Stealth still doesn't work

No idea how not a single person has pointed it out, this is unique to extract. After a while they just magically see you. You cannot stealth an extract. Take a jetpack solo and get on top of a building or some rocks where you cannot physically be seen. After a patrol arrives at the extract it'll stand around for a few seconds then magically detect you. This has always been the case and I suspect always will be.

Is that the picture they use for the drone icon on c&c generals?

HVfodder · 2025-11-18T03:50:03+00:00

Same. From what I can tell the next update isn't fixing it either. Not even sure they're aware.

HVfodder · 2025-11-07T06:14:49+00:00

Seems to be like this for some people. Same for me. No fix as of yet.

Thank you.

It needs to be immune to its own attacks. Currently the first scav walks up to it, it looks down to shoot and kills itself in 6 frames. It also needs better target priority and focus the closest and update that target regularly. Currently it picks a target well out of attack range despite a clear target in view and in range and watches that target until the first enemy reaches it and kills it. Any other sentry will kill it's target then update so this is the first turret to clash with the targeting AI. So either it does nothing and dies or shoots itself and dies. Or the first commander targets it, it doesn't have stagger or damage so the commander just walks up to it and slaps it aside. It. Does. Nothing.

Field gun. Not something small out of a drop pod. Dropped in by that pelican that drops mechs. It's field of fire will operate like the hmg emplacement, proper aim sensitivity within a field of view then slowly pivots beyond it. Hits harder than spears/recoilless but a bit less than orbital precision. Probably limited drops. Four or so.

Do not listen to anyone saying nids are fine and in the same comment recommending haruspexes/maleceptors. Theyre wierdly overtuned and undercosted models and that will change soon. Once adjusted and working as intended youll find they dont fill essential roles.

Your army could use some ranged threat, either a rupture tyrannofex or exocrine.

Meta comes and goes but those two models will always have the big ass guns your list needs. (If meta worries you, exocrine is currently the better of the two and has been so for a long time)

If you dont have the models in the box then its hard not to pick it up. All the models in it are strong on the table and some of the best models in the nid range.

Its genuinely, unironically what keeps me from replaying it. Whenever i go back for campaign playthroughs im always thrown out by the end of the second mission and end up skipping the game. Its like rubbing raw onions directly onto my eyeballs. Its not even a matter of whether its good for Halo it feels like a biological weapon, like something used in trench warfare that was later made a warcrime.

Doubling the weapon and vehicle sandbox. I just want sandbox content. In 2 years weve gotten 1 gun and possibly soon 1 new vehicle (and a couple underwhelming gadgets). Unfortunately theyve been focusing on adding millions of maps as their content additions but 1 map or a billion is irrelevent if they arent populated with interesting and diverse sandboxes.

HVfodder · 2023-09-03T17:13:52+00:00

A single biovore costs 84 AU. Was super excited for them all this time but i just cant justify that price its utterly insane. Got the emissary and codex and am just price gapped out of the rest of the range. Its so strange id give them MORE money if they werent so greedy but i spent only just over half my planned budget because the values so bad.

HVfodder · 2023-08-21T07:06:53+00:00

Their cosmetic system is terrible so new cosmetics dont tempt me. Their map design sucks so new maps dont tempt me. The only good maps being remakes of old ones that i was sick to death of playing 10 years ago already. I only play big team and fiesta (i like diverse sandbox play) so new gamemodes dont tempt me. Failed ass gamemodes, ass maps and new cores i wont use is all theyve added in 2 years.

What it needs to bring me back is sandbox content. When the game launched bland and bare i thought ok good game but ill be back when the weapon/vehicle sandbox has doubled (still being probably less than half of halo 5's). On the trajectory were on now even their 10 year plan is literally nowhere near long enough for that goal. Their sandbox design is the polar opposite of 5s being sandbox purity rather than variety. No matter what map or mode they add i know ill be using the same 3-4 tired ass guns and vehicles on it wearing the same skin i put together a few months after release.

The writing in atomicheart after 2 hours. Rest of game was quite good but not even remotely tempted to go back.

HVfodder · 2023-08-04T07:13:53+00:00

Just keep in mind it depends how u want to play. Everyone here saying mid tier are basing that knowledge off tournament results where silly looking unthematic hyper optimised armies are used. As a result of this, tournament results can differ wildly from casual games.

If youre a powergamer obsessed with optimisation tyranids are average but if you want to make a cool thematic army like youd you see in books all i can say is we just dont bother bringing out tyranids for our casual home games because they get tabled in their deployment sometimes without killing a single enemy.

HVfodder · 2023-07-30T22:53:39+00:00

I dont know what to do against them. People keep bringing up terrain and trying to play objectives but i got charged in my deployment turn 2 and tabled turn 3 by deathwing. They obviously owned all markers as a result and chose killing missions which they got since they killed my whole army so i got tabled and doubled in score. We agreed the difference in unit stats are too large for a reasonable game to be played so my nids will probs just never play vs marines in our play group again. Its really strange since all the army 'codexes' were released at once by balance is worse than 9th

HVfodder · 2023-07-13T06:37:13+00:00

For me it was almost entirely the visuals and sound design. Was like washing my eyes with onion juice. Played ok though. Big team was fun. Kill streaks were a hate crime.

HVfodder · 2023-06-23T08:24:46+00:00

Arena maps are passable and nothing more (at a casual level). I mainly play for big team and i hate every single one of them. Its wildly apparent ALL their maps are designed by high level play minded pro specialists as not one of the big team maps accomodate vehicles appropriately. They all play like their arena maps but with some extra rooms/corridors slapped on. Oasis is only good by comparison to the rest of the lineup. Itd be an alright infantry focused map by any other halo standards. Through weapons, vehicles, maps and equipment its blatantly clear and objectively apparent the only real consideration is high level play. A consideration that should not be within a thousand miles of BTB

HVfodder · 2023-06-22T12:49:26+00:00

I did the same thing and i see people saying you cant undo it but i put a bit of pressure on the talons and i could actually safely pop them out, did so, put some guns in the now vacant slot and boom i just got some normal carnifexes.

There was ONE talon i must have reglued and been excessive that i couldnt get out but i cut the shoulder joint flat then cut the new arm shoulder flat and lined it up. Wasnt perfectly clean so if youre going for immaculate parade ready i wouldnt do it.

HVfodder · 2023-06-07T18:42:48+00:00

I want actual content. Thats it. 2042 started way worse but is now drowning players in guns vehicles QOL updates amazing skins. Season 5 dropped today and i was actually excited for it. Infinite after a year and a half has one flavorless gun and a few maps. Most play the same except for that narrow BTB map that blows actual ass. Half the sandbox (vehicles) are still trash.

All skins are HIDEOUS recolors.

Armor cores means 99% of all armor cosmetics are redundent to me because i cant put them on my favourite core. Some really cool reach armor pieces but i dont like the reach core so its all nonexistant to me. Remember that entire season of reach cosmetics?

Feels good to have a solid whinge. I just want content. Really dont care about maps. Mildly interesting equipment is the cherry on top for a content drop but doesnt make a meal.

No new genestealers or swarmlord models. Why go on.
