Fat Samurai posted:- What the hell is a deploying queue and why do I have to wait again after waiting for the battle to start? The deploying queue was added to even out completely unfair fights where one side has more than two players over the other side, resulting in some very one-sided and unfun fights. Fat Samurai posted:- Is there anything shared between soldiers? I have a feeling that leveling up a German scout won't help when playing a USA tank driver, for example. Nope. Fat Samurai posted:- Are machineguns more useful than semi-auto and bolt action rifles in general? When shooting people from far away they usually take three or four shots unless I get lucky and score a headshot, which is enough for them to run away. In close fights, however, a rifle shot isn't enough to one-shot anything, and the delay in shooting is usually fatal.* Machineguns are way better than semi-autos at everything, bolt-actions only lose if they haven't been modded into OHK railguns and even then, MGs are way more versatile.

Artless Meat posted:The best is when you have a squad of Heavy or Medium tanks, but no one in the game is qualified to use them, so they just sit there taking up a useful spot instead. This is only a major problem on the US side, since nobody's gonna put down real money on a Sherman or a Pershing.

L-Boned posted:Is the Kar98k significantly better than the Gewehr 43? Also, is there a way to make crouch a toggle command so I don't have to hold it down? Thanks. Bolt-actions are way better than semi-autos after you mod them to become OHK railguns.

L-Boned posted:Do they ever run specials on gold? I don't really want to "skip" ahead by buying the DLC packs. However, progression is pretty grinding. Even with good scores, raising credits is slow. Is a membership worthwhile? If you play every day, then yes premium is worth it. Only pack worth buying in steam store would be the Tanker packs.

Nitrox posted:Feel really burned out from this game. Any idea as to why allies are constantly winning after the patch? Germany usually has a strong initial offensive, but then slowly lose ground and eventually the war... Limited resources, so AT spam is no longer viable. Germany still can win but it requires them to be smart about how they use their forces now. Before that, Germany almost always won every single war because loads of wehraboos spamming ATs everywhere.

Gerbil_Pen posted:What took them so long? Honestly, I think Reto expected the russian players to throw loads of money at the Russian side and they didn't expect them to come short in the AT department. This sale is more or less them trying to both compensate this shortcoming and get some more funding.

Freudian slippers posted:Right, so my Messerschmidt can now carry two types of ammo for my cannon. At least I think so, seeing as I can equip tow different types and two different types show up in the bottom right of the screen. Been waiting for this for quite some time. But how on earth am I supposed to change between them? Pressing 1/2 does not do anything. This is really frustrating, help me goons! Go send a bug report about that to Reto.

Now watch as the Sturmgewehr makes mad money for them and they can finally afford to get more people.

EvilHobo posted:That is something that I think is actually okay (even though the prices are very high for things like Oak camo) They should add some form of a skill mechanism to make the grind easier if you play consistently well in war battles. It would keep veterans invested and give good players an avenue to make the grind faster.

Nitrox posted:I think that war battle ribbon should give you access to some sort of cash or exp multiplier badge. This will keep good players from having other badges slotted and helping you bypass that tedious exp grind between levels 10-15 . I was thinking more introducing a system where doing thing X or completing ribbon Y gets you a Medal. Medals of course would give you a big lump-sum of experience with some currencies depending on what you did for the medal.

Nitrox posted:Oh yes, a thousand times yes. RO players are sharp as poo poo, and you'll never get away with things like running in the open... in a straight line. H&G infantry seem to act like a pack of newborn kittens sometimes. Use your superior mouse clicking skills to mow down hordes of them with your basic weaponry. Also, join mumble. The German faction has the worst teamchat, no question. Always whining about Reto not adding Überpanzer 12 that only saw service in may of '44 in some SS regiment in garrison duty while whining about the PPSh/modded Thompson being able to beat the MG42 and the STG in CQC every once in a while.

DreamShipWrecked posted:What do you mean by swapping soldiers? I am still too low to specialize, you mean later when I am able to I should go back and make new ones for other trees? You should have several soldiers for both extra income and being able to have a tool for every job you might encounter. Have at least 3 regular soldiers filling different roles of infantry, then start grinding/buying specialists.

Great Beer posted:They should lump Russia and america together vs germany. Solves the Russians lack of population/tanks at least. Not sure why they thought introducing another faction was a good idea. I think an economic incentive would work better to make underdog factions more viable. Something like +50 percent income on everything if you play with a faction that has the longest losing streak? And H3s demand you go right next to the tank and they would not be worth using if that wasn't a thing. They should make tanking cheaper though.

Nitrox posted:That is the exact reason it's implemented, because people like you are the most numerous. You and people like you are breaking the game by stacking one side in the way than no other faction can match. I don't know why it's mostly prevalent to Germany, but I don't care. Don't loving deploy, problem solved. Or deploy and eat the loses. The whales can be appeased by fancy hats and whichever late-war SS camo they use for their underwear. They will stay because they have invested so much time and money anyways.
