crosspost because relevant:

come to think of it, actually, iirc, there already was a thread about this, probably during closed beta. a relic dev answered to a remark kolaris made, criticizing the move to get rid of the 3 tiered short/medium/long range system to near/far... and iirc, it actually was different than how i explained it above. can't recall exactly how it worked, but i am quite certain that it came down to a simplified form of having a three tiered range system... if only this site had a search function or a "show all threads with posts from this member" function or something like that...

anyways, just because i like numbers, i will look up the stats when i get home from work. maybe it'll come back to me.

Am I the only one who noticed that typos that have been in alpha have still not been corrected? Or missing information hasn't been added? Or that new "inaccuracies" have been added?

Take the menu for example... say you play a 1v1 automatch... you press F10, the Menu says "Paused", when the game is actually still running normally.
There's quite a few typos, especially in german words (which is somewhat understandable, if it weren't for pretty much all of those typos having been pointed out in beta at the latest; didn't have access to alpha forums): Ostruppen -> Osttruppen, Schildkroteberg/Schildkröteberg -> Schildkrötenberg, (Shlisselburg seems weird, but is actually a correct english transliteration of the russian name for the city with the german name Schlüsselburg), and some more i can't think of at the moment (the very obvious "veterency" typo was corrected though).
Also: if i pick up weapons with a squad, apart from the little indicator below the units shield, there is no way of knowing what kind of weapons this squad has picked up, or how many. Was it THIS guard squad that picked up the schreck? Was it the other one? Can't tell unless i zoom in and look at every individual squad member.

Granted, this game hasn't been out for long, but considering that some of these "bugs" were already in alpha, and have been pointed out by closed beta at the latest... at least some of that stuff should have gotten fixed. the german sometimes seems almost as bad as the english in Zero Wing.

Currently, when i visit the page, i see 2-3 posts when it's set to 10, when i up the number to 20 for example, i see maybe 8 or 9 posts and so on.
i guess something was changed there?

afaik it works the same way for infantry too. else the system would be retardedly stupid and complicated.
