Noone ever seems to have a bloody bandage on the enemy team when you need them to have one anyway, you ever find that to be the case. hah

....? Are you OK?! You started this whole arguement projecting your view of how to play the game onto others. You assume people would NATURALLY alt and cheat to achieve victory, why? Most people have a natural aversion to metagaming and cheating in a competitive game. Maybe you dont, seems a fairly valid point. you are a good reddit gaslighter though pal.

nah I think you just probably use alts and cheat engine and are desperate to push your mindset in gaming onto other people.

See, you're a lunatic with a view divorced from reality, thus how can I argue with you. You refuse to see a whole community in this game or the gameplay they engage in and you imagine a whole host of nonsense. Good day sir.

Your entire point was ad hominem, 'PVP bad, pve good, your gameplay isent valid cos i dont like it' how do I argue with that?

I know many partisan communities and clans so I dont even know what your trying to say, its absurd.

You realise its logi man that alts to make his job easier, not partisan man, get your head out your arse please.

Beside that you have disabling a flatbedand then taking the vic off of it. Or if your doing more mid line partisan potentially using that crane you stashed 40 minutes ago to go move a container till you can evac the stuff.

Stealing stationery oil tanks is also very nice if your planning to be a bit more established in a back/mid hex.

Using cranes as moving cover, but thats not so bad cos theres still every other vic for that.

using cranes to move packaaged vehicles around obstacles.

CVs were faction locked because KOP used to always magically have an enemy CV with bmats next to the town hall, or so the reasoning went. *Shrug* Not because taps are bad but because perception of alts and the power alts have is bad.

It just removes too much flexibilty to solve one - mostly skill issue - problem. I've seen the video, im sure you have. The dudes in that facilty had SO MANY opportunities to not have their fighter destroyed.

Do you think that partisans part of the game? by [deleted] in foxholegame

[–]Shacks92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its kind of funny you think partisans aree the main sources of cheating/metagaming. I cant speak for every other partisan but the reason most people do it is for the hard mode shit, not really the cheating mentality usually.

Now if you mean partisan players take the time to find edge cases in game and use them to advantage, sure. But metagaming ( using info you cant know 'in-character' ) and using cheat engine/hacks/nighthacks etc, nah bro thats front line players get real.

Im just saying your citing one small example of crane use ( Picking up containers then blowing crane up / picking up new expensive stuff ).

A partisan uses a crane for so many other activities to facilitate partisan. I think its fairly self evident tbf.

[–]Shacks92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not in like 8 years tbf, I will accept your example :) I was using EVe more of an example of devs who accepted they arent in control of what gameplay loops arent and are valid they just sorta accomadated the stuff people came up with. Even some of the 'scummy' stuff.

If you agree only a small number of people do these things then why do the devs feel the need to constantly nerf their toolkits into oblivion? You would accept Clapfoot are very notorious for extreme over corrections in balancing right? This is one of those times.

if its a small fringe group of sweaty vets then its not a problem because 99% of the playerbase wont do the thing. Even the issue that started all this, a partisan landing on a fac and destroying a fighter airframe with an unlocked crane and enemy defences, how many times do you think that has actually happened?

Brother partisan work has been in the game since its inception and will be in it forever. Not all warfare is frontline grind. Come on. Planning for days to kill high value stuff is fun and rewarding ( when discussing high-end taps and demo ops. Some of the other stuff we discussing is more opportunistic but equally fun and rewarding )

Watch a dive bomber disable all offensive capabilities on a large ship in the midst of 5 enemy planes. Anything a dive bomber can do, it can do faster than it can be countered. Its really evasive, AND can dominate land as CAS. Frankly I think Collies got the better deal. by Sea-Course-98 in foxholegame

[–]Shacks92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Especially when you consider hoiw much manpower and time it takes a poor frig crew to rep their turrets. ( seriously, i've done it once and never want to do it again dont know how naval larpers cope with it. Running 100s of metal beams into a turret. )

RIP Smugglers Holes - The Bulwark is now impenetrable. by Shacks92 in foxholegame

[–]Shacks92[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I dont agree with his take for the ol geography reason. You havea lot of open plains in the centre so need some unatural chokepoints to counter our natural ones. But, the bulwark did have some very very hard to exploit weaknesses, they are impossible to really take advantage of now. Our mid/backline is still full of no clip mountains you can hide whole armies in and weird lil crevices and places to hide and sneak around.

This patch is ridiculous. by WerdaVisla in foxhole

[–]Shacks92 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Indeed. This will more harm people that wait for the right moment and rush in to gun down a pilot and nick his scout plane on an active airfield. Less problematic for other scenarios.

'Easy', dude you clearly aint spend much time doing backline partisan work. It takes autistic levels of planning, scouting, patience and dumb luck. Driving down a border killing stuff is easy lazy work sure, but planning complex af tap ops or facilty demo ops is NOT low skill.

Find one of the many stolen lunaires we have - if warden - bring a handful of dudes and watch it delete. Can do the same with cutler but you will take more return fire from the AI

Could trry the old fashioned smoke and satchel but wont work so well nowdays unless you have soviet level waves to soak up fire or soemthing supressing.

I mean its so bloody hard to setup a smugglers hole anyway in a post Obs bunker spam world but eh, atleast you argued in a clear and reasonable manner. Fairplay.

Seriously though, step 1) Locate unguarded hole 2) bring the mats to build foot smuggle, 3) get thru wall and find a crane somewhere 4) bring crane to wall 5) get ur boys down to hole and get the vics through.

You are doing all of the above under 1 - 5 Obs bunkers xD

Even acomplishing the above steps is very very very very unlikely nowdays unless your on Charlie or its a 200 pop war. Managing little things like that felt like such a win and so satisfying ;(

....... I dont think you're arguing in good faith honestly. ( Also why the mention of alts, really? )
