[@DUTCH_FETT]

Being able to make my own marine amphibious landing missions or paratrooper missions is going to be so fucking dope

[@operator9858]

cool yes, altho i feel obligated to point out that nobody really does either anymore as they are both deemed too risky in any place thats actually contested....

[@bammbalam]

most anticipated game of 2025 for me

[@Bandanner]

It's certainly up there

[@CapybaraConnoisseur89]

Definitely is for me

[@g3koot100]

Same

[@Recon19D3]

It is for me as well. I haven't played RTS games since Company of Heroes, and C&C Generals before that. But now I'm trying to relearn how to play them just for this game.

[@g3koot100]

Haha I do too😂​@@Recon19D3

[@Rexini_Kobalt]

im so damn excited 😂😂 the last beta was so much fun

[@Zero.42]

Please keep us updated on any more PvE news and updates!

[@raygunreagan2274]

Pretty excited for the next open beta hopefully there’s no problems like the last open beta

[@Bandanner]

I mean, expect a few issues as they are deliberately testing server capacity etc. but hopefully less issues.

[@p.uri.tanner]

The solution they are not thinking about: Warcrimes Gamemode.

[@scp_rp_enjoyer]

Who ever destroys the most civilian buildings, wins

[@Phantom1188_]

I want to hear a bout more game modes that just the one. Despite how the multiplayer game mode worked out in the first open beta I still really enjoyed it I hope we can play it that way again

[@Bandanner]

That might be something for custom games in the final version? But I think the plan is a single mode for auto match.

[@hotaninja05]

I'm in the closed beta and yeah it's good

[@Joachim133793]

Im stoked to try out the game in coop with my friend

[@scottdinser9483]

I would be too if I had any friends that play these types of games I feel like a good squad working together will just destroy the competition in matchmaking

[@Bandanner]

It's always worth joining the official discord to find people to play with.

[@_TrueDesire_]

10:10 I do think 10% is too much, even 5% is generous.

[@Bandanner]

I think both are reasonable, 10% might seem excessive when there are a lot of points in one section, maybe should have been up to a maximum cap? But I guess it limits your spending elsewhere in response.

[@Deathtrouper]

Wait so is there going to be an open beta or no? i was actually hyped because on the 12th sea power has an open beta and playing both games would be awesome

[@Bandanner]

Yes there is...

[@Deathtrouper]

@Bandanner thanks mate

[@dumdumbinks274]

Sea Power goes into early access on the 12th, not open beta. You have to pay for it.

[@angestellterderantifagmbh]

Are you going to stream the Open Beta?

[@Bandanner]

If I get chance yes, I got a puppy a few months ago and she takes a lot of my time and its hard to set aside 3-4 hours or more to stream without interruption etc. I will certainly be putting up videos regardless.

[@catfunt5583]

When’s the next open beta?

[@theborg6024]

starts on nov 12th, pray for good servers

[@catfunt5583]

@ what!! That’s the sea power release date. What will I play…

[@CaptainZero264]

Is there any way to comp stomp in custom games or is it gonna be strictly coop scenarios? An if just the coop scenarios, will those scenarios allow deck building ?

[@Bandanner]

Custom scenarios are the only things mentioned so far, unclear on the deck building but I guess maybe as that will depend on what the creator outlines? It might be one day in the far future we can hope they add proper AI for skirmish.

[@CaptainZero264]

@@Bandanner Thank you Sir

[@mrV69]

When is it supposed to come out 2025?

[@Bandanner]

Currently early 2025....

[@mrV69]

@ let’s hope so.

[@angestellterderantifagmbh]

USA and Russia on the same team. There is probably no parallel universe, where this happens in reality....I love it

[@Bandanner]

Haha, well I think it happened in one of the Tom Clancy novels if I remember correctly, the Bear and the Dragon was it? Though that's not reality I guess.

[@monarchco]

We could have been allies. Trump during term one wanted to know why we weren't friendly with Russia for better economic trade, and more peace. The beurocratic state did not like that, so they kicked off the Russiagate hoax to make sure Trump couldn't get America friendly with Russia. If Trump wasn't blockaded by the unelected deep state types, then Russia probably never would have invaded Ukraine, and there's a good chance we'd be friendly with Russia now.

[@Recon19D3]

i cant wait for it but how much will it cost first releasing ??

[@Bandanner]

No pricing has been discussed.

@@Bandanner oh i see + is china comin on release or open beta in 3 days ?

@-po. China would be a future paid DLC, it is only Russia and the USA on release.

[@sd_league]

Eugen please copy the matchmaking system!

[@Bandanner]

If only

[@Forestmarko]

what do you mean ? not thrilled that a level 40 person can roflstomp a newbie that just bought the game with no real control over matchmaking ? I honestly like the wargoals mode as it combines both modes and gives you *something* when one flank is crushed beyond hope. The more modes the better..

[@Bandanner]

@@Forestmarko Warno has no matchmaker outside of 1v1

[@operator9858]

theres a match making system? all i see are custom games. custom games where they kick if you if you dont have a ranking of 1700 or higher from day 1....i literally havent been able to play a single game because of these arse faces....

[@Bandanner]

@operator9858 only for 1v1 ranked thats the issue. Assuming you are referring to WARNO.

[@m.gilangwiradhan9981]

Most players 😅 I think they trying to test their limit again for the servers, hopefully not like last beta for day one the servers is bad. I know rts is not like major genre but if the game interesting then hundred thousand people gonna Play. I forget the last beta how much 🤔

[@Bandanner]

Haha well, it was tens of thousands last time I think? But yes they want to see if they can cause server crashes

[@tonyng3285]

How do I deal with Russian sniping my arty and anti air?

[@rpscorp9457]

only a matter of time before cheaters ruin ranked mode.

[@Bandanner]

They said they have an anti cheat system... Server side was it? I forget not sure if it's in yet.

[@4nge1us]

Comment for the algorithme.

[@Bandanner]

I love you ❤️

[@midnightsun1443]

I don't understand the hate for the original game mode. Sure, your enemy could push one point and win, but it says more about your mistakes than anything. If you don't push your opponent when you have an advantage and don't constantly deny him points to amass the last minute capture, you're playing it wrong and deserve to lose. If your opponent was smart, preserved his resources and pushed successfully into an undefended area, he deserves the win, even if he did it at the end of the timer.

[@Bandanner]

Well the issue is due to the way the games economy works (and remember its a 5 person team not just one opponent). In the sense you could be defending an entire map well, be in control of more points, but the enemy pool their resources and push in the last minute or two on one/two points and it would be impossible to predict on some maps which one and coordinate to defend in time. So technically you could do everything right till that point. 5 players all hitting one/two players defending one point is difficult to respond to in just a couple of minutes, if you are covering other areas. This was not liked as it made the last what 40-43 minutes of the game pointless.

[@_TrueDesire_]

​@Bandanner they should have set the time to 30 minutes for that mode 👍🏻 looking forward to try out the new mode!

[@operator9858]

still cant get into a single game. not because of the game. but the community is the most oppressive ive ever seen in my life. if you dont have a 1700 rating or higher to start you might as well not even bother.

[@Bandanner]

Ah you did mean broken arrow, the open beta has not started yet. It's currently a closed beta with limited players, you are likely to have more luck after the 12th.

[@operator9858]

@@Bandanner thats even worse bro. its a closed beta where nobody will let you play if you arent highly ranked already?

[@Bandanner]

​@@operator9858 I am not sure what you expect anyone or me to say? the closed beta is under NDA so no one can really discuss it. I was just giving a suggestion that you wait as you seemed frustrated with it right now. No magic wand to fix this type of thing, as with many online games people often only want to play with other "good" players so they can win. Not saying its "right" but its how it tends to be. Your other option is to try and find a group on the official discord to play with.

[@notveryinterestinginformat8590]

@@operator9858 I found that in the last open beta. My friend would frequently be kicked for being low rank on the last 2 days.

[@Phantom1188_]

@@notveryinterestinginformat8590 they had a chat on the discord to find a group that would play with you even inexperienced players. My crew and I regularly welcomed inexperienced players.
