Hello everyone, and welcome to the Call of War unofficial Comprehensive Suggestion List.
The goal of this thread is to list everything that has been suggested on the forums, and categorize them based on what players want. For now, there will be a simple 3 category system, but in the future I may rank some items depending on how important they are, or the frequency of discussion.
Items in the "Positives" section have a general support from most players, and some are very likely to be added in the future. Items in the "Negatives" section have been discussed and have been found to be a feature that should not be added to Call of War. Items in the "Undecided" category have mixed reviews and probably need more discussion to determine whether the majority of players want them or not. So, without further ado...

I'm fighting in some huge naval warfare right now and I think some adjustments could be made :
- Naval bombers. They get killed by subs, even though they are supposed to be a good sub counter. Subs, which are already very cheap and powerful, should not be able to inflict severe damage to airplanes, especially naval bombers. Naval bombers also have a really hard time against destroyers. This makes the unit close to being useless. I also read at quite a few places that a lot of experienced players don't put much fate in naval bombers.
- Troops landing. It seems impossible to cover a landing with warships. The landing troops just get shredded by airplanes with ships standing idly one dot away. Also, artillery fire is just too devastating on landing forces. Its almost impossible to land against lvl 1 artilleries without a few battleships. Artillery damage to ships should at least come at higher levels, since it is a very effective and cheap way of slaughtering landing forces.
Agree with naval bombers, really just subs defensise should be lowered, but this not a major issue, as it is, I send a few naval bombers, and tear the subs outta the water
Troops landing,
uf u use ur BS u can maybe kill the bloddy art, once CVs come, u can clear the air
or land elsewhere, and try capture the airfirleds before u land ur main force
be creative

Upon further consideration,
I must agree with Tubo about the submarines ability to defend against aircraft.
I can NOT recall EVER seeing,or hearing of a sub equipped with AA guns.Some did have a deck-mounted gun,however,this was to attack merchant freight and could NOT to raised high enough to attack a plane in flight.
The means to defend a sub from aerial attack....was to submerge.
Then,we get into Anti-Submarine Warfare.Another debate entirely.
While on the subject of subs...I'd like to mention their ability to do hit-and-run attacks on shipping.Yeah,this is a Different sort of attack than your 'usual' military engagement as the attacker CAN slip away with little or no retaliation.
They aren't "locked in mortal combat until only one remains".
Yep,this would mean introducing NEW mechanics into the game for a Single unit.Turn subs into the High risk-High reward unit they Were.
I am,I'm me.

The single most important suggestion for this list:
Please, please, pretty please!: GET THAT 'SCUTTLE UNITS' OPTION DONE !!!
It is on the lists of suggestions and needed functions since ages....
Having been away for almost a week, my country is flooded with AA and other units I would never have build and which eat all my food and drink my oil...

OR: make a 'cotton-balling' option...
Click a button - just as barracks and harbours - to deactivate.
A deactivated unit is parked, can't fight or move, and as such does not consume.

Thought it was moth-balling?

Most German U-boats had 37mm AA gun.

Most if not all nations subs had AA guns, so i don't see why it wouldn't be in the game.

I don't know why you're saying this, I know that. I'm backing you up. The German 37mm was two guns stuck together, so can qualify as two AA guns, like I said.

I think that tanks should have the same speed as ships because the Sherman DD could swim a little.
17 Mar 2016, 14:09

I wouldnt take the Sherman on a cruise around the Atlantic,

*Loads rifle* I dare you to say that again.1st not all tanks were modified to survive in (some) water like the sherman DD. Also those that were were not in anyway seaworthy and so would be loaded onto transports.

It was a joke.... Now that I think about it, it does sound like a great idea. I mean, look the lvl 3 heavy tank, the Maus! That thing swam like a duck!
17 Mar 2016, 20:31
I see, i feel better now. Well they did create a system for the maus to cross a river, since it was too heavy for most bridges. Another Maus at shore would pump air to the maus crossing the river via a pipe and the maus would drive along the riverbed.

Exactly! It only makes sense that it should be able to cross that Atlantic! Just put on a snorkel and some lead pontoons (so it doesn't break when shot).
