mus to learn many of u still have...
patience
im sure hubert is workin as fast/best he can under the circumstances
better to be taking a while longer than rush the development
patience young padawans....
quicker, easier it would be to simply release the game, or a demo, but wise it would not be
come the time will,for release
patience young ones....
-
wat is taking so long lol?
-
i did it once i think
then another time i invaded norway, then sweden thru the west of course
-
ireland and the rest, corsica, sardinia, crete etc, need ports
sardinia was actually invaded IIRC
and of course there should be at least a major port near paris
tho ireland is useful as a training ground
-
not even a conservative ETA?
-
patience young padawan
be mindful of your thoughts they betray you
if u choose the quick and easy path as vader did, u will become an agent of evil
PATIENCE
-
GRRR
that sux
do U know?
-
wats the ETA for this demo ?
-
right now sum of u may be thining - what?
just like today, the militaries of the allies and axis had spec op units and missions of course, and they were the pioneers of spec ops
units like a miale - "pig", for the italians that would come in and if i remember right, either torpedo or attach explosives to enemy ships
the german seehund "seal" which would cum in and fire torps at an enemy ships, then, either ram a ship, or escape
the british X-craft, which succeeded in severely damaging the battleship tirpitz in the norweigan fjiords
the japanese midget subs, which would creep in, fire torps, and either ram or leave (obviously not included as this is the ETO)
i cant remember if the USN had anything, ill have to do sum research
but anyway wat does every1 think about these units and missions?
worthwile?
-
i agree with that
tho a ?
with the subs, did u give the axis control of the port of constantinople?
if u didnt, then of course, all those boats would be bottled up in the black sea
the AI definitel needs to be more agressive, i agree
ive left britain with NO GROUND TROOPSS, and the axis didnt even TRY to invade, and i know they could see cuz i they had fighters, and they were raiding near manchester, so they had pretty good L.O.S.
i like that instruction set too
makes perfect sense
how about -
Bold = Will try sumthing akin to the taranto raid
Kamikaze = will try anything to win any battle, and will continuously launch spec ops units - more on this in my next post
any thouts?
-
hey guys (and girls?)
been playing SCET quite a bit recently
and i m in the middle of playing the allies and ridding europe of the nazi scum
and ill admit, things were not going so good
1. i had launched an early DDAY invasion, and it was recently pushed back into the channel with quite a few losses
2. i had invaded and secured NW africa, and tripoli
3. i had invaded sicily, and secured it
4. i had invaded mainland italy, and secured bari, and taranto, and i was just south of rome, wen a stroke of luck for the axis resulted in my forces being pusheddown the italian peninsula, nearly being flanked and pushed right OFF into the Med (it just stabilized)
5. and in russia, things were even worse-
leningrad, stalingrad AND moscow were gone, along with a few other cities
then i saw an opportunity on the russian front, and i ATTACKED with EVERYTHING i had
needlessly to say i took sum heavy losses, but the axuis forces seemed to be WITHDRAWING
whether this was from partisans or sumthing i jus dunnno, but they were withdrawing so i ATTACKED
and they offered very LITTLES resistance, so naturally, i kept advancing
its now about 9 months later (game time of course lol) and im AT the POLISH border, having retaken just about everything except leningrad, riga and odessa !
i mean, at that point in the war, the Axis was doing VERY good, and then they just withdrew, i was like WTF lol?
and now, the red army is even bigger than it was in 41, and im about ready to cross into poland, and of course, once germany falls, i will have flanked the defenders in northern italy, and they simply wont have a chance
funny how sumthing on ONE front can change EVERYTHING huh?
anything like this ever happen to u lol?
-
as we all know, the allies invaded North africa in november of 1942, in operation torch
it was regarded as "too soon" by many, and the operation was given only a 50% chance of success
the objective, was to attack the flank of the afrika korps, and eventually corneer and defeat them, which was accomplished only a few months later
anyway
they landed near casablanca, took the city if i remember right, and advanced
however as we all know, u cannot go thru the high atlas mountains, cuz they block the advance
will this be remedied to allow an allied invasion of northwestern africa?
-
i agree with that, tho it just seems weird to not have it in
and it makes it more realistic
plus wen ur the allies u can use cherbourg to -
A. evac the allied army and get the french army to safety before france collapses
B. use it to reinforce allied lines during the battle of france
C. invade there and temporarily bypass Brest
or maybe instead we we could have Le Havre?
it just seems weird to not have it in ya know?
-
i noticed a while ago that not all the allied, axis aircraft were the same
does this mean u can decide which fighters - IE -
P38, P40, Thunderbolt
ETC will comprise the unit?
or m103?s or m4 shermans?
-
as we all know, wen the game starts in the early scnarions for the germans IE 39, 40, they have no bombers, and yet , if i remember right, warsaw was bombed during the polish campaign, and so was brussels
and yet in both of those early scens, the germans have NO bombers
will this be remedied?
-
o ya, i forgot about the nile - my bad lol
ill have to look at the screenshots again
but i do believe that cherbourg should be a standatrd (in the game) port lol
im jus trying for some more hist accuracy lol
i mean retributar did say that we want both historical and abstraction
whiole it is true that a wargame cant really be made without at least sum abstraction, it is IMHO, that the dgeree of abstracion should be as small as possible to preserve mopre historical accuracy
1 of my favorite sayings for myself is this -
"i dont mean to be a pain in the a$$, i just AM"
lmao
-
i mean the ports and things like that
the nile, the somme
the port of cherbourg, le havre, dover, a port in iceland, crete, cyprus, sardinia, corsica, all their ports are msising lol
and bases and things
all that is missing
im not saying it should be a monument to micromanagement, im just saying a few things maybe could stand to be adeded to the game lol
-
exactly
i too wouldve focused on the 262s, favoring air supremacy
u can have the most powerful tanks u want, but without good air control and air cover, they might as well be scrap metal
and of course, without air supremacy, u can say GOODBYE to ur supply lines and communications and bridges, ammo dumps, and the like
which of course will cut ur supplies, and be instrumental in the collapse of ur frontlines
which will of course bring to to defeat
-
lol i dont mean the endings lol
i just mean the ports and bases and things like that
-
ahh i see
well then, shouldnt it be made to be as historical as possible?
within some kind of limit?
-
very true, ironically
cuz they were in the harbor, they were of course close to shore and rescue
if i were japan, i wouldnt have attacked pearl
all it did was awaken the sleeping giant and REALLY REALLY REALLY tick america off
which is not a wise thing to do wen ur fighting the most powerful country on the face of the earth....
-
just a question here if i may...
is SC2 historical, semi historical or?
im just wondering, as there is no sarcasm in how i say it
lol
-
true
but i jus think for historical accuracy that maybe the vcapital should b vichy
-
o,
as for greece lol
it gives u bomber bases against egypt, and it can give germany a mediteranean port, allowing uboat operations in the Med
as for the mountains in turkey/russia, it was a bit of a pain, but it was more than worth the effects it brought
i also made an amphibious klanding in trhe caucasus to help with the overland route of the turkey force
