>>126516890
how many VPs did you get
>>126517057
lol I only captured one, but I was very close to capturing two others if one of my tank platoons had made it to a bridge and blown it in time,
mostly I had PTSD from getting B T F O as soon as the game opened in the British RHINO scenario a few times. So I moved pretty slow and undecisively. The game still gave me 57% rating from killing stuff though.
>>126517174
well, such is the balance of the conflict
as NATO, you need to kill as many commies as you can and cut precious losses
as commies, you just need to secure road net while destroying or disabling any capitalist swine you encounter
Should I purchase a MiG-21 and play with that until the Mirage stops being a buggy mess? I've always been wary of it because it has no direct competitor in multiplayer, so it'd become either getting slapped by FC3 fighters or manhandling sabres and mig-15s...

F-5E in a few months most likely so it'll have a rival eventually.
lost an entire infantry battalion when they surprised me coming down that road, but I getting a nice killing field set up
advancing east with most of another panzer battalion
and they just gave me a whole another panzer and grenadier battalions which makes me think this is getting suspiciously easy

A small squad of MiG-21s can hit-and-run rape an F-15. A single MiG-21 can also do it if he's clever and the F-15 is extra dumb.

it's an alpha, half the shit doesn't work
Liking the new UI. Pretty slick and to the point. You have to do a lot less clicking to get to where you want to now. Easier to round up people for a pickup match too. I like the addition of a party system being in the works. Between that and the fortify command in the works, I'm pretty hype. They need to release patch notes already, though.
>That poor fuck in Australia
>>126521729
Locked behind a xp wall I am sure. Great game, but the unlocks are lame.
>>126522049
Yup. level 16 and 20. It's pretty fucking ridiculous, but people have been pretty vocal about it. Worst case scenario, it'll be like AS2 where you can just toggle it off, but having it mandatory for ranked kills matchmaking and forces everyone into only playing lobbies. Best case scenario, they hop off the bandwagon for this stupid as fuck fad that's invaded every multiplayer game in the industry since 2007.
Also, the tanks are 1300 MP for an M1A2 and 1600MP for a TUSK. 1100MP for T-80BV, 1300MP for T-80U; Same level requirements.
Alsol, I noticed guided missiles can be, go figure, guided now.
>>126522341
I am gonna play in an hour. I can add you if you want, and we can grind some levels.
>>126522775
I'm probably gonna hit the hay in a bit, but feel free to add me anyway so we can play later. As for now, I decided to play around with bots and record some video showing off direct control with vehicles, including the M1A2.
On a side note, if you want to level fast, set up a last man standing bot match in 4v4, close all the slots on your team except for yours and fill the enemy team with heroic bots. When ya start the match, start with a stryker or BTR. You can just mow folks down and farm a shitload of XP in the process. You can usually gain a level once a match if you're still low, and with 2-3 once you're higher.
>Get in first tank battle.
>T-80(Can't tell if BV or U because I forgot to check in game results) literally jack-in-the-box's
I got a good chuckle. Some of these clips are gonna be fun. Wish they weren't so insanely expensive, though. I haven't gotten to test their resilience to RPG-7's and AT-4's, but it better be pretty good for their price points, especially since there are heavy-AT options in the game.

>"mods don't work yet because we updated our main menu UI, and this disables all mods no matter how little they change"
Instinct what.
>>126528706
They didn't 'break' mods. People have to update their mods to the current version. You can literally fix it in 30 seconds with a text editor. This happens every patch in Men of War, and people always make the same complaints until mod makers update their shit. You'd think after a few years people would get it through their head.

Literally more appropriate to post your clickshitfest games in the starcraft general than here. While you are there you can mock them for SC2 killing RTS for good.

How are MoW and CtA that different from Wargame?
I play shit like Graviteam as well, but sometimes I need something a tad competitive with some proper production value.
>>126533375
They're not, and are explicitly allowed here.
>>126532934
>Command: Modern Air Naval Operation
Okay, so I'm just starting to get into serious wargaming, looking for a step up beyond Decisive Campaigns, Graiteam Tactics, stuff like that. Is this game what I'm looking for or is it impossible to get into unless I spend all my free time looking through Jane's books?
Need some opinions/guidance on this one, anons.
>>126520037
Campaigns are easy at first. The difference is that you need to mind your losses in the first scenarios, because the forces you have left are all you get in the latter scenarios
>>126521013
>hasty moving into the enemy
Don't do that. That's the equivilant of fast-moving a long formation column into enemy lines, leaving them exposed.
Use deliberate move for most travelling, as it provides you with some cover despite slowing your progress. Assault move leaves you exposed like Hasty (but not as much as) but is the only move type that you can use to take an enemy's position as they're still inside it
>>126529190
The Update refuses to load mods. Period.
You can make a mod that has 0 things in it, no changes, no conflicts, and it will crash when it tries to load it.
It's got nothing to do with what version the mod is, if I hadn't changed the mod version acceptance number, then it wouldn't be able to selectable in the first place.
So get off your high horse, you're the one that didn't understand the problem.
Why's the f15's radar in DCS so shit in comparison to the APG 68 that the f16 carries in Falcon BMS? I was under the impression that it was supposed to be a superior system, but the fucking thing seems to have a lot of trouble reliably detecting anything at range.
When is this wargame "purist" autist going to leave and let us enjoy our general?

If you are the kind of guy who reads Tom Clancy's Red Storm Rising and has to put down the book because he doesn't know wtf is being spoken about, then the game is definitely not for you.
i.e. if you are not AT THE VERY LEAST moderately acquainted with military hardware and doctrine of (primarily) the coldwar era, you will be spending 90% of your time reading military manuals and wiki's. Even if you are "moderately acquainted" you will be spending large amounts of time doing this sort of research. The more you know about the military hardware, the better you can tailor the missions and the more successful you will be.
The "game" is a learning exercise in military hardware, and probably the closest you are going to get to familiarizing yourself with all the hardware and how it interacts, without having to sign up IRL.
If you are not a fullblown military nut, I suspect this game will initially be more about learning than playing for you.If you like that kind of experience, go for it.
I just found out that the flood mode on the F15C gives launch warnings the moment an aircraft enters the circle since the missile radar is being used
I've never had this much fun on friendly airfields in MP
the moment a plane eters my FOV they get a WHOOP WHOOP WHOOP and they're confused as fuck
Anyone want to play some /WE WUZ KAINGS/?
