WARNO

Eugen makes exceptional titles and this is another, however this is the absolute worst of the worst for game disconnection due to packet loss etc. Aussie internet doesn't help however I haven't had major issues with any other Eugen titles, it's borderline unplayable in Warno. Eugen needs to get on top of this as it's a bit of a pisstake for such an established company to not have a better system to prevent players dropping from over 40-50% of games due to connections issues. A real shame as I'd be 100% supportive of the game if this wasn't an issue but the fundamentals are important. No other game gives me this problem.

DLC 噩梦。 买不完的DLC。每个dlc的新单位太少。价格很坑。建议直接凝聚力。

Horrible for new players completely unfun multiplayer taht punishes new and clueless players AI loading screens and cheating AI enemy

Fun gaem but AI slop loading screens and voicelines? Can you not afford some stock photos at least? Oh but you know too damn well selling overpiced DLCs for that to be the case. Even if it was the best game on earth I'd still give it a negative just because of stuff like this.

After a thousand hours in Wargame: Red Dragon (made it to Brigadier General) and the suicide of Broken Arrow (was #1 on the ladder), it's finally time to touch WARNO. I'm mainly a 1v1 player, but if you're thinking about buying this game for single-player — just don't. Buy BA or something else. WARNO has no cutscenes, no scripts, nothing like BA. It's basically just PvE against a stupid bot. Let's start with the few positive things. The game looks nice. After 20+ years of working with this engine, the developers have finally managed to achieve very good optimization while keeping the graphics solid. There are also plenty of good mods, and some of them are straight-up better than the vanilla game. You can add the best maps from other games, fix the balance, and add more units. Personally, I prefer playing a mod called WARNO Actual, which fixes a lot of the game's balance issues, including the division problem I'll mention below. 1. Terrible map balance. One side simply has shorter roads and has more cover. That's it. 2. Terrible division balance. Some divisions are complete trash and nobody plays them, while others are obvious solid picks. The main problem is that Eugen knew about this before they even started selling this crap. If a division has one or two hyped units — an F-117, some cool artillery, or a unique national aircraft — you can expect the rest of the division to be ♥♥♥♥ just so they can sell you those one or two units and make more divisons. Because of all these problems, you can sometimes predict who's going to win from the first second of the game. 3. Unfair ranked matchmaking. I'm a top 200 player this season, yet the game still matches me against some guy who literally started playing yesterday. How is that supposed to be fun for either of us? 4. Balance. Most of the people who made Red Dragon have left the company. Instead of the chess-like balance and carefully designed relationships between different unit classes — aircraft, tanks, infantry, etc. — we now get pathetic balance swings. Every patch, they basically nerf every damage-dealing method except one. So everyone plays artillery. Then artillery gets nerfed and everyone switches to MLRS. Then grenade launchers. Then KPVTs. And so on. The game is also way too casual. The TTK against infantry is absurdly high. A tank deals 1 damage, some crap sitting in a house gets 70% damage resistance, and somehow I end up outshooting an approaching M60 with a 3 HP SPG-9 squad. It takes him 10 shots to kill me, while I only need 7–8 shots to kill him. And that's a 3 HP SPG-9 squad. Don't even get me started on squads with 13, 14, or 16 men. As an actual tanker, I can say that this isn't just unrealistic — it's also extremely boring and kills any sense of dynamic gameplay. 5. No real support for the modding community. Just give us the option to download mods directly from the lobby without having to restart the entire game. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1611600/WARNO/# WARNO isn't a terrible game. The foundation is there, the graphics are good, the optimization is solid, and the modding community is doing some great work. But the balance philosophy, division design, matchmaking, and absurd infantry survivability completely ruin the competitive experience for me. At this point, mods are doing a better job of fixing WARNO than Eugen themselves. После тысячи часов в Wargame: Red Dragon (дошёл до звания бригадного генерала) и самоубийства Broken Arrow (был топ-1 ладдера) наконец-то пришло время потрогать WARNO. Я в основном играю 1 на 1, но если вы думаете купить эту игру ради одиночного режима — просто не надо. Купите BA или что-нибудь другое. В WARNO нет кат-сцен, скриптов — ничего похожего на BA. По сути, это просто PvE против тупого бота. Начнём с немногочисленных плюсов. Игра выглядит приятно. После 20+ лет работы с этим движком разработчикам наконец удалось добиться очень хорошей оптимизации, сохранив при этом достойную графику. Также здесь полно хороших модов, и некоторые из них откровенно лучше ванильной игры. Можно добавить лучшие карты из других игр, исправить баланс и добавить больше юнитов. Лично я предпочитаю играть с модом WARNO Actual, который исправляет множество проблем с балансом, включая проблему дивизий, о которой я расскажу ниже. 1. Ужасный баланс карт. У одной стороны просто короче дороги. Вот и всё. 2. Ужасный баланс дивизий. Некоторые дивизии — полный мусор, и ими никто не играет, в то время как другие являются очевидно хорошим выбором. Главная проблема в том, что Eugen знали обо всём этом ещё до того, как начали продавать это дерьмо. Если в дивизии есть один-два хайповых юнита — F-117, какая-нибудь крутая артиллерия или уникальный национальный самолёт, — можете ожидать, что вся остальная дивизия будет дерьмом просто для того, чтобы вам продать эти один-два юнита. Из-за всех этих проблем иногда можно предсказать победителя с первой секунды матча. 3. Нечестный подбор игроков в рейтинге. В этом сезоне я в топ-200, но игра всё равно подбирает мне в противники какого-нибудь парня, который буквально начал играть вчера. И как это вообще должно быть весело для кого-либо из нас? 4. Баланс. Большинство людей, которые делали Red Dragon, ушли из компании. Вместо шахматного баланса и тщательно выстроенных взаимосвязей между различными классами юнитов — авиацией, танками, пехотой и так далее — теперь мы получаем жалкие метания баланса из стороны в сторону. В каждом патче они, по сути, нерфят все способы нанесения урона, кроме одного. В итоге все играют через артиллерию. Потом артиллерию нерфят, и все переходят на РСЗО. Потом на автоматические гранатомёты. Потом на КПВТ. И так далее. Кроме того, игра слишком казуальная. TTK против пехоты просто абсурдно высокий. Танк наносит 1 единицу урона, какое-то дерьмо, сидящее в доме, получает 70% сопротивления урону, и каким-то образом в итоге я перестреливаю наступающий на меня M60 отрядом с СПГ-9 и 3 HP. Ему нужно 10 выстрелов, чтобы убить меня, в то время как мне достаточно 7–8 выстрелов, чтобы убить его. И это отряд СПГ-9 с 3 HP. Я уже молчу про отряды из 13, 14 или 16 человек. Как настоящий танкист, могу сказать, что это не просто нереалистично — это ещё и невероятно скучно и полностью убивает какую-либо динамику геймплея. 6. Никакой нормальной поддержки моддинг-сообщества. Просто дайте нам возможность скачивать моды прямо из лобби без необходимости перезапускать всю игру. WARNO — не ужасная игра. Основа у неё есть, графика хорошая, оптимизация отличная, а моддинг-сообщество делает действительно классные вещи. Но подход к балансу, дизайн дивизий, матчмейкинг и абсурдная живучесть пехоты полностью убивают для меня соревновательный опыт. На данный момент моды справляются с исправлением WARNO лучше, чем сами Eugen.

WARNO is a game made in... Yes everyone knows. This is purely a 10v10 perspective. I've also completed all achievements and done multiple runs of Army General and all Operations. (All achievements currently 49/49) Nothing is perfect not even WARNO. My previous experience with these type of games was Steel Division 2. I learned how to play Steel Division 2 in approx. 100 hours to be competitive and take advantage of the different terrain. Seemed very simple to determine the matchups and know the outcomes. WARNO does not do that. Anyone that says that is lying to you. The amount of times I've seen leopard 1s fight a T80 and somehow win is uncommon but happens. I'm not just talking about sideshots. EUGEN looked at XCOM 2 and decided RNG should lie to you on paper. The Game: Balance is currently the best its been for 10v10 in a very long time. There are certain divisions that play in very specific ways, and each update seems to add a new element to learn and understand. Personally the arty rework could use some more polishing in terms of timings for different units. (towed vs self-propelled). Overall, very positive change for the health of the game in promoting more skill gameplay or skill based decision gameplay. There are some that state AFK Counterbattery is an effective tool, however is itself a skill based decision, investing ~400 points instead of a frontline for artillery youre going to forget about to get counter batteried is a choice. As someone who will routinely play and push a zone until im in their spawn with no opposition in 10v10 without purchasing a single artillery unit... Isn't based on the zone being empty. Based on their choices on how they alocate their points. Spending your points is a skill based decision. Some have choice paralysis and float more than a normal amount of points. When you can find a balance of throwing slop into the front, and minimizing losses of higher value material you start to maximize the momentum of pushes. Counter battery investments can work in much the same way as throwaway infantry can in terms of points allocation. The Community: Is like playing minesweeper without the numbers. You're going to find some amazing community members that are or try to be positive all the time. You're going to find Burkina Faso RP speeches at the start. You'll see ALL KINDS of portraits. Some of the most hilarious names of all time. And those edgy military larpers that think WW2 was cool because they spoke German and waved at eachother. Aside from personalities, SKILL. Talking about player skill in 10v10 almost doesnt matter. There are so many archetypes that actually work together and bizarre deployment choices leads to chaos. Strategic problem solving is the itch that gets scratched for me when that happens. Generally speaking most players are passive. They will move up to a zone at or just behind the frontline and sit there. Any sort of communication with randoms is another RNG gift from life. Ask, tell, intimidate, mediate, meditate, mastur... you get the picture. None of these communicate well with people who just want to do their own thing. Which can be weird when you're entire team... that you work with... to control the same area... dont want to communicate. Communities: There are a number of communities that bring a positive aspect to the game. I'd be biased to say BED clan as one, but i'll say it as overall positivity and fun times is our main focus. We try to play against eachother when we reach about 5-6 or above. One to get games. Two, we know our opponents are tough. Seal clubbing, while an important Canadian hunting tradition in isolated areas in the north, is not entirely fun after 2000 hours. Nightshift and Helljumper are two hosted servers that are run and modded by a great team. I highly recommend jumping over to the Nightshift server. They are literally pushing the game forward by introducing new map concepts, new map packs, and generating themed events. I have 3000+ hours in this game. I've tried to summarize key points while I wait for my buddies in the next round. So even when not playing warno. I have not committed this much time to another game since World of Warcraft. I have purchased every division, played every division in 10v10 minimum of 10 times. 100 for about 10... Sooooooooo Yeah Not perfect 10/10. So maybe like a perfect 5/7
