Hey vale you should play command and conquer 3

[@twojacksandanace3847]

When an entire army invades and you have like 3 infantry squads just hide and build a shit ton of turrets and hope you either win after rebuilding them for 30 min straight or kill like half their army. And if your attacking and have no chance to win just hide and gather all your units together so they can't pick you off and just wait for bombing runs and orbital strikes to replenish and just do that to win.

[@Qwompus]

Oh yeah, I remember when Obi-Wan suicide sprinted into a droideka squad and ghost-faded out when he died. That was such a good scene.

[@scottski02]

Still better than Admiral Akbar's death

[@GladDori]

@@scottski02 Yeah oh no they killed a character who was mostly known for a meme in such a horrible way!!! You know most people don't want a film filled with pure fan service.

[@scottski02]

. if Akbar meant that little to the writers then why even have him in the film at all? Either treat characters with respect or don't have them at all. I'd rather have a film with fan service than a film with fan hatred, which was what TLJ was.

[@GladDori]

@scottski02 It's supposed to be a reference to the keen eyed.. Also like Ackbar is mostly known for a fucking meme! The general audience can't exactly take a heroic sacrifice by a fishman seriously. How was it about fan hatred??? The villain's ideals? Umm the movie is about how that's wrong. Luke? Because he wasn't space god? Or because the whiny farm boy prone to quitting grew old after trauma and had more trauma which made him quit? Oh boy! Do i even need to address that further? The Nike campaign? Since the movie itself didn't do any more feminist shit than the origtrig did.. The hyperspace ram? It was established in Legends (for example the shourd's plan in swtor is to fuck up corucant by ramming ships into it from hyperspace) it was also established in Tarkin and that came out in 2014. PLEASE FUCKING TELL ME HOW IT WAS ABOUT FAN HATRED

[@GladDori]

@Kaja de Borst You know that one of the bigger critiques of R1 was that the deaths didn't feel like they mattered so yeah.. in universe it's not a surprise that they named a ship after him, that's not a hard concept to understand. But if it was set up by characters in the universe that means that people have done it before! Like goddammit, also the reasons why they wouldn't use ships for that include: Hyperspace drives cost a lot of money, The Empire has a way bigger fleet than the rebels, you have to be really lucky to pull off that much destruction (the debri is what destroyed the rest of the fleet and the explosion happened cause the raddus had a strong prototype shield) and considering that it destroyed like 1/10th? of snoke's ship if you do the math you would need a way bigger ship to destroy the death star, which is something that the rebels didn't have and even if they did they wouldn't waste their prime asset in a fleet battle by ramming it towards 1 superweapon that can be taken out with small starfighters. I do agree with the your last point partially cause he was ready to sacrifice the galaxy to save his friends and that usually 180 don't work. But then you seem to forget that Luke almost killed Vader when he mentioned Leia, so why wouldn't he CONSIDER for a split second that killing one loved one could save the rest? Again he just considered it and turned the lightsaber on out of instinct, he immediately regretted it and was never going to do it. (also remember how real visions seem like? tfa shows this so it's not really that big of a stretch that a war veteran would consider doing that after seeing shit like it)

[@alexandersturnn4530]

Depends on Situation though. While the Rebels have a pretty much all-powerful Ground-Unit (Garm Bel Iblis and his Tank), the Consortium has literally superior stuff in all "Normal"-Units both on Ground and in Space (not to mention this completly overpowered Corruption-System of theirs), while the Empire is, on the latest Tech-Levels, ridiculously broken in Space. Seriously, the Hero-Units and Death-Star II alone can win every single fight, not to mention that the letter makes Ground-fighting obsolete since it can just blow the whole Planet up, negating the one true advantage the Rebels have in this entire Game. It's still a ton of fun to play though.^^

[@izaakwedgwood9153]

Lockret yeah and if you play galactic assault you can just setup fleets above all the planets and get however big of an army as you want

[@drazarkabalblade9486]

Wait, the multyplayer of this game is still alive?!? For real? O_o About the balance: To be fair, the problem with the Rebels is that as a faction it works better in space and in speedy hit and run attacks. Guerrilla, litteraly. ( which is why most of their early game units are speedy and/or outright don't care about terrain). So when you get in to a firefight where you cant' win... it gets iffy. In the campaing map is harder too. At the same time most of the planets natives are on your side.. which means FREE UNENDYING TROOPS. Sure, they die like ants pitted against a tank, but at some point they either tend to win or they grind the enemy forces so much that you are already set up against them to win XD

[@bluenova123]

The funny thing is that 40k imperial guard tactics can actually work for the rebels. Just treat the natives as guardsmen, they can either tie up the enemy allowing your good units to get stuff done, and they can also eventually grind down the opposition while taking massive casualties.

[@MrZarthalan]

Yeah it is! People still play it because there hasn't been a game like it. Well except for universe at war, but even that's pretty different. Mod support is pretty impressive too, and that community is still alive as well. EAW remake came out just last year, and it greatly improves the graphics and adds some new units and tweaks w/o breaking the original's philosophy. The consortium have weaknesses as well if we're talking balance. They really can't play from behind, and their ships are all glass cannons. Aggressors might have that really good cannon, but it's ONE hardpoint you have to destroy to make the ship absolutely useless. Ditto w/ mass drivers. They're still a massive pain in multiplayer though because corruption is a really powerful mechanic that's hard to deal with if a player is committed to abusing it.

[@robertharris6092]

Rebelions actualy the strongest in space. Just build the MC80 frigates it has multiple rapid fire proton torpedo launchers... which ignore shields... and its very fast. And it destroys fighters too.

I've played a lot of the base EAW and in my opinion it's the Rebellion that's broken. Between 1) remote bombing with MPTL spotters, 2) raiding with Airspeeders to take out ground-to-space weapons, and 3) those fucking Ion Cannons disabling anything larger than a Tartan, the Empire is essentially screwed until they manage to build the Death Star, and even then it's a grind to the end if you're playing as the Imperials. Also some advice for novice players: focus more on grand strategy than battle tactics. *Not all planets are equally valuable.* Knowing which planets to base your conquest strategy around is key to being good at this game. I recommend doing a playthrough on Easy and, just before you defeat the AI, go back and fill every planet with Mining Facilities. That should give you a good idea about what to aim for.
