-Turrets will no longer return to initial position after attacking
-Flying Height of Missile Superweapons increased to function better on larger maps
-Mine Damage readdressed
-Decreased Dmg/Health of Scout aircraft, specifically GD scout helis
-Ground Attack Aircraft will no long do much if any dmg to other aircraft to prevent them from nukeing eachother during an initial attack..
-20% health and damage increase for all lvl 2 units
-5% speed increase for lvl 2 units
-10% decrease in cost of lvl 2 factories (both air and land)
-increased radar range on radar ships
-sub dmg reduced
-sub range reduced
there's one thing I don't see on that list that I heard about earlier and was looking forward to: removing the speed-based accuracy penalty (or plain-old reducing innacuracy, I don't remember) on lvl 2 air attack aircraft weapons.Decimator wrote:EXPAND AND EXTERMINATE .153 RELEASED

-fixed bug from .153 that made it impossible for the lvl 1 urc builder to exit the factory
It's at least ten (more IMO), but also benefits from much greater range than L1 artillery (which isn't that great compared to L2 and L3 tanks). The problem is that I just can't see building any of the high-level defensive buildings at all, ever, since saturation artillery renders them already obsolete by the time that the hardpoints could be built.Zoombie wrote:As a test i made ten or so Saturation Artillery.
In-creda-friggen-awseom-belivable. Yes. A new word has been made for the rain of shells those things unleash! ITS INSANE, as many people have said. Those things could litteraly stop anything, if fired in front of them. The saturation is wide enough, fast enough and dose enough damage to make ONE sat art worth five light arts, mabey ten.
It is still possible to have a good hardline defense, if thats what you want. The key is to station sat. artillary around the defensive lines to negate anyone elses attempt at artillary. That way by the time the enemy puts thier sat. artillary within range of yours, youve already been firing away . I have seen it done, not that Id advise it but its something to think about.Corbeau wrote:It's at least ten (more IMO), but also benefits from much greater range than L1 artillery (which isn't that great compared to L2 and L3 tanks).

actually, ideally, if you were urc you would just clock your l3 flamethrower mech, get close and roast him alive.Corbeau wrote:I guess that it *could* be done, but if I had the saturation artillery to do that I'd rather have used 'em to smash my opponent's face in.
I honestly don't mind units being better in general than static defenses, but I do worry a little when there doesn't seem to be any use to a large number of buildings in the game.
As far as I can tell, most static defenses are put up in haste by construction units as an attempt to stabilize a losing situation. It seems like the big stuff is too expensive to do that with, and while they are powerful they have the problems that we've been talking about.
I find this statement to be typically very accurate. However Im not sure how that could be addressed.Corbeau wrote:I guess that it *could* be done, but if I had the saturation artillery to do that I'd rather have used 'em to smash my opponent's face in.
