And stopping them from being ground-fired would be a net good because.....?
Because they are fucking subs, gunning down a submerged submarine is fucking stupid. The synergy of air and naval goes through the window when all you need are cruisers and BBs.
Subs should be subs instead the current underwater LAB we currently have.
This just sound like a lot of noise for a stupid bug wich issues fix itself by playing more. Fixing the bug should be the unique solution as reviewing replays, sending warnings and applying bans takes time that could be used elsewhere.
@sprouto Well that sounds dope! Having T2 torps droping probes to detect subs as IRL. 10/10 Makes subs great again.
@khabume <<am a technically newbie with less than 100 games. I am most likely one of the people you're going to lose in 2 years. If I try to look forward, here's what I see and feel. I mostly play custom games, because that's the first thing that presents itself when you start Downlord's FAF Client, so I've stuck with it. I'm not a huge fan of 1v1. I like Team Games.>>
Also: <<tech race and units rant>>
Well, the first thing is the cause of the second thing, in big team games everyone goes for the fastest eco -> higher units, at least one player in each team. For better FAF experience go to 2vs2 ladder games, it just gave us so much fresh air where more tactics are avaliable.
@valki said in TML is broken:
Can confirm they get stuck, but also an easy unstuck. I often use shift-G spread attack with multiple TML, sometimes they get stuck and do not fire until I shift-G again.

Fucking great, all this years making control groups with bombers when there was somrthing already to spread them... And how it is used if you don't mind to explain?
Sure! Count me in!

Subs should be subs instead the current underwater LAB we currently have. Subs should actually be stealthy-need-sonar-in-the-water-to-detect, but the game doesn't feature sonar-dropping aircraft. I'm not really sure if they can be fixed. Stealth really requires active and passive variants of both radar and sonar. Pretty soon we're talking whole-new-game.

I'm confused, quite sure it's already like that.
If possible some kind of armor to avoid surface damage when submerged or something alike. I recall that by engine limitations subs couldn´t change depth on the fly when changing from depth waters to shallow waters but I'll be happy with a workaround.
Well, that is actually a good point, I can only guess such an open and empty map means a high degree of sim-city planning.
I would love to see if high tier players would do interesting stuff in this map (T3 rush? Comebacks and trading bases? T1-T2 blobs of armies here and there?)
Nah, its a little bit stressful because ot jave tons of different options but that is kind of the point of that map

It's not exploit, not to mention that it should stay in game as it's quite good skill expression. The only thing that really suffers from it is atlantis.
Sure, skill expression, like pressing ground fire in a blob of units is something skill intensive...
It makes sense with T3 mobile arty, it makes sense with some T2 PD to increase range but it doesn't make sense to a battleshit to sink subs by shooting at the water. I only play UEF, I do groundfire subs and I quite believe this being a thing is what makes T3 stage a sluggish BB spam fest. Why would I build subs to counter BBs (intuitive) when they can just ground-fire in the moment my subs are still or sailing in a somewhat straight line?
If I recall it right, it was a limitation from the engine that subs can't change depth dynamically and I am not that up for the armor solution because in shallow waters it would make sense to ground-fire them but to be clear, giving armor to subs so they don't get splash damage seems way more reasonable that the current state.
Uuh, sign me in!
