Advantages of 1.5

Advantages for players or for company?

If for players, for young or for working and players with family in RL?

Game mechanics advantages for all are:

1. More realistic research tree.

2. More differences between doctrines. Wich are in classic version only different by skin.

3. More realistic upgrade system.

4. More realistic generation of militar units.

5. Fixed ingame world market.

6. Reballancing of economy on historical map. Every country on 25er has now really valueble chances for viktory.

7. Rebalanced range of ranged units.

8. Small adjust against swarming by airforces.

9. Adjustment of doomstacks.

Advantages for newcomer and for player with overdimensionized online time.

1. Everything is quicklier than in classical version.

2. Surplus on ressources.

3. Surplus on units in early game, because of surplus of ressourses and short recruit times.

4. Rebalanced research times.

5. Power up of airforces, except swarming.

It is not full list. But enough for quick respond.

I think it would be a much shorter list to name the disadvantages.

I can't think of any, really. I would never go back to 'classic'.

Enjoy your empty wallet then NoobNoobTrain. 1.5 is 1.0 on crack, not very user friendly at all. The sheer game speed adds tons to most peoples already stressful daily life. Apart from that it's not CoW, it's something completely different.

In order for companys to survive this is the way it has to go sadly. I can't even begin to count all the mobile games that were great to begin with that turned into money grabbing, hideous copies of its former self. CoW was a pretty pleasant surprise when i found it but it took only a few months before it was ruined for me this time. Actually, longer than most other games I've played, save for Astronest which i played for 5 years, and it's by far one of the best strategy games I've played on mobile. But that game is totally ruined now aswell. Oh well. Onto the next one i guess. Because believe me, this is just the beginning of the decline. Abandon ship before it's sucked both you and your money completely in.

For starters, why is my army of 6 infantry and 6 light tanks, all at half HP running around the map using 100% of resources to maintain it and fighting at 50% efficiency with a 10+ stack penalty? Realistically, after a battle units will die but not in 1.5. The whole stack just keeps fighting with a penalty and at decreased capacity. You literally have to get them killed off to get the manpower and other resources back. That is 100% dumb.

1.5 isn't faster, it is just more complicated with silly resources assigned to units. What rare resource is needed exactly to make a plane or tank? The various ranges on the aircraft are dumb and don't make any sense.

The fact that we get TWO new artillery units but now all FOUR never shoot anything other than 50km from level 1 to max level. That is not realistic either. Arty should hit farther as better units are researched just like planes can fly farther.

The 10 unit stacking penalty is dumb, 20 would have been much better with previous SBDE, especially since all arty shoot the same range. In all wars, you could siege a city from a safe distance...not in 1.5. I could go on but I just laugh at how bad Bytro screwed up a simple/fun game.

I like complicated games!

The general trend in gaming these days is to dumb down everything. Probably to win the US market.

I like it when a game dares develop into the opposition direction!
