Lightroiper where are yesterdays gameplay screenshots that you promised.
It didn't actually save any, despite giving me FPS lag every time I hit the key, the default folder isn't even there. Suspect me of dubious practice if you wish, I did lose the game but it's a damn shame I couldn't give a write up, I'll try a diff screenshot program later today.
Russians are sweet. The barracks is inexpensive if I recall comparatively, the infantry produces superinstafast, and the support aircraft just fits. Fun army.
Russians are quirky but have a pretty strong tank game and seem easily adaptable with cheap buildings, that said their anti air is terribad. The british have a strong air game but take a beating from anti-air quite badly, one thing the collective RUSE crew have noted though is that they are great at getting early map control with their cheap and most importantly very quick to produce from start of game paratroopers, their ground forces don't match up to other factions but I think the idea is you simply out produce them and kill with mediocrity. Note however this is just first impressions and are subject to changing.
Apparently you can cheese the ranking games by getting a friend to join your game as you are queuing for a 1v1 which will put the two of you against each other, it's made me curious to see whether the same effect can be pulled off for 2v2 for a ghetto version of arranged teams.
P.S. World Wars: The Chaffees strike back, fuck I love that tank.
So goddamn, I wander into G&T at 4:30am and I find this thread. This looks like a helluva lot of fun - key application is in, will D/L and jump in as soon as I can.
Note that the fileplanet offer is for North American and Canadian users only, but proxies or asking a friend to grab a key for you will work. There were other promotions to give out keys but looks like they have ran out of keys.
WTF, when did we get kicked out of North America??

Treaty of Boulder, 1873.
You got to keep ice hockey, but had to give up your spot in North America. Generally viewed as one of the defining moments in Canadian politics.

It was a sad day when canada realized allying with the entire united states during the american civil war meant they would be on the losing side one way or another.
Anyways, got a key, downloading now... hope its as fun as it looks!
We've usually got a group of people on the PA vent playing in the RUSE channel there, if we're in fact not it's because we're using a RUSE and actually playing Modern Warfare 2.
I've had my RUSE key for awhile, but I couldn't find anyone to play with... and I don't think my computer will run it very well. Nonetheless, I am up for the challenge.
I'll be on steam in a bit, if anyone else wants to try to play. I tried last night, but either matchmaking is broken or I was the only other person online.
Got in a quick game before heading for the girlfriends. Stomped the guy, despite me having never played before, and him having played(probably not much, but still).
Chaffee's are amazing, a good B-17 is a game winner, and I need to learn how to use artillery more effectively.
I am afraid that the British might be overpowered against the Russians, or, in particular, that the Russian AA is insufficiently powerful against aircraft. I mean, their upgraded armoured AA truck does the same damage as a $5 BOFORs emplacement.
And that's as good as they get - except for their own fighters of course, which still seem inferior to the other factions equivilents.
Double post, yes, but a believe the content warrants it. Looks like we'll be seeing yet another update to the beta next week, likely Monday if they stick to their normal release schedule up to now...which will introduce:
(Lol at France resistance. And look at how similar their flags are. Get a room, France and Italy!)
And they also tease of a new game mode, which would suggest 3v3 to me...and we could really use it, as the vent channel has been a bit overfull lately. Bastards.
Personally, I think France should have had 3 research instead of strength, and 1 productivity instead of aerial combat. They were quite good at both, at least in 1941, though they couldn't pump out enough D.520's because of problems with the aerial manufacturers, and other than some design flaws in major areas(We've all heard about the cramped french tank turrets), had some of the most advanced tech before, you know, being crushed.
I'm enough of a wargamer at heart to hate the idea of abstracting nations into two or three stats like that. It doesn't detract from my ability to enjoy a game for what it is, but it's always there in the back of my mind, waiting.
I'm looking forward to the French coming out, because I loves me some turtling. I still like the idea of the game, but I think it would benefit from a higher input on the strategic level. Like instead of managing single tanks and planes, you could direct brigade-level units.
I got my key today too, and in a match with terrible lag too. Each second was stretched into 10 because of the lag, so I decided that I didn't have a week to start preparing troops and quit

are they awesome

Why do you keep calling him Lightroiper?
In-joke.
I'd explain to you but then I'd have to kill you.
Well why would you have to do that?
Why must you question everything subedii?! Just take things at face value like a good little soldier.
How will my ruses work if you're perpetually questioning my actions?!

We were too busy to play tho. Gonna have to try this out later.
Woo!
That is, if people stop bullying me and excluding me from the one game I actually actively play at the moment.
Goddamn CoD4 clique and their 'cool crowd'.

Though I keep getting my ass handed to me, anyone got some tips?

More testing required.

Looks like the Chafee rush might have some competition...

To make the wait worse, have a video that demonstrates one of the tamer tactics I've seen.

Honestly it's a complete mystery, like what is in... the box
