RE: Feedback on the 1.10 Update

<t> Recon units have too much of a "hide" value while, USSR, units have crap as a spotting value.<br/>
<br/>
USSR does not have enough Arty. My God they are assulting with 10-16 122's sp arty while they should be assulting with 50+ 152's.<br/>
<br/>
T80's and T72's are soooo weak that their #'s ...

RE: God I hate this company

<t> I dug in our bill file and found the info that I needed for the security # to activate the update (1.10).<br/>
<br/>
The game still has some major issues for USSR that have to be addressed.<br/>
<br/>
1. Even with a small area of the front being represented per scenario the USSR’s artillery ...

God I hate this company

<t> Let me qualify this. I bought FPG a year ago and was very excited to see a company produce, by title and description, valid war games only to be let down by insanely idiotic victory conditions.<br/>
<br/>
I remember the first time I played FPG and COMPLETELY destroyed NATO and lost because I ...

RE: WA attacks, and Russia enters the war.

<t> I have recently purchased Flash Point Germany and have been very disapointed with obscure and unrealistic victory conditions that end the game with a defeat. From what I have read, and no I have not played World at War, are there elements that bring a victory to a side that would defy logic ...

RE: PLEASE FIX SUDDEN DEATH

<t> Just removed it from my computer after playing a few more scenarios. The victory conditions are, sudden death, beyond my tolerance. If I smash the enemy I will dispatch a mech unit to take the undefended cattle farms with the time remaining.<br/>
<br/>
Selecting stacked units and non-stacked ...

PLEASE FIX SUDDEN DEATH

<t> The game needs one thing before I would recomend it to anyone. The freakin sudden death is beyond explination - especially if you enjoy playing the USSR.<br/>
<br/>
In case you don't know, the game stops and performs a "who wins" check once a side is down to 20% of his/her combat forces. Its ...

RE: Strategy Thread

<t> It has been my experience that being too decisive yeilds defeat. Take it slow, do not expoit, and DO NOT assault objectives with force. A successful assualt, when I am playing, on the main objective (where all of the enemy usually are) halts the game when they are down to 20% and gives me a loss ...

RE: Problems with Sudden Death trigger

<t> I agree. Could you see the headlines? "USSR Guards Regiment is driven to a stop after destroying too much of Nato while only 2000m away from their objective. LOL <br/>

"I am sorry general...but you have just killed too many of the enemy in the general location of your objective. You ...

RE: Draw?!!!

I think I can live with the "draw" as long as the game does not stop till the end of the time that is given for the battle. Just let me finish my job and you can call it what you want.

RE: Problems with victory conditions

<t> I tend to agree that the victory conditions are a little "kooky" but what really BOTHERS me is that the game stops and denies the impending doom of your enemy. Give me a draw but don't stop the game till the end of the time span.<br/>
<br/>
You can call it a draw all you want - even when my ...

RE: Draw?!!!

<t> I have just read a few post about victory conditions and I have to say that just because SimCan MBT (what the heck is that?) says thats its a draw does not make it right that I should be denied the pleasure of crushing Nato as the a USSR Guards regiment smashes their face.<br/>

Draw?!!!

<t> Hi all - new to the board and game. So far I love it and thank you Matrix for keeping real "war gaming" alive. I moved to the boonies and there is NO interest in gaming groups so I have to use my computer.<br/>

I am going from battle to battle and keep on getting a "draw" in the Soviet ...
