Re: Mechanics, engineers and scrapping and restoring husks

As we got kinda off topic, i'd like to wishlist something that will never happen. A checkbox for "experimental/fun units".Where we would have tested and reasonably balanced extra units in fairly large numbers, like 3 extra per faction. We've seen many players bring cool units into mod maps, and Sir...

I don't get the whole staying true to the original argument, we have: unit veterancy pillbox veterancy spies that infiltrate buildings to gain unit veterancy (rather than just revealing what's currently being produced) fog of war husks mechanics hijackers flak trucks demo trucks artillery with 12 ce...

They already have 95% evasion chance. That won't make the hiacker any better.
The discussion was around giving them standard stealth and a 100% chance of crush evasion, to counter the "invisible refblock issue" which is currently present with the phase transport.

Re: Mechanics, engineers and scrapping and restoring husks

The hijacker is basically a troll unit, it's a complete roll of the dice and I've never seen it used in competitive play, even if it were fixed, it's a lot less likely to be pulled off successfully than a husk capture, it's just the nature of moving targets that can be microed and are likely to be s...

Commandos in Tiberium Dawn need to not prevent you from ordering the rest of your selected unit to attack something. Please fix this.
This also happens in RA with unarmed civilians or medics in a group, attack orders turn into move orders.

Re: Using of software programmable macros in competitive games

That would be really good and reduce the 3rd party macro advantage somewhat. As i've not posted in this thread yet, i'm of the stance if it's not in the game then it's not really fair. If some players think that they are at a significant disadvantage not using macros, then that's enough reason to b...

Re: Send me your replays and I'll cast them!

It’s not that I myself had not been criticised for doing nice an free things in my spare time before. And I wasn’t really harsh, was I? I didn’t know 5A is this short on time, my apologies... I will work around that just fine ;) Perhaps intended context got lost in thought-to-text translation, but ...

Re: Using of software programmable macros in competitive games

You're using software external to the standard client to glean advantage... What's the difference? If I were to code it, I'd look for a repeated sequence of multiple inputs within a small period of time, so mashing one key wouldn't do it, it'd have to be a combination of inputs happening in a time-f...

Re: Using of software programmable macros in competitive games

This may be slightly off topic but related to queing..... I really think there should be a "un-que all in tab" button for when you need to quickly change your build. Honestly macros don't bother me. It's like using a speed loader in a shotgun competition. As long as everyone can use it it's fair. I...
