I'm having fun with hard and medium ai, but I was wondering what kind of "upgrades" the ai gets when you raise the difficulty level.
Does it fight "smarter" or does it get the usual "cheats" to make the game harder?
Hello,
Just wondering if anyone has had this issue? Upon launching a skirmish the game stutters/audo crackles every few seconds. I've fiddled with a few settings, but the issue persists. Has anyone encountered this before?
Can artillery guns be hidden in green forest without problems? I don't think it affects reload speed or precision, but better safe than sorry.
I know the game is slowly winding down but I just got it recently and I am having a blast. I watched a lot of game commentaries on YouTube and learnt a lot before I even bought the game. At the moment I can beat the enemy AI on very hard difficulty with certain Axis divisions and I think I have a good grasp of the basic functionality of the game.
Issue is I know how to beat the Ai. On very hard difficulty it just spams out a lot of tanks and stuff at you so I rely a lot on super heavy units like Jagdpanthers and King tigers or Heavy units like Panthers to tank shots and kill them off. While this maybe effective against AI, I know human players are smart enough to avoid my heavy units and bomb them with artillery and air. Of course I know how to use counter battery and AA but I am sure a human player will just avoid my heavy units and attack somewhere else.
I can beat the AI with any division on hard though. My micro is good enough even with a weakish division. But on very hard I need divisions with lots of heavy units to succeed. Is this skill level enough for multiplayer play? Or should I keep practicing till I can beat the very hard AI with any division?
I have been looking into playing Steel Division 2 and other WW2 strategy games that are similar to the Total War franchise most of them seem to focus on one part of the war rather than multiple parts. For example, Steel Division 2 is mainly set around the late 1944 - 45 time period which is fine, it is a great period in the war, however it doesn't include other periods which i personally find equally as interesting. I understand that this is due to a valid reason as it is very hard to balance the force compositions for the earlier war.
So basically to sum it up: I am looking for a WW2 game similar to Steel Division 2 and the total war games, but allows you to use divisions, units, and battles from across the whole span of the war. Any recommendations are welcomed, thanks!
I'm still fighting skirmishes with Easy AI and most of my problems come from the sheer number of field and at guns that fills every nook and cranny of the maps, going mostly unnoticed.
I've been using scout units in good positions but even when I'm able to spot them, it seems there is no efficient way to deal with them. I've tried using lots of artillery guns and pounding their positions but even if they are spotted and/or in open field it seems prohibitively hard to kill them with artillery. If they are inside cover forget about it.
How to deal with them efficiently?
