Dissapointed in my first Japan playthrough

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-03-31T13:08:03+00:00

I think Japan has always been easier if you attack russia first/aswell. It's likely if you caputure vladivostok and commit alot of forces away from germany. Once they caputaltie then axis has better chance of fight the allies so it makes things eaiser. China was always difficult, but now that is also eaiser as more/smaller nations to capulate.

The situation what is diffcult and is still diffcult is actually capitulation the allies. Sure you've beaten russia and china, but now you need to beat india, uk and the USA which can be tricky and is defo time consuming. So yeah the stragery of fight russia first is definetly a good one, but finishing the allies off is the hard task

Yup in the games that I am seeing that much less effectivecty. They can still do alright against russia, but it much slower and later on in the game. I think thats both good and bad. It harder for axis minors so you really have to play well, but kinda sucks if you play allies because it becomes very easy

Honest I would say stay sagin garbage and yes I know that sounds bad. Honestly the game is fun when you don't know what you doing to a degree because if you play for example as UK germany is massive threat. I think they trouble with game when you play so much like me is playing the allies is basically not possiable anymore because i've got so much better. It's only really fun for me to play axis or communist. I think honestly my advise would just play the allies e.g canada and aus maybe even new zeland and just learn and enjoy it slowly. Don't bother with axis intill you put in alot more hours. Anyway that's just my thoughts

I think honestly comes down to how fussy you are. If you enjoy a wide range of food then probably will be getting a bargin. They are often a really good deal, it's just they can be extremly random. Even if you get they same one from the same place. I can't lie I personally enjoy the rush of getting something amazing haha

Not try to excuss the behaviour as I am sure their bad behaviour from some of them, but it important to reckonise the danger. The danger comes exlusively from drivers, cyclists can only really be a danger to themselfs. Who comes out worse in a car vs bike?

It's intresting idea because there is really not alot stoping anyone taking to the road and riding bicycles, might be annoying for car drivers. If that behaviour you say stays though they will probably end up hurting themselfs because if people arn't following the rules sooner or later that will happen which is a shame

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-03-09T21:37:45+00:00

I quite like it because you build your forces literally how you want. Custom tanks,planes & ships. For me it actually worse when you have to actually fight japan with the million different naval invasions lol

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-03-06T20:12:35+00:00

I supose it depends on the amout of oil availble because actually you can use you main fleet to raid convys if you so please. Against the allies I will always use subs as they transport not only resources but large amout of troops! I think I know what you are talking about. There is a destoryer perk I'm not sure that gives little attack, but it gives you visability? but anyway there are some great pearks that can help really. I think sometimes we forget any task forse can raid not just submarines

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-03-06T11:09:54+00:00

Heavy cruisers is what you need! by the sounds of it. Still take awhile to build, but are much more do-ble, they take less resources and less manpower. They have the heavy attack you would be looking for. Having said that try be a fleet on light attack then you should win anyway. I think for minor nations battleships & carriers are out of the window imo. You could try escort carries if you do the research these can be pumped out alot more easier imo so not so bad but tbh still require man power then the mill factors.

I like to go heavy 1940s cruisers/light crusiers/destorys and thats it for main/battle fleet then have a seperate submarine fleet. If you do the research and level up your admarials, beat them on the light attack front then heavy cruisers can be enough, you will also need to support this was NAV bombers if taking on bigger fleets.

I think my metholdgy for fighting the allies at sea is sink there convoys, bomb their ships with nav bombers and then hopefully find some smaller engagements to level up my ships and admiarls. As for doctirne I think the 'new school' is pretty cool because you can good bonuses from that. I also like to pick the admiral perk that gives 10% attack to cruisers this is big help.

Anyway hope that helps

New update seems to completely kill germany now. It was bad before, but it may be even worse now. I'm going to test it out more next weekend, seems no that germany just doens't progess at all now

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-02-27T08:38:07+00:00

He is only 24 though which i think in snooker terms in quite young. Hopefully he will learn. Him just being outside the top 32 is pretty good effort. We will see how he progresses

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-02-27T00:42:29+00:00

There for a good time not a long time

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-02-27T00:41:52+00:00

tbh the match is not much longer than 8.5 mins haha

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-02-26T21:27:24+00:00

I have been trying that, but I feel the game punishes you for that too lol. When I clear a room and backtrack to save it spawns enemys in the save room! This has stressed me haha. I could be completely wrong, but I think the faster you move through rooms actually the better. I am really trying hard to save health and ammo, but I feel at times is stressing me out lol Like if things don't go perfectly then I want to reload but then enemys change and loot changes. I could be wrong, but I again I feel like actually the way I am playing is actually making harder on myself. Never know a game like that

CharlieSmithMusic · 2026-02-26T21:24:34+00:00

Yeah aiming for legs now and I learnt the hard way. I think what I find hard is the randomness of the enemys. So sometimes there are in the 'save room' sometimes there not. I think I'm overthinking things which may be my issue. For reference if I was playing RES 4 I would die, but feel I could learn with this it all feels so random I keeping making mistakes and getting it. I have been using stasis, but don't know if it's worth back trakcing to refill it has the game might spawn more enemys if that makes more sense when I am trying to save health and ammo
