This is something I've tried to rectify in Fjords, and I believe I've succeeded. It needs tweaking over time, as anything would, but it's laying the foundation for the Tiberium Garden project's gameplay standards.
I don't know about anyone else here, but I enjoy seeing Transport Helicopters make it to a base without being shredded by some gigantic cannon in less than five seconds. I like seeing rockets destroy Apaches, Orcas, and Transports. I like seeing Recon Bikes stave off Orcas, and MRLS holding Apaches at bay. I like watching Mammoth Tanks fire missiles at Apaches that don't manage to stay on top of them. I like seeing Stealth Tanks actually hit Orcas reliably.
I like seeing snipers focus entirely on light vehicles like Humm-vees, Recon Bikes, and Buggies. I like not having to worry about my Orca being destroyed in three seconds because someone across the map can kill me with hit-scan weapons without any fear of me coming close to them. I like that Gunner and Rocket Soldiers are useful in more than niche situations. I like seeing SAM Sites tear up aircraft, and I enjoy watching the AGT being focused on missiles while Guard Towers fire guns.
Maybe my problem is that I enjoy C&C, not this Unreal-styled version of C&C that we call Renegade.

I think I see a pattern.

So what exactly is the problem with using "I" when you're expressing an opinion instead of factual matter??

I like the alternative gameplay dynamic on Fjords, especially as far as aircraft go. but the stock version on flying maps is actually very balanced and a skilful endeavour (so long as you remove the point bug and have infinite infantry ammo); perhaps it takes some experience of competitive play to see that for what it is.

Just because something yields evidence towards one end doesn't justify the entire thing in question (this is called anecdotal evidence... in this case, the statistical average of GDI wins vs Nod wins).
Furthermore, if the alternate idea being presented results in roughly the same numbers that the cherry picked "evidence" does- and more- why on Earth is it bad to change it?
TL;DR: ACK's changes are actually a good thing and is a step in the right direction for Renegade, and I'd love to see more maps that use his balancing methods (Remade fanmaps using his stats and such would be wonderful).
Although, I'd like to see the numbers of GDI wins vs Nod wins on Fjord. Even though it won't mean much if it's a bit imbalanced (it's one mod map system that's still in progress vs an entire game that is apparently "super balanced"), it'd still be nice to see.

FjordsTS feels really balanced. The only thing that's unbalanced and that Aircraftkiller already addressed is Orca rushes.
I made a modified C&C_Snow map with some of the changes I wanted to test out for st0rm. It includes FjordsTS' models (with ACK's permission), but I did nerf the Flame Tank, Mammoth Tank and MRLS a bit because they're really nasty on FjordsTS, still are on the modified map. St0rm still needs to put the map in their rotation, although they did put an earlier version with only Arty splash and screenshake reduced in their rotation.

All of the arguments I've ever seen against the changes I've developed always center around "Havoc must destroy anything he can see."
It makes me question the lack of coherent thought involved.
|
but that would mean you'd have to choose a character based on what you want to accomplish instead of being a massive faggot
are you suggesting we, the players of Renegade, change our faggy ways?

i haven't actually seen anyone use sakuras/havocs effectively on fjords..it's like the APB sniper. Might as well remove them.

if the map had infinite infantry ammo, then rocket soldiers/gunners would be well worth using, plus rav/PIC/etc as units to hold the field. in which case, snipers would be much more useful as a counter to them.

it was the friendliest word i could think of after all ur talk about shitty balance and this should have been how ren was released.
personally i dont think ur map is balanced at all and it takes away from indivdual skill, but hey i like any map that has recon bikes and enough space to get them to max speed.

Stock Renegade levels make it hard for good tank battles because it's a blank open space with bases so close together it's like "why bother having vehicles?".
