You expect Tier 2 defenses to win against Tier 3 (!) siege units. Stalkers are supposed to break down defenses, so there is no way this will be done. Not like that +1 range wont help them anyway - they will still be outranged. Regarding shirkes, they have problem with jets, but anything slower can get dispatched rather easily. Shrikes attacking Tareting Drones cannot be fixed, if thats what you mean.
Its not like I physically wanted em to win against em ( T3 siege weapons ) easily at all, hence why I said +1 range
BTW. There is only one unit that can outrange T2 defenses. Siege cadre. And let it stay that way.
Also, another fun fact that you may probably not realize: There is only one advanced (tier 3) anti air defensive structure. Its called Skyray. Therefopre yoru argument about X faction not having T3 aa defnse so we need buffs also is nothing but a dream.
Moving, on, we see this.
Literally every single faction in game have available T3 anti air unit. Aeroblaze, Thor, Blizzard, Wolfhound, (Flak) Catastrophe, Sentinel, Gehenna, Oxidizer, Collosi, Shadray, Alanqa, Giantsbane.
the advice is good, only if i had more information on those units than just listing em, listing em is good but i kinda have no idea on how to use some of em.
1. Jacko is right in that case. If you mainly rely on defenses to stop enemy assault, you wont live long.
Its worth a shot :o I try every day. I don't win every game but I can survive for quite large amounts of time. It depends really...
2. There is one T3 AA defense and thats all. Not to mention it sacrifices the splash for damage too.
I do admit, one is something. But just something... wonder how effective it is...
3. All air units have self healing (beside rocketeers i think). Also you can park most of them near Soviet Cranes for repairs.
... Prisms do not require buffs. Also both of options you wrote are literally impossible.
Is it really that impossible and besides, how would you know :O well... You could be working on your own mods but you can't physically know unless you have tried it before. Have you...? Also, I think I don't see you creating anything for this discussion like coming up with new ideas, no mater how daft or incompetent, you aren't really creating anything constructive... even if its stupid, a new idea is a new idea no matter how bad or different it is.
"Yet you aregue"
You all tell me off for not being formal yet others make big spelling mistakes and don't get told off or anything they make huge quote spams and so on yet nothing against them? I know its natural to make mistakes but a bit of proof-reading wouldn't hurt. ._. Like... Come on, if a newbie can proof-read their own work then you "veterans" etc should be able to as well :O
with veterans of multiplayer regarding balance of game. Not like we are elitists, but we have seen more than simple "enemy spams right intop my defensive line", so i can clearly say - we have the experience and a lot of examples in mind.
So, what you are implying is that i'm not allowed to talk about balance, argue with anyone above my skill level and i should just leave cause i'm not some instant professional at everything? Well. That is the vibe i'm picking up. Well, if you don't want new players saying anything in these discussions just say so... Please... I'd much rather cop it direct to my face rather than you just saying you are experienced and so on and saying not to argue with experienced people yet... even the experienced people are getting things wrong, hardcore.
"we play differently" is not a valid arguement. There are basics for every faction in the game. Mirages are perfect defense untis, Mastodons are the moving healing walls for your units. Start using them instead of standing in one place with your skills.
Hey... Words hurt... Also, I know its not an argument cause if you took a bit of time to understand it more, you should have theoretically came to the conclusion of it being a fact. I also presume you are being sarcastic with the "skills" part. Also, if you took some more time you may have realized that i can't play perfectly. See what i mean, you just "expect" us to use everything and be like you people and do the same tricks etc, i appreciate the random advice splodges but its over bloated and you didn't need to reply or criticize at all as you have now just over-bloated the discussion out, you didn't even shrink the text to be kind of considerate so it doesn't take up half of the web-page! i know i'm being seriously hypocritical though but come on. There was no need to continue the mega quotes. I know I am but still.
