Damage is effected by range!? How can I play a game for so many years and not know lol. Don't tell me range effects other units and buildings too!

[@faxiahoudun4845]

Damage usually is not affected by range, although FLAK bursts are an exception. And it works only for aerial units, if Flak Trooper fires at a tank for example, the damage will not change. Aerial FLAK bursts increase in damage the closer enemy aircraft is though.

[@GaDominion]

[@silverwind4236]

the flak cannon's weapon is inaccurate, with a larger scatter distance the further away from the target it is. It also has a larger Area of Effect, meaning that it does damage even when it misses, with the damage decreasing depending on how badly it misses. When the enemy is far away, it misses by bigger margins, which in turn lowers the effective damage.

[@johndarrellesilva9695]

Me too.. didn't know flaks can do more damage that way

[@nemou4985]

it's not range decreasing damage, it's decreasing flak accuracy

[@MrSadisticLlama]

Seems really fair, with the Gatling turret being a powerhouse when spun right up, but unable to loss focus without losing its killing power. Patriot being a good middle ground, and Flak being good for air crowd control, but not much else outside the best when having the aircraft right on top of it.

[@nemou4985]

but Gatling can fire ground

[@MrSadisticLlama]

@@nemou4985 Thats why I said its a powerhouse that needs to not loss focus or it losses its killing power, hence firing at ground targets compared to air targets

[@keineangabe4434]

The flak turret is perfect against the allied lightly armored planes and rocketeers. It was clearly designed for allied vs. soviet combat. It was not designed to take down heavy armored kirovs. So yuri or other soviets kind of break the soviet AA concept, especially since the soviets only have flak as AA (not counting the apocalypse tank).

one slight weakness with Yuri is how limited the AA mobility is only having Gattling Tanks, no infantry and no naval AA. But it's not like i'm willing to fly over a Yuri base to drop bombs.

[@Praetarius]

Another weakness is that the gattling turret can also target ground units which means that when an enemy throws air+ground at the same time at you you may find your entire anti air defense focusing on ground units that should be already covered otherwise.

[@darykeng]

@@Praetarius well, just deep defense then? Also I can't remember, but walls prevent gatlings from firing ground units?

[@Praetarius]

@@darykeng I always forget that walls are a thing you can build, but yes that should work but would then reduce the cost effectiveness of the turrets a bit and also take up extra space you may want for proper units.

[@spectre9065]

Yuri also has Floating Discs which can attack air unlike Allied and Soviet aircraft (besides the helicopters' weak attacks). They are probably less cost effective than Rocketeers for AA support though.

[@keineangabe4434]

In fact the lack of naval AA can (under very limited circumstances) break the game for Yuri. There is simply nothing he can do to bring aircraft down when it is over water and his floating discs can't reach it. That way you can cheese with siege choppers, Kirov or even black hawks. Strategies include: -Bombing a narrow water passage with Kirov so no Boomer can get trough -> game breaking (if yuri can't reach the Kirov) -Place Siege choppers on tiny islands and bombard the enemy -> yuri can only reach with UFOs (which is not cost effective) -"Island hoping" with black hawks -> Yuri has to play catch-up with a hovercraft. If the enemy makes no mistake Yuri can not win this since hovercrafts are always slower

Did we watch the same video? the Gattling Cannon not only outperforms the other two in _almost_ every tested scenario, it is also able to fire on falling paratroopers, and can defend itself from ground attacks. In the unmodded game, it is easily the best AA defense.

[@mjc0961]

@@silverwind4236 First, this video didn't even show paratroopers, so I don't know why you mentioned that as if it was in the video and the other person didn't watch. Second, all AA defenses can fire on falling paratroopers so I further don't understand why you said that. Third, being able to defend itself from ground attacks can also be a weakness - a smart player can send in some tanks first to damage sponge, and then planes can fly in unharmed to bomb targets because the Gatling Guns are too busy shooting tanks to shoot the planes. Granted, a good Yuri player should be able to counter that, but it's still a Gatling Gun potential weakness. Doesn't look like easily the best AA defense to me at all. It's pretty balanced with the Flak Cannon, while the Patriot Missile is a definitive last place due to a slow rate of fire, the ability to miss (some of those planes dodged the missiles while turning around), and lack of anything special like the Flak Cannon's splash damage and the Gatling Gun's potential to keep firing and increase its damage output.

[@silverwind4236]

​@@mjc0961 no, they can't. in the UNMODDED game, the flak cannon and patriot missile can't fire on falling paratroopers. It's a feature that gets added by modders. I've been modding the game for over a decade. I know what I'm talking about. Using tanks to distract a gattling cannons does not work in reality, mainly because a Yuri commander never defends his base with JUST gattling cannons. A team of short range tanks just gets mindcontrolled and turned against the attacker. Artillery units don't draw fire, and the _only_ offensive unit that can draw fire is weakly armored (robot tanks), and not available to soviet players. If you can afford to 'draw fire' inside a Yuri base, you might as well destroy that base with the units you're using to draw fire. It shouldn't come to an air raid. Defending against such a tactic doesn't require a 'good' Yuri player. Even the brutal AI does that just fine. The flak cannon has one strength - fire spread that is _only_ effective against AI players (a good human player won't let his Kirovs get that close to each other). The video clearly shows the gattling gun keeping up even in scenarios where the flak cannon has an advantage. All of this only applies to the unmodded game. Every mod is different in how the modder decides to balance the game. Most of them allow all AA defenses to fire on paratroopers, and change the patriot missile to fire 2 independent missiles at once (firing on 2 aircraft simultaneously). These aren't relevant to the discussion.

[@1213kevinmo]

I played both UNMODDED RA2 and Yuri, the flak and patriots DO fire to the falling troopers.

[@spectre9065]

The Gattling Cannon and Flak Cannon clearly outperform Patriot missiles in every way. The only advantageous scenario for missiles is hitting single targets at long range (Gattling has less range than Flak and missiles). Yuri can also use Gattling Tanks garrisoned in bunkers, which are much stronger than Gattling turrets, except that the Gattling tank can be targeted by Harriers/Black Eagles.

[@TheFurious74]

As I always say - Yuri's air defence is absolutely OP!

People tend overestimate Flak AoE in general. Yes, it does have the most AoE out of all the defenses, no, it's not the size of Texas. Gatling Towers are the best defense but, why would you when you have Gatling Tanks inside of Tank Bunkers? Well, Gatling Tanks have a slightly lower damage output and can be killed by jets very easily. That said, Gatlings ARE better because they're hitscan(instant hit, doesn't miss). The Allies can pump out a bajillion rocketeers and that's like their best AA outside of naval combat(Aegis). Guardian GIs are also good especially in a Battlefortress NOT in an IFV. Elite IFVs are your other option--one of the best Elite power gaps in the game.

[@spectre9065]

Lower damage output compared to what? A Gattling tank OUTSIDE a tank bunker has the exact same weapon as the Gattling Cannon, and the Tank Bunker increases its range, damage, and fire rate.

[@flaminghailstorm9149]

SAM actually has longer range. Give RA2's missiles extra range! They need better velocity too, except Aegis cruiser ones that are already fast enough. They should also deal splash AoE damage and suffer a small delay for target locking. Maybe implement 1. improved homing ability to counter dodging maneuvers, 2. multiple shot ability and 3. extra long range radar guided targeting (requires a working radar) on the Patriot missiles using affordable unlocks that require the battle lab. Then, radar guided SAM combined with spy on enemy battle lab unlocks missile defense. Shoot down ICBMs like the real Patriot Missiles do. The whole upgraded SAM package can also be made available for all factions with a new AA gun added to Allies. SAMs targeting dropping paratroopers is quite far fetched. Let other weapons take care of them at low altitudes. Put the new Allied AA gun to good use. In RA2, missile launchers suck bcoz grouped launchers are easily countered by rocket volleys and grouped targets as missiles launchers target the first incoming target and end up wasting most shots. Maybe some kind of grouped targeting algorithm or AI can solve this problem. All the missile units and structures will massively benefit from this. Flak and Gatling guns have a common advantage of hitting targets instantly. (It's called hitscan, right?) Like the flak guns, the OP Gatling turret should also have limited accuracy at longer range, especially against moving targets. Gatling guns should also fire at most long bursts then slow down to a stop for short cooldowns. That'd be a big nerf though. BTW the devs wasted their chance to implement American freedom brrrt. Let Yuri have some other AA gun, or even better, a sci-fi anti-air weapon instead. Maybe a mod can implement my suggestions above.

@@QuangHuyDoan no one pumps out 30 or more kirovs at you in a standard (with unmodified rules) game, well at least with good enough players they won't let you do that, they would just pump out tanks to try and kill you, you would be able to build one or two kirovs at most maybe, but 30? Nah.

In fact, you can barely see kirov in any PVP games...
