The Tiger and his rewards :D
« on: May 31, 2011, 03:14:25 PM »
hi folks

i was thinking about the new tiger ace and tested him a few times, but i think the tiger ace doesn´t match with terror.

i think it would besser work if the devs would change the Tiger I reward skin (plz its a sensless reward so i think you can change it^^) for blitz with this tiger ace. the tiger ace gets no vet and is still a call in once in a game but therefore a bit faster than the normal tiger or you van take the normal tiger and call in again and again and... you know what i mean^^

and as reward für the kingtiger plz bring back the jagdtiger. its a monster and it works much better with terror than the ace.

so what does the community think about it?

Actually the Tiger Ace fits better with Terror than the KT does, which is why it was like that back in pre-OF times. It's fast and deadly, can strike at any time from the shadows and then disappear again. The universe is at peace now that the ace has returned to terror.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

yeah thats the reason why i thought it would better works in blitz because its faster than the nomal tiger.

maybe i think so because i started coh with OF^^
so i never saw the "old" tiger ace ;-)
and for me terror was always the haviest tanks, firestorm and v1 to bring the terror to the front^^

+1 even AI uses Tiger Ace   :P

The only thing I wish could happen is to buff TA a bit, it's underpowered now. And what I'd give to hear it's original voice: " Let's show them the true meaning of terror"... this was sooooooo epic  :D

We should really choose one of these threads to discuss what the TA needs in :). We've got two at the moment, this one and that one: http://easternfront.org/forums/index.php?topic=6017.0

Nope, you (meaning from post #4 :P) derailed the topic to this :P...

The OP talks about the unfairness of the 3rd. reward unit of Wehr being only a skin change and wants to change it for the reward of the BK Tiger giving back the Jagdtiger to Terror.

Or if not some alternatives for a real 4th reward unit for Wehr could be discussed.

Discussion in two topics is very annoying. Blacky, please make something to this second topic to focus main brainstorm about TA here.

We have few proposals:
1. Increase stats
2. Give it camo ability ( to perform hit and run attacks, using TA high speed)
3. Give some auras to discourage enemy
4. ???


About 1. - actually I'm totally against actions like this, I'd rather see some cool ability :)
2. Camo sounds fun, having ghost-like uber-Tiger tank... better than a Panther from tank operation ( can't remember name)
3. Auras IMO would fit the best, because Tiger tank is mostly a breakthrough weapon, so it should have some "breaking-through" abilities.

1) King Tiger has no special abilities/auras,
2) People prefer TA to KT,
1+2= TA needs nothing. It's fine as it is.

so when you all think tiger ace should stay at terror what do you think we can do? jagdtiger as a replace of 88er in defense?
