I think Pulse and me didnt suspect that this td balance thread has such a fallout for this game. The reason why i nearly stopped playing td is this Mcv 4k lameness wich almost entirely prevents players from expanding and having a multible structurebuild wich is a important part of TD imo. That thre...

I voted no here but i think If aircraft would be buffed count my vote as a yes. But this is only another blank statement from a mainly RA playing guy :D IF you are aware that this isn't RA, on which basis do you vote here than ???

Helis dont need to be fixed any more they seem to work very well as you can see in this short debug testing replay http://www.gamereplays.org/openra/replays.php?game=92&show=details&id=315894 The problem of many helis surrounding 1 helipad exsist only if you got more helis than free helipads. But yo...

What i really miss from RA is to let your units march in formation. You could have selected a few units and pushed F and they holded Formation then. would be really usefull for madtanks for example. Make a cross push F and drive slowly to the enemys base, would be no problem to hit them all with you...

Re: Spy in RA

Hi all, Now it is known fact that a spy is an annoying unit, especially when coming in numbers like 7 to 10. Really? Seems like you are an unexperimenced player who just dont know how to recognize those. Those spys have a very small armor so this would affect very rarely. They are mostly killed wit...

Watching replays and stealing buildorders and tactics from the good players also helps much.

I give this a yes please! Bring Volkov back to openra with a buildlimit he will be not so much overpowered this time. Also i think a new Soviet faction should be added for him. If you just add him to the existing factions would power them too much. You have 3 allied and 3 Soviet then finally :D Also...

Do you mean the experimental "super tank"? Could that ever be controlled by the player in the game? I meant the tanks from the Monster tank madness mission, you can find it in mission chooser. It looks like a normal Mammoth i think maybe it should look a bit bigger then with longer barrels and so. ...

Volkov and Chitzkoi were never in Skirmish/MP in original games. They doesn't even have specific unit entry in rules.ini but modified GNRL and DOG. They'll of course will be in missions when then added. I would love to see them available in Skirmish/MP too (and in fact they was but it was before i ...

Map options: MCV Crate - when player has no MCV/Construction Yard, then any crate they find has a much higher chance (perhaps it was even 100%) of being an MCV We had this a few years ago but you can just always sell your conyard and get a bunch of infantry engie and 2000$ also base was sometimes n...

Blocking stuff with the small tanks. I know this has been largely dealt with by game changes. I have no problem with people trying early attacks. If they didn't happen there would be no balance between early game defence and building up economy etc. It's part of the soviet game to harass with grena...
