Percopius Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 I was reading how hard and unbalanced the missions are, and thought I would try the Polish campaign. As I was preparing to play the first mission, I noticed a feature I don't think you are all aware of. Apparently, there is an adjustment called the 'difficulty level'. There are three, Hard, Normal, and Easy. So I tried the campaigns first mission on 'hard'. You know what, it's really hard to win! Well, I thought to myself, maybe I'll try the setting called 'Easy'. You know what, it was easy to win! So, easy, I won the first time! Wow, I thought, thats neat. I can adjust the difficulty level as I learn the game. I could replay a mission I won on easy, and play it again, get this, on a differnt difficulty level! Wow! That's great! That means I can play the missions more than once without getting bored. This is a great feature and more games should have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pak40 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Or you could leave it on hard and win the first mission on the second try. That's what I did. Try different strategies and different setups. Don't buy into the default setup that they give you. For example, the first mission of the Polish Campaign has all your troops and two of your guns in the forward trenches. This is a horrible choice because it leaves your AT guns vulerable at long range. The gunners are so bad they can't hit the tanks well at long range. Try moving everyone back behind the hill and into the town and see what happens. The German tanks can't engage until they crest the hill, less than 100m from your positions. AT guns will be deadly at that range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OES95 Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 LoL some of us still do need the levels anyway lol I still stink at easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardRock Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 Problem with the difficulty levels is the hard is the only one with ballistics and realism which is why people bought the game. So the easy is arcade. The enemy having less units might have made a better easier level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeLaVega Posted April 24, 2007 Share Posted April 24, 2007 And if you directly start on the hard level you know each position of every AT Gun whenever you play the game again. And the reinforcements always enter the map at the same point. So, now suprise there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
