Jesus.
My old tactic of "When japs, spam the ha-go like a motherfucker" is STILL nothing to scoff at.
I mean they are so small, I place them behind or inside buildings, APCR loaded and then leave them there. Big expensive tank comes by, one shot to the engine, killed by the cheapest tank in the game.
And if infantry comes to get it the ha-go with it's retarded MG guns on odd angles just seems to eat them up before they can do anything.
It's like a zergling that can kill big units in one shot if used properly. I made a russian rage his balls of because he lost 3 T-34's and a T-34-85 to those things, and lost count of how many infantry it mowed down.
Ha-Go spam 4lyfe

Map size.

Yes but most of the maps are rarely mroe than 300-400 meters across, if even that.
I agree MoWAS has problems, a lot of them coming from the size of the dev team (something like 4 people), but the US aren't really that bad. I win most of my games as US when playing vs Germany or Russia, just gotta keep pushing really.
You can get this game for free right?

I would love to know if you actually can, it seems fun but jesus fuck it can't be even considered a game. More like a patch.
You can get Men of War for free, not Assault Squad.

It was a free deal from a code to play the game on greenmangaming, I tried it today and it says expired.
You won't miss out imo anyways...
Checked the polish site doesn't have the code too.

I was actually making a MoW:AS version when I was playing the AS beta, but then I got bored of it and my attention span grants me a maximum of 25 minutes of photoshopping at best most of the time.

Well, puma's are fucking terribad now, so that bit doesnt really apply any more...
Great to see that the thread has been active lately fueled by rage
holy shit what is it with the AI and AT guns.
seriously US versus germans your at guns can barely take the helmet off a fucking panzergrenadier but their AT guns will kill you, your family, and your family's prize tank from 50 million miles away.
[QUOTE=LordLoss;31133573]Well, puma's are fucking terribad now, so that bit doesnt really apply any more...[/QUOTE]
Did they nerf their speed and gun a lot? I recall it being able to be taken out by .50 Cal to the side even back when I was playing.
I always used puma to quickly flank shermans, IS3's and whatnot and put a 50mm round to the side from almost point-blank or 20 meters away anyway. Just to be sure
I think there are a lot of changes that effected it, but just in general its a lot harder to get small vehicles around the back/side of a big enemy tank to take it out.

Which makes the game fucking boring because now the only really viable tactic to enemy tank spam is counterspam, if that doesn't work you're pretty much fucked.
They really messed it up.
Making a mod changing the speed values of vehicles to their proper ones.The only problem im having is the wikipedia page for some vehicles dont list their offroad value.
oh god the hellcat wat

I definitely noticed this, but I could never quite put my finger on as to WHY it was so hard. A strong line of infantry to spot, machineguns here and there to deal the real damage to enemy infantry approaching, some field guns here and there as a base defense, and 3-4 greyhounds doesn't work anymore. I distinctly remember sending greyhounds all the way around the map and penning the side of even the biggest tanks, now it not only bounces randomly on the sides of things but the greyhounds never make it close enough.

Well, there's this Cold War game coming out sometime in November with an open beta starting in September. The designers say it's a tribute to "old wargames we used to play around 10 years ago"...

imagine men of war
NOW IMAGINE IT WITHOUT RIDICULOUS IMBALANCES, RUSSIANS, TANK SPAMMERS, RUSSIAN TANK SPAMMERS, AND FAGGOTS WITH THE NAME TRANNYSURPRISING!
a game worth 35 dollars, hell, 50 dollars
if not even 60!!!
seriously literally every way to win mow is by spamming tanks
any form of a vehicle when spammed in mow = victory
atr spam can not stop it
other tanks can not stop it
at guns can not stop it
artillery guns can not stop it
nothing can stop tank spam[/QUOTE]
Three infantrymen in a bush with AT grenades? No more tanks.

That's seriously all you have to do.
I remember a long time ago in this very thread I complained about Assault Squad not being any new content and how DMS/Best Way have rehashed the same game for the past 7 years. Soldiers: Heroes of WWII is the same thing as Faces of War which is the same thing as Men of War which is the same thing as Assault Squad. Each new iteration costs the same as the previous game, but changes one or two small things. It's been 7 years and we've had literally nothing new.
Last time I argued this people defended DMS by saying it's a small team with limited resources. That's respectable. I respect DMS for the absolute brilliance of the series, but it's been 7 years. This game worked 7 years ago, but not today. The AI is so horribly broken infantry are essentially useless. Nothing, and I mean nothing, has bothered me more in this series than the broken infantry. Let's throw a grenade. The soldier has to run out of cover towards the tank, pull out the grenade, take a throw, and then stand there uselessly (even with move at will enabled). It's not the guy can even survive long enough to get back into cover. Everything else is terrible too. The AI has to stop moving to change orders. They move in one direction, stop, rotate a few degrees, and proceed to run towards their new destination.
So many balancing issues as well. Many have been fixed, but it's been 7 years thank god they did something.
Look, I love this game (Assault Squad). I love the series. It's got a certain charm to it, especially because of the engine. The problem is they've done nothing to change and advance themselves. We're still stuck with the same problems we've always had. I want a new engine, new content. I especially want a new engine. I don't want to have to keep paying $40 for essentially a new shader and 10 new units. They've got another expansion coming out and Vietnam. Vietnam is the first time I've been excited for a Men of War release. It's the first time we've had a major content addition, but then they announce there won't be any multiplayer. WHY? All they've literally done is add more content and do some scripting to allow certain units and events. Why on earth don't they allow us to play competitively with other people? It surely can't be an engine limitation right, and if it is why can't they fix it? It's unacceptable.
Seriously, I'm retarded, and I'll keep buying every game in the series. I have a love/hate relationship with this game. I love playing it, but every time I can't help but get frustrated with the same problems over and over again. Then they announce new content and I get as giddy as a child in a candy store. I just can't help myself from buying their games.
It's time they changed engines. It's time they added more content. Building an engine in-house is difficult, but there are plenty of perfect engines out there to be licensed. Yeah it's expensive and time consuming especially for a smaller dev team, but that's a lame excuse. There are teams of two or three people making incredibly games. Hell, just look at the Overgrowth or Natural Selection teams. They've got ridiculously limited funds and team size but they are making their own games and engines from scratch. Now tell me an experienced dev team with the funds from the sales of multiple games can't do the same.
I hope to god they decide to change something major after their next expansion and Vietnam.
