Beta Revision 2 changelog with a list of proposed changes and bugfixes.

 

Discuss.

[Volchow]

I think, that Tesla Cruisers should be fixed a bit. They should deal bigger damage. For now, they only barely beat Qilin .

[Graion Dilach]

No Perun? No Perun.

Then the unit's sole purpose was to put up another voiceset into the sheet everyone knew about.

[switchblade16]

Perun, uh what is Perun? Huehuehue.

[Petya]

Speeder talked something about rethinking the Perun, but not sure that it will happen.

[Meyerm]

Hmm... Scoprion Cell wouldn't feel like Epsilon if they didn't have at least 1 mind control unit. Keep Hijacker and adept in their places, maybe?

[Sizyfos31]

Well, Confederation will lose great anti-armor anti-infantry combination for Catashtrophe, when they lose Tesla troopers. Too bad. Thought to have two good anti-armor inf. on T2 might was too much.

 

Excited, how good the napalm strike form Vulture will be. (attack intervals?)

 

And the Smoke turret : will the range be circa as the Tesla Coil one? And will it have splash? I have a feeling, that Vulture's smoke cannon has splash, yet I don't use it that much to be certainly sure.

[Atomic_Noodles]

I can sorta understand why Hijacker would be moved to Scorpion Cell though. Seeing as the LC already have Morales + Engineer for reclaiming Vehicles.

 

I imagine the Smoke Turret would have "Artillery Defense" Range since it doesn't do damage and just providing Effects Support like the New Coord Node will be.

IMO, the RPCM system is a bit funky. And still, moving EP T2 unique units to T2.5 doesn't make that much sense. And Mortarquad in this case is underpowered, maybe needs greater speed and range.

Mortar quad? They're even useful in late games IMO.

They server as anti-armor-siege units and their speed and range are decent.

They can't be crushed by most vehicles or killed by attack dogs.

 

I've been playing lots of LC recently and I just feel that way.

[Psionic Psychic]

Speeder, why remove the ICBM sequence in Sunlight? That scene was one of the best scenes of all the missions.

[X1Destroy]

Abrams still have no change about hitpoint

[Haxxan]

The thing about SC not having adepts bugs me. Wont it make them even more weak? And besides they wont have any mind control units :(

 

Aw no more weavers, my favourite unit :<

Actually a Hijacker fits more for Scorpion Cell than Adept, because with the Hijacker you can actually do lots of new tactics, which you couldn't do with an Adept. Think about it. Doing Driller APC attacks with Adepts are often end badly, because the control can be ceased via eliminating the controller Adept. Adepts also vulnerable to dog attacks. Hijacker is a fast, disguisable and these two attributes make them perfect for good tactics.

People will still lose their bases to Wolfhound spam, i can tell you that already.
(speaking of spamming, Thors and Nuwas will be still spammed, those changes simply make it take longer to get a critical mass of them)

1150 on Nuwa got increased to 1200. At this rate, there will be no hp nerf for Nuwa on BR2 release.

I hope Wolfhounds and Warhawks don't share their warhead anymore, because this would be a stealth nerf for Warhawks.
 

And Mortarquad in this case is underpowered, maybe needs greater speed and range.

I never noticed MQ being UP, it's one of the best units Confeds have. Long-ish range, good anti-armor, immune to crushing and dogs. The only thing Tesla Troopers are better than MQs is anti-infantry, fitting into Catas and powering-up the Tesla Coils (Tesla Coils being the only reason they weren't removed earlier).
 

Hijacker is a fast, disguisable and these two attributes make them perfect for good tactics.

Except dealing with Nuwas. Adepts can take over a Nuwa and run away, leaving Nuwas to kill eachother, then come back and repeat the process (even if they will have same range). Hijackers have to get close and, in this case, are usable only once, since they won't survive the radiation other Nuwas will create. But perhaps this won't be an issue, since if they would prove to be ineffective against Nuwas, Scorpion Cell still has Speeder Trikes that are now immune to EMP.

A Hijacker is way cheaper than Adept, so losing one isn't as big as losing an Adept.

[Hecthor Doomhammer]

- United States Mercury Uplink is available after building Air Force Command HQ, build limit removed, capturable, it is a prerequisite for Warhawk, requires 100 power units and costs $1000

 

 

I don't really get the Bold part of this. Is it because it's now capturable?

I think the main reason its built limit will get removed is that it will no longer be T2 SW, but substitution for Allied Strategy Center (and kind of T2.5 structure). You can buld infinite amount of Strategy centres, but not infinite amount of SWs.

[Speeder]

Also yes.

[GameMaster0000]

No change on dog?

 

Endless chase is very bug me and also not look realistic.
