Comm Pushes Are in the Past FYI

Postby Morax » 30 Aug 2016, 16:49

Okay, so one of my first legit games with the patch last night on hilly plat proved that a Sera Comm + Ilshie Push is a one-time attempt. My opponent was able to push me back a bit but I sent in some harbs/mercies and his comm had to resort to building shields and staying put for nearly the remainder of the game due to low hp boost and regen.

This isn't a complaint, more-so and FYI to people playing the game. If you plan to do a comm and army rush, be sure it will succeed because it's a complete waste of resources unless it does it's deal.

Good luck with new bal patch, all.

i don't understand, you fail an attack on him with your T2 army and com,then complain because you couldn't attack again...
you could still attack on T3 with nano and spam T3 afterward.
But i guess if you failed your first push and gave tons of reclaim to him, you would have lose anyway.


Maybe you also need to be more carefull that your commander don't take all the damage, so it can last in the battle longer.

Wrong: my opponent could not continue to attack ME because I know how the patch works and knew it was stupid to do so. He didn't have the resources nor the tech to push at t3 in time. The only reason he got close to making a sustained attack was because of his double/triple eco (game condition).

I knew what he was doing and basically didn't care because I knew it was silly to attempt a comm/army push.

This NEW HP, BP and REGEN is now to make happy SIMCITY PLAYERS who like setons or other huge maps.
Why u should use your ACU to figth now? Its insane!!

Much better to build an small firebase, upgrade RAS and start experimentals. U are forced to do it!!
20 minutes to fill ACU HP...

If he got hitted, u forced to protect them with a lot of shields all game. Because your enemy can make few bombers T2 after some minutes and attack, and u are still broked.
BE ON THE SHIELDS ALL GAME. DONT DO NOTHING with your main unit.
I really waiting for logical arguments to nerf ACUs.

Many setons players also dislike the patch.

Not just setons players...
Don't complain about that which you aren't willing to change.

Good amount of shit in so tiny space, if you really want your ACU repaired in short time, use some engies, end of the point. T1 engies are expendable and you got them everywhere (if not, you should).
You want to play only in small maps with your main unit? Go play HoTS, this game is about armies, of course you can use your ACU aggressively, but you need nano and gun for that (or shield, regen, stealth, that kind of crap) and an army behind. Rambo ACUs usually fail, now people will take more care about their ACU.
PD: Try to build an small firebase, upgrade RAS and start experimentals vs a good player, you will be overwhelmed by units in no time.
We have "Continentals" so moving shit around must be important.

Destructor, unfortunately your points is not 100% correct. I had done several com pushes, I regen decently fast. If I need higher regen I kill more, not get T2 because gun > T2 on 10x10 and 5x5. Since those compose 90% of my matches, I get T2 only after gun for the extra bit of HP that I will need while facing enemy T2 land.
