Once dropship aircraft get added I can see that big platform on the back of the harvester being used to evacuate harvester crews if things get a bit too hairy. Or they can be used to fly in troops for a crazy strategy where the harvester is going to be used as a heavily armoured assault vehicle
You can actually ride many of the human vehicles. I was riding on top of my friends railgun tank with a heavy trooper and giving him additional fire. Also, I drove a rocket launcher truck and I had 2 marksmans on the sides, and as long as I didn't swing the rockets around, they would be able to sit securely on the vehicle.
Heavy quad is a great early game for this tactic. It's an actual truck that can hold troops in its truck bed. As long as the vehicle doesn't flip, you're good.
i would love to see more Vehicles like the harvester. Big units you can pack troops onto, who maybe even position themselves on cetain points on it to defend. Basically a moving Bunker
love the units but would love to see more commander stuff, like if there is any new commands coming, like the ability to tell units to not fire till told to or something, for more sneakier operations, also aliens are my fav and cant wait to see the queen in game!
I mean human cost more and harder to grind compare to alien i think considering alien are tankier and even more dmg to human especially the scorpion that to ton dmg to buggy
The quad is just a light transport no need for the other light transport (terrible redundancy) with no armourment, the heavy transport does have a purpose though.
You forgot to mention the Harvester's harvester. Ive killed multiple tanks using the harvester. Nearly impossible if the driver knows the danger, but if not, i drop that roller on them and they disappear almost instantly.
Agreed! It just looks and feels… wrong. What’s wrong with tracked vehicles?? Even modern/near future vehicles would look amazing on this map. They took it too far and it looks goofy
dang for a small channel to get 800 subs in 3 weeks, mighty impressive. u gonna be my go to guy for this game when i get it 100% lookin forward to getting good info on other games. btw u should 100 % look at home world deserts of karak and just the wider home world games :)
heavy quad with a squad of rockets in the rear could do some serious damage too bases if you can sneak around the back. Reminds me of rocket apc rushes from C&C Renegade/X.
So you can ride vehicles as a soldier (basically a player controllable asset), and not get thrown off due to physics... So I'm going to assume the same is true with other Player Controllable Assets.. like other vehicles? So hear me out.. We make an extra Harvester and pack as many infantry on the gantries and cab roof as we can... And then we land a hover tank on the Harvester's Landing Pad via a nearby ridge/cliff... and go into Lockdown/Siege Mode... We now have a 100000HP vehicle bristling with small arms and a medium sized 13000HP tank as a "turret"... (or the Railgun..) InB4 someone suggests the Siege Tank or any other lighter vehicles; Siege Tank looks too big/heavy (may flip Harvester) and everything else looks too lightweight to make it worthwhile... The Harvester is slow - easy to get picked off, so a decent HP pool/decently large calibre weapons would go well. If you put a light vehicle up there you may as well just put more bodies with small arms up there...
Hopefully they will add more human factions soon, some using ‘old school’ (ie modern day) vehicles and ballistic weapons. Oh and no stupid magic hovering vehicles that don’t actually fly.
Could you say or just put a pick of the key in the top corner how to do the special "ability" like the turret mode on hover vehicles and the jump ( I would guess space) , boost and so on. I think loot of people would like that Love the video thx
The siege mode of the tanks is really good, since enemies can't see the blue and red of the boosters. Also, it turns off the engines making then silent
I do hope that we get some new units, buildings and defences. But all in all I’m loving this game. I do have one ☝️ question: once you setup a server for multiplayer does it souly belong to you the host and able to be reused? I ask as I’m hoping to make one soon for myself and my buddies.
Your server Is a single instance, soo if you were to leave, it will delete itself when you do so, however you can host at any point to play with your friends :)
game look quite fun but for real all theses hovering stuff make me not wanting to play it xD if only the dev could have took inspiration at the tesla canon tank From UT2004 'glacier assault mission' but with the bulky style that his siege tank have. ( 4 fat armored tracks with heavy plates and das big energy canon)
All the other vehicles look so good, where the hell did he get the idea of floating vehicles from?! 🤣 Get rid of the hover vehicles permanently and I’m sold
Its a funtion of the Freecam/Spectator view, the only way you gain access is using the cheat console, its how i spawn all the units in also! if you want to play around with the console its the ` Key, then type Cheats to activate the cheat commands
they will be different from each other in the future, Centauri are going to be more primitive from Sol, Tracked vehicles, older looking weapons ect, wont effect balance, Sol will be advanced tech, like what we see now, Hover tanks, plasma guns ect
