Chem troops destroying buildings

[Sardauker-Kirov]

They should used a piston or some sort for the Inkvine instead of a Catapult.

The inkvine gets placed in the barrel of the Inkvine launcher and the piston will ram the projectile which will cause the inkvine eject into the air. The metal is strong ofcourse and the inkvine will have a small bomb inside that triggers in 3 seconds.

As for the Chemical troopers, it's the fault of the coders.

Besides, a flame infantry should be more effective.

No man this game is all realistic. I mean just look at arrakis its just like my backyard man, orange spice melange and the little 100 ton worms jumping out of my sandbox looking for harvesters...

LOL ::)

Duh what did u expect?? Realism? Bah, its a game based on a FAKE WORLD.

Maybe u missed my post, its a fake game jesus!

"As for the Chemical troopers, it's the fault of the coders.

Its not the fault of the coder maybe thats how it was supposed to be. And a flame infantry IS more effectice btw. You guys are dumb if u r whining about a game being fake WHEN THE GAME IS BASED ON A FAKE WORLD.

Actually, I would expect that the futuristic buildings would be fireproof espeially if they are military buildings. They are not made of wood you know.

[Elite47]

*shakes head* DOH! what dont u get about the game being fake? i mean come on wtf is deviator gas? wtf is an aa mine wtf is a goddamn devastator they're all fake, i mean come on fuckin plasma guns...?? Wtf is there to argue about its all fake, all based on something that doesnt exist!

The designers made it the way they wanted, so that is the way it is supposed to be. Also they had to balance everything and if they didnt then this game would be unfair and shitty. But its not its a great game so just shutup about how these little things that dont even matter should be changed. There is no unfair unbalanced units in the game with a couple minor exceptions and that is a good thing!

and you turn around and say games arent supposed to be realistic.

[Elite47]

Oh ya, why WOULDN'T a chemical sprayer be able to destroy buildings fast?? How the hell do u guys know what the chem spray is made of. This isn't toxic hairspray we're talking about here :P...

[ethan]

could be acid.

Gazzies kick ass ;D

[Repoman]

Fair enough but you would need to make chem troops that have vehicle and building chemicals and normal chemical troopers seperate.

As for missiles in real life a air to air missile has no hope in hell of hitting a ground target. To solve this and to make the game more interesting you should be able to get different types of weapons for different platforms.

About the relism. I was talking to my grandfather the other day who was in WW2 in the Australian artillery. He summed up war perfectly. They have taken all the sport out of it and its no fun anymore. You don't even get to see the guy who kills you anymore :'(

[babyface]

They have taken all the sport out of it and its no fun anymore.

Darn, thought it is more fun now...

I kill alot of opponents in emperor and don't have to feel guilty, or have to worry to go te hell cause i killed somany opponents ::)

[Ghosty_Square]

I think he meant real war, not emperor.

[atrd3m0n]

Jesus Christ man, why do ppl always have to make it so complicated. blablabla it should have seperate gas for buildings and blablabla and oh yea blablabla...

GAZZIES ROCK AND THAT'S A FACT

I rest my case :-*

What makes you think war has something to do with sports anyway ???

[ethan]

what makes you think killing people you dont know did anything wrong and dont know fun or a sport? :-

[Repoman]

Because now they use fuel air bombs which suck the air out of your lungs from deep within bunkers. If i was going to die in war i'd like to see the guy who outsmarted me for a sec before it was all over. Like that russian sniper who took out heaps of high ranking germans. You can't tell me that some guys thought killing people in war wasn't fun.

Also in relation to sport you should hear my grandfather describe what they did to try to focus their artillery fire as much as possible on the area that they were trying to hit. He with heaps of pride tells how the australian artillery could more accurately and fire quciker that their american counterparts.

but.. come to hink of it austrlians beat american's in just about everything 8) :P

[pointybum]

I am troubled. First I cannot believe what you are saying - war is for fun?

War is for shitting your pants on an ongoing basis, wondering when its going to end you physically, or mentally.

Dont offend the survivors or the bereaved, no matter how distant the war was - especially when there is a conflict brewing as we speak.

Chill out, of course, but dont insult others intelligences just by going with what your grandfather says. Great, he survived - your mere existence is thankful for his survival - dont knock the one's that didnt.

[Repoman]

Try reading pointy it helps when you have a debate ::)

I said some people would have thought it was fun. I din't say it was fun

I admire people in the war as they have more courage that i could ever imagine. I play paintball competitively and know how easy it is to get shot with semi automatic guns. Imagine how it feels to be an iraqi soldier.

I was using a real life analogy and alamating into the emperor computer game man.

[pointybum]

I am sorry Repo, but just look 6 inches up in your thread - how an earth can I misinterpret your saying.

mmm.. but if it is your attempt at using an analogy then fair enough.

War should not be fun. It should be effective. Long fighting just prolongs the deaths and suffering. Modern war has become effective, fast and ruthless. When one side is a lot stronger, you can expect for the war to end fast and with few casualties. What is bad about that?

exactly. i think peace is good, and i hate the idea of war. but war games are very, very fun.

lol Yeahh lol damn u make me laught in 5 topics ! ur comedian! ;D

[emprworm]

chem troops are FAST too. I think too many ppl forget that. They can outrun any hark inf easily. A sniper cannot chase one down. But I dont think its unbalanced. Ordos is an offensive house. Much more so, in my opinion, than even Harkonnen. Ordos makes the worst defense of all houses. It has no ground to air turret. Its aa mines are crap. Deployed Kobras are sitting ducks unless there is a mass of them, and you can still eat them alive with minos that outrange them, a few NAIBS, riding worms, or air assault- either gunships or ADP. Bottom line: if you play ordos, you need to be on the offensive. Playing defensively with ordos and waiting around for your enemy to come to you is usually a death sentence. Usually- but not always. (exceptions always exist, but this is just a general principle)
