They are right to nerfed the Arty. Reducing my PTSD already
Yes the arty nerf was needed and good god, the game has improved a lot now.
However I would say the arty squad itself is rather pointless now, so I had an idea.
What if the radio squad gets a special ability? Marking stuff on the Map, without pressing Q!
So to speak that the radio squad can open die Map directly and function as a Recon unit for the Team!
And all that while the Radio Operators on your other Infantry squads still get the option
to call in “STILL VERY POWERFUL AND ARTY STRIKES” to keep enemies from capturing, or to blast Spawnpoints away with just one “klick”.
So yea, dont even dare to say Arty is useless now! It can still change the outcome of the game, but a small buff to the Radio squad itself would be nice.
Don’t use “historicity” as an excuse for your favorite carebear gameplay style. Historically, each battle was different, and at the small scale of this game, engagements did not necessarily reflect overall war statistics. Some soldiers got bombed, and some soldiers did not. There is no historical argument as to why this game has to be about the ones who did.
Try capping a point someday.
I think this is a good idea - Another option I like, is to increase the area/number of shells for artillery squad strikes. Something like that. Arty seems fine now, but radio squad is meh.
So let’s get rid of dedidacted radio operators squad. Already you can put one radiooperator in few squads.
Yet another rant…
uuh uhh uhh… most cssualties was made by artillery. Uuuhh…
Yeah sure… definetly by artillery that was fired while own troops was assaulting and not those hour long preparation barrages that happened before own troops even moved from shelter.
But actually thats really easy to fix. Just add pop up to match start that says something like ’ there was week long artillery barrage, million enemies died, have a good fight’… tadaaa problem solved. 99,9% of enemy casualties inflicted by artillery
Agree, because definitely a bad player couldnt just sit on greyzone and spam artillery. NO, it always required dedication & skill to use artillery.
what my eyes see.
the only thing atrocious here is your post, in the real world logic to carry out an artillery barrage on a vast area to weaken the enemy is correct, but this is a game, and being a partially realistic game it needs rules to guarantee fair Play, the artillery so far did not have sufficient rules to guarantee fair Play for both teams what happened was that after the spawn the map was filled with red circles and descended from the sky Michael bay for 30 seconds, in short, it was not understood a fuck with all those explosions, now it’s better there is no more abuse of artillery and players instead of pressing 7 to win they really have to play if they want to win
PS
you can also use the artillery to slow down the enemy not alone to kill, learn to play
honestly watching all these artillery mains crying because they cant farm kills from their spawn is great, now they just need to nerf aircraft bombs and then the game will be more enjoyable
This is not COD.
They must improve the AA and the fighters, and of course, use them to destroy enemy bombers.
If not, they will only get nobody to use airplanes and the game will be infantry vs infantry.
Why people who whines on arty don’t play arty? You know why? Because when they try they realize that arty is not op, they get 0 kills and later feel outrageous that someone slaughtered them with mechanic that they suck at. Nerf was dictated by people who don’t or don’t want to understand that it takes time to be good radio operator and get many kills. If radio operator was op they would play as radio operator
BTW For someone who claims that everyone is in rage you seems to be the very angry XD
Radio squad, mortar squad, and aircraft/bomber players whine a lot when their teammates do not give marker. It is good they are nerfed so they can learn how to shoot with gun once in a while. Radio and Mortar has been nerfed now, aircraft/bomber should be next.
Will BP tasks about arty kills be revised taking into account that now it is harder to score kills with arty?
This. After they nerf airplane nuke spam its time to buy 1 year membership
Just like with premium squads. It is great to have them finaly nerfed, but some aspects are just unnecessary overkill. At very least limit of 1 artillery should be replaced by limit of 2-3.
Radiomen squad now lost any sense or attractiveness and is just an obstacle to grind through and abandon for good. (1 minute cooldown is cool and all, hovewer, you are likely to wait even longer due to the limit so it is more convenient to use other squads and drop artillery with those if it happens to be available by any chance)
Great change. The devs can always increase values to make it better than it is after the nerf. It was crazy stupid before… there were constantly 2-5 red circles on the map at a time… then add the tactical nukes from the bombers.
By the way, people realize that nerfing artillery has nothing to do with changes to bombing. They can change it too. Those are two separate parts of the game…
If it actually took even a second from you to “learn” use effectively arty, I can already tell FPS games perhaps aint best suited for you.
Planes are considered OP too but you dont see sky full of planes, why ? Because they are limited as they should and thats exactly what happened to arty.
I’d buy a year of premium too
“Why people who whines on arty don’t play arty? You know why? Because when they try they realize that arty is not op, they get 0 kills and later feel outrageous that someone slaughtered them with mechanic that they suck at”
Lol. just no.
it requires no real skill to use, and ppl dont use it because its bloody boring mate.
A single arty strike is still extremely useful!
someone build a respawn point out in the open? You can guess where it is? one klick on the map and this alone could change the outcome of the match.
the areal denial effect on objective is still effective, however now you cant just have it bombed NONSTOP for the entire match.
