[QUOTE=darth-veger;39454046]Just a bad team then. A tank can't make the entire difference Secondly, on the General side you should know that if your team even had any tanks/planes available. I won a game or 2 when the enemy had planes and tanks and yet we won. [editline]3rd February 2013[/editline] Square only publishes it and isn't really known for forcing stuff to their games nor for making [I]all[/I] their games Pay 2 Win[/QUOTE] 1 tank? no, 3 tanks? yes

[QUOTE=JerryK;39455094]1 tank? no, 3 tanks? yes[/QUOTE] Blame the generals. I was in a situation where our shit was being pushed in by 3 Shermans. I was pretty much begging people to send us support in the Axis chat and woop! I saw one guy send in some units towards us from a nearby town. Got in game, a couple minutes later - 2 tank destroyers rolled up that completely wrecked the Shermans and pushed us all the way from our very first spawnkill point to winning the match. It's all about the generals. also yisss [img]http://i.imm.io/V0CS.jpeg[/img] [editline]3rd February 2013[/editline] well now this is an interesting meetup :v: [img]http://i.imm.io/V0Gm.jpeg[/img]

but the problem wasn't the general the axis team had tanks, but we had no drivers because no one had enough credits to unlock one the amount of grinding is just annoying and is of course, like any other f2p game, really long to try and get people to spend money instead

Oh I getchya. Well it's not that much of a grind, just what? At most 2 days worth of playing? Plus you sometimes get gold for completing missions so you can convert that as well. [editline]3rd February 2013[/editline] Anyone else have issues with the game taking ages to load? For some reason it randomly started to load for 5+ minutes instead of 10-15 seconds.

So what's the maximum amount of players & bots in a map for this game?

[QUOTE=smeismastger;39457922]So what's the maximum amount of players & bots in a map for this game?[/QUOTE] well, there's no bots, but 16x16

It'll never cease to amaze me that we don't get bazookas, yet the Germans shit Panzerfaust.

Would be nice if they upped it to something like 20x20 or even 32x32

[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;39458368]It'll never cease to amaze me that we don't get bazookas, yet the Germans shit Panzerfaust.[/QUOTE] Allies do get bazookas. Also I think I agree this game is pay 2 win, I spent 7 quid and got every weapon for the Germans aswell as a new crewman character and I still have a load left over so I can do the same for allies. I had an MG42 with mods within 1 day of the server restart, I doubt anyone has been able to buy one with pure credits yet

[QUOTE=darth-veger;39453975]Wish we could. But this game isn't that Pay 2 Win. I still remain at number 1-2 on some session in terms of points with my default weapon and my Mauser pistol.[/QUOTE] I love this game. seriously the Paying real money element is similar to World of tanks to a digree. all you do is pay real money for gold. in which you can go up the progress ladder quicker. or you can buy premium and enjoy 50% more credits, there are no OP weapons that can be bought with real money. nothing like that, which makes this the perfect F2P game imo (alongside WOT offcaurse)

This game is pretty big and quite some time went in the development, besides a lot of server power is needed to run this properly. I always think that the Free part of a F2P game is a 'demo' and that if you like it you can invest some money in it and play the real game. The game still needs skill to be played properly, someone with a SMG can run at me all he wants but if i see him earlier i can easily pull off a headshot and bring him down. Besides, i can pick up his gun and continue harvesting lives with that :v:

[QUOTE=Gareth;39459987]Yeah its good value for money but considering you can spend 7quid and save yourself 100 hours of grinding to get the same stuff it does kinda lean towards p2w[/QUOTE] I really only consider Pay2Win to being able to spend cash to get a distinct advantage (i.e. an m1 that actually does 15 or damage or something) in combat. To each his own I guess.

Dont know whether to buy the Recon or Machinegunner for my next purchase...

[QUOTE=cr2142;39460570]Dont know whether to buy the Recon or Machinegunner for my next purchase...[/QUOTE] I don't think Recon can get into matches without specific ATs. Also don't buy a machine gunner. Buy a machine gun for your starting infantry character, instead. It's cheaper that way. 95k for a MG42 instead of like 100k for buying a chracter (56k for the FIRST slot, much more if 2nd + 50k more for the character) [editline]3rd February 2013[/editline] plus if you bought a machine gunner instead of a machine gun, you'd be splitting your ranks between characters and losing the rank bonus on your infantryman

Well I have an extra slot for a new character. I dont want to bother buying Pilot since I know I will be shit at it.

Why do I always get the team full of fuck knuckles who are dumb, deaf, and blind, who literally walk RIGHT PAST THE ENEMY AS THEY'RE STARING AT THEM. When I first picked up the game, I had awesome teammates who actually cooperated and covered each other as they did the MAP OBJECTIVES. Now I'm always on the point, no idea what the fuck my teammates are doing besides staying at the previous point we captured, sniping from it. I could play better than these guys by slapping my flaccid dick against my keyboard and mouse, blindfolded, with both arms tied behind my back. Is anyone having troubles with absolutely retarded teammates?

Are these teammates on the Allies side perhaps? Me and Fussy were doing brilliant Metal Gear Solid things a couple of times. A foggy night setting, there's a corn field or whatever and both of us just prone sneaking in, there's explosions everywhere, Allies running right past up, we take a couple out, they start to hunt us but we become one with the environment. We felt like German Ninjas V:v:V [editline]3rd February 2013[/editline] Like this!

Just registered Axis or Allies?

Just had a great battle in the Tiger tank, Managed to destroy like 10 tanks and got a ton of lucky shots on jeeps and everything, recorded a video too Uploading it tonight

I still haven't figured out how to group up like a party or something. I just want to play with my friends.

Is this still in closed beta? I remember applying for it a few months ago and not hearing anything about it after that. I would of liked a beta key to try it but i didn't get one.

Prone is pretty shit in this. Hurr durr I can only look at a 25 degree angle in front of me and can't rotate.

It's kinda lame because aiming is impossible so it's only for things like the prone movement. [editline]4th February 2013[/editline] Man low sensitivity is a godsend. Found out I could lower it even more and right after I do it - bam three smooth headshots on three moving half-track gunners. I feel like I'm truly Legolas. [editline]4th February 2013[/editline] Made another account, I figured I'd go for faction loyalty so I have two :v: Add my Ally to the OP: _Amber

I rode a bicycle into battle against three Tiger I's. Ended up killing two of them with my Bazooka, and killed the operator of the third, and took it for a drive back to my base. Fuck you. His name is Chewy you German bastards.
