    If you play as NOD and have a mendoza trooper. all you need is 3 guys to rush one building and it will fall in seconds. You can not stop 10 mendozas in a rush period. 

    laughs in 1 MRLS
    Also, GDI equivalent of doza rush by efficiency(not price of troops) is gunner rush. Mobius rush is more of "get def buff and run inside and hope that Nod doesn't know what blocking is".

    I like how Steppe has a huge tibfield only vehicles can acces. The downside of Steppe is the long traveltimes everywhere else, causing it to be voted off most of the times.

    It's mostly voted off because it crashes 32-bit clients, same with Desolation.

    My suggestion;  tips/hints on map loading screen , could be random, single tips or basic strategies, just something to enlighten the noobs

    1)Loading screen when loading main menu from desktop:20190606160219_1.jpg.28bf24c192cff94caf0fee374c228339.thumb.jpg.b2bdb580d4946dc0e48d84275d0c3513.jpg

    2) When you load into any map, various tips appear over loading bar, usually 1 per loading screen(come on, could at least put 5-10 seconds timer). Probably overseen because of how fast PCs are these days except mine :(.

  4. You get stats on leaderboard when you finish multiplayer match with Steam being recognised by game(a.k.a your Steam account's nickname is used instead of what you've put in launcher), you can do it by opening the game when Steam is running in background, on Steam it will say that you're playing "Unreal Development Kit" since game isn't on Steam, but you still run UDK executable.

    teams are able to lay entire vehicle mine fields making vehicle rushes almost impossible

    AT Mines can be destroyed by simply shooting at them.

    Oh yes also the whole "magazine" design of Raveshaw makes no sense, as the reload time is the same as the "recharge" time between two shots. 

    Few lines from code:
    PIC(although second one is probably not used due to weapon having only 1 ammo in clip)

    ReloadTime(0) = 2.8
    BoltReloadTime(0) = 2.5f
    FireDelayTime = 0.33

    Railgun
     

    ReloadTime(0) = 2.8
    BoltReloadTime(0) = 2.5f
    FireDelayTime = 0.25

    Also fun fact: before they got charge-up and pierce mechanics, both weapons had 4 ammo per clip, making them identical. Right now Railgun has somewhat higher DPS, if you jump out of cover to shoot as soon as your shot is ready.

    Also there is no matchmaking either the game just drops new players into the match and they have no control of the game what so ever forcing them to leave or just play a skrimish match against AI.

    Can't do matchmaking when there's only 1 pub server alive every day. People's mentality makes them not join empty servers and just wait until free slot will appear on the only alive server.

    should the specialist units be dropping their weapons instead of armon for eg if i kill sbh  i should be getting his gun this way it will bring value of killing specialist clases.

    I'll say this: SBH Sniper doesn't exist in this game for a reason.

  8. I would say this on topic of why Nod loses much more:

    1)By design they need brains to use terrain advantage and their units or cooperation to destroy GDI. Good luck getting that in pubs.

    2)Way too many situational units:

       Chem Warrior Trooper - requires tight spaces like tunnels to be effective against fast GDI infantry (he's still good as of 5.463).

       SBH(Stealth Black Hand) - having unique armor that makes him not viable at all against Mobius and having stealth technology, which many people usually use to only hide (I actually really want to know why new players do this so often). Mostly because of that Nod doesn't have good middle advanced anti-infantry unit like GDI has with Patch.

    Flame Tank - as was mentioned already, REQUIRES CHOKE POINTS, since its flamethrowers have small cone of fire, which makes it non-viable against infantry much. If I would say anything, this tank is close range Mammoth Tank - can kill tanks fast enough, but he's number one target for everyone.

    Stealth Tank - yet again, stealth unit, so it already suffers from "I love to hide forever" new player syndrome. Also requires cooperation to kill anything higher than MRLS alone(but with abusing terrain and his slow spinning animation, you could probably kill Mammoth solo). At least decent AA unit.

    LCG(Laser ChainGunner) - definition of a tank on 2 legs, he has insane armor values(250/325/400/475), but also being slowest unit in the game(85 speed). Due to this and his weapon of choice having very limited range, he's mostly good as defensive unit. Carries EMP Grenade, which already screams in teamwork being required, unless targets themselves aren't too bright either.

    3)Recent changes to mines, but that hurt both sides I think.

    I think that some of Nod units should be made more interesting to play(but then again, how are you gonna make a mantank interesting to play?), give them incentive to get out of stealth more or just limit stealth on SBH, like Infiltrator in Planetside 2(for those who never heard or played it, Infiltrator is class that has limited time for stealth, which regenerates its charge when you don't use it).

    also  handepsilon any plans to add visceroid mechanic to the maps. possible tiberian based weapons kills can spawn a neutral agro visceroid with the mechanic that tiberian based weapons regenerate its health.the tiberian weapons are also able to make it stronger/evolve really miss the visceroids and mutants from the original there even in the original maps of renegade still active+crate can transform ya into 1 sometimes in there.

    I'll say it in one sentence:
    New model and animations are hard to make.

    shit looks like a hydrogen bomb. Wonder if terrorists were involved or it was just some accident.

    It's reported that it was 2.750 tons of ammonium nitrate that was "left unsecured for six years in a warehouse".

    Yes, this project isn't something like AM2R or Crono Trigger Resurrection, it isn't being made in secret. 

    AM2R was known to public and Nintendo for a long time, but yeah, when Chrono Trigger Resurrection became known, it was shut down immediately.

    Someone was hosting torrents or other full downloads of the betas, but I don't think those are being kept up anymore.

    Itweek was hosting full downloads, but he hasn't updated it in a year or so.

    sorry did not have Steam open for screenshot.

    You can make in-game screenshots by pressing F9, it will save them in UDKGame/Screenshots(note:they use bmp format, so it's better to convert them via Paint first).
