When you’ve detuned a weapon to the point that I can run literally through “THREE” of them and not die, it’s a complete joke and a waste of time to have these in the game. If they are no longer viable weapons, GET RID OF THEM, and it’s an absolute insult that DF still charges 800 silver for a pin prick weapon .
Why is it that some people complained about AP mines, so DF made them completely worthless, yet people have been complaining about other things for a couple years now and DF does nothing? I still can’t put a bomb through any kind of roof in this game, while being about to launch a tank round all the way through a church killing everyone inside and behind the building. You know, I shot a dude point blank with a shot gun while he struck me with his knife, and guess who won? I know it’s a video game, but some things are just so ridiculas.
While your at it DF, make the melee kills a little more realistic, they shouldn’t be powerful enough to kill Godzilla with one strike for Pete sake.
What is sad but amusing is that I had a squad of NINE, dropped all NINE AP mines in one room, then tried to shoot the guys before they could get to the mines, and the mines would have been backup. I lost all NINE squad members to a six man squad that ran right through the mines, me dying from the first enemy that stepped on my AP mine, then they killed my worthless bots with an explosion pack. I got ZERO kills from those NINE AP mines, and I instead of the enemy dying, I died from my own AP mine. I’m sure I got some assists, but to drop NINE and KILL ZERO is a joke.
My Filipina girlfriend is always asking why I am cussing, and because I tell her this game is so unrealistic its stupid. Then she asks why I play then and I tell her I love the game. In reality, I do love the game, just hate all the unrealistic arcade stupid shit.
It’s not just the AP mines that irritate me. The Melee kill is to powerful. You can’t drop a bomb through any type of roof in the game, but can blast a tank round all the way through a brick building. Artillery on some maps never stops, and sometimes is so bad the game is almost unplayable because your constantly losing one squad after another without having a chance to go anywhere. On the reverse side of that, since so many people are calling in artillery sometimes you have to wait several minutes just to get yours acknowledged, that is if your radioman lives that long, which in my case, DOESN"T. Spawn points suddenly freeze up or get moved back just as the enemy is starting to take the cap point so you have no way to get there if you spawn at all. I could on and on, but DF doesn’t listen to me anyway. They take my money, but they don’t listen to me.
When someone is running towards me, my instinct is NOT to try and kill him with my knife, bayonet or the butt of my gun, my instinct is a real life instinct that says if I have a gun in my hand, my best chance of survival is to shoot the SOB.
There is a reason “Don’t take a knife to a gunfight” is a quote. Only in unrealistic Arcade games does a knife carry more power then a gun.
Of course, what do I expect, only in an unrealistic arcade game can I drop bombs from a plane on a grass roofed hut and kill no one, but can launch a tank round from my protected grey zone safe space killing an entire squad inside a brick building, and killing a squad standing behind the brick building. Yes sir, that is realism right there boys and girls.
