I can’t be the only one that thinks a lot of the defense points for the Germans are suicidal to actually defend. There are a lot a defense zones that are in the middle of a street with almost no cover so all it takes is one explosive to kill every defender. Most of my invasion matches the soviets cap the first point in less than 2 minutes because anyone that actually reaches the point dies almost instantly to explosives or a swarm of soviet soldiers. It isn’t just defense points like this though, there are others that are in the middle of open fields which is fine at first, until a single bomber destroyers all the cover there and then it becomes a slaughterhouse for the defenders because the soviets can see you no matter where you are on the point The most frustrating part about this is that there is usually a building or a trench less than 30 meters from the point that would be 10x more practical to defend but instead, you have to sit in an open field prone because all your cover is gone. Maybe it’s just me but I don’t understand the strategic importance of defending an open field or a couple gas storage tanks when there is usually a building or a trench next to it.
I m yet to see the reason why I m defending such objectives… But then, I remember the real battle strategies that took place on exacly the same city layout this game mimics and I find all the reasons why we are defending such points.
They did actually happen in real life.
See the follow as an example. Can you notice where current points are in that map?
The Germans really didn’t have a lot of strategic things left so they just defended what ever they could.
War was lost long ago at that point in time.
Just played my first soviet game and it was conquest and we literally pushed the Germans back to their spawn. Yeah I’m just not gonna play as the Germans lol.
I seriously recommend you do not play germans unless you want to be constantly frustrated.
or if you are sadistic
I think you mean masochistic
PS: on another 9+ game winning streak with the soviets lmao. I’m barely even paying attention.
nah since masochistic is sexual but yeah i did use the wrong term there since CAS players are sadistic
You’re underestimating me.
Masochism = pleasure from experiencing pain
Sadism= pleasure from delivering pain.
and next we will talk about the pleasures of closed beta testing
fair
unless you have three other players working together in a squad with you or you just don’t care about winning or losing, do not touch Axis
C&B torture. I signed me the fk up
I think you’re taking those lines too literally.
With context, it’s pretty safe to say some points of Soviet advance weren’t because they pushed out into the open, but because the Germans were no longer out in the open at those places.
Like that open area in front of the opera house. I guarantee both sides were holed up on the opposite ends of the street and not fighting over the middle of it like the line shows and like where there are objectives in game.
