Why would be good to give hind back to the soviets? lmao, cause it's a soviet helicopter. it's where it originally was in the original game and where it belongs. And for all the talk of it "breaking" gameplay, maybe it would actually enhance the game by making games more dynamic/interesting with so...

Just adding another random thought too.. instead of assuming the Hind would get unlocked at tier 2 with a radar dome for Soviets as it currently is for Allies, for balancing would it help at all to push it back to tier 3 and require a tech center? Out of curiosity is that how it was in the original ...

The fact that people here think that Hinds and Yaks fill similar roles is all the proof you need that this discussion is nonsensical. instead of making a snarky comment why don't you illustrate your point? I understand that as Happy said, the Hind is better at "crowd control" and a yak is better at...

For what was quoted from Smitty: (A) I don't think it will make too much of a difference to balance, assuming you give a replacement to Allies Here's an example how the hinds army deleting power. https://clips.twitch.tv/TastyTangentialPeppermintOSfrog Here is an example of a game being won due to h...

For what was quoted from Smitty: (A) I don't think it will make too much of a difference to balance, assuming you give a replacement to Allies (B) So you could change it visually also to match the name change (C) You will not remove the Hind from the game, if it is being switched over to Soviets. W...

this looks dopee.. if anything I really wouldnt mind this option.. simple and effective.

For the "two different Longbows" idea... As I understand it, the Longbow was an upgraded type of Apache. So standard Apache at tier 2 and Longbow at tier 3? Hmm.. Nod did have an "Apache" in TD... and it did shoot a chaingun.. What if the Allies get to build Nod's "Apache" from TD at tier 2 and the...

Any ideas for how the game could be balanced if hinds were returned to Soviet? (A particular soviet faction?) It's been suggested previously that the hind be replaced for allies with a slightly different design/name. That would be the least intrusive way (to gameplay how it is) to give hinds back t...

Adding the sea scorpion may be the logical conclusion after we've tried everything else. I doubt pchote would be against that. After all the flak truck was added for the same reason. Changes like the flak truck, multi-use engineers, bounties, allied hinds were mostly done 5+ years ago, when the gam...

Nuke trucks in transports This is actually so good. Especially with iron curtain, like you mentioned. It effectively iron curtains the nuke truck on certain naval maps lmao u can do this with a demo truck? and when the transport blows up the nuke goes off? Can you iron curtain a demo truck outside ...

When I've watched good players use naval (and not random tom and jokinha fighting on isles of war or whatever its called at 7 apm) That's a hilarious shout out to everyone's favorite temperamental, team killing, isle of man loving dirt dawg. Allied tier 3 needs to see more use, especially faction s...

I expect that 2018 will be a low point for OpenRA; the main point on my wishlist is that it survives as an active project to 2019. The dev team gained some welcome fresh blood in 2017, but at the same time most of the core team have significantly cut their involvement for various reasons. This has ...

I was wondering what improvements to OpenRA you are hoping to see this year? I will start off with my own personal short list: Tiberian SUN!! Fixing the glitchy dog behavior Fixing the weird music bug that randomly stops songs (Not 100% sure if this still exists in the latest release) Login Accounts...

Submarine > Destroyer in 1v1 combat but Destroyer deletes air so yeah. I mean, with some good micro, a destroyer can outmaneuver a sub in 1 v 1, but anything more, especially large groups, Subs OWN destroyers. Of course having some air on hand will help, but it's not that easy to play whack a mole ...

Exactly, you can power down the defensive one so why not the mobile. I had the perfect parabomb once vs barf just because he gathered one army around his mobile mgg, just a big black target for my badgers. yea.. the mgg almost seems to be more of a liability the more I read into the scenarios you g...
