>>1767712
How do I improve? I keep getting crapped on. I have the early capture game and build order more or less down since its pretty easy. But the enemy always has much better movement and their units are where they need to be.
Also I keep trying to make APCs work, should I give up on them.
Do I need to watch these lame youtubers explain matches?
>>
>>1770711
Not the same anon but I have some advice. There's far too much to cover in one post but if you're having trouble with movement/positioning you need to identify key areas of interest. Each map is different but try to identify contested properties and positions that will give you a tactical advantage. In some maps if you get a bunch of your units in the centre of the map you can put pressure on multiple places and front shift very easily while also blocking the enemy from doing so. I'd recomend watching some higher level Youtubers. People like Elagatua have some good tips on how to play at higher levels. If you're trying to use transports I'd say go with T-Copters if you can. Building an APC leaves you with 1 less ground unit. Even if it's only an infantry it can make quite a difference, especially early on. Transports should be built on larger maps and maps with lots of rivers/mountains that split the map up. I don't use transports a whole lot in standard because the enemy can see I'm building them, they can go all in with tank rushes and then I'm down on money because I built a transport. In fog they're fine and in high funds they are great as you want as many properties as fast as possible.

Feels like they just did a 1 to 1 copy of the sprites without adding anything else to them, not even any texture or extra detail to them.

They aren't. Wargroove 1 succeeded mildly because people wanted more advanced wars, then the advance wars reboot came out, and people either played that instead or found out about AWBW during the peak of people being upset about the online. Thus, Wargroove 2 flopped.

WayForward is an amazing studio but that little to no experience doing a remake let alone a strategy one.

Nintendo wanted everything to be cute and cuddly again to get a whole new generation into Advance Wars but failed to realise it would never stick with gen alpha.

And it's not just difference in taste, back then most of us had just one console with a couple few games we were gifted so we just went along with whatever.
A turn based grid tactical game is always an harder sell.

So they should have just catered to the older fanbase with a new title with new mechanics. And it's not like they couldn't still have newer and younger players in mind.

However:
>shit art style
>shit ost
>shit sfx
>souless 3D instead of 2D sprites

Pretty sure Nintendo holds the IP rights, and lord knows they respond to any minor flop by chucking the entire fucking thing into the dumpster, so just give up on ever seeing Advance Wars again.

I never actually checked did Wargroove 2 actually bother to give anyone D2Ds? That was one thing in 1 that really bothered me was just how most CO's played the same outside of planning or executing on their CO power and if said CO power happened, likewise the fact every CO had the exact same combat stats, its like they give themselves a framework to create a group of interesting and diverse characters to play as designed just the CO powers and then ran out of steam and didn't bother to finish it. Then again this is chuckle fish I wouldn't put it past them to just have done that.

I was skeptical about the tinywars CO rebalances at first, but outside of a couple of outliers the whole cast is pretty balanced within a single tier now. Some are way better on certain maps but that's where the ban system comes in.

When I saw that AWBW had updated some COs I was hopeful they were going to move in the same direction, imagine my disappointment when I find out the only fix they made was cart accuracy autism.

It's a shame that new Wars World project died, AWBW is really showing its age now and their insistence on cart accurate COs will doom half the roster to irrelevancy.

Watch nobody use Kindle´s SCOP anyways, I only encounter COP spammers with her.
>>
>>1821742
this is only because of the tiering in awbw. In T3 is mostly Rachel simps and Drake niggers whose hidden power it is to deny their opponent power charge by burning unit value without getting compensated appropriately with charge.
I used HS to great success in rare cases either when Maxie dropped a tier or where it seemed viable to pick Kindle over a T2 in a T2 matchup and ending up playing against either Maxie or Eagle.

The strat is to gain with your superior d2d an early advantage, to be the first to reach the CO power and pop it and after they make a huge push with their SCOP you get full charge for a HS again and attack straight into their power without taking too much retaliation.

And, yes, I know. These cases are rare, but still fun to do it when they come along.
>>
Kindle got a T2-STD
>>
speaking of Kindle in std, humita who apparently is in contact with people running the site and those who serve as advisors regarding CO rating and stuff said that they consider moving her in fog up a tier as well.

I think I only played Kindle in fog once but I gotta tell you the paranoia your experiencing is unreal. Constanly little browls of tank vs tank engagements and your left with tons of units with 4 to 7 hp and you don't know if it's safe withdraw them back to your cities to repair them or if it will punish you even more. Combining also hurts way more in fog then it does in standard because you lose a lot of information.

Kindle in fog is kinda weird in the sense that she feels way weaker than in std when you play her while she also feels way stronger when your opponent play her.

Anyone who isn't stupid knows what the changes of Rachel are?
Some claim that the "infantry" missile now also targets other units, only that infantry is weighted higher. This seems like bullshit because even if infantry is weighted double or quadrouple it would still count less than a tank. Thus it would just end up being a second "most HP damage dealt" missile.
Others claim that the only change is that prior to it the infantry missile only looked for the most infatnry regardless of what HP they had. Means that a group of like 6 1HP infs would always distract the missile despite they being already at .1HP after the 4th missile hit an thus the missile havin no effect.

The first is retarded, because like I said, it would basically become a second missile that targets the most value. This would mean a significant boost of Rachel's SCOP and I doubt she could remain in the same tier as neutered Drake.

The second would make sense, doesn't really match the description and what all the "experts" claim. Also, are caping infantry still rated twice? Or were they ever in first place?

And also how did they work in the original cartrige game? I was too young for a really scientifc research when the game came out-

If I understand correctly the infantry missile now works like the HP missile except infantry HP counts double. Unit value isn't taken into account.

Look, that picture and your comment are absolutely based and correct. But it strikes me as perhaps slightly genuinely autistic.

Did you vote for the new army already?

Things that I liked:

>Silver Claw (Dinosaurs themed)
>Sapphire Fjord (Valkyries)
probably my favourite
>Abyssal Hive (Alien theme)
>Copper Binaries (Droids)
like that those robots aren't some Optimus Prime rip offs but actually some 60s scifi movie design
>Titanium Zenith (Robots)
I like the general design but I consider it highly problematic colour design wise. The units give barely away what colour they are.

Is there any hope for games in the genre that aren't Nintendo? Or are they doomed to fail as clones, like non-Pokemon monster catchers?
I hope Warside is good.
>>
>>1839291
Im content with the online sims
I hope warside doesnt have trooncrap like wargroove, thats the problem with indies these days, lots of degens with their ugly degen art.

Was it unironically better when the game wasn't out and there was still hype that kept hopes alive then the post-release it's over-mentality we are facing now?
>>
>>1843508
Not really, I knew that the game was going to be shit from the art style alone.

My post was actually going in a different direction: we all knew it was going to suck. But before it was out there was the hope that whatever gets released will at least appeal to the zoomdom and good sales would trigger a new follow up to the series.

So what went wrong with Wargroove anyways?
>>
>>1731830
Nah, those animations are the ONLY part of the game that doesn't look like complete dogshit. The commander's portraits are knock-off tier Live2D garbage and the units/buildings look just as bad.

My hot takes:
1. Wargroove did nothing special, people only gave it a chance because they were starved for AW.
2. Ridiculous Tumblr-nose epidemic. Every character in-game had a shitty looking red nose to the point that even normalfags were noticing and laughing at it.
3. The in-game art wasn't even good, their outside-of-game art was actually good but they translated it incredibly poorly. See pic for a comparison.
4. Wargroove 2 flopped because no-one wanted a sequel but they made one anyway.
>>
>>1856798
Those arent hot takes those are reasonable takes.
The game was shit period.

The new mafia army is terrible the units are so black you cant see shit

Overanimated sprites and realistic co faces that clash with the artstyle
>>
>>1731341
They delayed it because of something from real life, so I told them to go fuck themselves. I'll play Rastan or Pac-Man, thanks very much.

>>1856798
Freezing cold takes desu. People will bite on nostalgia driven cash grab games, but they won't have sticking power unless they're good games in their own right

>>1860202
Units look cute, gameplay looks like it MIGHT not suck. Characters look fuck ugly for some reason

Stop trying to make Advance Wars clones and make your own game inspired by AW + others. There's no reason to play these over AWBW or replaying the cart games

What do you think of the new AWBW armies?
>>
>>1868647
Slimes are good, aliens are ok, noir are yet another black faction whose non-infantry units will clash with Black Hole and Gray Sky to create a mess nobody can understand
>>
>>1752797
Grimm and it's not even close
>>
>>1868647
Slimes are ok. I don't like noir because the details on black sprites look too indistinct. Aliens seem cool from that image, haven't seen them in the game yet.

Tried the demo the AI is amazingly easy all you have to do to win is build tanks.

What would you prefer it look like? IMO the graphics and art style seemed perfectly fine for a handheld game when it came out.
>>
>>1877342
are you talking about the original or the remake?
those people are talking about the remake and the remake artstyle objectively sucks, the only redeeming feature is the CO portraits but even then those are a hit and miss
WayForward was the wrong company to let handle Advance Wars

Anyone got any ideas for the last AWBW army contest?

I've never played AW before outside of in a car ride with a friend and Days of Ruin's aesthetic/art appeals to me. Is it good or do people just shit on it cause the art style was different?
>>
>>1879140
People who dislike DoR only do so because it's CO system is different, not worse just different, instead of having a global effect like in SFW/AW/AW2/AWDS it's instead tied to a radius around a normal unit you designate while it's still on the production building. That plus unit levels affecting their combat capabilities plus questionable design of some CO's changes the game enough for it to spook fans of previous fames into thinking "game bad because different"
>>
>>1879223
Whoops misquote, meant for >>1879164 instead

>>1868647
I hate silver claw and I hate anyone who voted for it
We could have had forest gnomes, wizards, Goblinds, but no
These shitheels picked the ancient rats, that have no place in war and will never advance

This game would be fun if every game wasn't decided by who resigned or timed out and when

Pathetic AI, no anti-vehicle infantry and no per faction unit visuals, what were they thinking? Down to the unit movement specifics, almost everything is the exact same thing as AW, and what's different about it is just worse than AW

Colin and Drake got a huge buff in the reboot camp. Other than that probably GBA AW2 Jess has the best theme

so in case anyone's interested: in 5 hours there will be a stream casting live games on AWBW with VoA commentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IaPkljqvOHg
