,5 mins into the game. Which unit can you get more mileage and use out of throughout the whole game?
On the flipside,Same choice;upgrade Pios with flames, or mortar?
but your dealing with buildings full of Maxims. Which unit makes more sense in the long run??
You have 60 munitions. Its 10 minutes into the game,and your opponent has the T3 structure up.(either a T34 or a T70 coming soon)
You've been starved of munitons all game. Your grenadiers dont have LMGs and your facing guards with DPs. What do you do? plant a teller mine(which one shots the T70,and will cripple the T34) Or buy an LMG for your grenadiers?
You must make these important decisions throughout the entire game,unlike any faction,Ostheer does not have "no brainer" upgrades that you can just casually buy. you MUST think about before you buy or you'll simply be too far behind to come back,at least in 1v1.

Thread: BAR's15 Apr 2015, 02:37 AM
So with the new patch, are BAR's worth it against OKW since Volks no longer shrug off bullets?
they only scaled down vet 5,and I'm pretty sure volks still get stupid amounts of reduced received accuracy from vet 1-4. If you gonna go for ANTi Volks I'd do flame throwers on rifles since they ignore the received accuracy buffs.
Even then,M1919 either on paras or rifles anyday till they get nerfed. |
Accuracy is better than the reload?
TheEvilAdventurer: Forgive me, but I don't understand, what you mean by adv and dis?
Me knows not how to quote.
A bit off-topic, I realise some strategy guides are not updated, what is needed to update them?
which guides do you feel aren't updated? |
I'm doing some randoms (losing some randoms), trying to git gud. Hard to go from no games to beating a top 300 1's player in an afternoon
I'm just proud of you for losing your 1v1 virginity |
