There are three problems that need to be fixed with paratroopers. Parachute planes are too short in the air and it does not give you time to react or, as it was in the case of this unit, an emergency landing at the time of damage to the aeroplane. An engineer in a parachute team is a great problem and a moment of issue. And my idea to nerf them is this:
The ability to deploy paratroopers, similarly to planes, after a certain time from the start of the game.
Completely removing the engineer class from the formation or removing the ability to build a rallypoint.
Airborne aircraft should fly exactly as long as bombers. When shot down and crashed, paratroopers respawn at the standard spawn point without a cache.
These are fair points that I mostly agree with, although I do have a few comments.
I don’t think this is necessary if you increase the aircraft’s flight time, but I also wouldn’t really care if that was added. Maybe an extended flight time for the beginning of the battle would work too.
Why though? That doesn’t make much sense unless we’re talking about the removal of rally points entirely.
Not that long, but they definitely need to fly significantly longer than they do now, to give the opposing team an opportunity to shoot them down. That said, I would still be indifferent if they did increase the time to equal that of bombers.
Increased flight time is probably the most important and necessary change in my mind. It would also make it more cinematic as well.
Even the over powered p2w premiums in Normandy are manageable…
Engineer kit is already restricted to a single one only with mortars. Most prefer to use lmg assault guys… So it’s in a sense already restricted.
Nah the mistake devs made, is again attributed to their boundless greed: new mechanic is only available behind a ridiculously pricy pay wall (or event ones) in only 2 campaigns… those should have been part of the regular tech tree.
Paratrooper are fine they way they are. Adapt , improvise , overcome. If a single class ruins the way you play then i dont know what to tell you.
Hope DF doesnt listen to these baseless complaints since there are more urgent matters.
Agreed, it was a very strange choice to lock the main focus of an update behind a paywall, and I’m surprised that didn’t get more of a general negative reaction.
Price points are just really off in this game. Why is the Pacific pack, with 4 premiums (two that kinda have special mechanics) only $30, but these are $60?
Well yes, they’re not perfect and definitely need some changes but they’re far from gamebreaking. Attacker planes are still far worse because they can clear a point in a matter of seconds.
Afterall, it was used. I’ve got historical footage here of Italian soldiers using it, during the allies invasion of Italy. @gastanofrizzi can confirm:
You sound emotional when you write comments “liar” plus you even have the time to do videos that dont mean anything. You have a lot of free time on your hands you should find another hobby to calm down. You have been on a rampage of complaints of nonsense. You chose not to spend money on the squad its on you. And to tell you it doesn’t add much advantage to use them. They are fun and its just a different mechanic.if you didn’t find a way to counter its on you. You cant come here insulting others because they are against you and for lack of better words i would say your atitude is petty.
now more than ever i will fight tooth and nail to discredit you.
I have a solution for you, play more enlisted that seems like a skill issue and lack of vision.
