In the German one I got to the first line of defence then tanks fucked me up over the long empty fields, in the USA one I got 1 and a half done and was doing very well until my connection fucked up and I got kicked out for 'multiple connections from same IP' Was playing alone because as with MoW I've been screwed over by NAT.
There's no Infantry Only!?
[QUOTE=acds;25830145]"NO GOLIATH OR KICK TANKS ONLY" will be the new thing now.[/QUOTE] Are they adding goliath tanks to the assault squad expansion? Because i remember those goddamn crappy mini-tanks in COH.
the goliath is a german special unit
will you need the original men of war to play Assault Squad if not do you reccomend getting MoW now or waiting for Assault Squad?
no you will not need men of war in order to play assault squad and make up your own mind jesus fucking christ are you dyslexic read up on that shit on your own and stop shitting all over my thread
Just tried playing CoH. So yeah, 2 German soldiers with MP44s versus one sniper. I attack him, they run up to him and shoot, but his health doesn't even flinch. Then he runs away (magically disappearing at 3 metres distance, even though it was in plain view), I run after him, and again 2 soldiers standing at 20cm from a sniper shooting at him yet not killing him. Then he shoots two shots and kills both my soldiers. Then a light MG arrives and I counter it with a light armoured car (normal MG42 ontop, not 20mm). Turns out I couldn't do shit to it but evidently the light MG could take out an armoured car without to many problems. CTRL+ALT+Delete>Task Manager>Process>CoH.exe>End Process

Esepicially CoH, the whole fucking time I wish my tiger could actually kill that sherman in one shot 20m away.

With a good realism mod I'd say without a doubt that it was better than MoW. I'd make a new mod for it but then, the SCAR AI and the fact that Relic Online likes to fuck up with mods made me quit and move to MoW. Could spend literally hours in a Coop game online though, the AI I had set up was absolutely vicious, and having to protect and conserve your tanks meant that you had to EARN every inch of ground you gained because infantry would get cut to pieces at the slightest mistake. Made MoW look like kindergarten in comparison.

I'd completely prefer Men of War if it had skirmish games like CoH. ([I]With actual AI[/I])

Just came back from a light tank only match on tram depot. THE M19 IS EVEN MORE OF A KRAUTSHREDDER THEN EVER one burst = 20 dead men
no fucking shit [url=http://d.imagehost.org/view/0571/MOWAS-01][img]http://d.imagehost.org/0571/MOWAS-01.png[/img][/url]
There's no button for setting things like AT guns down anymore? :frog:
[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;25836681]There's no button for setting things like AT guns down anymore? :frog:[/QUOTE] It used to be space as the default key, atleast for Direct Control.
Yes. Used to. Space changes shells now and I can't find a button in the controls for it.
Um, so, I need a bit of help... [img]http://filesmelt.com/dl/asasdasdasd.jpg[/img]
[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;25837168]Yes. Used to. Space changes shells now and I can't find a button in the controls for it.[/QUOTE] it's the prone/stand key
US still suck compared to the Germans. And things get spotted way too easily. You can have a stug in a bush and some guy halfway across the map will spot it. Probably because they keep wiggling their cannons trying to shoot things through walls.

I had a nashorn's shell hit a pershing in the side and detrack it, but otherwise go through and not harm it. How does this work.
:saddowns: The beta always freezes for me at around 15 minutes into any game. I really like the 'skirmish' mode though.

Wait fuck the MoW:AS Beta came out?! Link please? [editline]3rd November 2010[/editline] Nevermind.
Just had an awesome game just now. Combat 4 vs 4, on the uh map with the village in the center and fields and forests around it. So anyways, me and this other dude did practically all the killing while everyone else died. At the end point of the match, I had 240 points, and my teammate had 90ish. The entire time, I'd been conserving my troops and stuff and only using small units. Anyways, at the end, my teammate sorta rushed a Pershing, and 2 M4A3E8s, and pretty much single handedly caught 3 Panthers in the ass, and won us the game.
I miss the Brits from the closed beta, the grenade launcher that the squadleader of the assault squads got was awesome. I think it could even take out light vehicles. Well, it could in real life atleast.
